Yellowknife - One of Six High Grade Gold Camps in Canada

More Than 300M* Oz Gold have been mined from Archean Gold deposits in Canada, with the vast majority from High Grade Gold Camps

Yellowknife is the most northerly and least explored of these camps

* Gold Ounces in Camps include known historical production, reserves and drill indicated resources from public

records. Totals should be considered approximate with an error range sufficient for comparison purposes. Other

large Archean gold areas include Detour/Sunday Lake; Rice Lake; Chibougamau; Meliadine; and Meadowbank

Geology of the YCG propertyIdeally Located for Discovery

• YCG is 1182 km and 23 km strike

length covering the extension of the

Geology Containing the Con and

Giant Mines – Past Production

Includes:

o Con Mine

1938 to 2003

6.1 million oz @ 16.1g/t Au1

o Giant Mine

1945 to 2004

8.1 million oz @ 16.0g/t Au1

• YCG properties cover the most

prospective geology of this belt

• Unique Situation for a Junior Mining

Company to Control a Major Gold

Camp in Canada

• Year Round Access from Yellowknife

• 8 km by road to Yellowknife Airport -site of TerraX core facility

• Blue Fish Hydro Dam on Property –expandable for Mine Development

• Skilled available workforce

• Local service providers

Unmatched Accessibility Excellent Infrastructure

• Population - 20,000

• Founded on 2 Gold Mines

• Transportation hub for NWT

• Highway Access to the Rest of Canada

• Daily jet service to major cities

THE ‘CORE GOLD AREAS’Concentrating our exploration efforts

• Based on Surface work and drilling up

to 2016 TerraX has defined a 10 x 4 km

‘Core Gold Area’ of mineralization

o The Core Gold Area is contained

within a major flexure of the main

Yellowknife Gold Camp Shear Zone

o To date TerraX has discovered

within the Core Gold Area:

� Mispickel

� Sam Otto

� Barney

� Hebert-Brent

� 20 Shear and

� Crestaurum

• Taken collectively we believe the shears

and veins could be indicative of gold-

bearing vein sets common to large

mineralized systems

Major Findings – reinterpreted

2014 and 2015 drilling

• Gold grade in Barney Shear

Zone increases at shear dip

flexures

• The high grade Barney Zone

occurs on a ‘ledge’ in the

steeply dipping Barney Shear

• Positions of historical drilling,

particularly NB96-09 on this

section, may need corrected

positions

• High grade ledge has now

been interpreted over +300

meters of strike

• Targeting for more ‘ledges’ in
