Discovering Resources: Capitalizing on Company Strengths

• Location: Portfolio of Assets in well-known and prolific Canadian mining districts:

• Val d’Or, Quebec 70+ million ounces of gold produced• Red Lake and Matachewan, Ontario 30+ million ounces of gold produced• Flin-Flon and Snow Lake, Manitoba 180 million tonnes of copper produced

• Focus: Alexandria has completed more than 150,000 meters of drilling on its Val d’Or properties

• Successful Exploration Group• Discovery of Quebec’s next gold mine• Increased resources 4-fold in difficult markets• Lowest Costs of discovery - All-up costs $18 per ounce of gold discovered; West Zone cost just 69

cents/ounce discovered

• Solid Management: Strong relationships with partners, strong shareholder base, committed to success

Recent Highlights: Making Discovery happen through exploration and partnerships

• Cash and Current Assets $7.0 million$5.1 million financing completed with Sprott Wealth in December 2016

• Active Exploration Program on Val d’Or Property• 12,500 meter drill program underway• Currently drilling with two rigs• Focus on Orenada Zone 4, Triangle Too• New Targeting: Geophysics, field geology and prospecting have added targets

• Recent Drill Results:• Intersection and verification of multiple, high-grade, stacked vein sets at Orenada• Recent Assays: 21.32 g/t gold over 3.95 meters at Zone 4, including 42.50 g/t over

1.50 meters• Growth Potential: Stacked, high-grade vein sets at Orenada Zone 4, have been

extended along strike

• Recent Non-Core Property Developments 2016• Probe Metals: we optioned the eastern 1/3 of our Cadillac Break Property Group to

the discoverers of the multimillion ounce Borden Gold deposit near Timmins Ontario• Prosper Gold Corp: we optioned our Matachewan, Ontario, properties to the

Recent and Current Activities• Two drill rigs currently drilling a 12,500 meter winter program at Orenada Zone 4 and Triangle Too, expanding on

previous results

• Recently completed 4,200 m drill program at Orenada Zone 2 and Zone 4: verification of stacked, high-grade veins; one drill rig following up

• Recently completed first pass drill program at Triangle Too successfully identified Triangle Zone-like geology buried under glacial overburden; one drill rig now following up

Current Activities: Growing the Orenada Zone 4 deposit along and across strike

and at depth

• Current drilling at Orenada is aimed at expanding on previous drill results, which verified the existence of multiple stacked, high grade gold-quartz veins within the previously identified bulk tonnage resource, with recent results such as 21.32 g/t over 3.95 meters, 14.72 g/t gold over 2m; 9.48 g/t gold over 1.3 m and 8.01 g/t over 0.9 m.

• This drill program will focus on Zone 4, and will include sampling of portions of historic drill holes portions of which werepreviously unsampled
