                             BISIE TIN PROJECT C4 COMMISSIONING COMPLETE

Alphamin Resources Corp. (Alphamin) completed C4 Commissioning of its Bisie tin project Processing Plant.

C4 involves feeding the system with material, checking instrumentation calibration, process flows and individual
equipment throughput and building up to instantaneous design throughput. A C4 certificate indicates that a unit or
the entire system is complete and can operate with material.

C5 is the final stage of the commissioning process. This is achieved when the facility has run at and held at full
continuous production at nameplate capacity for a duration of 48 hours.

Attaining C5 and the ramp up to nameplate capacity is taking longer than expected as aspects of the processing
plant operations are refined and optimised.

Concentrate produced during commissioning and the plant ramp up, are being delivered to Gerald Metals in
Kampala. Gerald Metals have taken delivery of 96 tonnes of concentrate. A further 192 tonnes are on route to
Kampala from Logu, Alphamin’s marshalling yard for tin exports where a further 240 tonnes are being cleared for
export prior to departing for Kampala. Total production to date is 528 tons.

Sound Mining Solutions are nearing completion of the revised mine design. Once complete the NI 43-101 will be
updated.

The Directorate General of Taxes have informed Alphamin VAT disbursements will be forthcoming.

The Industrial Development Corporation (IDC) will be matching their pro rata share of the recent equity raised by
Alphamin.

Nameplate production is expected to be achieved during H2 2019. To avoid requiring any additional funding
Alphamin requires break even production of circa 800 tonnes of concentrate per month, be achieved by during July
2019.
