TECHNICAL INFORMATION Technical information relating to the Altan Tsagaan Ovoo Project (the “ATO Project”) contained in this presentation is derived from, and in some instances is an extract from, the Technical Report titled “Altan Tsagaan Ovoo Gold Project, Tsagaan Ovoo, Dornod, Mongolia” dated August 20, 2017, with an effective date of June 20, 2017, which was prepared for the Company by Oyungerel Bayanjargal, MAusIMM of GSTATS Consulting Ltd (the “Technical Report”) and prepared in accordance with National Instrument 43-101 — Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects (“NI 43-101”). Reference should be made to the full text of the Technical Report which has been filed with certain Canadian securities regulatory authorities pursuant to NI 43-101 and is available for review under the Company’s profile on SEDAR at www.sedar.com. Technical information in this presentation not contained in the Technical Report has been prepared under the supervision of Matthew Wood, President and CEO of the Company and a “qualified person” under NI 43-101. CAUTIONARY NOTE FOR UNITED STATES INVESTORS Technical disclosure regarding our properties included herein (the “Technical Disclosure”) has not been prepared in accordance with the requirements of United States securities laws. Without limiting the foregoing, the Technical Disclosure uses terms that comply with reporting standards in Canada and certain estimates are made in accordance with NI 43-101. NI 43-101 is a rule developed by the Canadian Securities Administrators that establishes standards for all public disclosure an issuer makes of scientific and technical information concerning mineral projects. Unless otherwise indicated, all mineral reserve and mineral resource estimates contained in the Technical Dis- closure have been prepared in accordance with NI 43-101 and the Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy and Petroleum Classification System. These standards differ significantly from the requirements of SEC Industry Guide 7, and resource information contained in the Technical Disclosure may not be comparable to similar information disclosed by U.S. companies. The definitions of proven and probable reserves used in NI 43-101 differ from the definitions in SEC Industry Guide 7. In addition, the terms “mineral resource”, “measured mineral resource”, “indicated mineral resource” and “inferred mineral resource” are defined in and required to be disclosed by NI 43-101; however, these terms are not defined terms under SEC Industry Guide 7 and normally are not permitted to be used in reports and registration statements filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Investors are cautioned not to assume that any part or all of mineral deposits in these categories will ever be converted into reserves. “Inferred mineral resources” have a great amount of uncertainty as to their existence, and great uncertainty as to their economic and legal feasibility. It cannot be assumed that all or any part of an inferred mineral resource will ever be upgraded to a higher category. Under Canadian securities laws, estimates of inferred mineral resources may not form the basis of feasibility or pre-feasibility studies, except in rare cases. Additionally, disclosure of “contained ounces” in a resource is permitted disclosure under Canadian securities laws, however the SEC normally only permits issuers to report mineralization that does not constitute “reserves” by SEC standards as in place tonnage and grade without reference to unit measurements. Accordingly, information contained in the Technical Disclosure may not be comparable to similar information made public by U.S. companies subject to the reporting and disclosure requirements of United States federal securities laws and the rules and regulations thereunder.

7 Notes: AuEq has been calculated using assumed metal prices ($1,306.6/oz for gold, $21.6/oz for silver, $1,844/t for lead and $1,944/t for zinc). Oxide ore calculation: AuEq(g/t) = Au(g/t) + (Ag(g/t) x 21.6 x 0.0321507 x 0.4) / (1,306.6 x 0.0321507 x 0.7) Fresh ore calculation: AuEq(g/t) = Au(g/t) + ((Ag(g/t) x 21.6 x 0.0321507 x 0.75) + (Pb% x 1,844 x 10-6 x 0.6) + (Zn% x 1,944 x 10-6 x 0.55)) / (1,306.6 x 0.0321507 x 0.71) * Cash costs exclude refining charges and royalties.

Notes:

  • 1. ATO Mineral Reserves and Mineral Resources are as at August 21, 2017 using the CIM Definition Standards (2014).
  • 2. Mineral Resources are in addition to Mineral Reserves.
  • 3. Mineral Reserves are constrained within an optimized pit shell based on a gold price of $1,300 per ounce.
  • 4. Mineral Resources that are not Mineral Reserves do not have demonstrated economic viability for heap leaching.
  • 5. Contained gold estimates have not been adjusted for metallurgical recoveries.
  • 6. Recovered gold estimates have been adjusted for metallurgical recoveries based on 70% for Au and 40% for Ag.
  • 7. Mining dilution is 3% and Ore loss is 2%.
  • 8. Mineral Reserves and Mineral Resources are estimated using a 0.3 g/t AuEq cut-off grade for oxide material and a 1.1 g/t AuEq. Cut-off grade for fresh material.
  • 9. A conversion factor of 31.103477 grams per ounce 453.59237 grams per pound are used in the reserve and resource estimates.
  • 10. AuEq has been calculated using assumed metal prices ($1,306.6/oz for gold, $21.6/oz).

Oxide ore calculation: AuEq(g/t) = Au(g/t) + (Ag(g/t) x 21.6 x 0.0321507 x 0.4) / (1,306.6 x 0.0321507 x 0.7) Fresh ore calculation: AuEq(g/t) = Au(g/t) + ((Ag(g/t) x 21.6 x 0.0321507 x 0.75) + (Pb% x 1,844 x 10-6 x 0.6) + (Zn% x 1,944 x 10-6 x 0.55)) / (1,306.6 x 0.0321507 x 0.71)

  • 11. Inferred Mineral Resources have a great amount of uncertainty as to their existence and as to whether they can be mined economically. It cannot be assumed that all or part of the Inferred Mineral Resources will ever be upgraded to a higher category.
  • 12. Totals may not match due to rounding.
