Adrian Day Asset Management caters to discriminating global investors. Above all, our clients believe
deeply in the investment principle of "value". But they also want a money management firm that does more
than pay lip service to a global view of investing. Adrian Day Asset Management is a firm whose solutions
reflect individual investment needs. Our clients have worked hard to earn their wealth and we believe they
deserve more than a one-size-fits-all investment approach. They should, in our opinion, be greeted with
recognition by their money manager, as opposed to feeling like an anonymous account number. The firm
offers individual accounts in both global markets and resources.
Representative and Presenter: Adrian Day is Founder and Chief Executive Officer, of the
eponymous money management firm Adrian Day Asset Management, where he manages
discretionary accounts in both global and resource areas.
He is considered a pioneer in promoting the benefits of global investing in this country.
A native of London, after graduating with honors from the London School of Economics, Mr.
Day spent many years as a financial investment writer, where he gained a large following for his expertise
in searching out unusual investment opportunities around the world.
Day has also authored three books on the subject of global investing: International Investment
Opportunities: How and Where to Invest Overseas Successfully and Investing Without Borders. His latest
book, widely praised by readers, is Investing in Resources: How to Profit from the Outsized Potential and
Avoid the Risks (Wiley, 2010).
He is frequently interviewed by the press, domestically and abroad. He is a popular presenter and
frequently invited to lecture at financial conferences and seminars around the world. His pleasures include
fine dining, reading (especially history) and the opera.

Alexandria Minerals Corporation is a growth-oriented, Canadian gold exploration company with a high-
quality portfolio of strategically located properties in the mineral-rich mining districts of Val d’Or,
(Québec), Red Lake (Ontario) and Snow Lake-Flin Flon (Manitoba). Alexandria’s focus is on its flagship
property – a 100%-owned continuous 35-km-long land package of claims straddling the prolific gold-
producing Cadillac Break in Val d’Or, which hosts important, near-surface, gold resources. With one of the
largest land packages in the region, an industry-leading cost-of-discovery and strategic shareholders which
include Sprott Capital Markets, Agnico Eagle, IAMGOLD and Teck, Alexandria is positioned to discover
the next open pit mine.
The exploration focus in 2017 is in the Orenada Zone 4 area south of Integra Gold's Triangle project.
Alexandria will commence drilling with three rigs on Orenada Zone 4, thereby expediting the process of
discovery. Alexandria’s properties are within 20 km of 5 under-capacity mills. Agnico-Eagle has a road
onto Alexandria’s property and can truck ore less than 20 km to its Goldex mill.
Alexandria’s Global Resources total 2.3 million ounces of gold. With cash and current assets of $8 million,
the Company is well financed, particularly as a result of financings by strategic investors such as Eric Sprott
who made a $2 million strategic investment into Alexandria in April 2017 through a company beneficially
owned by him.
Alexandria’s exploration team has a proven track record and can be credited for discovering Québec’s next
gold mine: Alexandria sold 14 claims in its West Zone Au-Cu deposit to Agnico Eagle Mines Limited – a
committed, leading international gold producer and a major strategic investor in Alexandria – for $5 million
plus 2% NSR.
Representative and Presenter: Eric Owens, President and CEO, co-founded Alexandria
Minerals and has guided the company to its present status as one of the principal explorers in
Val d’Or, Québec. With 27 years of experience in the mineral exploration industry in North
America, Mexico and Central America, he previously held positions with Newmont Mining,
BHP Minerals, Phelps Dodge, and Echo Bay. His accomplishments include the discovery
holes at the El Zapote silver deposit in El Salvador, definition drilling of the American Girl and Madre-
Padre gold mines in California, and at the Brookbank gold project in northern Ontario. Under his direction,
Alexandria has discovered 2.3 million ounces of gold on their principal property since 2007.

Almaden Minerals Ltd. is a well-financed company which owns 100% of the Tuligtic project in Puebla
State, Mexico. Tuligtic covers the Ixtaca gold-silver deposit, which was discovered by Almaden in 2010.
The project has been advanced from a blind discovery to its current position as an outstanding inventory of
precious metals with a very robust economic profile. Our focus is now on advancing and developing this
deposit through permitting, more advanced engineering and continued drilling of portions of the Ixtaca
deposit that remain open as well as other targets on what remains a largely unexplored property.
Duane Poliquin and his son Morgan believe that successful exploration makes a positive social difference,
by education and employing local people and financing projects that are important to them.
Presenter: Morgan Poliquin, Ph.D., P.Eng. President and CEO, graduated from the UBC
Geological Engineering program in 1994. He earned his Masters of Science in Geology at
the University of Auckland, studying geothermal systems and epithermal gold deposits and
his Ph.D. in Geology from the University of Exeter (Camborne School of Mines) studying
the geology and mineral deposits of eastern Mexico. His Ph.D. research was combined with
the prospecting program he led in Eastern Mexico for the Company. This exploration
directly led to the Company’s involvement in the Caballo Blanco and Ixtaca projects and the subsequent
discoveries made on these projects. Morgan first came to work with his father at Almaden after finishing
his Master's degree in 1996. Morgan is the President and CEO of Almaden and with Duane manages the
corporate and technical direction of Almaden. Morgan oversees and directs the company's prospecting and
property exploration programs.

Amerigo’s 100% owned MVC operation in Chile has been producing copper concentrates since 1992 by
processing tailings from Codelco’s El Teniente mine, the world’s largest-known underground copper
mine. In 2016, MVC produced 56.8 million pounds of copper at a cash cost of $1.73 per pound.
Development of the historic higher grade Cauquenes tailings deposit has extended MVC’s life to at least
2037. With the first phase of expansion at Cauquenes completed in December 2105, on schedule and under
budget, Amerigo is well-positioned to generate record copper production, decrease cash costs and improve
cash flow from operations. Amerigo expects to complete the construction of the phase two expansion
project in the second half of 2018. The project has an estimated cost of $30.0 million and is planned to
increase production to 87.0 million pounds of copper per year, at an estimated cash cost of $1.40/lb. In
2017, MVC expects to produce 60 to 65 million pounds of copper, at an annual cash cost of $1.60 to $1.75
per pound. MVC also expects to produce 1.5 million pounds of molybdenum. Amerigo’s shares are listed
for trading on the Toronto Stock Exchange (“TSX”) and the OTCQX Stock Exchange in the United States.
Representative at the event: Rob Henderson, President & CEO was appointed Chief Executive Officer of
Amerigo Resources on October 1, 2015. He joined the company in 2012 as Chief Operating Officer with

NPV5% ~ C$224M and 35.7% IRR. Minimum 8.5 year mine life producing ~ 87,000 oz./yr. AISC
C$690/oz. Au (~US$520/oz. Au). 1.9 year after-tax payback (C$137M). Production targeted for Q4 2017.
A focus on risk management with key differentiators: Management own +35% and a senior company team
in a junior package. EPC fixed price turnkey contracts pass capex over-run risk to contractor’s balance
sheet. Upside comes from the potential to substantially increase MRC production and extend project life
from: Current resources at Cochrane Hill and Fifteen Mile Stream > 1.1m oz.’s in indicated and inferred.

For over a quarter of a century, legendary investor and best-selling author Doug Casey and his team at
Casey Research have been helping self-directed investors to earn superior returns through innovative
investment research designed to take advantage of market dislocations.
Current advisories include: The Casey Report, International Speculator, Crisis Investing, and Casey
Extraordinary Technology.
Presenters:
Doug Casey, Founder of Casey Research is a best-selling author, world-renowned
speculator, and libertarian philosopher. Doug has garnered a well-earned reputation for his
erudite (and often controversial) insights into politics, economics, and investment markets.
Doug is widely respected as one of the preeminent authorities on “rational speculation,”
especially in the high-potential natural resource sector.
Doug literally wrote the book on profiting from periods of economic turmoil: his book Crisis Investing
spent multiple weeks as #1 on the New York Times bestseller list and became the best-selling financial book
of 1980 with 438,640 copies sold; surpassing big-caliber names, like Free to Choose by Milton Friedman,
The Real War by Richard Nixon, and Cosmos by Carl Sagan.
Then Doug broke the record with his next book, Strategic Investing, by receiving the largest advance ever
paid for a financial book at the time. Interestingly enough, Doug’s book The International Man was the
most sold book in the history of Rhodesia. Recent releases Totally Incorrect (2012) and Right on the Money
(2013) continue the tradition of challenging statism and advocating liberty and free markets. But his latest
book, Speculator, Book 1 in the High Ground series, is Doug’s first novel - a thrilling tale of international
intrigue.
He has been a featured guest on hundreds of radio and TV shows, including David Letterman, Merv Griffin,
Charlie Rose, Phil Donahue, Regis Philbin, Maury Povich, NBC News, and CNN, has been the topic of
numerous features in periodicals such as Time, Forbes, People, and the Washington Post; and is a regular
keynote speaker at FreedomFest, the world's largest gathering of free minds.
Doug has lived in 10 countries and visited over 175. Today you're most likely to find him at La Estancia de
Cafayate (Casey’s Gulch), an oasis tucked away in the high red mountains outside Salta, Argentina.
Cafayate most resembles the isolating beauty of Bryce Canyon, Utah combined with the lush vineyards of
Napa Valley. Residents enjoy economic and social freedoms not found in the US and some of the best wine
and golf on the planet.
Louis James’ background in physics, economics, and technical writing prepared him well
for his role as managing editor of the International Speculator and Casey Investment Alert
newsletters. Like Doug Casey, Louis constantly travels the world, visiting highly
prospective geological targets, grilling management and company geologists, and
interviewing natives in a variety of languages to find out what they really think (he's fluent
in French and Spanish, and speaks a little German and Russian). He evaluates dozens of
companies every month, conducts due diligence of only the best, and then compares notes with Doug in
order to bring only those most likely to provide rapid high returns to our subscribers’ attention.
Casey Research is a subscription-based publisher of financial research. Founded by legendary investor and
best-selling author Doug Casey, it publishes advisories that recommend investments in precious metals,
commodities, stocks and options. Doug and his team have been helping readers make money investing for
over a quarter century.

ASX: DYL
Deep Yellow Limited (DYL: ASX /DYLFF: OTC) is a clearly differentiated, uranium exploration
company rejuvenated by the appointment of John Borshoff, founder of Paladin, as CEO in October 2016.
The proven management has demonstrated performance that it is able to deliver on both vision and create
considerable shareholder wealth.
The Company has a two-pronged strategy founded firstly on growing the existing uranium resources
across its uranium projects in Namibia and secondly, to pursue accretive counter cyclical acquisitions
to build a global, multi-project uranium platform much needed with the diminishment of the major
producers that has occurred.
Namibia, where Deep Yellow has its cornerstone suite of projects, is a top ranked uranium mining
destination. It holds 4 large tenements in the heart of what is a world recognized, prospective uranium
province of high significance situated amongst the major uranium deposits of the region. Significant
achievements in 2017 include negotiation of a landmark A$4.5M joint venture with the minerals investment
arm of the Japanese government, JOGMEC where it can earn 39.5% interest over 2 tenements; and the
announcement of a new exciting palaeochannel related uranium discovery on its 100% owned project. This
discovery highlights the significance of the newly identified 100km of highly prospective palaeochannel
extending from this new deposit where numerous new targets remain to be drill tested.
In parallel with its exploration objectives, the overall strategy is to establish a new generation uranium
platform through selective acquisitions, taking advantage of the current depressed uranium environment and
create a globally significant play with a geographically diversified advanced project pipeline containing a
cornerstone project in Namibia. Supported by Sprott, Deep Yellow recently completed a very successful
$15M capital raising, providing the base for its exploration and acquisition growth plans going forward.
Presenter: John Borshoff, Managing Director and CEO, was appointed to the
role in October 2016. Mr. Borshoff is an experienced mining executive and

Fission is the most awarded uranium explorer in the world. It owns the PLS project in Canada’s Athabasca
Basin, which is host to the Triple R deposit – the only major, high-grade deposit in the region that is near-
surface. The deposit, together with three additional high-grade, shallow-depth zones that are not currently
included in the resource estimate, is part of a 3.17km mineralized trend – the largest in the region. A new,
high-grade zone was discovered nearly 1.5 km west of the Triple R deposit, during the most recent drill
program. Multiple exploration hot spots have been identified throughout the property and exploration
drilling is ongoing.
Fission has won the industry’s top awards, including The Northern Miner’s Mining Person/s of the Year,
PDAC’s Bill Dennis Award and The Mining Journal’s Excellence Award. Most recently, The Mining
Journal ranked PLS as the top undeveloped uranium project in the world. Headed up by CEO Dev
Randhawa, the company has made two major uranium discoveries in three years. President and Chief
Geologist, Ross McElroy, has been instrumental in five of the last ten major discoveries in the basin. In
January, 2016, CGN Mining invested $82M (cash) in Fission at a premium, ensuring the company is very
well-funded.
The management team is led by CEO & Chairman, Dev Randhawa and Ross McElroy, COO, President &
Chief Geologist. Mr. Randhawa and Mr. McElroy have successfully built the Fission name into one of the
world’s leading uranium explorers. In 2013, Mr. Randhawa was named Finance Monthly’s “Dealmaker of

Hot Chili (ASX: HCH) may become the next major ASX-listed copper producer, with the Pre-feasibility
study on its Productora copper project in Chile completed in March 2016.
The Company owns the rapidly growing Productora copper project in Chile, where resources already stand
at 1.47 million tonnes of copper and 0.98 million ounces of gold.
A reserve of 166.9Mt has been established underpinning a long life, bulk open pit production, over a 10-
year mine life, with the first 8 years of production averaging 66kt copper and 25koz gold annually.
A cutting-edge IP/ MT geophysical survey conducted at Productora in 2015 revealed six large copper
porphyry targets, comprising five new large copper porphyry targets, and extensions to the previously
discovered Alice porphyry copper deposit.
Initial reconnaissance Reverse Circulation (RC) drilling to test the large porphyry copper targets was
completed in April 2017, providing key lithological and alteration information, crucial for vectoring and
refinement of drill targets. Encouraging early results from the initial RC drilling campaign has enabled a
targeted campaign of diamond drilling to be planned, which is expected to commence shortly.
Drilling is being undertaken by Blue Spec Sondajes Chile (Blue Spec, associated with Hot Chili’s Chairman
Murray Black) at their own risk and at no cost to Hot Chili. Blue Spec’s offer to initiate and undertake
drilling over Productora’s porphyry copper targets begins an exciting new phase of growth for Hot Chili.
The Company believes the porphyry copper targets could be game changing for Productora with the
potential to transform the project, providing further scale and mine life, and substantially enhancing the
projects economics.

The Kamoa Copper Discovery in a previously unknown extension of the Central African
Copperbelt in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC).
The Platreef Discovery of platinum, palladium, nickel, copper, gold and rhodium on the
Northern Limb of the Bushveld Complex in South Africa.
The historic, high-grade Kipushi zinc-copper mine, also on the Copperbelt in the DRC.
Presenter: Robert M. Friedland, Founder and Executive Chairman of Ivanhoe Mines
For more than 25 years, international financier Robert Friedland has been recognized by
leaders of the international financial sector and mineral resource industries as an
entrepreneurial explorer, technology innovator and company builder. Mr. Friedland has
successfully developed a portfolio of respected public and private companies whose initiatives have led to
several of the world’s most significant mineral discoveries and mine developments, applications of
disruptive technologies and contributions to significant economic growth in established and emerging
markets in Asia, the Asia Pacific Region, Sub-Saharan Africa and the Americas.
Mr. Friedland’s enterprise and leadership gained prominent, industry recognition in January 2016 when he
was inducted into the prestigious Canadian Mining Hall of Fame. The citation acknowledged his
company-building and exploration achievements, honouring him as “a dynamic, transformative force in
the Canadian and international mining industries” and “one of the most recognized mining personalities
and achievers in the world”. Mr. Friedland said at the ceremony that he shared the honour with several
teams of dedicated individuals whose efforts with his companies during the past 30 years had contributed to
a series of notable discoveries and new mines. Housed at the University of Toronto, the Hall of Fame is
featured in the Treasures from Earth galleries at the Royal Ontario Museum, Toronto
In May 2017, Mr. Friedland received a Lifetime Achievement Award during the Canadian Mining
Symposium at Canada House in London, England — a career recognition by the Northern Miner, the
century-old flagship of Canada’s leading mining-industry media group.
From its founding in 1994, the Ivanhoe Mines enterprise brand has evolved as Mr. Friedland’s pre-
eminent, publicly traded flagship for international mining and mineral exploration. He has served variously
as the company’s Executive Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer.
Between 1996 and 2012, the inaugural Ivanhoe Mines and its subsidiaries conducted or participated in
mining operations in Mongolia, Australia, China, Myanmar, South Korea and Fiji, and built a large
shareholder base through listings on North America’s Toronto, New York and NASDAQ stock exchanges.
In 1998, Mr. Friedland founded Ivanplats to advance mineral prospects in Sub-Saharan Africa. As
Executive Chairman, Mr. Friedland led Ivanplats’ successful initial public offering in 2012 that raised
CDN$306 million (US$308 million) from international investors. It was the largest Canadian mining IPO in
more than two years. Ivanplats subsequently assumed the ‘Ivanhoe Mines’ name in a strategic corporate
alignment in 2013 as the company was structuring an organization to manage its three concurrent mine
development projects and ongoing exploration programs. Mr. Friedland is Executive Chairman of the
successor Ivanhoe Mines, a renewed and refocused explorer and mine builder whose shares trade on
Canada’s Toronto Stock Exchange and the OTCQX Best Market in the United States.
Today, construction is underway on Ivanhoe’s 64%-owned Platreef state-of-the-art, underground platinum-
palladium-gold-nickel-copper mine on the company’s tier-one Flatreef discovery in South Africa’s
renowned Bushveld Complex, where established mines already produce more than 70% of the world's
annual platinum output. South African black-economic-empowerment partners hold a 26% stake in the
Platreef Project and 10% is held by a Japanese consortium led by Itochu Corp. and including the Japanese
government’s Japan Oil, Gas and Metals National Corporation, ITC Platinum Development and JGC
Corporation.
In the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), Ivanhoe Mines and its joint-venture partner Zijin Mining
Group, of China, are developing the tier-one Kamoa-Kakula Project - now independently ranked as the
largest copper discovery in the history of mining on the African continent and the world’s largest high-
grade copper discovery. Initial construction of the planned Kansoko Mine is underway at one of the
project’s two deposits; ongoing exploration drilling is significantly expanding identified resources at the
Kakula Deposit. In December 2015, Zijin agreed to invest US$412 million to acquire an interest in the
Kamoa-Kakula Project. Ivanhoe and Zijin now each hold a 39.6% interest in the project and the DRC
government has a 20% stake.
Ivanhoe’s third development project, also in the DRC, is the extensive upgrading of the historic Kipushi
Mine, which originally began production in 1924 and is recognized as one of the world’s richest former
zinc-copper producers. A January 2016 independent Mineral Resources estimate reported that Kipushi’s
zinc grades of 35% are more than twice as high as the world’s next-highest-grade zinc project. Kipushi,
with 68% owned by Ivanhoe and 32% by state-owned Gécamines, is projected to become one of the
world’s 10 largest zinc producers after it resumes production.

prospects in West Africa including the Bongou in Burkina Faso (184,000oz JORC resource plus 500,000oz
Exploration Target within 10km radius) and the new Nyangboue gold discovery (Toro Gold JV) in Cote
D'Ivoire (near-surface intercepts include 20m at 10.5g/t Au, 20m at 4.8g/t Au). The Company follows a
project generator strategy, with joint ventures in place or in advanced stages of negotiation on projects that
require substantial drilling and/or feasibility stage expenditure. At the same time, Predictive continues to
acquire new West African ground to explore in its own right.
NEAR TERM OBJECTIVES
In the next 12 months, the Company will focus on securing highly prospective new ground positions in
West Africa and carrying out geochemical, geophysical and reconnaissance drilling programs on them. At
the same time, it will actively manage its growing group of joint ventures to maximize the benefit to
Predictive shareholders while maintaining meaningful equities (30-40%) in its more advanced West African
projects. Key milestones will be (1) initiation of infill drilling programs and feasibility-related studies on a
joint venture covering the current Burkina Faso ground, (2) completion of infill and extension drilling on
the Nyangboue prospect in Cote D'Ivoire, (3) positive drill results on the Bobosso Project in Cote D'Ivoire
(funded by JV partner, Progress Minerals) and other project areas in the Toro Joint Venture (e.g.
Kokoumbo, Ferkessedougou), (4) acquisition of new, high potential exploration gold projects in West
Africa and release of geochemical and drill results from first phase work programs there.

Prospero Silver is a Project Generator, focused on finding world-class precious metal projects in Mexico.
Our highly experienced technical team applies a unique blend of practical exploration experience and
cutting-edge science in their discovery programs. Our low-cost exploration programs are based on 60+
years of in-country experience. We have a strong portfolio of drill-ready targets, with a pipeline of
additional projects. Our focus is on the great Altiplano mineral belt in northern Mexico, a region our team
knows well.
Prospero is identifying “blind” targets where the present level of erosion lies above, but relatively close, to
the top of the precious metal ore zone. After hundreds of years of exploration and prospecting, Mexico's
exploration history has now evolved and matured to a level that requires the application of modern, multi-
disciplinary geologic tools to look for concealed targets and we believe deep targets represent the real
untapped potential in the country’s mineral belts.
Some project generators prefer never to drill their projects and focus on joint venturing them all. We’re not
that extreme in our approach and we’ll happily consider drilling targets that we think have particular
technical merit so long as we can do it cost-effectively. So in April 2017, we secured a C$1.5-million
strategic investment from Fortuna Silver Mines Inc. -- a growth oriented mid-tier precious metals producer-
to fund first-pass, proof-of-concept drilling on 3 of our key targets and to support our generative exploration
effort.

TSX: SVM
Silvercorp is a low-cost silver-producing Canadian mining company with multiple mines in China. The
Company recently commenced commercial production at its GC project in southern China. The Company’s
vision is to deliver shareholder value by focusing on the acquisition of under developed projects with
resource potential and the ability to grow organically. Facilitated by China's 1997 Mineral Resource Law,
Silvercorp first entered China in 2003 to capitalize on the country's vastly underexplored geological
potential. While the Chinese government invested tremendously in geological exploration in the 1950s and
1960s, leading to many discoveries, very little capital or advanced exploration technology was available to
exploit them fully. China's 1997 Mineral Resource Law was adopted specifically to enable foreign mining
companies to explore and mine in the country -- inviting in the advanced exploration technology, expertise
and funding China needed to truly develop its resources.
In 2004, Silvercorp acquired the Ying project, a small producing mine in the Henan province, and
exploration over the next two years led to the discovery of high-grade silver-lead-zinc mineralization in a
multitude of narrow veins similar to the prolific Coeur d'Alene silver district in Idaho, U.S.A. On March 31,
2006, Silvercorp received its first mining permit from the Ministry of Land & Resources and commercial
production of silver, lead and zinc from the Ying mine began the next day. Following on its success at the
Ying mine, Silvercorp acquired three nearby mines – HPG, TLP & LM – to consolidate the Ying Mining
District in 2007. Today, Silvercorp is China's largest publicly listed primary silver producer, with annual
production of 5.0 million ounces of silver in fiscal year 2016. The Company also produced 52.5 million
pounds of lead, 17.5 million pounds of zinc and 2,400 ounces of gold during the same period. In addition to
its operational success, Silvercorp is considered a preferred mining company in the Henan province, having
built a solid reputation for upholding high safety and environmental standards and for supporting local
community initiatives. Additionally, Silvercorp has become the largest non-state-controlled company and
one of the top tax payers in Luoyang City. This strong brand name has been instrumental in gaining and
building the support of city, county and provincial governments.
They recently began commercial production at its GC silver-lead-zinc project in Guangdong Province, its
newest production base in China. While the Company's near team focus is on cost control, cash
preservation, and protecting its strong balance sheet, longer term Silvercorp plans to continue its growth
through future consolidation, exploration, mine development and acquisition, with a focus in China.

Skeena Resources Limited is a junior Canadian mining exploration company focused on developing
prospective precious and base metal properties in the Golden Triangle region of northwest British
Columbia, Canada. The Company is led by a highly experienced team of mine-finders, including Ron
Netolitzky, Chairman of the Board. Skeena’s primary focus is the past-producing Snip mine, which
produced 1.1 million ounces of gold from 1991 until 1999 at an average gold grade of 27.5 g/t. Skeena
acquired Snip from Barrick Gold in March 2016, with the view that high-grade gold material remained
unmined as it was below the 24 g/t cut-off that existed when the mine closed. Since acquisition, Skeena has
reviewed and modelled over 280,000 metres of historical drill data and completed an initial surface drill
program of 7,200 metres with encouraging results. Plans for 2017 include 15,000 metres of drilling from
underground and surface in preparation for an initial resource estimate to be released in late 2017. The
Company also recently announced Preliminary Economic Assessment results for the Spectrum-GJ copper-
gold porphyry project. Spectrum-GJ has a 25-year mine life with a low initial capex of CAD $216 million, a
pre-tax 8% NPV of CAD $546 million and a 27% IRR. Skeena is actively seeking a partner to develop the
asset to the pre-feasibility stage.

underlying projects in exchange for a combination of cash payments, exploration expenditures, royalties
and shares. Transition Metals is aligned with several key partners including Impala Platinum, GoWest
Gold, Aldershot Resources, Kiska Metals, and Nunavut Resources Corporation in addition to having strong
financial support from Haywood Securities, Sprott Global Resource Investments, Resource Capital Funds,
Royal Nickel, and Technica Group.

km2 in Canada. The projects are focused in 5 districts that include: 1- Mid-Continental Rift (Thunder Bay
Area): in partnership with Impala Platinum and centered on a new discovery of high grade Platinum
mineralization at Sunday Lake 42.9 m @3.43 g/t PGM (2Pt:Pd) and Saturday Night 2- Nunavut: funded by
a strategic alliance with Nunavut Resources Corporation (100% Inuit owned), exploration of Gold, Base
Metals and Diamonds along proposed road corridor 3- Saskatchewan: sedimentary Copper that includes the
large and prospective Janice Lake project 4- Sudbury Basin: privately-held Sudbury Platinum Corporation
(a 36% owned subsidiary) is exploring the Ni-Cu-PGM Aer-Kidd brownfield project on the Worthington
Offset Dyke and the Lockerby East project 5- Abitibi Greenstone Belt: privately-held Canadian Gold
Miner Corp (a 50% owned subsidiary) is advancing a 165 km² early-stage and advanced Gold portfolio.

Trek Mining Inc. is a growth-focused mining company with a portfolio of production, near-production and
exploration-stage projects in North and South America. Trek Mining was formed in March 2017 through
the merger of Luna Gold Corp. and JDL Gold Corp. The combined company has a strong treasury and a
diverse portfolio of assets, anchored by near-term production from the Aurizona Gold Mine in Brazil, and
increasing gold production from the Koricancha Mill in Peru. Trek’s near-term focus is advancing the
Aurizona Gold Mine to production. Aurizona produced gold from 2010 to 2015. Since 2015 the Company
has completed extensive drilling, metallurgical testing and technical work to gain a refined understanding of
the orebody and re-engineer the project. The Company completed a pre-feasibility study in September
2016, demonstrating robust economics for an open-pit gold mine producing on average 150,000 ounces of
gold per year for the first five years. A feasibility study for the project will be completed in Q2-2017
followed by an 18-month construction period, with the objective of pouring gold at Aurizona by year-end
2018. Exploration is also underway on the approximately 2,500 km2 Aurizona property. Trek is currently
drilling near-mine targets along strike from existing reserves, representing a potential five-km extension to
the existing open pit, with the objective of extending the mine life. The broader Aurizona land package is
being explored in a joint venture with AngloGold Ashanti. AngloGold is funding all exploration costs to
earn a 70% interest in the greenfields properties, and expects to drill 18,000 metres in 2017. In addition to
the exploration potential at Aurizona, a pipeline of exploration-stage projects provide a platform
for growth. Trek’s exploration properties include the Warintza project, a porphyry copper-
molybdenum exploration project in Southeastern Ecuador; the Ricardo project, a porphyry copper-
molybdenum exploration project in Chile; and Elk Gold, a past-producing high-grade gold mine in
British Columbia, Canada.

Wheaton Precious Metals, formerly Silver Wheaton, is the largest silver and gold streaming company in
the world with the highest production and operating cash flow relative to its peers. The Company has
entered into agreements to purchase all or a portion of the silver and/or gold production from high-quality
mines for an upfront payment and an additional payment upon delivery of the precious metals. The
Company offers investors leverage to increasing silver and gold prices, a sustainable dividend, and both
organic and acquisition growth opportunities. Wheaton Precious Metals offers these benefits while at the
same time seeks to reduce many of the downside risks faced by traditional mining companies. For example,
the Company’s operating costs are contractually set at the time the stream is entered into, allowing investors
to benefit from cost predictability and strong margin growth in an environment of rising silver and gold
prices. Wheaton Precious Metals currently has streaming agreements covering 21 operating mines and 8
development stage projects. The Company’s production profile is driven by a portfolio of world-class
assets, including a gold stream on Vale’s Salobo mine, and silver streams on Glencore’s Antamina mine
and Goldcorp’s Peñasquito mine.
