Information disclosed in this Presentation is current as of March 18, 2025, except as otherwise provided herein and Formation does not undertake or agree to update this Presentation after the date hereof All information is derived solely from management of Formation and otherwise publicly available third-party information that has not been independently verified by the Company Further, it does not purport to be complete nor is it intended to be relied upon as advice (legal, financial, tax or otherwise) to current or potential investors. Each prospective investor should contact his, her or its own legal adviser, independent financial adviser or tax adviser for legal, financial or tax advice.
No representation or warranty, express or implied, is made or given by or on behalf of Formation or any of its affiliates, directors, officers or employees as to the accuracy, completeness or fairness of the information or opinions contained in this Presentation and no responsibility or liability is accepted by any person for such information or opinions No person has been authorized to give any information or make any representations other than those contained in this Presentation and, if given and/or made, such information or representations must not be relied upon as having been so authorized.
This presentation includes certain “forward-looking information” and “forward-looking statements” (collectively “forward-looking statements”) within the meaning of applicable Canadian and United States securities legislation including the United States Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. This information and these statements, referred to herein as “forward looking statements”, are made as of the date of this Presentation or as of the date of the effective date of information described in this presentation, as applicable Forward-looking statements are statements that relate to future, not past, events In this context, forward-looking statements often address expected future business and financial performance, and often contain words such as "anticipate", "believe", "plan", "estimate", "expect", and "intend", statements that an action or event "may", "might", "could", "should", or "will" be taken or occur, or other similar expressions. By their nature, forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors which may cause our actual results, performance or achievements, or other future events, to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Such factors include, among others, the following risks: the need for additional financing; operational risks associated with mineral exploration; fluctuations in commodity prices; title matters; and the additional risks identified on the Company’s website or other reports and filings with the TSX Venture Exchange and applicable Canadian securities regulators Forward-looking statements are made based on management's beliefs, estimates and opinions on the date that statements are made and the Company undertakes no obligation to update forward-looking statements if these beliefs, estimates and opinions or other circumstances should change, except as required by applicable securities laws Investors are cautioned against attributing undue certainty to forward-looking state.
This presentation contains certain information pertaining to historical results. The historical results contained in this presentation have not been verified as current mineral resources and are not contained in a National Instrument 43-101 technical report and therefore should not be relied upon for assessing the merits of any projects A qualified person has not done sufficient work to classify the historical estimate as current mineral resources or mineral reserves, and Usha is not treating the historical estimate as current mineral resources or mineral reserves Accordingly, these historical estimates are presented only for the purposes of assisting in describing the extent of mineralization and to outline the exploration potential These estimates should not be relied upon. No assurances can be made that exploration targets will be developed into resources or reserves. The exploration targets are conceptual in nature and relies on projections of mineralization that are beyond the standard CIM classification of mineral resources and should not be relied on as mineral resource estimates The Company’s future exploration work will include verification of the data The potential quantity and grade of any exploration target in this presentation is conceptual in nature, there has been insufficient exploration to define a mineral resource and it is uncertain if further exploration will result in the exploration target being delineated as a mineral resource. Mineralization hosted on adjacent and/or nearby and/or geologically similar properties is not necessarily indicative of mineralization hosted on the Company’s property In general, Formation believes that there is potential to expand these historical results/estimates to a significant drill discovery through an initial round of exploration drilling and by closer-spaced infill drilling to standards suitable for formal resource estimation.
Although the Company has attempted to identify important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in forward-looking information, there may be other factors that cause results not to be as anticipated, estimated or intended. There can be no assurance that such information will prove to be accurate, as actual results and future events could differ materially from those anticipated in such information. Accordingly, readers should not place undue reliance on forward looking information Formation and its directors, officers and employees disclaim any obligation to update any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or results or otherwise, except as required by applicable law Accordingly, current and potential investors should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements due to the inherent uncertainty therein. All forward-looking information is expressly qualified in its entirety by this cautionary statement.
