will be formed, and Erin Ventures and Temas Resources will become associated
as joint venturers to further advance the Piskanja Project.

Temas’ progress on this joint development agreement and look forward to

indicated mineral resource of 7.8 million tonnes, averaging 31.0 per cent
boric oxide (B(2)O(3)), and an inferred resource of 3.4 million tonnes,
averaging 28.6 per cent B(2)O(3). Calculated in accordance with the Canadian
Institute of Mining Definition Standards on Mineral Resources and Reserves
(“CIM Standards”) as disclosed in Erin Ventures’ report titled
“Mineral Resource Estimate Update on the Piskanja Borate Project, Serbia,
October 2016 – Amended February 28, 2019” prepared by SRK Consulting (UK)

acid, which is used to toughen and increase heat resistance in Pyrex.
