About Zenyatta
Zenyatta's Albany Graphite Project hosts a large and unique quality deposit of highly crystalline graphite. Independent labs in
Japan, UK, Israel, USA and Canada have demonstrated that Zenyatta's Albany Graphite/Naturally PureTM easily converts
(exfoliates) to graphene using a variety of simple mechanical and chemical methods. The deposit is located in northern Ontario just
30km north of the Trans-Canada Highway, near the communities of Constance Lake First Nation and Hearst. Important nearby
infrastructure include hydro-power, natural gas pipeline, a rail line 50 km away and an all-weather road just 10 km from the
deposit.

as "potential", "believes", "anticipates", "expects", "estimates", "may", "could", "would", "will", or "plan". These statements are
based on information currently available to Zenyatta and Zenyatta provides no assurance that actual results will meet management's

goals, to the effect that Zenyatta or management expects a stated condition or result to occur, including the expected uses for
graphite or graphene in the future, and the future uses of the graphite from Zenyatta's Albany deposit. Since forward-looking
statements are based on assumptions and address future events and conditions, by their very nature they involve inherent risks and
uncertainties. Actual results relating to, among other things, results of metallurgical processing, ongoing exploration, project
development, reclamation and capital costs of Zenyatta's mineral properties, and Zenyatta's financial condition and prospects,
could differ materially from those currently anticipated in such statements for many reasons such as, but are not limited to:
failure to convert estimated mineral resources to reserves; the preliminary nature of metallurgical test results; the inability to
identify target markets and satisfy the product criteria for such markets; the inability to complete a prefeasibility study; the
inability to enter into offtake agreements with qualified purchasers; delays in obtaining or failures to obtain required
governmental, environmental or other project approvals; political risks; uncertainties relating to the availability and costs of
financing needed in the future; changes in equity markets, inflation, changes in exchange rates; fluctuations in commodity prices;
delays in the development of projects; capital and operating costs varying significantly from estimates and the other risks
involved in the mineral exploration and development industry; and those risks set out in Zenyatta's public documents filed on
SEDAR. This list is not exhaustive of the factors that may affect any of Zenyatta's forward-looking statements. These and other
factors should be considered carefully and readers should not place undue reliance on Zenyatta's forward-looking statements.
