About Kombat Copper

Kombat is a publicly traded Canadian exploration and development company with
its core operations focused on copper resources in Namibia, one of the world's
most prospective copper regions, where it has substantial assets in place with
significant exploration upside. 


The Company holds an 80% interest in five mining licenses in the Otavi
Mountainlands, an area of Namibia particularly known for its high-grade copper
deposits. Within these licenses are three past-producing mines including the
Company's flagship property: the past-producing Kombat Mine. The Kombat Mine's
extensive infrastructure includes an 800m exploration shaft which was opened in
2006, three recently-operational shafts, ramp systems, extensive underground
workings, mine buildings, a tailings facility, a mill and concentrator
(replacement value est +$100MM) all supported by the Company's local town-site.
The Kombat mine originally opened in 1962 and historically produced approx. 8.7
million tonnes of ore grading 3.1% Cu (from the technical report issued March
30, 2012 and titled 2012 "Technical (NI 43-101) Report on the Kombat Project",
prepared by Henry J. Awmack, P.Eng. for Equity Exploration Consultants Ltd.) and
is linked to vital existing infrastructure, including power, water, roads, and
rail with close proximity to the port of Walvis Bay and to one of only five
commercial-grade smelters in Africa located in Tsumeb. 


In addition to mining licenses, the Company holds an 80% interest in five
Exclusive Prospecting Licenses ("EPL's"). The EPL's are located also within the
copper-rich Otavi Mountainlands and are in close proximity to Tsumeb.
