Certain statements contained in this presentation constitute forward-looking statements. These statements relate to future events or the Corporation's future performance, business prospects or opportunities. All statements other than statements of historical fact may be forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are often, but not always, identified by the use of words such as "seek", "anticipate", "plan", "continue", "estimate", "expect, "may", "will", "project", "predict", "potential", "targeting", "intend", "could", "might", "should", "believe" and similar expressions. These statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause actual results or events to differ materially from those anticipated in such forward-looking statements. The Corporation believes that the expectations reflected in those forward-looking statements are reasonable, but no assurance can be given that these expectations will prove to be correct and such forward-looking statements should not be unduly relied upon. These statements speak only as of the date specified. The Corporation does not intend, and does not assume any obligation, to update these forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties relating to, among other things, results of exploration activities, the Corporation's limited experience with development-stage mining operations, uninsured risks, regulatory changes, defects in title, availability of materials and equipment, timeliness of government approvals, changes in commodity and, particularly, gold prices, actual performance of facilities, equipment and processes relative to specifications and expectations and unanticipated environmental impacts on operations. Actual results may differ materially from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Qualified person John Kiernan P.Eng, Magellan’s VP Project Development and a "qualified person" within the definition of that term in NI 43-101, has reviewed the technical information contained in this presentation Preliminary Economic Assessment Certain financial information contained in this presentation is based on a Preliminary Economic Assessment contained in a report entitled “NI 43-101 Technical Report Coringa Project State of Para Brazil”, dated February 12, 2015 and available on the Sedar website at www.sedar.com. The Preliminary Economic Assessment is preliminary in nature, includes inferred mineral resources that are considered too speculative geologically to have the economic considerations applied to them that would enable them to be categorized as mineral reserves, and there is no certainty that the Preliminary Economic Assessment will be realized. This presentation also describes mineral resources on the Coringa Project. Mineral resources are not mineral reserves and do not have demonstrated economic viability

Magellan Minerals Poised for rapid growth
4
Following completion of BFS at Coringa, permitting and construction is estimated at 18-24 months. Initial production of 50Koz/yr
Short time frame to production
Expand Coringa
Coringa plant is expected to have approx. 200t of unutilized capacity which could result in increased production within 2 years
Advance satellite deposits
Magellan owns the Mato Velho project located 15km to north. Early drilling suggests presence of second high grade deposit
Complete bankable Feasibility Study* on Coringa by end April 2015
Strategy
* Bankable Feasibility Study is 75% complete as of 19 Feb. 2015

Key Land Position in Competitive Belt Para State and the Tapajos

Para has a corporate tax rate of 15.25%2 compared to 34% in other states in Brazil
Tax Incentive
Mining friendly jurisdiction
Para has major bauxite, iron ore and copper mines
Improving infrastructure
BR-163 highway in eastern Para has recently been paved. PCH Curua hydroelectric power plant provides power to Novo Progresso
The Tapajos belt is the site of the world’s largest ever gold rush and produced 20-30Moz of (mainly placer) gold from 1978 to 19951
Historical production

2. This rate incorporates a tax benefit which reduces federal income tax (IRJP) by 75% for qualifying projects in the northern region of Brazil for up to 10 years. The tax
benefit approval deadline has been extended to December 2018 by the Brazilian Federal Government. While this program has been in place since 2000, there is no
guarantee that the program approvals will continue subsequent to December 2018 nor is it certain that the tax benefit will otherwise be ultimately granted to Magellan.

• Ausenco is responsible for the overall study
compilation, mill design and site infrastructure
• Snowden is responsible for Resources, Reserves and
underground geotechnical work for the mine plan
• Deswik is completing the mine plan

• Resources - completed
• Mine plan - mine infrastructure and stope plan in progress
• Geotechnical - geotechnical analysis completed - ground
conditions in country rock and vein are good, and confirm
proposed use of resue mining to reduce dilution.
• Plant - the mill design incorporating conventional crushing,
grinding, gravity and CIL, is complete. Expected mill
recoveries of 96%.
• Environmental - completed. No significant environmental
issues are envisaged.
• Tailings - testing for process tailings dewatering and
rheology has been completed. Tailings thicken well and
readily consolidate to form a dense and stable deposit.
Suitable for supplying backfill to the mine.
• Groundwater - groundwater modeling and water balance
work in progress
• Acid rock drainage - testing in progress. No issues of
concern are anticipated
• Power supply - completed. Grid power is the preferred
option
• Camp - general site layout completed
• Financial Model - work is ongoing in all areas on capital
and operating costs.

Investment Summary
Average cash cost: $531/oz2 ,NPV5 of $84M on 750 tpd underground mine producing
average of 51,000oz per year for 8.5 years
Positive economics
Feasibility nearing completion
Feasibility study is 75% complete and should be complete during April 2015. Permitting is in progress. Construction expected in 2016
Near term expansion
Mitigation of underground dilution should result in significant spare processing capacity
in the plant allowing near term expansion
Coringa is high grade undeveloped gold deposit in northern Brazil. M&I grade =
7.2gpt1. Low capex cost of US$65M High grade asset
