deposit was an idle, under -appreciated asset that is now returning dilution -free funding for

management of the operation, which has exceeded our expectations from the start, and now is
positioned to contribute increasing royalty revenues beyond our original projections for the next
several years.”

Background
The Montana Creek Placer Property was staked in 2005 by Klondike Gold and is comprised of 239
placer claims covering 13.4 square kilometers located near Dawson City, Yukon within the area of
quartz bedrock claims comprising the Company’s “Klondike District Property”. Between 2005 and
2014 Klondike Gold completed 550 auger drill holes to delineate White Channel Gravel gold ‘pay
streaks’ covering approximately 50% of the property. Gold grains were documented and weighed
to determine grade per volume from gravels in nearly 100% of the holes in the main target area.
The Company’s auger d rilling tested a 3600m length by 1850m width with results at the time
indicating gold-bearing gravel ‘pay streaks’ in local parlance extended over a length of more than
three kilometers.
