WHY INVEST IN MACDONALD MINES? The Company’s near-term exploration program is focused on the Oxide Sands The Wawa-Holdsworth Project has the potential to host a large gold system: • Many gold showings with diversified The Project is ideally positioned for exploitation - roads, rail, regional airport, high voltage power lines, and water are in close proximity Mac. Donald Mines has the technical expertise, experience and tools to successfully develop the property mineralization styles occur in a 500 metre-wide deformation corridor • The geological setting and size of the deformation zone is comparable to Alamos’ Island Gold deposit and Argonaut’s Magino deposit (together > 5 million ounces gold) • There is longer term potential associated with the lode gold mineralization on the property 16
