Cautionary Statements

Forward-Looking Information

This presentation contains statements or information concerning the business, operations and financial performance and condition of Wesdome Gold Mines Ltd. (“Wesdome” or the “Company”) which constitute forward-looking statements or information (collectively, “forward-looking statements”) within the meaning of applicable Canadian securities legislation. Forward-looking statements relate to future events or the anticipated performance the Company and reflect management’s expectations or beliefs regarding such future events and anticipated performance as of the date of this presentation. Forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements with respect to the timing and amount of future production, costs of production, targeted cost reductions, capital expenditures, the success of exploration activities, permitting time lines, government regulation of mining operations, the future price of gold and other minerals, and the timing and issuance of

  • permits. Generally, forward-looking information can be identified by the use of words such as “plans”, “expects”, “is expected”, “budget”,

“scheduled”, “estimates”, “forecasts”, “intends”, “anticipates”, “believes” and variations of such words and phrases or statements that certain actions, events, or results “may”, “could”, “would”, “might”, or “will”, “occur” or “be achieved” or the negative connotation thereof. By their nature, forward-looking statements involve numerous assumptions, inherent risks and uncertainties, both general and specific, that contribute to the possibility that the predicted outcomes could differ materially from those contained in such statements. These risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, fluctuations in prices of commodities, fluctuations in currency markets, actual results of additional exploration and development activities at the Company’s projects, the timing and amount of estimated future production and the costs thereof, capital expenditures, the availability of any additional capital required to bring future projects into production, the failure of plant, equipment or processes to operate as anticipated, accidents, or labour disputes. Risks and uncertainties about Wesdome’s business are more fully discussed in the disclosure material filed with the securities regulatory authorities in Canada and available on SEDAR under the Company’s profile at www.sedar.com. Readers are urged to read these materials and should not place undue reliance on the forward-looking statements contained in this presentation.

Corporate Strategy

Near Term

  • Stabilize and improve

Wawa operations through mine development of additional high grade zones, providing greater production flexibility

  • Operational

improvements such as ventilation, power, and equipment

  • Ongoing mine

exploration to diversify production locations

Longer Term

  • Pipeline of

development projects:

  • Early success at

brownfields exploration at Kiena Complex (shaft and permitted mill)

  • Commenced drill

program at newly consolidated Moss Lake property

  • Near-mine

exploration on surface at Eagle River and step

  • ut at Mishi Open Pit

Objective

  • Potential for

diversified production from three mines in two provinces, Ontario and Quebec

  • Increased output and

lowered costs

  • Maximizing the

potential of all the assets
