Cautionary Statement

These presentation slides (the "Slides") do not comprise a prospectus or other form of offering document relating to Cordoba Minerals Corp. ("the Company"), and do not constitute an offer or invitation to purchase or subscribe for any securities of the Company or any other company and should not be relied on in connection with a decision to purchase or subscribe for any such securities. The Slides and the accompanying presentation do not constitute a recommendation regarding any decision to sell or purchase securities of the Company or any other company. Your attention is drawn to the risk factors set out below.

This presentation contains forward-looking statements including, but not limited to, results of the PFS; timing and results of a feasibility study, resource estimate and EIA; JCHX transaction including but not limited to, closing and receipt of all necessary approvals; targeted milestones and anticipated development of the Alacran Project; results of the Alacran PFS; growth profile; timing and positive decision to proceed with a development decision, construction and operation of a mineral project at San Matias; results of the San Matias drill program; potential for high-grade gold intercepts in gold/CBM veins; potential at Perseverance and results of upcoming work programs on the property, including timing and results of Typhoon survey, comments regarding the timing and content of upcoming work programs; potential for additional mineralization on San Matias and surrounding exploration ground; discovery of a porphyry system at Perseverance; geological interpretations, receipt of property titles and increased interest for Cordoba under the Perseverance option earn-in; results of metallurgical test work and potential metal recoveries, potential mineral recovery processes, project optimizations; exploration plans, and targets and other related matters. Forward-looking statements address future events and conditions and therefore involve inherent risks and uncertainties. The Company's current projects are at an early stage and all estimates and projections are based on limited, and possibly incomplete data. Actual results may differ materially from those currently anticipated in this presentation. No representation or prediction is intended as to the results of future work, nor can there be any guarantee that estimates and projections herein will be sustained in future work or that the projects will otherwise prove to be economic.

Forward-looking statements are based on a number of assumptions and estimates that, while considered reasonable by management based on the business and markets in which the Company operates, are inherently subject to significant operational, economic, and competitive uncertainties, risks and contingencies. Such assumptions and estimates include, but are not limited to, assumptions with respect to the status of community relations and the security situation on site and in Colombia; general business and economic conditions; continuity of drilling programs; the availability of additional exploration and mineral project; the supply and demand for, inventories of, and the level and volatility of the prices of metals; relationships with strategic partners and significant shareholders; the timing and receipt of governmental permits and approvals; the timing and receipt of community and landowner approvals; changes in regulations; political factors; the accuracy of the Company's interpretation of drill results; the geology, grade and continuity of the Company's mineral deposits; the availability of equipment, skilled labour and services needed for the exploration and development of mineral properties; currency fluctuations.

There can be no assurance that forward-looking statements will prove to be accurate and actual results, and future events could differ materially from those anticipated in such statements as a result of assumptions and risks related to the statements. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from the Company's expectations include a deterioration of security on site or actions by the local community that inhibits access and/or the ability to productively work on site; actual exploration results; interpretation of metallurgical characteristics of the mineralization; changes in project parameters as plans continue to be refined; future metal prices; availability of capital and financing on acceptable terms, general economic, market or business conditions; uninsured risks, regulatory changes and changes to laws and government policy; delays or inability to receive required approvals; and other exploration or other risks detailed herein and from time to time in the filings made by the Company with securities regulators, including those described under the heading "Risks and Uncertainties" in the Company's most recently filed MD&A. The Company does not undertake to update or revise any forward-looking statements, except in accordance with applicable law.

This presentation also contains references to estimates of Mineral Resources and Reserves. The estimation of Mineral Resources and Reserves involve subjective judgments about many relevant factors. The accuracy of any such estimates is a function of the quantity and quality of available data, and of the assumptions made and judgments used in engineering and geological interpretation (including estimated future production from the Company's projects, the anticipated tonnages and grades that will be mined and the estimated level of recovery that will be realized), which may prove to be unreliable and depend, to a certain extent, upon the analysis of drilling results and statistical inferences that ultimately may prove to be inaccurate. Mineral Reserves may have to be re-estimated based on changes to prevailing factors and assumptions used in the calculation, including costs, recovery rates, metal pricing and other factors.

Cordoba has prepared a NI 43-101 technical report for the San Matias Project titled "NI 43-101 Technical Report and Prefeasibility Study, San Matias Copper-Gold-Silver Project, Colombia," dated effective January 11, 2022 ("Alacran PFS"), which is available under the company's SEDAR profile at www.sedar.com. This technical report includes relevant information regarding the effective date and the assumptions, parameters and methods of the Mineral Resource and Reserves estimates on the San Matias Project cited in this presentation, as well as information regarding data verification, exploration procedures and other matters relevant to the scientific and technical disclosure contained in this presentation in respect of the San Matias Project and Alacran Deposit.

The technical information in this presentation pertaining to the San Matias Project has been reviewed and verified by Mark Gibson, P.Geo., a Qualified Person for the purpose of NI 43-101. Mr. Gibson is the Chief Operating Officer of Cordoba, and is not considered independent under NI 43-101.

The technical information in this presentation pertaining to the Perseverance Project has been reviewed and verified by Charles N. Forster, P.Geo., a Qualified Person for the purpose of NI 43-101. Mr. Forster is a Cordoba, and is not considered independent under NI 43-101.

Quality Assurance/Quality Control:

In connection with the drilling results on the Company's Alacran Project, the Company uses ALS Minerals Laboratory in Medellin, Colombia, ALS Minerals Laboratory in Lima, Peru, and SGS Colombia S.A.S in Medellin, Colombia. These labs operate in accordance with ISO/IEC 17025. The Company employs a comprehensive industry standard Quality Assurance/Quality Control (QA/QC) program. PQ and HQ diamond drill core is cut lengthwise into 3 fractions, 1/4 is sent to geochemistry, half is sent to metallurgy, and 1/4 is left behind in a secure facility for future assay verification. Some sample shipments are delivered to ALS Minerals Laboratory in Medellin, Colombia where the samples are prepared. Analysis occurs at the ALS Minerals Laboratory in Lima, Peru. Alternate sample shipments are delivered to SGS Colombia S.A.S in Medellin, Colombia where the samples are prepared and analyzed. Both analytical labs determine the gold by a 50 g fire assay with an AAS finish. An initial multi- element suite comprising copper, molybdenum, silver, and additional elements are analyzed by four-acid digestion with an ICP-MS finish. All samples with copper values over 10,000 ppm and gold greater than 10 ppm are subjected to an overlimit method for higher grades, which also uses a four-acid digest with an ICP-ES finish, and fire test with gravimetric finish. Certified reference materials, blanks, and duplicates are randomly inserted at the geologist's discretion and QA/QC geologist's approval into the sample stream to control laboratory performance (15%).

All dollar amounts are in US$, unless otherwise stated.

Feasibility Study Underway

Multiple Work Steams to Define the Final Layout for Mining

Over 44,000-metre FS in-fill resource diamond drill program completed:

  • Confirmed PFS Mineral Resource block model
  • Intersected multiple Carbonate Base Metal (CBM) veins that are associated with the host structures of Alacran's highest-grade mineralization

Metallurgical testing to confirm and further improve concentrate recoveries:

  • 2022 PFS assumed 92.5% Cu, 78.1% Au within fresh rock. Gold can be recovered within the saprolite material

Throughput studies to improve trade-offs between CAPEX, OPEX and NPV:

  • 2022 PFS assumed a 22,000 tpd concentrator. Trade off underway between CAPEX and OPEX of different throughputs

Mine Plan optimization and update including:

Plant location

Port

Electrical power supply

External roads and bridges design

The current 13-yearlife of mine has the potential to be extended and the economic model can be further improved by including the 3 satellite deposits in FS or resource estimate upgrade within the Alacran Deposit

The environmental footprint for the Project will be reduced using co-mingling of waste rock and thickened tailings confirmed in 2022 PFS

  • Over 44,000 metres and 233 diamond drill holes completed
  • Confirmed PFS Mineral Resource block model
  • Intersected massive sulfide zones resulting from chalcopyrite and pyrite replacement of the host rocks
  • Shallow and continuous intervals of over 100 metres with over 1% CuEq1 were identified at the core and north of the Alacran Deposit
  • Multiple CBM veins are associated with the host structures of Alacran's highest- grade mineralization:
    • The CBM veins will be modelled to determine their potential to form a high- grade sub-domain

Hole ACD170

Hole ACD170 at 79.40 m below collar, which was part of a 1-m sample grading 8.86% CuEq1, with carbonaceous mudstones and tuffs almost completely replaced by chalcopyrite, pyrrhotite and pyrite. This replacement appears to be controlled by the north-southhigh-grade structural domain.

  1. Copper equivalent ("CuEq") is calculated using the formula CuEq=((Copper%*Copper recovery)+100*((gold grade*gold price*gold recovery)/31.10305)/((copper%*copper price*copper recovery)*2204.62)+100*((silver grade*silver price*silver recovery)/31.10305)/((copper%*copper price*copper recovery)*2204.62) using the following assumptions: Metal prices of US$3.25/lb copper, US$1,600.00/oz gold, and US$20.00/oz silver, copper recovery of 92.5% (fresh and transition zone only), gold recovery of 78.1% and silver recovery of 62.9%.
  2. Intervals are reported as core length only. True widths are estimated to be between 75% and 100% of the core length. ACD156 and ACD157 were drilled sub-parallel to dip and these lengths do not represent true thickness.
  3. Holes ACD162 had partial core recovery, which is why the from-to lengths do not equate to the sampled intervals.
