DISCLAIMER

Some of the statements contained in the following material may be "forward-looking statements." All

statements, other than statements of historical fact, that address activities, events or developments that

Darwin Resources Corp (“Darwin”) believes, expects or anticipates will or may occur in the future are

forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are often, but not always, identified by the use

of words such as "seek," "anticipate," "believe," "plan," "estimate," "expect," and "intend" and statements

that an event or result "may," "will," "can," "should," "could," or "might" occur or be achieved and other

similar expressions. These forward-looking statements reflect the current expectations or beliefs of

Darwin based on information currently available to Darwin. Forward-looking statements are subject to

a number of risks and uncertainties that may cause the actual results of Darwin to differ materially from

those discussed in the forward-looking statements, and even if such actual results are realized or

substantially realized, there can be no assurance that they will have the expected consequences to, or

effects on Darwin. Factors that could cause actual results or events to differ materially from current

expectations include, among other things, failure to successfully complete intended financings, capital

and other costs varying significantly from estimates, production rates varying from estimates, changes in

world metal markets, changes in equity markets, uncertainties relating to the availability and costs of

financing needed in the future, equipment failure, unexpected geological conditions, imprecision in

resource estimates, success of future development initiatives, competition, operating performance of

facilities, environmental and safety risks, delays in obtaining or failure to obtain necessary permits and

approvals from government authorities, and other development and operating risks. Any forward-looking

statement speaks only as of the date on which it is made and, except as may be required by applicable

securities laws, Darwin disclaims any intent or obligation to update any forward-looking statement,

whether as a result of new information, future events or results or otherwise. Although Darwin believes

that assumptions inherent in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, forward-looking statements

are not guarantees of future performance and accordingly undue reliance should not be put on such

statements due to the inherent uncertainty therein. The qualified person for Darwin’s projects, Dr

Graham Carman, President and CEO of Darwin Resources Corp, and a Fellow of the Australasian

Institute of Mining and Metallurgists, has reviewed and verified the contents of this overview.
