Irving is uniquely qualified to explore in Japan: . . . . • Mostly Japan-based team members. Mitsui Mineral Development Engineering Co., Ltd. ("MINDECO") is our lead contractor. Built a long-standing relationship with Japan Oil, Gas and Metals National Corporation ("JOGMEC"). Developed close connections with many Japanese mining houses. Established strong relations with the Japanese academic community. Earned a good report with Japanese government authorities. Developed excellent relations with local communities. 2023 | Irving Resources CNX: IRV | OTCQX: IRVRF 6#7Gold Mining in Japan Since the beginning of the Edo period (1601), over 20 Moz of gold have been produced from Japanese gold mines...the top producers being Hishikari, Sado, Konomai and Yamagano. All of these mines exploit high-grade epithermal deposits. Hishikari mine (Sumitomo Metal Mining Co. Ltd.), Japan's largest gold mine, has produced approximately 9.0 Moz Au (as of December, 2021) since 1985 at head grades of approximately 30 gpt Au. reserves and resources remain. Sado Kinzan (Mitsubishi Materials Considerable Corporation), produced 2.51 Moz Au and 74 Moz Ag over a continuous mine life of 388 years beginning in 1601. Grades averaged 5.2 gpt Au and 153 gpt Ag. Konomai mine (Sumitomo Metal Mining Co. Ltd.), produced 2.35 Moz Au and 38.6 Moz Ag between its discovery in 1915 and mine closure in 1973. 2023 | Irving Resources CNX: IRV | OTCQX: IRVRF Sado Shikoku Kyushu Hishikari Konomai Honshu Hokkaido Tokyo A Kushikino N 800 km 7#8. . Modern Gold Mining in Japan Hishikari mine is the largest active gold mine in Japan. Gold production is about 225 Koz per year. A head grade of 30 gpt Au is achieved by ore sorting, optical ore sorters used for small pieces of rock and hand labor used for sorting larger pieces (right). Hishikari has no mill. High-grade ore is shipped to Sumitomo Metal Mining's smelters where it is utilized as smelter flux. Gold and silver are recovered during smelting and refining of copper resulting in high recoveries and low processing costs. Similarly, silica-rich gold ores ("keisan-ko") from the Akeshi mine (Mitsui Kushikino Kozan Co. Ltd.) and Kasuga and Iwato mines (Nippon Mining) are utilized for smelter flux. The Kushikino mine complex (Mitsui Kushikino Kozan Co. Ltd.) is the only operating gold mine utilizing a CN mill for processing. Gold-bearing industrial waste and low grade ore (~18 gpt Au) from Hishikari are also treated at this facility. 2023 | Irving Resources CNX: IRV | OTCQX: IRVRF SAN BAR ンプル 「指差呼称の励行 FAYRENE RESE Baster 8#9Modern Gold Mining in Japan Japan is an environmentally conscientious country. Although mining is still active, it must be conducted in the utmost responsible manner. Tolerance for large open pit mining and commensurate milling complexes and tailings dams is low. Hishikari is an underground mine with a very small surface footprint (upper right). Ore is shipped offsite and waste rock is either returned underground or crushed and used for road aggregate. This is the ideal Japanese mine. Sumitomo Metal Mining Co. Ltd. has done an exquisite job reclaiming the Konomai mine site to its native state (lower right). Such responsibility is what the Japanese people expect from modern mining companies. 2023 | Irving Resources CNX: IRV | OTCQX: IRVRF 9#10Smelter Flux Industry in Japan • Mining silica-rich gold ores and using them for smelter flux has a very long history in Japan. • Each year, Japanese smelters require many hundreds of thousands of tonnes of silica flux. Mitsui, Sumitomo Metal Mining, Sumitomo Corporation, Nippon Mining (JX), Mitsubishi, Dowa and Toho Zinc operate smelters. Silica flux from Japanese gold mines (Hishikari, Akeshi, Kushikino) is currently used in some smelters. Others rely on silica from various other domestic and international sources. Demand for new sources of silica-rich gold ores is strong. 2023 | Irving Resources CNX: IRV | OTCQX: IRVRF 10#11Smelters in Japan Smelter operated by a company Kosaka (Dowa) Cu, Pb, Sn lijima (Dowa) Zn Mine Smelter operated by a joint venture (main investor) Naoshima (Mitsubishi) Cu Tamano (PPC) Cu Takehara (Mitsui) Pb, Sn Chigirishima (Toho zinc) Pb Hikoshima (Mitsui) Zn Saganoseki (PPC) Cu Hyuga (Sumitomo) Ferronickel Hishikari (Sumitomo) Au Ikuno (Mitsubishi) Kamioka (Mitsui) Sn Pb, Zn Oeyama (Nippon yakin) Ferronickel Hachinohe (Taiheiyo) Ferronickel Hachinohe (Mitsui) Zn, Pb Hosokura (Mitsubishi) Pb Onahama (Mitsubishi) Cu Onahama (Toho zinc) Zn Hitachi (Nippon mining) Cu, Sn Annaka (Toho zinc) Zn Shisaka (Sumitomo) ZnO Besshi (Sumitomo) Ni Matsuzaka (Vale) Ni oxide Harima (Sumitomo) Ni sulfate Toyo (Besshi) (Sumitomo) Cu PPC (Pan Pacific Copper) Nippon mining > Mitsui JV 2023 | Irving Resources CNX: IRV | OTCQX: IRVRF 11#12Irving's Business Model Irving recognizes the sensitivity of mining gold in Japan and has developed a strategy to honor this. Criteria Irving uses to select exploration targets include: . • High-silica, precious metal-rich veins that are suitable as smelter flux. No milling will be required. Deposits with low sulfur and deleterious elements including As, Sb and Hg, thus making them environmentally friendly and suitable as smelter flux. Deposits that will have a small surface footprint when mined. Ideally near shipping facilities enabling easy transport to Japanese smelters. Low impact on communities, cultural heritage and environmentally sensitive areas. Through modern exploration, Irving sees opportunity to rekindle gold mining in Japan. 2023 | Irving Resources CNX: IRV | OTCQX: IRVRF 12#13Low Sulfidation Epithermal ("LSE") Veins This is the classic hot spring epithermal vein model in which gold and silver precipitate in response to boiling as geothermal waters rise toward surface (right).
