Statements as to Mineral Reserves and Mineral Resources are further qualifiedby the language continued under “Technical Information” below. All statements, other than those of historical fact, which address activities, events, outcomes, results, developments,performance or achievements that the Company anticipates or expects may or will occur in the future (in whole o in part) should be considered forward-looking information.

Forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors which may cause the actual results, performance or achievements ofCaldas to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause actual results to differmaterially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements are described under the caption "Risk Factors" in the Company's annual information form for the financial year endedDecember 31, 2019 dated as of August 17, 2020 and filed at www.sedar.com.

Accordingly, the reader is cautioned not to place undue reliance on forward-looking statements. The forward-looking information contained in thispresentation is expressly qualified by the cautionary statement.
Technical InformationA Preliminary Feasibility Study is a comprehensive study of a range of options for the technical and economic viability of a mineral project that has advanced to a stage where a preferredmining method, in the case of underground mining, or the pit configuration, in the case of an open pit, is established and an effective method of mineral processing is determined. It includesa financial analysis based on reasonable assumptions on any modifying factors and the evaluation of any other relevant factors which are sufficient for a Qualified Person, actingreasonably, to determine if all or part of the Mineral Resource may be converted to a Mineral Reserve at the time of reporting. A Preliminary Feasibility Study is at a lower confidence levelthan a Feasibility Study.
The Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves described in this presentation were estimated using the Canadian Institute of Mining Metallurgy and Petroleum (“CIM”) Standards on MineralResources and Reserves, Definitions and Guidelines prepared by the CIM Standing Committee on Reserve Definitions and adopted by the CIM Council and incorporated by reference inNational Instrument 43-101 – Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects (“NI 43-101”). Mineral Resources that are not Mineral Reserves do not have demonstrated economic viability.The estimate of Mineral Resources may be materially affected by environmental, permitting, legal, title, taxation, socio-political, marketing, or other relevant issues. The Inferred MineralResource in this estimate has a lower level of confidence than that applied to an Indicated Mineral Resource and must not be converted to a Mineral Reserve. There is no certainty thatInferred Mineral Resources will be converted to the Measured and Indicated Resource categories through further drilling, or into Mineral Reserves, once economic considerations are applied.As such, readers are cautioned not to assume that part or all of an Inferred Mineral Resource exists, or is economically or legally mineable.
For all Marmato Project drilling results described in this presentation, verification by the Qualified Person included a review of the quality assurance and quality control samples, and reviewof the applicable assay databases and assay certificates. The core samples were prepared by SGS Laboratories Ltd (ISO 9001:2008) at their laboratory in Medellin, and assayed in theirlaboratory in Segovia, Colombia. Gold was assayed by 30 g fire assay with atomic absorption spectrophotometer (“AAS”) finish. Samples over 10.0 g/t gold were re-assayed by 30 g fireassay with gravimetric finish. Silver was assayed by aqua regia digestion and AAS finish. Blank, standard and duplicate samples were routinely inserted for quality assurance and qualitycontrol.
