attempted to identify important factors that could cause actual actions, events or results to differ materially from those described in forward-

looking statements, there may be other factors that cause actions, events or results not to be as anticipated, estimated or intended. There can be

no assurance that forward-looking statements will prove to be accurate, as actual results and future events could differ materially from those

A Values-Based and Value-Focused Company

WE ARE SUCCESSFUL WHEN:

their investment and support our corporate values

Our values are visibly demonstrated by strong local

management, at the point of impact with our

stakeholders, and coordinated across the Company for

maximum effect

Profitable and Dividend-Paying: (3.4% yield)*

*Trailing 12 months dividends divided by current market capitalization (Oct. 31, 2016)

Page 4: Mandalay Resources November 2016 Investor Presentation

Designed for Value: How We are Different

Acquire only when we see possibility of 3-5X value uplift in 3-5 years

Target cash cost of production: 50% of ‘reversion to mean’ metal price

100% ownership of all operations; no private royalties, no streams

Flat, virtual, low-cost organizational structure; local GM accountability

Direct relationships and sales contracts with customers

Dividend-paying: 6% of trailing quarterly revenue

No hedging of metal prices

Lightly levered with low-interest, gold-convertible bonds

Stingy with equity

Disciplined management processes operated with integrity

Compensation systems based on value-add

site grinding capacity)

Changed mining method from cut-and-fill to

blast-hole stoping with cemented rock fill

(greater production, lower unit costs)

Introduced contract capital development for

faster and lower cost results

Increased sub-level spacing from 5 – 10 m

Replaced mechanized mining fleet

Introduced mobile crusher to decrease particle

size of mill feed (better recoveries, higher

Björkdal 2015 Operational Improvements:

Record High Rate Record Low Cost

Introduced best practice mapping, drilling,

sampling, and modelling of high nugget-

effect gold deposits

Produced a more refined resource model to

support more selective underground & open

pit mining techniques

Establishing a local assay lab for faster

grade control turnaround

2016 Planned Improvements:

Increasing grade of mill feed through more

selective underground and open pit mining at

an increasing rate (making up for discarding

waste) DONE

Pilot optical ore sorting – DONE

Pilot coarse and ultra-fine gold float – DONE

Completed:

Sampling survey on milling and gravity gold circuits to identify

improvement opportunities

Laboratory flotation recovery study on effect of fineness of

grind, % solids, and residence time – key for decision-making

on possible future flotation circuit expansion

Pilot on-site testing of coarse and ultra fine gold flotation

Flotation circuit and ancillary equipment expansion study to

determine OPEX and CAPEX for a planned flotation circuit

expansion. Goal: improve flotation recovery and concentrate

grade

2016 Planned Improvements:

Milling/Flotation material flow stability survey to identify areas

where automation can be implemented to improve recovery

Introduction of high chrome grinding media for increased wear

resistance, grinding media cost saving and improved pulp

chemistry for improved flotation recovery
