OUR STRATEGY

Focus in the Abitibi Greenstone Belt on “brownfield” projects

Current Drilling on Chimo Mine*

Drilling Longer-dated growth opportunities: Benoist, Wilson and Fenton

PRIORITIZE QUALITY PROJECTS IN THE RIGHT JURISDICTION

Focus drilling on known Gold Zones

Phase I Drilling (34,000 m) completed: 24 Gold Zones explored, 7 prioritized

Phase II Drilling (13,000 m) completed : 7 Gold Zones explored, 3 prioritized

Phase III Drilling (15,000 m) in progress: Increase dimensions of 3 of the highest potential zones

*ADD VALUE THROUGH EXPLORATION

REPEAT PROCESS (BENOIST, WILSON, FENTON)

Monitor closely evolving situation and choose best solution

100% ownership of project

Indicated Resources of 461 280 oz (3 263 300 t at 4,40 g/t Au

Inferred Resource of 417 250 oz (3 681 600 t at 3,53 g/t Au)

14 zones partially mined by three separate

producers between 1964 and 1997 - Past production

Mine infrastructure consists of a three-compartment

shaft down to 920 meters and a network of drifts on

19 levels: 80 to 870 meters deep

Drilling since July 2017: 109 diamond drill holes for a

total of 49,251 m, Phase III drilling (11,000m) to:

Expand dimensions of 3 prioritized Zones

• Recent DDH Results on Zone 5M4 Include:

• 5.6 g/t Au over 8.5 m including 9.9 g/t Au over 3.0 m and 8.3 g/t Au over 2.5 m within in a mineralized envelope over 27.8 m grading 2.5 g/t Au
