A Near-Term Development Opportunity • Dominant land package in the prolific Lac Dore (Chibougamau) camp • Excellent infrastructure (past permitted mill and tailings) • Numerous deposits with substantial upside: • Corner Bay – First drilling program successfully expanded ore resources by 97% • Cedar Bay – First drilling establishes maiden resource 1.9% Cu, 8.61g/t Au • Devlin Deposit – near surface deposit grading ~2.5% Cu • Dore Lake Ramp – high-grade gold/copper zone close to Copper Rand (mill) • Opportunity to further consolidate the camp through acquisition – numerous prospective gold and base metal in area. • Unique Copper/Gold deposits that provide commodity diversification • Quebec is one of the world’s most favourable mining jurisdictions with an attractive flow-through structure, experienced contractors and workers • AmAuCu to acquire up to an initial 80% interest through an earn-in arrangement from Ocean Partners by spending $10 million over 5.5 AuCu years and then one payment of $5 million in subsequent 2 years. Ocean Partners will represent a significant development partner for 2 future production and have 100% off take of Chibougamau production
