Rainbow Rare Earths Ltd.
STRONG FUNDAMENTALS
3
The fundamentals of the Gakara project remain strong –notwithstanding short term operational challenges
Grade
At TREO of 47-67%, Gakara is by
far the highest-grade mine in the
world
Potential world-class deposit
• Over 1,000 occurrences of Rare
Earths (REs) discovered within
39-km2 licence area due to be
explored further
• JORC Resource in Dec 2018 will
incorporate only a small
proportion of the total licence area
Low-capex asset
Brought into production for
just US$11m
Asset in production
Only producing mine in Africa, one
of only two listed RE producers
outside China
RE prices expected to
respond to demand drivers
• Demand for NdPr in particular set
to rise in line with growth in
production of EVs
• Limited production capacity in
market medium-term, particularly
outside China
Downstream separation
planned with TechMet
Will significantly reduce discount to
basket price and improve margins

Rainbow Rare Earths Ltd.
FUNDAMENTAL GROWTH AND VALUE STRATEGY
5
THREE ELEMENTS: NEAR-TERM PRODUCTION; RESOURCE GROWTH; AND
DOWNSTREAM EXPANSION
Near-term production and cashflow maximisation
Expand resource base
Develop downstream
separation
2018 2019 2020 2021 2022 2023 2024
Current strategy▶ Operate 2+ mine areas in parallel▶ Optimise efficiency of operations▶ Increase production and sales to 250-300tpm in
the near-term to become EBITDA positive▶ Expand operations into new permit areas
Resource expansion▶ Identify large deposit or deposits to enable step
change in production to 10,000tpa or more
Develop separation capability▶ Investigate separation capability for Gakara
concentrate with feasibility study to be completed with additional funding from TechMet
▶ Capex will depend on scale and technique but may be <US$50m
▶ Would reduce discount to metal content price considerably from c.70% levels at present

GASAGWE & MURAMBI MINING AREAS
7
First operational mining area
▶ Small mechanical fleet strips overburden
▶ Manual extraction of high grade vein material
▶ Consistent high grade ore has supplied all of Rainbow’s production to date although veins can be unpredictable
GASAGWE
Rainbow’s next mining area
▶ Vein structure very similar to Gasagwe
▶ Lab tested vein samples contain high grade TREOs at 48-60%
▶ Trenching suggests vein extension may be up to 200m, approximately twice the length at Gasagwe
▶ First production expected before end 2018

Rainbow Rare Earths Ltd.
COOPERATION AGREEMENT WITH TECHMET
▶ JV agreement whereby TechMet will fund up to US$3m for a full
Definitive Feasibility Study (“DFS”) for a downstream rare earth
separation business, with the aim of processing Rainbow’s high
grade concentrate into separated rare earths
▶ Separated rare earth oxides sell for a significantly higher price
than Rainbow’s concentrate product, which typically includes a
processing discount of approximately 70% on metal content
▶ The agreement enables Rainbow to benefit from TechMet’s
extensive network of contacts and access to financing as well
as rapidly accelerating plans to commence downstream
processing of Rainbow’s concentrate
12
DEAL ENABLES RAPID ACCELERATION OF DOWNSTREAM BUSINESS INVESTIGATION
TechMet Ltd
▶ A private company investing in projects producing,
processing and recycling strategic “technology metals”
▶ Led by prominent mining industry CEO Brian Menell
▶ Interests in producing or development assets covering
lithium, tin, nickel, cobalt and tungsten with projects
across a number of African countries and in North and
South America

EXPLORATION SUCCESS
Company photo of Kiyenzi (left) and Gasagwe (right)
Over 1,000 instances of rare earth mineralisation have been
discovered over an area of 39 km2, which points to a potentially
world-class rare earth deposit, particularly in view of the
exceptional grades.
![Page 15: ONE OF THE WORLD’S RICHEST PRODUCING RARE EARTH …rainbowrareearths.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/Corporate... · thyssenkrupp Materials Trading handles all sales negotiations](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022053012/5f0f41f57e708231d44343ff/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)

KIYENZI DISCOVERY – 2018

PRIORITY TARGET FROM PHASE 1 DRILLING CAMPAIGN REVEALS NEW REE MINERALISATION
Photos: August 2018 drilling at Kiyenzi; and drill core showing the REE containing brecchia
► Significant REE mineralisation encountered in five out of ten diamond drill holes at the
Kiyenzi target as announced 27 June 2018 (see table below)
► Intersections range from a few centimetres to a few metres thick of breccia
mineralisation
► Depth of intersections discovered so far only 2 metres to 33 metres
► Thickness of the breccias may prove more amenable to mechanised extraction at
greater volumes than Gasagwe
► Multiple samples have been laboratory tested and returned attractive TREO grades
► Kiyenzi Phase 2 drilling is now complete and will form key part of code-compliant
resource expected to be delivered in December 2018
