• Fiscal stability contracts 25 yrs, renewable
• Accelerated depreciation, investor choice of 5 - 10 years
• Extraordinary income (windfall profits) tax (70%) only applicable
when metal price exceeds 10 yr. rolling monthly average plus one
standard deviation (likely 1 of every 7 years).
• Currency exportation tax (ISD) exemption for mining sector
• VAT (12%) refunds starting in 2018 adds up to 1.5% to IRR
• Limited applicability of capital gains tax

Summary• Cascabel project brought from a regional stream sediment anomaly to drilling
stage in 17 months…and to discovery hole in less than 22 months
• Environmental Impact Study (EIS) completed/approved in 7 months
Environmental license granted 24 hrs after EIS approval
• Very strong social license
• Alpala target drill tested to date but only one of several porphyry and
epithermal targets to be tested on the 50 km² property
• Surface exploration results, deep and extensive geophysical anomalies and
drilling results are supportive of a large gold-enriched porphyry copper
occurrence
• Partner SolGold is funding 100% of project to finalization of a bankable
feasibility study

Soroche Norte
• Highly anomalous Mo +/- Cu values
Results strongly suggest that a porphyry
system(s) lies at depth below Soroche and Q.
Caña Brava targets with peripheral higher level
Intermediate Sulphidation veins at Soroche
Norte

GENERATIVE PROGRAM
Example: BLOCK 2 – GOLD
• Several datasets: > than 50,000 samples
• First-pass data processing completed with
93 anomalous areas defined
• Operational structure in place
Cornerstone has a strong capability to
generate and explore new projects

GENEX & TARGETING
37
• Second step, detailed
compilation program
completed
• 4 Zones, 5.55 M Has
• 100 gold and/or copper
exploration targets defined
Targeting program: Cornerstone properties, main deposits, prospects,
areas investigated, targets defined and concessions applied for
Several target areas applied
for (60,000 Has) under the
ENAMI EP JV and on our own
More could be done with a
JV partner or partners
TSXV-CGP OTC-CTNXF F-GWN
STRATEGIC ALLIANCE WITH ENAMI
• Regional data compilation and integration
• Target areas defined using newly developed metallotects
• Zone 1 detailed data integration completed: 35 targets defined. 9 highest priority targets (60,000 has) selected for ground
surveys.
On June 14, 2016, Cornerstone Ecuador SA (CESA) signed the definitive Strategic Alliance and Joint
Venture agreement with Ecuador’s State Mining Company, ENAMI Empresa Pública.
ENAMI EP has a preferential right to acquire mining concessions anywhere within the country. It has
applied for approx. 40,000 Has of high quality targets in the Cascabel district under the JV agreement.
38
Cornerstone has applied for approx.15,000 Has on its own under the public bidding process.

WHY ECUADOR?
ECUADOR – AN OPPORTUNITY TO GAIN A FIRST MOVER ADVANTAGE
In addition to being the last Andean nation that is largely unexplored, Ecuador has the
advantages of abundant water and electrical power (and low power costs), excellent
highway and port infrastructure, and already is known to host world class deposits. The
discovery of the Cascabel high grade copper-gold porphyry at surface by prospecting
clearly demonstrates the underexplored nature of the country and its high potential to
host easier-to-find deposits compared to its more mining-more mature neighbor
countries. Recent changes in the tax regime makes the country competitive with Chile,
Colombia, Brazil, Mexico and Peru.
Cornerstone has an experienced team of geologists who have been continuously active
in Ecuador since 2005, and is one of the most successful exploration companies active
there.
Potential partners can significantly de-risk their investment in the country by
operating through a JV or Strategic Alliance with Cornerstone, acquiring a first
mover advantage in one of the last mining frontiers in the Andes.

WHY CORNERSTONE?
44
• 15% interest in Cascabel financed to Bankable Feasibility Study
• Timely opportunity for project generators in Ecuador
• Underexplored country hosting world class precious and base metals
deposits
• Competitive tax regime and new regulations recently implemented
making the country significantly more attractive
• First mover advantage
• Operational structure in place since 2005: Expertise and databases
• 3 Drill-ready and JV-ready projects
• 5.6M Has targeting program completed. 100 Cu and Au targets defined
• New concessions applied for and some more that could be applied for
under ENAMI JV or under the general bidding process
• World class Cascabel discovery made in less than 2 years from an
early grass-root, regional exploration program. 55,000 Has applied for in
the same district.
• Exploring in the core of a new mineral district in northern Chile
