Preparation of this document has been supervised by Alger St-Jean, P.Geo., Vice-President, Exploration of RNC Minerals and a “Quali�ed Person” as de�ned in NI 43-101. For more information on RNC’s projects, please refer to www.rncminerals.com or RNC’s technical reports on the Beta Hunt Mine (dated March 4, 2016) and Dumont Project dated July 25, 2013 available under RNC Mineral's pro�le on SEDAR at www.sedar.com.

This factsheet contains forward looking information with respect to the Beta Hunt Mine, Reed Mine, the development of the Dumont Nickel Project and potential of the West Raglan and Qiqavik projects that is based on expectations, estimates and projections as of this date. Forward looking information, by its nature, requires us to make assumptions and is subject to risks and uncertainties which may give rise to the possibility that our expectations or conclusions will not prove to be accurate and that our assumptions may not be correct. These factors, many of which are beyond our control, include inability to raise the funds necessary to complete development, general business, economic, competitive, political and social uncertainties as well as the future prices of metals and changes in mine and project parameters as future plans continue to be re�ned.
