The Shotgun Project – Opportunity<br />

Camp Scale Opportunity<br />

• Shotgun Ridge is just one of multiple gold<br />

target areas<br />

prospect: Shot, King, and Winchester<br />

• This group of prospects forms a distinct<br />

gold district held 90% by TNR<br />

• Surface geochemistry identifies multiple<br />

gold anomalies with no known source<br />

• Poor outcrop limited prospecting efforts in<br />

the past<br />

• IP surveys can identify mineralized areas<br />

TNR Gold’s Upside<br />

Los Azules<br />

1. No need for financing, sale of asset will fund Shotgun and<br />

new projects<br />

2. Potential value to be realized?<br />

Shotgun Gold<br />

1. Porphyry system = BIG potential resource<br />

2. Mineral system well understood<br />

3. Only one target tested = +700,000oz Au resource<br />

4. Room to grow!<br />

5. Plans to spin out to capture shareholder value<br />

International Lithium<br />

1. Developing assets with funding from strategic partner<br />

New projects generation (ahead of the curve)<br />

1. Critical and Strategic Minerals<br />

Thank You<br />

The Shotgun Project<br />

The Pebble Controversy<br />

• The Shotgun Project straddles the Bristol Bay<br />

and Kuskokwim Recording District boundary<br />

• The Donlin Creek project is in the Kuskokwim<br />

Recording District<br />

(“Donlin Gold enjoys broad support from both the Government of Alaska<br />

and the Alaska Native Corporations who are important participants in the<br />

project.” Novagold website September, 2013.)<br />

Area of current<br />

resource<br />

• Kuskokwim District is less than 1 kilometre<br />

“downhill” from the Shotgun Ridge Deposit<br />

• Despite the difficulties at Pebble, Alaska is<br />

still considered one of the best mining<br />

jurisdictions in the world<br />

TSX.V : TNR 23


Shotgun Zone Resource Estimate: effective date May 27, 2013<br />

The Shotgun Zone mineral resource estimate is based on 34 diamond drill holes (NQ) totaling 4,932.3 metres, with 2,481 assays (0.2 up to 10 metres in length). Holes<br />

were drilled by several operators in five drill campaigns conducted between 1984 and 2012. The 34 drill holes are spaced primarily 40 to 100 metres apart in an area<br />

of approximately 375 x 300 metres. The drill holes tested mineralization to a vertical depth up to 150 metres.<br />

The Shotgun gold mineralization is associated with intrusions of various compositions (incl. granite porphyry) which intruded the Cretaceous sedimentary rocks of the<br />

Kuskokwim Group. Mineralization was emplaced within a compressional environment evidenced by northeast oriented right lateral strike slip faulting and open<br />

folding with northwest oriented axes. In the Shotgun Zone, northwest oriented dilational jogs or relay zones host mineralized quartz breccias. A resource model for<br />

the Shotgun Zone was constructed based on the distribution of the gold mineralization (> 0.3 to 0.5 g/t Au) and this model was used to constrain the composite<br />

values chosen for interpolation, and the ore blocks reported in the mineral resource. A block model (x – 548000, y – 6697000, z – 800, no rotation) with block<br />

dimensions of 5 x 5 x 5 metres in the x, y and z directions was placed over resource model solids with only that proportion of each block below the<br />

topographic/overburden surface and inside the solid recorded.<br />

Grades for gold were interpolated into the blocks by the inverse distance squared (ID2) method using a minimum of 2 and maximum of 12 composites to generate<br />

block grades in the Inferred resource category. The search ellipse used to interpolate grade into the blocks measured 110 x 60 x 110 (Principle Az – 235°, Principle Dip<br />

- 25°, Intemediate Az.- 325°). The size and orientation of the search ellipse approximates the strike, dip and thickness of the resource model and takes into account<br />

the limited drilling and relatively wide spacing of the drilling.<br />

Two metre composite samples were used in the resource estimation. An average specific gravity (SG) of 2.60 was used for the resource estimate. The average SG<br />

value is based on limited SG testing (18 samples) of representative mineralized core from 11 drill holes which intersect the resource model. Gemcom GEMS 6.4.1<br />

software was used to complete the resource estimate.<br />

GeoVector has estimated a range of Inferred resources at various Au g/t cut-off grades (COG) for the Shotgun Zone. The current inferred resource is stated using a<br />

grade cut-off of 0.50 g/t Au. A cut-off grade of 0.50 is considered a reasonable economic cut-off grade for the Shotgun zone to maximize the grade of the resource<br />

while maintaining a coherent model of the resource. A COG of 0.50 is a reasonable cut-off for this type of Au deposit in this region (Donlin, Livengood).<br />

The inferred mineral resource estimate has been prepared in compliance with the standards of NI 43-101 Allan Armitage, PhD., P.Geol., of GeoVector Management<br />

Inc., and is responsible for the technical comments related to the resource estimate and its parameters. Armitage is an “independent qualified person” for the<br />

purposes of National Instrument 43-101 Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects of the Canadian Securities Administrators and has verified the data disclosed in<br />

this release.<br />
