*Width refers to drill hole intercept. True widths have not been determined.

**Copper Equivalent (CuEq) is used for illustrative purposes, t o express the combined value of copper and

gold as a percentage of copper. No allowances have been made fo r recovery losses that would occur in a

mining scenario. CuEq is calcula ted on the basis of $2.65 per p ound of copper and $1250 per troy ounce of

gold, using the formula:

CuEq = [(%Cu)(22.0462)($lbCu)+(gptAu)(1/31.1035)($ozAu)]/[(22.0462)($lbCu)

Drillhole RN17-018 was collared as a 110m step-out to the south east from RN17-015,

which intersected 247m of 0.51% Cu and 0.34g/t Au (0.75% CuEq) (see Tower’s Press

Release dated July 1, 2017). RN17-018 was an angled hole (Azim uth 315, -60 dip);

RN17-15 was drilled as a vertical hole as shown in the plan map below.

Drill hole RN17-018 was drilled in the WM Zone, an area of copp er and gold porphyry

mineralization predominantly hosted in Nicola volcaniclastic ro cks on the western edge

of the Durand stock, a Late Triassic monzonite to diorite compo site intrusion. Significant

copper-porphyry mineralization at the WM Zone continues to be e xpanded by assay

results from the 2017 drill program, and remains open to the south, north and east.

Mineralization in RN17-018 starts at the top-of-bedrock and con sists of chalcopyrite and

pyrite occurring in veinlets and disseminations in mafic volcan ics and within

hydrothermal breccias. Alteration consists of strong, overprin ting, sodic, potassic and

inner propylitic assemblages in host Nicola Group volcaniclastic rocks.

Phase 1 of the 2017 drill program at Rabbit North is now comple te and Tower plans to

continue to aggressive explorati on on the property. Further dri lling is set to commence

once comprehensive geochemical and geological modelling on the Phase 1 2017 drill

data and further ground geophysical surveys can be executed and modelled.

Methods and Qualified Person

Drill core samples - generally 2 metres in length - were split at Tower's core logging

facility in Kamloops, BC. Samples were prepared for analysis and analyzed at Activation

Laboratories (ActLabs) in Kamloops, BC, an ISO/IEC 17025 Accred ited (Lab 790) by

the Standards Council of Canada. S amples were analyzed for gold by fire assay and ICP-
