GEMSTONES FOUND

5

We have a mine to market proposition with a unique assemblage of precious stones in a unique locality:

• The Carmel Sapphire™ - only found in Mount Carmel (Primary source) and Kishon Mid-Reach (alluvial/secondary deposit) in Northern Israel

• Carmeltazite, found in the Carmel Sapphire™, recognised as a new mineral by the IMA.

• The stone is a registered brand and has unique qualities, as well as considerable potential as gemstones

• Natural Moissanite™ – largest quantity and size found globally to date

EXPLORATION & PROSPECTING PERMITS

8

Exploration targets divided into three segments:

• Proximal-Reach: Primary sources

• Mid-Reach: Secondary sources (accessible)

• Distal-Reach: Secondary sources

Mid-Reach divided into three zones at different stages

of development:

• Zone 1 – Prospecting Licence + Technical Economic

Evaluation (TEE)

• Zone 2 – Partly explored

• Zone 3 – Still to be delineated, exploration target level

• Company follows the internationally recognised SAMREC

2016 Code

• Coloured gemstones found throughout the exploration and

prospecting areas

• Initial focus on Kishon Mid-Reach deposit where the

exploration of an accessible placer formation is most

advanced

Exploration and prospecting permits covering 60,000 hectares centred on Mount Carmel and the Kishon river catchment.Shefa Yamim granted its first Prospecting Licence, over its alluvial exploration target, the Kishon Mid-Reach Zone 1 Project.

• Commenced Technical Economic Evaluation Report, which is in an advanced stage

• Completed 14 bulk sample campaign, recovered 6,384 tonnes sampling with 9,778.15 carats produced to date

• Estimated total content grade of 153.16 cpht

• Granted prospecting licence 869C9 covering 252 Dunams at the Kishon Mid-Reach Zone 1 – taking it one step closer to a mining licence

• Started planning and regulatory procedures to advance the area into trial mining

• Targeting trial mining and production in the next two years (subject to funding and good exploration results)

GEMSTONES – A GROWING MARKET

11

*Gemval Aggregate index (GVA) is calculated as a total value of 26

standard specimens of gemstone, (GVA basis set) and represents

the overall pricing trend in the jewellery market. We have monitored

GVA values since 1st July 2005. The current value of GVA is

measured in %, as a ratio of current GVA value to the initial value

on July 2005

• A growing market - US$2.4bn to US$6bn in the past five years

• Prices have outperformed diamonds circa. 37% since 2005

• Gemstone market estimated to reach US$10bn in the next 10 years

bulk types) are processed through the plants

at the Akko operational site where final

recovery is also undertaken in the on-site

laboratory.

The laboratory follows internationally

recognised procedures and standards for

mineral recovery, sorting and identification.

Uses (ArcGIS) for modelling with additional

analyses undertaken using voxler®, strater®

and surfer®.
