Forward Looking Statements
The material used in this presentation is intended to be a summary of selected geological data, current and proposed activities, as well as resource estimates based on information available to Matsa Resources Limited (“Matsa” or “the Company”) at the time.
It does not include all available information and should not be used in isolation as a basis to invest in Matsa Resources.
This presentation may include information and graphics relating to a conceptual mining study, completed independent resource estimate and a scoping study and includes “forward looking statements” which include, without limitation, estimates of gold production based on mineral resources that are currently being evaluated.
While the Company has a reasonable basis on which to express these estimates, any forward looking statement is subject to risk.
Risks include, without limitation, gold metal prices, foreign exchange rate movements, project funding capacity and estimates of future capital and operating costs.
The Company does not undertake to release publicly any revisions to forward looking statements included in this presentation to reflect events or results after the date of this presentation, except as may be required under applicable securities regulations.
Any potential investor should refer to publically available reports on the ASX website and seek independent advice before considering investing in the company.

• 1 Cu only target (SH05) and 2 Ni only targets (SH02 and SH03) indicate potential for other base metal styles
• Infill Soil Sampling of remaining targets will re-commence when access tracks are in place
