FORWARD-LOOKING
STATEMENTS
This presentation contains “forward-looking information” or "forward-looking statements" that involve a number of risks and
uncertainties. Forward-looking information and forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements with respect to
the future prices of gold and other metals, the estimation of mineral reserves and resources, the realization of mineral estimates, the
timing and amount of estimated future production and output, costs of production, capital expenditures, costs and timing of the
development of new deposits, success of exploration activities, permitting time lines, currency fluctuations, requirements for additional
capital, government regulation of mining operations, environmental risks, unanticipated reclamation expenses, title disputes or claims,
limitations on insurance coverage and timing and possible outcome of pending litigation. Often, but not always, forward-looking
statements can be identified by the use of words such as “plans”, “expects”, or “does not expect”, “is expected”, “budget”, “scheduled”,
“estimates”, “forecasts”, “intends”, “anticipates”, or “does not anticipate”, or “believes”, or variations of such words and phrases or state
that certain actions, events or results “may”, “could”, “would”, “might” or “will” be taken, occur or be achieved. Forward-looking
statements are based on the opinions and estimates of management as of the date such statements are made, and they involve
known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors which may cause the actual results, performance or achievements of the
Company to be materially different from any other future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by the forward-
looking statements. Such factors include, among others: the actual results of current exploration activities; actual results of current
reclamation activities; conclusions of economic evaluations; changes in project parameters as plans continue to be refined; future
prices of gold; possible variations in ore grade or recovery rates; failure of plant, equipment or processes to operate as anticipated;
accidents, labour disputes and other risks of the mining industry; delays in obtaining governmental approvals or financing or in the
completion of development or construction activities, fluctuations in metal prices, as well as those risk factors discussed or referred to
in this news release under and in the Company’s annual information form under the heading "Risk Factors" and other documents filed
from time to time with the securities regulatory authorities in all provinces and territories of Canada and available at www.sedar.com.
Although the Company has attempted to identify important factors that could cause actual actions, events or results to differ materially
from those described in forward-looking statements, there may be other factors that cause actions, events or results not to be
anticipated, estimated or intended. There can be no assurance that forward-looking statements will prove to be accurate, as actual
results and future events could differ materially from those anticipated in such statements. Accordingly, readers are cautioned not to
place undue reliance on forward-looking statements.

Timeline: concentrator upgrade - POX facility production 2013 - 2017
• Project will economically
recover most of the
contained gold, silver &
copper associated with
rejected pyrite minerals
• POX process can be
used to produce a low
mass residue resulting in
a metal rich product for
sale
• Up to 200,000 tpy of
pyrite concentrate,
containing 28,000 to
30,000 oz of payable
gold, will be sold to
Xiangguang Copper Co.
from 2014 to 2016

1. The rounding of tonnage and grade figures has resulted in some columns showing relatively minor discrepancies in sum totals.
2. All Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves Estimates have been determined and reported in accordance with NI 43-101 and the classification adopted by the CIM.
3. Chelopech Mineral Reserves are based on a gold equivalent cut-off of 4 g/t (Au g/t + 2.06xCu%) and a cut-off of USD 10 profit/tonne using NSR analysis, as of December 31, 2012. This information has been
prepared by Gordon Fellows who is a QP as defined in NI 43-101 and not independent of the Company.
4. Chelopech Mineral Resources are based on a gold equivalent cut-off 3 g/t (Au g/t + 2.06xCu%) and a greater than USD 0 profit/tonne test using NSR analysis, as of December 31, 2012. This information has
been prepared by Petya Kuzmanova and reviewed and approved by Julian Barnes. Julian Barnes is a QP as defined in NI 43-101 and not independent of the Company.
5. Mineral Reserves and Mineral Resources for Chelopech are based on long term metals prices of USD 1,250/oz Au, USD 2.75/lb Cu, USD 25/oz Ag.
6. Measured and Indicated Mineral Resources are inclusive of Proven and Probable Mineral Reserves.

1) Significant intercepts are located within the Chelopech Mine Concession and proximal to the mine workings.
2) Gold Equivalent calculation is based on the following formula: (Au g/t + 2.05xCu%).
3) Minimum downhole width reported is 1.5 metres with a maximum internal dilution of 4.5 metres.
4) True widths are approximately 90% of the intersection width.
5) Drill holes with prefix G indicate grade control drilling which is performed using BQ diamond drill core. All other holes are drilled with NQ
diamond core.
6) Coordinates are in mine-grid.
7) No factors of material effect have hindered the accuracy and reliability of the data presented above.
8) No upper cuts applied.
9) For detailed information on drilling, sampling and analytical methodologies refer to the NI 43-101 “Preliminary Economic Assessment Report
for the Chelopech Pyrite Recovery Project” (the “PEA Technical Report”) filed on SEDAR at www.sedar.com on September 10, 2012.
