    Full Government Support

    TSX.V-MMN

    • Full support from the three levels of the government: For the last few months Board members and Officers have been meeting with the General Coordinator of Mining and the General Director, Mining Development, from the Ministry of Economy, as well as Cabinet members of the new government of the State of Durango and the new Mayor of the municipality of Nuevo Ideal, where Tejamen project is located

    • State and municipal governments are pro mining, they were elected on June 5th, 2016 and both of them are from the same party; Partido Accion Nacional (PAN) and their term is six years for the Governor and three years for the Mayor

    • By invitation of the Elected Governor of the State of Durango, Mr. Jose Rosas Aispuro, on September 15th 2016 Board members and Officers attended the ceremony of “Toma de Posesión” equivalent to Oath of Office

    • We are building the foundation with the Mexican government; next step is to develop a closer relationship with the community

    September 30, 2016

  • El Sol Overview

    • Surface sampling at El Sol (old mine dumps) of up to 358ppm Ag, 1.945ppm Au, 19.6% Zn and 22.6% Pb.

    • One hole has been drilled (Southern Silver Exploration [SSV], 13CLM-072) and returned 0.3m (102.5 – 102.8m depth) at 87ppm Ag, 1.88% Pb, 1.01% Zn and 0.11% Cu.

    • A strong chargeability anomaly runs along the eastern side of the El Sol concession, possibly indicating the presence of sulfide mineralization and northward extension of SSV’s Blind/El Sol Zone.

    • A strong aeromagnetic anomaly is located at the northwestern portion of the El Sol concession, possibly indicating the presence of a mineralizing intrusive.

    • An exploration program for 2017 is proposed, consisting of 4-6 holes (total 1500m) to cost US$300,000.

    • Possible Joint Venture opportunity

  • San Lucas Overview

    • Two parallel vein structures have been identified in the 3km long mineralized Main Shearzone.

    • 79 historical RC holes have been drilled, ranging from about 32m to 259m and averaging158 m in depth.

    • Drilling results include up to 2m at 527ppm Ag, with Zn and Pb over 1% (MMSL-46;154m-156m depth).

    • And up to 22.9m at 0.78ppm Au and 12.7ppm Ag (SL11-11 500 165 - 240 ft depth).• Exploration upside in the El Doctor vein area (Noche Buena) in outcrop channel sampling

    (up to 1.4m at 110ppm Au and 168ppm Ag).• Luismin obtained some very high grade underground sampling results, with up to 256ppm

    Au and 391ppm Ag, over 0.55m.• Potential exists for the principal veins below previous drilling depths, where the base of

    the volcanic host rocks encounter schist, phyllite and limestone. The sub-volcanic rocksremain untested on the Main Shear areas, where there is significant potential for largemanto deposits.

    • A 2005 43-101 compliant Technical Report (Richards) states that a “centre ofmineralization exists in the northern portion of the Main Shear” and that this is an“expression of manto style mineralization at depth”, in underlying carbonate rocks.

    • An exploration program for 2017 is proposed with estimated cost is US$850,000.• Consolidate San Lucas land package

    • Seventy-nine RC holes have been drilled at San Lucas

    • Generally to depths of less that 200m

    • Manto potential below 200m in untested vein areas

    • Luismin obtained some very high grade underground sampling results, with up to 256ppm Au and 391ppm Ag, over 0.55m.
