Certain of the statements made and information contained herein are “forward-looking information”. These statements relate to future events or the Company's

future performance. Statements, other than statements of historical fact, may be forward-looking statements. Generally, these forward-looking statements can

be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology such as “anticipates”, “plans”, “budget”, “scheduled”, “continue”, “estimates”, “forecasts”, “expect”, “is

expected”, “project”, “propose”, “potential”, “targeting”, “intends”, “believes” or variations of such words and phrases or statements that certain actions, events

or results “may”, “could”, “would”, “might”, or “will be taken”, “occur” or “be achieved” or the negative connotation thereof. These statements involve known and

unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause actual results or events to differ materially from those anticipated in such forward-looking

statements. The Company believes that the expectations reflected in those forward-looking statements are reasonable, but no assurance can be given that

these expectations will prove to be correct and such forward-looking statements included in this presentation should not be unduly relied upon by readers, as

satisfactory terms. The Company’s actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of the risk factors

set forth below and elsewhere in this presentation: volatility in the market price for minerals; uncertainties associated with estimating resources; geological,

technical, drilling and processing problems; liabilities and risks, including environmental liabilities and risks, inherent in mineral operations; fluctuations in

currencies and interest rates; incorrect assessments of the value of acquisitions; unanticipated results of exploration activities; competition for, amongst other

things, capital, undeveloped lands and skilled personnel; lack of availability of additional financing and farm-in or joint venture partners; and unpredictable

weather conditions. Although the Company has attempted to identify important factors that could cause results to differ materially from those contained in

forward-looking statements, there may be other factors that cause results not to be as anticipated, estimated or intended. There can be no assurance that such

statements will prove to be accurate, as actual results and future events could differ materially from those anticipated in such statements. Accordingly, readers

should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements. Readers are cautioned that the foregoing lists of factors are not exhaustive. The Company

does not undertake to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except in

accordance with applicable securities laws.

Fondaway Canyon – A Rich History

➢ Historic gold resource estimate*:

♦ Indicated 409,000 Oz @ 6.18 Au g/t

♦ Inferred 660,000 Oz @ 6.40 Au g/t

➢ Historic gold mining in the oxide zone

➢ Extensive 3.5 km long gold mineralization corridor

➢ Excellent access and local support

➢ Potential to add ounces

* The historic resource estimate was completed by Techbase International Ltd of Reno, Nevada, and it is contained within a NI 43-101 report dated April 3, 2017 that was commissioned by

Canarc Resource Corp of Vancouver, B.C., Canada. The resource estimate was compiled only from drill holes that could be validated (591 holes @ 49,086 m), a sufficient amount to deem the

historic resource as reliable. Using Techbase software, a method of polygons was used along each vein. With a minimum 0.10 opt Au and 1.8 m horizontal vein width used as cut-off

parameters; twelve veins had sufficient composited intercepts within the sulfide mineralization for the estimate.

No capping or cutting of grades was applied. The historical resource estimate used classifications in accordance with NI 43-101 standards, namely, “indicated” and “inferred”. A review and/or re-calculation of the historic

resource is required by an independent Qualified Person to confirm these as current resources as defined by NI 43-101. A qualified person has not done sufficient work to classify the historical estimate as current mineral

resources; and the issuer is not treating the historical estimate as current mineral resources.

➢Property comprised of 26 unpatented mining claims administered by the BLM

➢Low-sulfidation, epithermal gold system localized along a moderately dipping range-front

normal fault on the east flank of the Stillwater Range 78 km northeast of Fallon

➢Mineralization is believed to be hosted by Jurassic gabbro and mafic tuff in:

✓ The footwall of the fault,

✓ Silicification within the fault zone, and

✓ Within the hanging wall tuffaceous sediments

➢ 1991 Historic Resource estimate**:

✓ 146,000 ounces of gold in 4.26 million tonnes

✓ grading 1.063 g/t Au at a cut-off grade of 0.34 g/t Au

➢Mineralization remains open down-dip and to the east

Dixie Comstock Property Overview

**The historic geologic resource estimate was completed by Mine Development Associates of Reno, Nevada, and is contained within a report dated March 1991 commissioned by Horizon Gold Corporation.

The resource estimate was compiled only from drill holes (179 holes totalling 19,679 m), a sufficient amount to deem the historic resource as reliable. The kriged block model was constructed based on a N45E major axis direction with a

30 degree dip and clipped using three separate mineralized zones (high grade, low grade and hot springs mineralization) with a minimum 0.01 opt (0.34 g/t) Au cut-off. No capping or cutting of grades was applied.

The tonnage and grade estimate stated herein is ‘historic’ as defined by NI43-101 and did not use resource classifications in accordance with NI 43-101 standards, instead a single indivisible resource category was defined, a ‘Geologic

Resource’. A qualified person has not done sufficient work to classify the historical estimates as current mineral resources and the qualified person is not treating these historical mineral estimates as a current estimate for mineral

resources. Additional work will need to be undertaken to verify the historic estimates and classify them as current resources.

Star Point Overview

➢ Historic, near surface, mining operation

underlain by a magnetically defined intrusion

➢ IP-Resistivity survey over intrusion returned

chargeability and resistivity highs interpreted as

potential copper sulfide mineralization, possibly

intrusion related

➢ Drill test at Star Point centered on the high-

grade copper oxide (tenorite) mine shaft area

and will penetrate into a magnetically defined

intrusion signature containing high chargeability

and a very strong conductor

➢ Primary target to be tested is the supergene

enrichment zone of copper and primary copper

sulfide associated with an intrusion

Star South Overview

➢ Historic artisanal shallow mining area that contains

surface copper-gold oxide mineralization (tenorite)

along northeast trending faults and along the

thrust fault boundary at the surface

➢ The IP-Resistivity survey returned elevated

chargeability and a resistivity high indicating the

presence of a strong conductor

➢ The central drill target on the mine area is

designed to test through the thrust fault into the

top of the elevated chargeability and strong

conductor, possibly altered and mineralized

argillite and carbonates

➢ The western drill target is a follow-up hole to test

the shallow and strong chargeability more likely to

be in lower plate carbonates, outside of the historic

mine area and concealed under gravel coverFrench Boy

arsenic zone during 2019 drill

program by hole HSP-RC5

➢ HSP-RC5 intercepted 0.133 g/t

Au over 26 metres including

0.69 g/t Au over 1.5 metres

➢ Anomalous arsenic was

encountered throughout the

entire length of HSP-RC5

returning a weighted average of

377 ppm As

➢ The association of gold with

arsenic sulfide minerals is a

well-known characteristic of

Carlin-type gold deposits
