Lac Ménarik = 91 claims (46.76 km2) / Ménarik East = 68 claims (34.94 km2)
Two electric transmission lines run through claims
Near intersection between James Bay paved and Transtaiga gravel roads

LAC MÉNARIK AND MÉNARIK EAST PROPERTIES – REGIONAL GEOLOGY
Archean greenstone belt made up of volcano-sedimentary rocks / Yasinski Group basalt
Polymictic conglomerate along deformation corridor (Timiskaming-style) / early erosional unconformity? [blue unit]
Syenite-hosted and/or orogenic gold mineralization styles
Layered ultramafic-mafic igneous complex with Cr-PGE±Ni±Cu occurrences [purple unit]
8
LAC MÉNARIK PROPERTY– GOLD MINERALIZATION STYLES
Some of the best drilling intersections: 0.89 g/t Au over 68.25 m, 7.51 g/t Au over 1.41 m
Very high tenors in individual quartz veins (up to 500 g/t Au)
Mineralization and alteration more abundant where monzonite is fractured, brecciated and/or sheared
Feldspar-porphyritic
monzonite intrusion
Large-feldspar porphyritic monzonite intrusion spatially-associated to most gold occurrences; gold also in basalts, conglomerates, iron formations and gabbros (syenite-hosted model)
Most commonly in narrow quartz veins (stockwork), less commonly disseminated in host rock
Alteration consists in quartz, sericite, albite, calcite, dolomite, epidote, hematite; sulphides (pyrite, chalcopyrite, rare galena) in veins and host rock
Lake Ménarik sits on a major fault marking a sharp metamorphic contrast (greenschist to amphibolite facies)

LAC MÉNARIK PROPERTY – NEW 2017 GOLD SHOWINGS
Prospecting and geological mapping conducted by Harfang in 2016 and 2017
Discovery of additional high-tenor gold showings along a propable structure on the edge of the conglomerate unit (orogenic gold model)
Trenching yielded 1.04 g/t Au over 24.9 m
Geological setting located at intersection of several structural lineaments
IP survey completed over monzonite (25 linear km’s) with several anomalies

Abundant gabbroic dykes intruded into felsic basement
Excellent drilling database (> 36,600 m)

Gabbroic dykes found near gold showings
Polymetallic showings with associated Au, Ag, Cu, Zn and Pb(different mineralization style?)
IP survey completed (17 linear km’s) with several anomalies to beinvestigated

74 claims (36.48 km2), located 35 km east of Kuujjuarapik (Nunavik) and 160 km north of Radisson (James Bay)
Joint Venture with Kenorland Minerals Ltd
Access by helicopter or floatplane
Great Whale Archean greenstone belt defined over 16 km x 8 km
Dominated by mafic volcanics; scarce terrigenous and orthochemical sedimentary rocks, felsic lavas, and ultramafic and felsic intrusions; major iron formations in the south
Generally greenschist facies, higher metamorphic grade locally
Geological mapping by the Federal and Québec governments before 1983
Exploration activities conducted in 1997, 1999 and 2000 by Virginia Gold Mines
Airborne Mag-EM and ground Mag-IP surveys, mapping and rock and till sampling done / no drillingyet
>30 gold showings mainly along the Esker and Cuesta trends in the western branch / some with high Zn-Pb-Cu-Ag tenors
Significant portion of the property covered by esker sediments / bedrock never investigated

LAC FAGNANT PROPERTY CHARACTERISTICS OF GOLD OCCURRENCES
Gold mineralization is found in sheared and altered basalts and in basalt-hosted quartz veins (orogenic gold model)
Alteration minerals include chlorite, actinolite, epidote, andalusite, K-feldspar, albite, sericite
Sulphides include pyrite, pyrrhotite, arsenopyrite, chalcopyrite, galena and sphalerite
Mesothermal gold-rich veins reach up to 47 g/t Au and polymetallic veins grade up to 29.2 g/t Au, 8.9% Zn, >1% Pb, 0.3% Cu, 70.2 g/t Ag in the western band
Low mag zone for the volcanic-dominatedportion of the belt / iron formations in areas with high mag signature
Western volcanic band more altered and deformed than eastern band / most probable explanation for abundance of gold in the former
Quaternary sediments (Esker) hide gold-bearing structures known to be associated with gold occurrences

SERPENT PROPERTY GOLD AND COPPER MINERALIZATION
Grassroot prospecting in 2017 led to discovery of gold and coppershowings hosted in foliated and gneissic tonalite
Best grab sample for gold: 4.11 g/t Au
Best grab sample for copper: 2.11% Cu, 0.68 g/t Au, 19.1 g/t Ag
Pyrite and chalcopyrite in quartz veins
Minor quartz arenite (Apple Formation) in southern block
Mineralization could be linked to an east-west deformationcorridor (blue area) defined by structural data and magneticbreaks
