Alto Ventures has identified priority magnetic anomalies consistent
with kimberlite pipes on its GEFA claims from historically available
airborne geophysical surveys.
These anomalies will be followed up with down-ice till sampling for
kimberlite indicator minerals (KIMs). Anomaly till sample follow-up
will comprise the first stage of a regional till sample program for
KIMs.

Oxford Lake Gold Project – Manitoba
• Property lies along a major regional scale structural corridor that hosts
several gold deposits and the corridor is under-explored
• Alto Ventures owns 100% interest in the 35,300 ha Oxford Lake property;
Razore Rock Resources can earn up to 60% by spending $3.1 million
• GOLD POTENTIAL – RUSTY-BLUE JAY Area - Historical Rusty Gold Deposit of
800,000 tonnes grading 6 g/t gold (154,000 oz.) to a depth of 600 m,
mineralization open along strike and depth, excellent potential for
expansion with more drilling
• Gold at Blue Jay - 6.8 m averaging 5.7 g/t gold including 11.7 g/t over
1.6 m and 16.5 g/t over 1.0 m drilled in 2012; located 2 km on strike from
historical Rusty Gold Deposit; other zones is same hole including one at
6.7 g/t over 2.7 m
• Discovery potential for new deposit associated with numerous other
geophysical coincident VTEM-Mag targets not tested
*Note: These historical resource estimates have not been calculated or classified under the specifications outlined
in National Instrument 43-101and should not be relied upon.

major regional-scale shear-
fault corridor in the Abitibi belt
• Targets Timmins and Val d’Or
style shear-hosted and bulk
tonnage lode gold deposits

• Wide spaced drilling in 2012 between DAC Deposit and Darla Gold Zone
confirmed potential for resource expansion and possible increased grades
• Infill drilling is required to add to the DAC resources

Beardmore Gold Camp, Ontario
• Miner Lake Project:
- numerous surface gold occurrences including 19m
averaging 1.78 g/t Au and 0.11% Cu
- under-explored – only 11 holes drilled by Alto in 2011, eight
assayed anomalous gold
- hole MN11-06 averaged 0.6 g/t Au over 39.2 m
- target is bulk-mineable open pit mineralization similar to
Cote Lake deposit being developed by IAMGOLD
• High Grade Vein style gold targets:
-numerous gold occurrences on the Mud Lake, Cote- Archie
Lake and Greenoaks properties
