A. Disclaimer: The economic analysis contained in the 2014 PEA is considered preliminary in nature.  There is no certainty that the economic forecast outlined in the 2014 PEA will be realized. No inferred mineral resources were used in the PEA. See Exeter�?Ts website or Sedar for the news release dated December 19, 2014: Amended NI 43-101 Technical Report on the Caspiche Project; Effective date: April 30, 2014.

The 2014 PEA used prices of: Au US$1,300 US$/oz., Ag US$20/oz. and Cu US$3/lb.
* Gold equivalent oz (AuEq) value is based on Au, Ag and Cu revenues (prices and recoveries involved). AuEq oz [troy oz] = [Au g/t * Rec Au * tonnes]/31.1 + [Ag g/t * Rec Ag * tonnes]/31.1* silver price troy oz/ gold price troy oz + [[Cu% * Rec Cu * tonnes]*2204] * copper price lbs/gold price troy oz. Recoveries are adjusted based on metallurgical characteristic of the resource.

PAu and PCu are the Au and Cu prices (US$1,150/oz and US$2.50/lb, respectively), and RAu and RCu are the Au and Cu projected metallurgical recoveries, 65% and 85%, respectively for sulphide material and 78% for Au oxide material.

3 
PAu, PAg and PCu are the gold, silver and copper prices (1,250 US$/oz, 15US$/oz. and 2.75 US$/lb, respectively). RAu and RCu are the Au and Cu projected metallurgical recoveries based on a number of S % thresholds.

Cautionary Note to United States Investors - The information contained herein and incorporated by reference herein has been prepared in accordance with the requirements of Canadian securities laws, which differ from the requirements of United States securities laws. In particular, the term �?oresource�?� does not equate to the term �?oreserve�?�. The Securities Exchange Commission�?Ts (the �?oSEC�?�) disclosure standards normally do not permit the inclusion of information concerning �?omeasured mineral resources�?�, �?oindicated mineral resources�?� or �?oinferred mineral resources�?� or other descriptions of the amount of mineralization in mineral deposits that do not constitute �?oreserves�?� by U.S. standards, unless such information is required to be disclosed by the law of the Company�?Ts jurisdiction of incorporation or of a jurisdiction in which its securities are traded. U.S. investors should also understand that �?oinferred mineral resources�?� have a great amount of uncertainty as to their existence and great uncertainty as to their economic and legal feasibility. Disclosure of �?ocontained ounces�?� is permitted disclosure under Canadian regulations; however, the SEC normally only permits issuers to report mineralization that does not constitute �?oreserves�?� by SEC standards as in place tonnage and grade without reference to unit measures.
