TREASURY METALS – HIGHLIGHTS
+ Flagship high-grade gold project in Ontario
– 1.7 million ounces in the combined category (760k Indicated and 940k Inferred) from November 2011 resource estimate
– High-grade 2.87 g/t Au based on PEA mineable ounces
+ Achievable $92 million CAPEX to produce 70,000 – 90,000 ounces per year for 10-year plus mine life
– Comparable deposits - Black Fox, Young-Davidson/Matachewan and Musselwhite
– Excellent recoveries +95% by CIL and +92% by Flotation
+ Environmental Impact Statement (EIS), Mine Optimization and Process Study nearing completion
+ Funded to complete Resource Estimate, Feasibility, EIA and Permitting
+ Highway accessible location with excellent infrastructure

+
GOLIATH GOLD PROJECT – NORTHWESTERN ONTARIO
+ Situated on the Trans-Canada Highway, 20 km east of the city of Dryden
+ Power, local workforce and transportation all readily available
+ Ontario/Canada developing new streamlined permitting process
+ Brigus, Rainy River, Trelawney, Prodigy and Queenston take-overs confirm Ontario as foremost region

• Rainy River/NewGold
• Hammond Reef (OSK)
• Cameron Lake (CCY)
• Red Lake (Goldcorp)
+
TREASURY METALS – SHORT TERM PROJECT MILESTONES
+ Ongoing drilling/exploration program
+ Optimization study by Lycopoduim, Tetra Tech etc. including new capital costs, operating costs and mine throughput/production numbers and recoveries
+ P&E Engineering is completing a similar study with the Open Pit and Underground mining/resources including furthering the Open Pit mine design, underground mining methods, stope design and overall mine scheduling
+ Permitting is of course ongoing with the EIS into the federal government by Q3
+ New resource and feasibility study
+ A more regionally focused exploration strategy on areas such as the Norman Property and along strike have also commenced
6
+
GOLIATH GOLD PROJECT- OPEN PIT DEPOSIT
+ Two principle zones: Main Zone and C Zone. Planer in nature and dipping at approx. 75 degrees and the ore body is consistent.
+ Average widths of 5 metres and 30 metres for Main and C Zones respectively with the C Zone situated approx. 40 metres behind the Main Zone (North) and runs parallel.

MINING PLAN – PRELIMINARY ECONOMIC STUDY
+ >2.8 g/t Au Eq. Open Pit, 3.05 g/t Au Eq Average Mill Feed
+ 4.5 Million Tonnes OP and 4.5 Million Tonnes U/G (mine plan only)
+ ~80,000 ounces/year, 2500 t/day milling for 10 year total mine life
+ $1375 Gold Price, After Tax NPV (5%) of $144.3M, IRR 32.4%, 2.8 year payback
+ $92M Initial CAPEX for OP and Mill. Portal and Ramp access development funded by cash flows of OP for total LOM capital cost of $200M
+ 95% Mining Recovery, 15% Dilution OP, 15% Dilution U/G
+ $3.01/t Open Pit Mining Cost, $60/t U/G Mining Cost, $15.81/t Milling cost
+ 9.3:1 overall stripping ratio. Opportunity to lower in east pit with additional Main, C Zone drilling. 130-180 m. Final Pit depth. 500-600 m. Underground Depth Pre-Tax values

The preliminary economic assess-
ment is preliminary in nature and
includes inferred mineral resources
that are considered too speculative
geologically to have the economic
considerations applied to them that
would enable them to be cat-
egorized as mineral reserves, and
there is no certainty that the pre-
liminary economic assessment will
be realized. Mineral resources that
are not mineral reserves do not
have demonstrated economic via-
bility.
