Current Exploration Program

The second phase of the 2017 exploration program ha s begun on prospective new areas on both sides of t he

Murray Brook Deposit and initially consists of tren ching. Puma’s geologists have defined several new h igh

priority targets based on their stratigraphic locat ion, their proximity to the Deposit and along the b est

geophysical anomalies.

So far, 11 trenches have been completed for a total of 803 meters. Along the Western side of the Murra y

Brook Deposit, altered black shales units were discovered and contain disseminated sulphides and also small

veinlets of sulphide. The mineralized rocks, visual ly similar to the Murray Brook Deposit footwall

sediments, were found over a strong chargeability a nd gravity anomalies. This trenching program was al so

aimed at defining several high priority targets that will be tested in the coming drilling program.

tonnes averaging 5.24% zinc, 1.80% lead, 0.46% copp er, 68.9 g/t silver and 0.65 g/t gold . The core of

the mineral resource occurs in the West Zone which is 200 meters wide, extending from surface to 300

meters vertical and the true thickness of the massive sulphide body varies from 75 meters to 100 meters. The

East Zone (Copper-Gold) is 100 meters wide, also ex tending from surface to 300 vertical meters and is
