^[1] Assets under construction are not being depreciated as they are not in the condition necessary to be capable of being operated in the manner intended by management.

^[2] The Company reclassified long-term deposits related to engineering of the electrical powerline under the property, plant, and equipment category Mine under construction category in 2024. Consequently, comparative figures for prior years have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation. The reclassification had no impact on the net loss.
