AGM – Yenipazar Au-Ag-Cu-Pb-Zn Project

Turkey: A Great Place for Mining

Politically stable, pro-mining, non-bureaucratic Excellent infrastructure roads, electricity, water, railways New, modern and western oriented mining code (2004) Low tax rate, tax incentives in our area, VAT re-payments

• 0.5-1 % effective royalty, 20 % corporate tax

One of the world’s last under explored mineral-rich regions Recent large discoveries include:

• EGO-T: Kisladag (254 Mt @ 0.95 g/t Au – 7.8 M oz Au = $10.7 B )
• ANO-T: Cöpler (90 Mt @ 1.87 g/t Au – 5.4 M oz Au = $7.4 B)
• ENK-ASX: Caldag (33 Mt @ 1.3 % Ni – 946 M lbs Ni = $9.8 B excluding Cobalt value)
• AGM-V: Yenipazar (+25 Mt @ 1.1 g/t Au, 33.8 g/t Ag +Zn+Pb+Cu = $4.3 B)

6

Contained metal:

854,400 oz of Au, 26.6m oz of Ag, 819m lbs of Zn, 624m lbs of Pb and 167m lbs of Cu.

In-ground metal value at current prices:

Accomplishments in 2010

Raised C$5m in a private placement attracting the first institutional investors in

Aldridge (Jan - $1.00 unit with full warrant for two years at $1.50)

Restructured the board and management – 5 Directors out, 5 Directors in –

all new directors based in Toronto and have significant knowledge and experience in Canadian capital markets

Revised our earn-in agreement with Anatolia on Yenipazar Gained analyst coverage from Mackie Research and Clarus Securities, both

with target prices nearly 2x our current share price

Completed infill drilling and collected metallurgical samples Completed 43-101 complitant PEA in December (commenced in mid July) Relocated our corporate offices to Toronto from Vancouver Hired IR groups Ascend Communication and Profinnotiv for NA and Europe

respectively

Yenipazar Key Parametres

Large land package — 100 km2 property that has seen very limited

exploration, level and low-relief, open terrain used predominantly for farming

Local support — Near-by village with pro-mining work force and strong

community support. Local unskilled labour rate is US$20/day – farmers earn less than that. AGM has been working in the area since 2004.

Agreement with Anatolia — to earn 100 % interest. Anatolia

Minerals retains 6 % net proceeds interest (revenue minus operational cost) until a total revenue of US$165m, and 10% beyond that amount

Commitment — Aldridge must deliver a feasibility to Anatolia. The

agreement remains valid without time limit, as long as Aldridge works diligently towards completing feasibility study.

Project Details

Open pit project — volcanogenic massive sulphide (VMS) Zn-Pb-Cu-Au-

Ag deposit. Robust economics as demonstrated by our PEA.

Solid Resource Base — +24 Mt within an optimized open pit shell. This

puts Yenipazar in the 90th percentile of all known VMS deposits as far as size

Great Infrastructure — paved road next to the deposit, as well as

access to water. Power and rail within approximately 20 km

Unique characteristic — Large ore mineral grains due to

metamorphism – potentially more cost-efficient separation from host rock than usual VMS-deposits

Deposit dimensions — roughly flat lying body should allow for flexible

mine sequencing to optimize early payback - 1700 m long, up to 300 m wide, 30-190 m deep, on average about 25-30 m thick. Still open, especially to the north of the deposit

Scoping Study Highlights

Base Case NPV US$209m & IRR of 23.2 at 7% discount rate

• At 10% discount rate, NPV US$151m or $4.07per basic share, $2.93 a

share fully diluted. (Exercising all options and warrants brings in C $23.5m)

• Base cases uses 3-year trailing average metal prices and 4.5:1 strip including

pre-strip and capex of US$198m for a 12 year mine life assuming 5,700 tpd mill (2m tpa).

• Average payable production of 23,700 oz Au, 1.1m oz Ag, 10m lbs Cu, 37m

lbs Pb, 37m lbs Zn from diluted average grades of 1.02 g/t Au, 31.6 g/t Ag, 0.29% Cu, 1.1% Pb, 1.4% Zn

• Zn conc grades 55%, Pb conc grades 55% & 1025 g/t Ag, Cu conc grades

23% with 20 g/t gold & 337 g/t Ag

• Project payback in 3.9 years. LOM average NSR US$57.27/t, LOM average

total operating cost $29.65/t.

• At current metal prices NPV over US$554m and IRR of over 51.51%

Revenue by payable metal production

Scoping Study Lowlights

Base case used results of ONE locked cycle flotation test

• Recoveries: Zn 59%, Pb 78%, Cu 77% - well below average for Zn – need to

be improved – Proper floatation study to be completed soon (60 – 90 days)

• Recoveries: Au 37%, Ag 57% - both should be improved. Have three separate

solutions to improve these.

• A doubling of gold recoveries would double the base case NPV (i.e. US

$302m at 10% or $8.14 / basic share)

• A 10% increase in recoveries of each of the 5 metals would result in a

52% increase in our base case NPV.

• Assumed smelter payability of Au and Ag in the Cu conc were only 90% and

80%; should get 95% for both

• Assumed payability of Ag in the Pb conc was only 85%; should get 90% - 95%

Future Milestones for Aldridge

Commence feasibility study at Yenipazar – Announced June 23, requires 12 to

18 months.

Complete the floatation study to improve recoveries and determine which

smelters or off-takers to target with our concentrates – Report in July

Complete drilling and conduct extensive geophysics at Yenipazar to upgrade

resources and to discover new deposits – Results expected mid August

Drill our PNG exploration discovery – Results expected mid September Graduate to the TSX and complete an AIF – Targeting October

Aldridge PNG – The Kili Teke Discovery

Recognized significant mineralization potential in one of the most prospective

areas of PNG between Porgera and Ok Tedi.

Acquired a 338 sq. km license awarded in Feb 2009. Received 3 requests from

majors to JV the property before any results published.

Identified two highly interesting mag anomalies similar to Porgera. AGM

completed a 4 week mapping and sampling campaign that outlined a Cu-Au system within a 10 km alteration footprint, then followed up with further sampling.

Discovered a very large Cu-Au porphyry & skarn system named Kili Teke. The

sampling results here were far above our expectations with two rock samples grading between 23% - 35% Cu with an average of 60 g/t Au and 238 g/t Ag; 13 samples grading from 1.0% - 12.9% Cu with an average of 0.44 g/t Au and 3.8 g/t Ag; 28 samples grading from 0.3% - 1.0% Cu with an average of 0.39 g/t Au and 3.8 g/t Ag. Also had one sample grade 9.1% zinc.
