This presentation has been prepared as at December 14th, 2012 and contains “forward-looking statements” relating but not

limited to the Company’s expectations, plans, intentions and beliefs, under the provisions of Canadian provincial securities

laws. Forward-looking information can often be identified by forward-looking words such as “anticipate”, “believe”, “await”,

“expect”, “hope”, “goal”, “planned”, “intent”, “estimate”, “may”, “forecast” and “will” or similar words suggesting future

outcomes or other expectations, beliefs, plans, objectives, assumptions, intentions, comments or statements about future

events or performance. Forward-looking information may include statements regarding the estimation of mineral

resources, historical and current exploration results, potential mineralization, potential mineral resources and mineral

reserves, historical non-compliant pre-43-101 drilling results, and is based on current expectations that involve a number

of business risks and uncertainties, many of which are beyond Orefinders Resources Inc.’s ability to control or predict.

Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from any forward-looking statement include, but are not limited

to, failure to establish estimated resources and reserves, the grade and recovery of mined ore varying from estimates,

capital and operating costs varying significantly from estimates, delays in obtaining or failures to obtain required

governmental, environmental or other project approvals, inflation, changes in exchange rates, fluctuations in the price of

gold and other commodity prices, poor market conditions, delays in the development of projects and other factors.

Forward-looking statements are subject to risks, uncertainties and other factors that could cause actual results to differ

materially from expected results that could impede planned business objectives for the Company.

Potential shareholders and prospective investors should be aware that these statements are subject to known and

unknown risks, uncertainties and other unpredictable factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those

suggested by the forward-looking statements, and undue reliance should not be placed on such statements and

information. Shareholders are cautioned not to place undue reliance on forward-looking information since forward-looking

information involves numerous assumptions, inherent risks and uncertainties, both general and specific. These same

assumptions, risks and uncertainties contribute to the possibility that the predictions, forecasts, projections and various

future events will not occur. Orefinders Resources Inc. undertakes no obligation to update publicly or otherwise revise

any forward-looking information whether as a result of new information, future events or other such factors which affect

this information, except as required by law. All currency numbers are reported in Canadian dollars unless otherwise

indicated.

Historic metallurgical work reported

95% Au recovery using direct

cyanidation

Favorable Bond Work Index reported -

13.78 (Dynatec, 1986) due to low silica

Historic Environmental Baseline Study

raised no concerns – Dynatec Mining

Gold Mines) and 1986-87 (Golden

Shield Resources Report 1987)

*Historic drill hole records from 1938-1987

had no QAQC since the original drill-core is

no longer available. Therefore all past drill

records are considered unreliable. 12

Recent petrographic study indicate rock type as Latite (volcanic

equivalent to Monzonite) which contains virtually no quartz

Gold recovery with direct cyanidation using 0.4 kg/t NaCN and 0.3

kg/t CaO extracted 95% Au

Gold recovery from a combined gravity concentration and flotation

was 94.4%

Gold recovery from selective flotation test work was 89.0%

33.8% of gold was free at 95% minus 200 mesh

Samples were sourced from 350 kg of drill core

Ability to complete drill program and submit results for a preliminary 43-101

estimate within 12 months in the mining friendly jurisdiction of Kirkland

Lake. The Mirado Project is currently under-explored below the -150m level

The Mirado 2012 IP survey “Chargeability” results demonstrate strongly

mineralized zones from surface >600m

The Derlak Red Lake project is strategically located 1800m NE along strike

of the Madsen Mine, presenting the potential for new business opportunities

Both gold properties are situated on patented claims. Orefinders can earn

100% interest in surface and mining rights in gold camps with infrastructure

Attractive deal structures provide a direct path to 100% ownership on all

properties through low annual cash payments and exploration expenditures
