  1. Mace Deposit, Galway, Ireland MOAG Copper Gold Resources Inc Paul Gordon MSc PGeo EurGeol SLR Consulting

  2. Background ⬤ Mace Head, Co. Galway (Connemara), west of Ireland ⬤ Granite-hosted, Mo-Cu mineralisation in quartz veins ⬤ Discovered in 1960s, no follow-up until 2014 ⬤ SLR acts as project manager on MOAG’s behalf

  3. Regional Geology ⬤ Hosted in Caledonian Galway Granite batholith ⬤ Mineralisation coeval (± 5ma) with granite emplacement (410 ma) ⬤ Local Geology: Carna Granite suite, intruded into roof of main batholith

  4. Hunt, 2006

  5. District Scale Geology

  6. Drilling (42 DDHs, >7000m) ⬤ 2014 – Six drill holes to confirm presence and nature of mineralisation ⬤ 2015 – 25 drill holes to ascertain extent of mineralisation ⬤ 2016 – 11 drill holes for infill, to assist in resource definition

  7. Mineralisation & Alteration ⬤ Quartz veins, millimetre scale to metre ⬤ Primary veins are vertical to sub-vertical ⬤ Primary economic minerals are molybdenite and chalcopyrite ⬤ Classic porphyry style potassic, phyllic and propylitic alteration associated with mineralisation ⬤ Possibly in upper part of porphyry ⬤ Similarities to Moly Brook, Newfoundland

  11. Drilling Results– Mo:Cu Voxel (clipped) NE SW

  12. Locality/Environmental/Community ⬤ Paved roads give immediate access to project area ⬤ National route N59 within 7km ⬤ On electrical grid ⬤ 5km from Carna village ⬤ <1km from small fishing harbour, 30km by sea or 40km by road from commercial fishing port ⬤ Regulatory/policy support in place ⬤ No Natura 2000 sites in immediate vicinity of deposit ⬤ Broad community support to date

  13. Summary ⬤ Porphyry-style mineralisation and alteration (Mo-Cu) ⬤ Interpreted to be in upper part of deeper porphyry system ⬤ Potentially economic mineralisation ⬤ NI 43-101 Technical Report under preparation for delivery in Q2 2017
