THE FOLLOWING INFORMATION may contain forward–looking statements. Forward

looking statements address future events and conditions and therefore involve

inherent risks and uncertainties. Actual results may differ materially from those

currently anticipated in such statement. Forward-looking information is subject to

known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause Mogul

Venture Corp’s actual results, level of activity, performance or achievements to be

materially from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking information.

Such factors include, but are not limited to: uncertainties related to the historical

resource estimates, the work expenditure commitments; the ability to raise

sufficient capital to fund future exploration or development programs; changes in

economic condition or financial markets, regulatory, political and competitive

developments; technological or operational difficulties or an inability to obtain

permits required in connection with maintaining, or advancing projects; and labour

relation matters *All historical resource estimates quoted herein date from the 1960s and 1970s and are based on prior

data and reports obtained and prepared by previous operators and information provided by the State, using

a Russian classification system not compatible with 43-101. Insufficient data exists to compare Russian

categories to current C.I.M. categories. Mogul Ventures believes these historical results provide an

indication of the potential of the property and are relevant to ongoing exploration. It should also be noted

that mineral resources which are not mineral reserves do not have demonstrated economic viability as

defined by NI 43-101 guidelines.

• Chinese government plans to cap domestic coal output within 3.9Bt by 2016 and is

encouraging companies to explore for coal in Mongolia and other regions(1)

according to research consultants Wood Mackenzie(2)

• 2012 annualized GDP growth ~15%(3)

• Mining is the most important sector

• “Contributes 30% of GDP and 70% of exports”(4)

MONGOLIA COAL OVERVIEW

• Viewed as Saudi Arabia of

coal

• Total Minable

resources estimate

~162 billion tons (1)

• Rapid growth potential

• Current production in

excess of 20 million

tons per year (mostly

exported to China)

• Production expected

to reach 60 - 70

million tons by 2015(2)

Mongolia is recognized as the home of some of the world’s

largest natural resource deposits including coal, gold and

copper

MONGOLIA COAL OVERVIEW

• High quality and highly accessible:

• Generally near surface, ideal for low cost open pit mining, dominated by high-

quality low ash, low sulfur and low phosphorous coals

• Known geology:

• 12 coal basins, 3 regions with over 200 deposits of thermal and metallurgical grade

coal

• Main coal formation ages: Carboniferous-Permian, Jurassic, Cretaceous and Tertiary

• Thick coal seams formed in all ages

REGIONAL COAL DEMAND

• China, Mongolia’s southern neighbor, is the world’s leading consumer of coal with

annual demand of 2 billion tons

• China’s coal demand is expected to increase - planned power plant construction in

China is heavily concentrated in the northeast

• Domestic coal demand will increase significantly as Mongolia plans to exponentially

increase its own power infrastructure

• Coals of Northern China tend to be of a lower calorific value as compared to those

from the South and middle Gobi basins of Mongolia. China has a shortage of coking

coal

• The Chinese Government is focusing on fixed asset investments inland into Central

and Western provinces where Australian and Indonesian coals are not competitive

OVDOG HUDAG COAL DEPOSIT

• In 2011, a 14 hole, ~2,370 m core drilling program on 1,000 m

centers confirmed the historical work on the deposit, resulting

in an initial NI 43-101 Resource Estimate by SRK Consulting

• NI 41-101 Report summary results:

• Estimated Inferred Resources of 89.6 Mt (1)

• 8 coal seams recognized – 4 fully mineable, 2 partially

mineable

• Classed as High Vol Bituminous A Thermal Coal

• Average Gross Calorific value – 5,636 to 6,431 kcal/kg (daf)*

• *3,776 to 4,952 kcal/kg on a dry basis; daf = dry ash free

basis

• Average Volatile Matter – 29.9 to 37.9%

• Average Fixed Carbon – 32.3 to 39.5%

• Average Ash – 22 to 33% - washing will reduce

• Average Sulphur - 4.94%; removal of abundant visible pyrite

by washing expected to reduce S levels significantly

• SRK recommended program: infill and expansion drilling

program, process test work, mine design and Preliminary

Economic Assessment

OVDOG HUDAG & IKH ULAAN-NUUR DEPOSITS

• Ovdog Hudag coal deposit historical resources, based on Russian drilling from the ‘60s and ‘70s, using a Russian Classification system and based on >85 drill holes:

• 1968: C1+C2 resources totalling 201.2 Mt*1

• 1970: B+C1+C2 resources totalling 168.2 Mt*1

• Ikh Ulaan-Nuur coal deposit is located 7km NNE of Ovdog Hudag and was defined by Russian drilling in the ‘60s and ‘70s

• 1970: A+B+C1+C2 resources totalling 86.4 Mt*1

• Excellent potential for additional coal resources to be delineated in the undrilled area between Ovdog Hudag and Ikh Ulaan-Nuur

• Re-drilling of Ikh Ulaan-Nuur will add to NI 43-101 resources

• Open pit accessible coal resources with expected low strip ratio

BLACK HILLS: KEY ADVANTAGES

• Strategic location close to existing rail line (parallel line planned) providing

ready access to Chinese markets

• Open pit accessible thermal coal resources with expected low strip

ratio

• NI 43-101 compliant Inferred Resource of 89.6 Mt from 2,370m of drilling in

14 holes at Ovdog Hudag deposit

• Excellent potential to significantly expand the projects’ coal resources

through:

• Infill and step-out drilling at Ovdog Hudag deposit where substantially larger

historical resources were delineated by Russian work in the 1960s and 1970s

through more detailed drilling

• Ovdog Hudag Coal Deposit remains open to the north

• Drilling of the Ikh Ulaan Nuur deposit 7km NNE of Ovdog Hudag (86.4 Mt*1)

• Testing the undrilled area between the two known deposits

• Property has potential for presence of other commodities (Cu, Fe)

Nuur to delineate additional resources

• Re-drill Ikh Ulaan-Nuur

• Commence detailed development studies including:

environmental baseline, processing, mine design

• Evaluation of potential for other valuable commodities

on the property (Fe, Cu)

• Conduct an economic evaluation

• Develop Black Hills towards production

• Seek strategic partners for funding expansion, off-take,

potential development of a mine-mouth power plant, and

application of new technologies for monetizing deep-in-

ground stranded coal

• Acquire additional coal projects focusing on coking coal and

thermal coal in proximity to near-term infrastructure

development
