This presentation contains “forward looking information” or "forward looking statements" that involve a number of risks and uncertainties.
Forward looking information and forward looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements with respect to the future prices of
gold, copper and acid, toll rates, metals exposure and stockpile interest rate deductions, the estimation of mineral reserves and resources,
the realization of mineral estimates, the timing and amount of estimated future production and output, costs of production, capital
expenditures (including sustaining capex, non-discretionary capex and discretionary capex), costs and timing of the development of new
deposits, success of exploration activities, permitting time lines, currency fluctuations, requirements for additional capital, government
regulation of mining operations, environmental risks, unanticipated reclamation expenses, title disputes or claims, limitations on insurance
coverage and timing and possible outcome of pending litigation. Often, but not always, forward looking statements can be identified by the
use of words such as “plans”, “expects”, or “does not expect”, “is expected”, “budget”, “scheduled”, “estimates”, “forecasts”, “intends”,
“anticipates”, or “does not anticipate”, or “believes”, or variations of such words and phrases or state that certain actions, events or results
“may”, “could”, “would”, “might” or “will” be taken, occur or be achieved. Forward looking statements are based on the opinions and
estimates of management as of the date such statements are made, and they involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other
factors which may cause the actual results, performance or achievements of the Company to be materially different from any other future
results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by the forward looking statements. Such factors include, among others: the
actual results of current exploration activities; actual results of current reclamation activities; conclusions of economic evaluations;
changes in project parameters as plans continue to be refined; future prices of gold, copper and acid; possible variations in ore grade or
recovery rates; failure of plant, equipment or processes to operate as anticipated; accidents, labour disputes and other risks of the mining
and smelting industries; delays in obtaining governmental approvals or financing or in the completion of development or construction
activities, fluctuations in metal prices and toll rates, as well as those risk factors discussed or referred to in this presentation under and in
the Company’s annual information form under the heading "Risk Factors" and other documents filed from time to time with the securities
regulatory authorities in all provinces and territories of Canada and available at www.sedar.com. Although the Company has 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 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
anticipated in such statements. Accordingly, readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on forward looking statements.

Chelopech Au-Cu MineralizationOre Mineralization
Stockwork, vein and disseminated
type of ore are most common among
the different types breccia and among
intrusive bodies.
Ore Minerals
Py, Tn, En-Luz, Au, Cpy & Bn with
late stage Sp/Ga
Orebodies Morphology
Columnar pipe like bodies that
typically plunge steeply towards the S
& SE.
Alteration
Advanced argillic zone with “vuggy” silica and massive silica localities with quartz, dickite, kaolinite, pyrite, pyrophillite and alunite
Sericitic zone, characterized with quartz, sericite, illite, kaolinite, pyrite, rutile ± APS minerals;
Propylitic zone, composed of quartz, albite, calcite, chlorite, pyrite, sericite and epidote.

Chelopech Au-Cu Mineralization: New Geology Model
• It is interpreted that Chelopech deposit was formed in shallow intrusive setting, related to phreato-
magmatic breccias which formed a maar-diatreme and numerous blind breccia-pipe structures.

Chelopech – 2017 Near Mine Exploration
Purpose – Add to copper and gold resources, extend LOM
• Completion of the remaining 2,000m of underground drilling (Q1 – Q2, 2017) to evaluate and report on the copper-gold potential along the Southeast Breccia Pipe Zone (SEBPZ).
• Commencement of the first stage of surface exploration on the Brevene and Sveta Petka exploration licenses (i.e. geological mapping, rock chip sampling, soil sampling and ground magnetics) to determine prospective Au-Cu areas (Q2 - Q3) to follow up for surface drill testing (Q3 - Q4) and;
• Implement and complete 3,000m of surface drilling to test prospective Au-Cu surface target areas within the Brevene, Sveta Petka and Chelopech (i.e. including Sharlo Dere) exploration licenses (Q2 - Q4 2017).
• Apply for additional exploration licenses covering prospective copper-gold areas surrounding the existing DPM Chelopech mining and exploration assets to help secure a long-term ground position to test for additional resources.
