Forward‐looking statements are subject to a variety of known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other

factors that could cause actual events or results to differ from those reflected in the forward ‐looking

statements, including, without limitation, risks relating to: fluctuating commodity prices; calculation of

resources, reserves and mineralization and precious and base metal recovery; interpretations and

This list is not exhaustive of the factors that may affect any of the Company’s forward‐looking statements.

Forward‐ looking statements are statements about the future and are inherently uncertain, and actual

CAUTIONARY NOTE TO US INVESTORS

The technical and scientific information contained in the Technical Report has been prepared in accordance

with NI 43 ‐101 and the Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy and Petroleum classification system,

which differs significantly from the standards adopted by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the

“SEC”). Accordingly, the technical and scientific information contained in the Technical Report, including any

estimates of mineral reserves and mineral resources, may not be comparable to similar information

disclosed by U.S. companies subject to the disclosure requirements of the SEC. In particular, and without

3

limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Technical Report uses the terms “measured resources,”

“indicated resources” and “inferred resources” as defined in accordance with NI 43 -101 and the CIM

Standards. Mineralization described using these terms has a greater amount of uncertainty as to its

existence and feasibility than mineralization that has been characterized as reserves. Accordingly, U.S.

investors are cautioned not to assume that any measured mineral resources, indicated mineral resources,

or inferred mineral resources that the Company reports are or will be economically or legally mineable.

Further, “inferred mineral resources” have a greater amount of uncertainty as to their existence and as to

whether they can be mined legally or economically. Under Canadian securities laws, estimates of “inferred

mineral resources” may not form the basis of feasibility or pre-feasibility studies, except in rare cases. While

the above terms under the U.S. Rules are “substantially similar” to the standards under NI 43 -101 and CIM

Standards, there are differences in the definitions under the U.S. Rules and CIM Standards. Accordingly,

there is no assurance any mineral reserves or mineral resources that the Company may report as “proven

mineral reserves”, “probable mineral reserves”, “measured mineral resources”, “indicated mineral

resources” and “inferred mineral resources” under NI 43-101 would be the same had the Company prepared

the reserve or resource estimates under the standards adopted under the U.S. Rules.
