Eurobattery Minerals AB (Nordic Growth Market: “BAT”; “the Company”) a growth company in the mining and exploration industry with the vision to help Europe become self-sufficient in ethical battery minerals, today announces mineral test results conducted by SGS in Canada on the nickel, cobalt, copper Castriz prospect in Galicia, northwest Spain. In the larger Corcel project, Castriz is one of three primary prospects together with Monte Mayor and Monte Castello.

Key points:

Mineral identification and characterisation studies completed on mineralised samples from Castriz Ni-Cu-Co prospect at the Corcel project.
The results of the analysis conducted by SGS Lakefield in Canada confirms the economical grade nickel sulphide findings in the Corcel project and further confirms the broader prospectively of the Castriz project area.

Seven samples from four diamond drill holes completed in 2019 were submitted to SGS Lakefield (Canada) for mineral identification and characterisation using QEMSCAN (Quantitative Evaluation of Materials by Scanning Electron Microscopy), chemical analysis and EPMA (electron microprobe analysis). The majority of samples were selected from the main mineralised nickel sulphide intervals previously confirmed by geochemical assaying (Fig. 1)[1][2]. The objective of the study was to determine the mineral abundances and high-level analysis of liberation characteristics of sulphide and gangue (waste) minerals to aid with future mineral testing programmes.“We are encouraged by the mineral test results which confirm high-value nickel sulphide minerals as dominating asset in the Castriz deposit. Our attention will now turn to identifying ways to maximise the value of our discovery by identifying potential massive sulphide zones and assessing the optimal mineral processing option for recovering the sulphides. The Corcel Project holds an important position in our project pipeline and we look forward to unlocking further value from this project in the future,” said Roberto García Martínez, CEO of Eurobattery Minerals.

Figure 1. Plan view of the Castriz prospect showing highest priority areas for further investigation (blue boxes). Drill hole intersections show nickel-in-sulphide assay results.

The Project

Samples submitted for analysis were sourced from mineralised intervals from the “Northern” and “Western” anomalies (Figs. 1). The mineral studies determined the predominant Ni-sulphide mineral to be pentlandite ([Fe,Ni]9S8) with very minor millerite (NiS) and violarite (Fe2+Ni3+2S4). Silicate minerals, iron oxides and chromite contain relatively low nickel concentrations. The main silicates minerals include serpentine, pyroxenes, amphibole and chlorite. The Company is pleased that nickel concentrations in silicate minerals is low as this variety if nickel is refractory and physically non-recoverable. Furthermore, BAT is encouraged that the main Ni-bearing sulphide mineral is pentlandite as it is amenable to the conventional mineral recovery process of froth flotation. Initial nickel and copper mineral characteristics indicate that liberation will likely improve with decreasing grind size. Additional experimental studies are required to further understand mineral recovery parameters.

Next steps

The Company is encouraged by the latest evidence on the presence of nickel sulphides at Castriz which further confirms the broader prospectivity of the project area. BAT is assessing the latest mineral analysis results in relation to potential economic implications and development scenarios. Both bulk tonnage (low grade, large tonnage) and selective mining (high grade, smaller tonnage) strategies are being evaluated.

The Company is currently engaging with geophysical consultants and contractors to assess alternative geophysical methods, including electromagnetic (EM) surveys, that will preferentially image denser accumulations of sulphide minerals. Such metal accumulations are likely to have compelling financial metrics and be amenable to lower tonnage, selective mining methods.

All future capital intensive work programmes proposed at Corcel are being assessed in the context of the Company’s larger project portfolio. The Company remains focused on advancing its near-term production projects.

Eurobattery Minerals AB (Nordic Growth Market: “BAT”; “the Company”) a growth company in the mining and exploration industry with the vision to help Europe become self-sufficient in ethical battery minerals, today announces that Vulcan Hautalampi Oy (“VHOy”) has commenced the Environmental Impact Assessment (“EIA”) procedure for its 100% owned Hautalampi nickel (Ni), cobalt (Co), copper (Cu) project (“Hautalampi”; “the Project”) in Outokumpu, eastern Finland. Eurobattery Minerals has the option to acquire 100% of VHOy in a staged acquisition.

Key points:

Hautalampi Ni-Co-Cu EIA procedure commenced for combined mining operations and processing plant to produce EV battery chemicals.
Environmental permit for underground mining and off-site toll treatment of ore still valid.
Expert Finnish environmental consulting and planning company Envineer Oy commissioned to deliver the EIA on behalf of VHOy. Envineer has been involved in most mining related EIAs and permit applications in the region.
EIA procedure consists of two parts: the EIA programme and EIA report.
The EIA programme will be prepared for the mining operations, processing plant and battery chemicals plant. It will include the relevant production sub-options and describes the current state of the environment related to the project, how the environmental impacts will be assessed and a plan on how the effects will be investigated.
As a part of the EIA procedure, a preliminary consultation meeting has been conducted between the key authorities and VHOy. Involving stakeholders in the assessment work is also an essential part of the EIA procedure. To address this, VHOy will convene an EIA-procedure monitoring group.
The EIA report describes the mining operation and processing options, describing the results of the assessment specified in the programme phase and evaluates the technical viability of the project from the environmental point of view.
VHOy anticipates the EIA procedure will be completed in less than 12 months and will be followed immediately with the Environmental Permit Application.

“We are incredibly pleased that Vulcan Hautalampi Oy has commenced the EIA procedure so quickly. The EIA is an important step in the process of preparing a fully-fledged mine and battery chemicals plant. This brings Eurobattery Minerals closer to becoming a supplier of ethically sourced and traceable minerals and chemicals critical for the EV industry”, said Roberto García Martínez, CEO of Eurobattery Minerals.

VHOy (aka FinnCobalt), has informed the Company that the process for advancing the EIA for combined mining and processing at Hautalampi has commenced. It is the Company’s vision to produce Cu-concentrate and either Ni-Co-concentrate or even high value battery Ni-Co-chemicals suitable for electric vehicle (EV) battery manufacturing. This would fulfil the Company’s strategy of being a foundation member of the EV battery value chain in Europe.

The purpose of the EIA procedure is to generate information on the environmental impacts of a project, facilitate the consideration of environmental issues in planning and decision-making processes, and give the public and other stakeholders opportunities to participate in and affect these processes. An EIA must be conducted for all mining projects and is defined by law (EIA Act and Decree [227/2017]). The developer is responsible for investigating and assessing the environmental impacts of the project.

A preliminary consultation meeting has been held between key authorities and VHOy. The involvement of key stakeholders throughout the assessment process is a prerequisite and VHOy looks forward to engaging with them throughout the procedure. VHOy will convene an EIA-procedure monitoring group to facilitate the flow of information.

EIA procedure

The EIA procedure forms part of project planning and is conducted before any decisions are made to officially approve a proposed project. The EIA has two main phases resulting in the publication of an EIA programme and an EIA report. Arrangements for participation play an important role in both phases (Figure 1). The EIA programme will be published and a public hearing will be organised. All relevant stakeholders have a right to give their view of the planned EIA. The EIA procedure concludes with a view and justified conclusion provided by the coordinating environmental authority.

The most essential steps in the EIA procedure include: an assessment of the current state of the environment; definitions of various project alternatives, assessments of their environmental impacts, and a comprehensive picture of the impacts of the project and its implementation alternatives, presented together with assessments of the scale and significance of such impacts; plans for the mitigation of detrimental impacts; and the publication of an accurate and coherent EIA report. It must assess impacts on nature, human beings and the built environment and cover exceptional situations, environmental accidents, and means to mitigate adverse impacts.

Important information

Eurobattery Minerals AB (Nordic Growth Market: “BAT”; “the Company”) a growth company in the mining and exploration industry with the vision to help Europe become self-sufficient in ethical battery minerals, today announces that Vulcan Hautalampi Oy (“VHOy”) is about to commence drilling at the Hautalampi nickel (Ni), cobalt (Co), copper (Cu) project (“Hautalampi”; “the project”) in Outokumpu, eastern Finland. The Company has the option to acquire 100% of VHOy in a staged acquisition for an aggregate consideration of €6.05m in shares and cash.

Key points:

Diamond drilling at the Hautalampi Ni-Co-Cu mine development to commence Monday

13
^th July.
Phase 1 drilling programme to consist of 45 – 50 drill holes for approximately 4,500 – 5,000m aimed at increasing the Mineral Resource base.
Drilling to target “Blue Sky” mineralisation to the northeast and along strike of the existing Hautalampi Mineral Resource Estimate of

3.2Mt @ 0.43% Ni, 0.35% Cu and 0.12% Co.
Blue Sky zone measures 2,080m in length and 470m in width, offering the potential for a substantial increase in resource tonnage.
A minimum exploration target of

2.8 – 4.5Mt at 0.28 – 0.36% Ni has been identified within 40m of historical drilling. Substantial resource upside of more than 6.5Mt has been identified within 100m of historical drilling.
Approximately two thirds of the Blue Sky zone to be tested during phase 1 drilling, targeting the most prospective areas over an area of 720m in strike and 320m in width.
Drilling to target the

shallowest mineralisation in the Blue Sky areas which is potentially amenable to low cost, open pit mining.

The 100% owner and manager of the Hautalampi Project, VHOy, have informed the Company that a diamond drill rig and crew are scheduled to arrive at the site on Monday 13
^th July with drilling to commence immediately. The drilling contractor, Northdrill Oy,
www.northdrill.fi/en is an experienced operator in Finland and previously worked on the project in 2017-2018.

– We are incredibly pleased and satisfied for this smooth and quick start-up of the drilling campaign at Hautalampi, said Roberto García Martínez, CEO of Eurobattery Minerals
. Desktop studies of historical drilling and the geological model has recognised the area for resource expansion is greater than previously identified. This is an exciting time for both companies as we fast-track the project to production and we look forward to seeing the results of the drilling over the coming months.

The Project

The Hautalampi Project is located at the same site as the famous Keretti (Outokumpu) copper mine (Figure 1). Approximately 28.5Mt @ 3.8% Cu was mined at Keretti from 1912 – 1989. The Hautalampi Ni-Co-Cu orebody is located parallel and above the exploited copper deposit. Existing surface and underground infrastructure, including a high voltage power line, concrete foundations and roads, provide significant location advantages to the project. Approximately €10-15M has been invested in Hautalampi by previous owners, including 22,000m of core drilling, a decline and additional underground mine development works (2,100m), mineral resource and reserve estimates, multiple mineral processing studies and a feasibility study. Previous investment enables VHOy and BAT to fast-track the project to an updated feasibility study status.

Figure 1. Location map of Hautalampi Project, eastern Finland.

Drilling Programme

The phase 1 drilling programme has been planned to cover approximately two thirds of the prospective Blue Sky zone. Approximately 45 – 50 drill holes have been planned for 4,500 – 5,000m (Figure 2). Drilling will be undertaken by Northdrill Oy, an experienced contractor with substantial experience in the project area. The drill rig is well conditioned to operate year round, including winter (Figure 3). Drilling rates are anticipated to be approximately 1,500m per month. The Company plans to mobilise additional drill rigs to expedite the completion of phase 1 drilling.Drill holes will be spaced along sections to infill the historical drilling which was completed on 80m sections, thereby providing total coverage at 40m section spacing. Each drill hole will be spaced at 40m within each section. The mineralised horizons in the zones being targeted are relatively shallow and appear to have the most promising metal grades. Drill holes will be angled at approximately -80° to intersect the lodes perpendicular. Drill hole depths will range from 50 – 190m, with an average depth of approximately 110m
