FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENT AND NATIONAL INSTRUMENT 43-101 COMPLIANCE
All statements in this presentation, other than statements of historical fact, are "forward-looking statements“ or “forward looking information” with respect to Tectonic Metals Inc. (the “Company”) within the meaning of applicable securities laws, including statements that address pro forma capitalization tables, the size and use of proceeds of any proposed financings, the discovery and development of gold deposits, potential size of a mineralized zone, potential expansion of mineralization and timing of exploration and development plans. Forward-looking information is often, but not always, identified by the use of words such as "seek", "anticipate", "plan", "continue", "planned", "expect", "project", "predict", "potential", "targeting", "intends", "believe", and similar expressions, or describes a "goal", or variation of such words and phrases or state that certain actions, events or results "may", "should", "could", "would", "might" or "will" be taken, occur or be achieved. Forward-looking information is not a guarantee of future performance and is based upon a number of estimates and assumptions of management at the date the statements are made including, among others, assumptions regarding timing of exploration and development plans at the Company’s mineral projects; timing and completion of proposed financings; timing and likelihood of deployment of additional drill rigs; successful delivery of results of metallurgical testing; the release of an initial resource report on any of our properties; assumptions about future prices of gold, copper, silver, and other metal prices; currency exchange rates and interest rates; metallurgical recoveries; favourable operating conditions; political stability; obtaining governmental approvals and financing on time; obtaining renewals for existing licences and permits and obtaining required licences and permits; labour stability; stability in market conditions; availability of equipment; accuracy of historical information; successful resolution of disputes and anticipated costs and expenditures. Many assumptions are based on factors and events that are not within the control of the Company and there is no assurance they will prove to be correct. Such forward-looking information involves known and unknown risks, which may cause the actual results to be materially different from any future results expressed or implied by such forward-looking information, including, but not limited to, the cost, timing and success of exploration activities generally, including the development of new deposits; possible variations in grade or recovery rates; failure of equipment or processes to operate as anticipated; the failure of contracted parties to perform; uses of funds in general including future capital expenditures, exploration expenditures and other expenses for specific operations; the timing, timeline and possible outcome of permitting or license renewal applications; government regulation of exploration and mining operations; environmental risks; the uncertainty of negotiating with foreign governments; expropriation or nationalization of property without fair compensation; adverse determination or rulings by governmental authorities; delays in obtaining governmental approvals; possible claims against the Company; the impact of archaeological, cultural or environmental studies within property areas; title disputes or claims; limitations on insurance coverage; the interpretation and actual results of historical operators at certain of our exploration properties; changes in project parameters as plans continue to be refined; current economic conditions; future prices of commodities; and delays in obtaining financing. The Company's forward-looking information reflect the beliefs, opinions and projections on the date the statements are made. The Company assumes no
The Company has implemented a rigorous Quality Assurance / Quality Control (QA/QC) program to ensure best practices in sampling and analysis of RAB drill, soil, rock, and stream sediment samples. All assays are performed by Bureau Veritas Commodities Canada Ltd., with sample preparation carried out at the BV facilities in Fairbanks, AK, USA. Assays are completed at either the Fairbanks laboratory or the Vancouver laboratory. All soil and stream samples at the Tibbs, Seventymile, and Northway properties were prepared using procedure SS80 (dry at 60 C and sieve 100g at -80 mesh) and analysed by method FA430 (30g fire assay with AAS finish) and MA300 (0.25g, multi acid digestion and ICP-ES analysis). All RAB drill, rock, trench, and pan concentrate samples at the Tibbs, Seventymile, and Northway properties were prepared using procedure PRP70-250 (crush, split, and pulverise 250g to 200 mesh) and analyzed by method FA430 and MA300. All samples containing >10 g/t Au were reanalyzed using method FA530 (30g Fire Assay with gravimetric finish). The Company makes no representation or warranty regarding the accuracy or completeness of any historical data from prior exploration undertaken by others other than the company and has not taken any steps to verify, the adequacy, accuracy or completeness of the information provided herein and, under no circumstances, will be liable for any inaccuracies or omissions in any such information or data, any delays or errors in the transmission thereof, or any loss or direct, indirect, incidental, special or consequential damages caused by reliance on this information or the risks arising from the stock market. The Qualified Person has reviewed and verified the data collected by the Company. For samples collected at the Tibbs, Seventymile, and Northway properties, QAQC samples were inserted into the sample submittals at a rate of approximately 1 QAQC sample per 10 assay samples (approximately 10%). Standards were inserted at a rate of approximately 8 standard samples per 100 assay samples (8%), blanks were inserted at a rate of approximately 2 blank samples per 100 assay samples (2%). For Rotary Air Blast (“RAB”) drilling, field duplicate samples are systematically collected at a rate of 3 duplicates per 100 assay samples (3%). A selection of standards were used which are commercially available from a reputable vendor (OREAS and Rocklabs). All standards ultimately returned acceptable values (within approximately 15% of the expected value, or approximately one standard deviation). Those standard samples which returned suspect values were re-run at the companies request. Blank samples consisted of Browns Hill Quarry basalt, an unmineralized Quaternary basalt flow from the Fairbanks Mining District, Alaska.

TIBBS PROJECT – EXPLORATION UPSIDE
▪ Michigan, Upper/Lower Trench and Wolverine Zones are genetically the same with identical:
‒ Au-As-Sb geochemical signatures ‒ Granodioritic host rocks ‒ Northeast-trending lineaments
▪ Mineralization in Upper Trench discovery hole is identical to Michigan discovery hole (M1 Structure) ▪ Structural analysis indicates that all three zones were originally connected as a single, >3km long structure ▪ Michigan and Upper Trench structures both interpreted to dip steeply to the northwest; therefore, Wolverine and Lower Trench historical drilling did not properly test the targets ▪ Visible gold found in many rock samples at Upper Trench and Michigan ▪ Wolverine is the largest, highest tenor soil anomaly on the Tibbs property, and was not properly drill tested

‒ Sumitomo attempted to trace the high-grade Gray Lead vein north;
however, drilling was unsuccessful
‒ Gray Lead remains open at depth and only drilled to 100m vertical
▪ Tectonic interpretation: Gray Lead vein is offset to east, beyond limits of historic drilling ▪ 2019: Tectonic drills 2.35 g/t Au over 6.1m in TBRB19-013 at the Hilltop/Oscar target ▪ Gold hosted by quartz vein with Au-As-Sb-Bi-W geochemical signature identical to Pogo style mineralization ▪ The Hilltop/Oscar target may represent the northern, offset extension of the historic Gray Lead vein ▪ Follow-up drilling required

▪ Lode gold deposits typically form along host structures, such as faults, which acted as channels for the flow of large volumes of hydrothermal fluids ▪ Common structural controls on mineralization associated with a high grade shear zone model were not drill tested at Seventymile incl. Flanders Zone
HIGH GRADE GOLD SHEAR ZONE MODEL
Tectonic is focusing on a “Greenstone-hosted quartz-carbonate vein” deposit model Block image is a schematic of the relationship between tension gash veins and major shears

SEVENTYMILE PROJECT
▪ Tectonic Validates Shear Zone Model at Flanders Prospect
‒ Historic drilling identified two, low angle
quartz-carbonate veins with visible gold, believed to be tension gash veins related to a larger structure
‒ These veins are adjacent to an interpreted
controlling structure at the contact between basalts and volcaniclastic sediments: high competency contrast
‒ Tectonic’s mag survey, power auger soil and
geoprobe (top of bedrock) sampling confirms mineralization at interpreted contact, where historic shovel soil samples returned no significant values
‒ This contact remains untested by drilling
▪ The newly-identified, interpreted shear zone is a priority drill target in 2020
