Momentum Driven by Strong Metallurgical Results

The leadership team’s focused mandate is strongly supported by the Company’s recent robust metallurgical results (November 20, 2025), which validate the project’s technical potential for producing high-quality flake graphite concentrate:

Key Metallurgical Metrics (Graphi West Sample)	Result	Significance
Flotation Recovery	96.7%	Excellent material recovery efficiency.
Concentrate Grade	94.8% Ct	Meets general commercial purity specifications with potential for further upgrading.
Large/Medium Flake	~40%	Flake sizes larger than medium, which typically command premium pricing.
High Grade Samples	15.3% to 32.7% Cg	Demonstrates high-grade zones across multiple mineralized areas.

These strong results confirm Tetepisca’s potential to deliver a high-value, high-purity natural flake graphite product essential for batteries and other advanced industrial applications.
