Appendix: Cosmo Mine Western Lodes
A number of drill holes have now penetrated the Western Lodes Target.
Drill results for the Cosmo Western Lodes which are outside of the current mine plan include 7.42 g/t gold over 4.3 m (estimated true width 2.85 m) and 6.59 g/t gold over 6.4 m (estimate true width 1.65 m).
Work continues to fully define the potential of the Western Lodes
Target is located only 160 m from current development and has the potential to increase resources at Cosmo and expand the current mine plan to alternative mining areas.
Note: For further information on drill results see Newmarket Gold’s press release dated July 22, 2015 located at www.newmarketgoldinc.com

Appendix: Cosmo Mine Sliver Lode & Deeps
Development of the Sliver Lode at the Cosmo Mine with additional high grade results including: 14.79 g/t Au over 11.4 m (ETW 11.4 m) in hole CE67518 and 14.07g/t Au over 6.0 m (ETW 5.83 m) in hole CE67522.
Down plunge drilling in the footwall area of the Cosmo deposit, the Cosmo Deeps drill program has identified mineralization approximately 200 m down-plunge from the current base of Mineral Resources at Cosmo. The Cosmo Deeps drilling program was successful and include intercepts such as 5.85 g/t Au over 5.70 m (ETW 4.2 m) in hole CE84099 and 3.09 g/t Au over 6.4 m (ETW 5.0 m) in hole CE840100.
The very encouraging Cosmo Deeps and Sliver drill results have identified an opportunity to drill the down plunge potential of these targets from surface. This program is expected to commence in late 2015 and will cover 2,000 m of drilling to allow for future infrastructure planning for the mine. This drilling is planned to intersect the mineralization around 100 m down plunge from recent Sliver Lode drilling results as well as around 80 m above the intercept in drill hole CE840100. This program has the potential to add significant mineralization extension to the Cosmo deposit.
Note: For further information on drill results see Newmarket Gold’s press release dated September 21, 2015 located at www.newmarketgoldinc.com

New discovery of Aurora B East Flank mineralization is a significant event in the long history of the Stawell mine.
West Flank at Stawell has produced 2.3 million oz gold whereas the East Flank, where the Aurora B discovery has been made has no recorded production.
Drilling on the Aurora B discovery returned high-grade intercepts containing visible gold including: 7.06 g/t gold over 17.80 m (estimate true width 8.3 m).
Additional drilling on this new discovery is on-going.
Note: For further information on drill results see Newmarket Gold’s press release dated July 22, 2015 located at www.newmarketgoldinc.com

Appendix: Non-IFRS and Additional InformationNon-IFRS MeasuresNewmarket Gold believes that investors use certain indicators to assess gold mining companies. The indicators are intended to provide additional information and should not beconsidered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance in accordance with the International Financial Reporting Standards.“OperationalCash Costs perOunce” is a non-IFRS performance measure which could provide an indication of the mining and processing efficiency at the operations.The Company calculates operating cash costs per ounce by deducting silver sales revenue as a by-product from operating expenses per the consolidated statement ofoperations, then dividing by the gold ounces sold during the applicable period. Operating expenses include mine site operating costs such as mining, processing andadministration as well as royalties, however excludes depletion and depreciation, share-based payments and rehabilitation costs. There are variations in the method ofcomputation of “operational cash costs per ounce” as determined by the Company compared with other mining companies. For more detail on the operational cash costs perounce determination for Crocodile Gold, please visit www.sedar.com or www.newmarketgoldinc.com and review the latest Annual Financial Statements issued on March 19,2014.
“All-In Sustaining Costs per Ounce of Gold (“AISC”) Effective December 31, 2013, the Company has adopted an all-in sustaining cost (“AISC”) performance measure that reflectsall of the expenditures that are required to produce an ounce of gold from current operations. While there is no standardized meaning of the measure across the industry, theCompany’s definition conforms to the AISC definition as set out by the World Gold Council in its guidance dated June 27, 2013. The World Gold Council is a non-regulatory, non-profit organization established in 1987 whose members include global senior mining companies. The Company believes that this measure will be useful to external users inassessing operating performance and the ability to generate free cash flow from current operations. The Company defines AISC as the sum of operating cash costs (per above),sustaining capital (capital required to maintain current operations at existing levels), capital lease repayments, corporate general and administrative expenses, mine explorationwithin the known resources and rehabilitation accretion and amortization related to current operations. AISC excludes capital expenditures for significant improvements atexisting operations deemed to be expansionary in nature, exploration and evaluation related to growth projects, rehabilitation accretion and amortization not related to currentoperations, financing costs, debt repayments, share-based compensation not related to operations, and taxes.
