Favorable Environmental & Sustainability Profile •
Not within any designated or proposed park or
environmentally sensitive area •
No other designated commercial interest other than
logging and mining •
No known environmental liabilities on site •
LC50 fish mortality test of flotation tailings conducted by
Lakefield Research in 1996 indicate fish mortality level was
0%
•
Water sampling of tailings outlet, portals and creeks
indicate no hazardous levels of elements of concern such
as Fe, Cu, Zn, Pb, As •
No Acid rock Drainage (ARD) - Acid-base accounting
results indicate potential acid consuming material which
mitigates costly handling of waste rock
•
Baseline water sampling - on going. Most recent sampling:
November 2012
Mining and Metallurgy
•
10 kms of pre-existing underground Carolin mine
structure •
•
•
•
30% of mill complex still standing •
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
800 level track accessible
850 to 1015 level is ramp accessible Not flooded 2 - 500 ton ball mills
Coarse ore storage Permitted for 1300 t/day Underground rock stability and working conditions
are excellent
Ore is modestly refractory (VG, pyrite, pyrrhotite,
arsenopyrite) Gravity gold recovery Flotation of the sample produced a rougher
concentrate containing 39.7 g/t Au, 7.21 g/t Ag
and 16.7%S at a gold recovery of 91.3%.
The pressure oxidation of the concentrate yielded
an average sulphide oxidation of 97.2%.
The gold recovery achieved in POX-CIL testing of
flotation concentrate is 96.3%. The overall recovery
of gold by flotation-pressure oxidation-cyanidation
combined with cyanidation of the flotation tailing is
94.5%
Development Plan Carolin Mine project
•
•
•
•
Increase existing gold resource through surface and
underground drilling programs, in keeping with development
plans for 2013 (subject to financing)
Improve recoveries by utilizing modern metallurgical
processes Investigate various mining scenarios
Initiate PEA on Carolin Mine resource 4th quarter 2013 McMaster Open Pit
•
Build on NI 43-101 resource estimate of 79,000 oz (inferred)
Initiate surface drilling program 3rd quarter 2013
•
Initiate PEA at McMaster after 2013 drilling program
•
Tailings Project – Early Cash Flow Potential •
Potential near term cash flow
•
Permitted Tailings Storage Facility in excellent condition
•
Existing Tailings Storage Facility (TSF) is expandable
•
NI 43-101 resource report (approximately 60% of TSF)
–  Indicated Mineral Resource in Tailings Storage Facility estimated at 23,700 ounces of gold in 445,378 tons at a cutoff grade of 1.00 g/t gold.
–  Inferred Mineral Resource estimate of 5,000 ounces of gold in
93,304 tons at a cutoff grade of 1.00 g/t gold
•
Economic PEA completed March 2012
•
Process tailings resource using portable processing system •
Target production start date 4th quarter 2013 (subject to
financing)
Upside Potential •
Coquihalla Gold Belt has potential for multimillion ounce
gold resource
-  numerous gold showings which have never been drill tested
-  eight defined target areas •
Two other small past producing mines may have open pit
potential:
–  Emancipation Mine –  Pipestem Mine
•
Primary drill area (1.2 kilometres) between Carolin Mine
and McMaster –  historic Montana showing (30 ounces gold from 2 tons at
surface)
•
Airborne Magnetometer and Radiometric geophysical
survey completed over 144 sq kilometers of the Coquihalla
Gold Belt. Results indicate 28 kilometres of ultramafic –
sediment gold contact.

Exploration •
Coquihalla Gold Belt has potential to host approximately 1 million + oz of gold prospecting and mapping of
numerous gold showings which have never been drill tested
•
Two other small past producing mines may have open pit
potential:
•  Emancipation Mine •  4 portals •  600 m underground workings •  Pipestem Mine •  2 portals •  300 m underground workings •  Area (1.2 kilometres) between Carolin Mine and McMaster
has never been drilled
Exploration Exploration Airborne Magnetometer survey
completed over the claim group.
Results show 28 kilometres of
ultramafic (purple) – sediment
(blue) gold contact area. Geological Setting & Mineralization Coquihalla Gold Belt is comprised of northwesterly trending
sub-parallel east and west linears of the Hozameen Fault
system and transected by northeasterly trending faults
•  Tectonics have resulted in numerous shear and dilatant
zones amenable to gold mineralization
•  Host to 5 underground mines and over 15 known gold
showings.
•  Gold/Silver ratio varies from 13:1 to 4:1 depending upon
location
•  Gold mineralization is both lithologically and structurally
controlled
•  Several stacked mineralized zones ranging up to 30m in
width showing good uniformity of gold grade
•  Replacement model together with long intervals of
continuous gold mineralization indicating porphyry gold
system
•  Alteration and mineral paragenesis suggests zoning and
more than one period of gold mineralization
•
Ladner - Gold Hosts 1.  Stacked replacement gold zones 2.  Gold porphyry areas
3.  Several known and distinct gold hosts
4.  Folded Conglomerates
5.  Vein deposits within Volcanic rocks
6.  Unconformity between Volcanics and Sediments
7.  Disseminated in porous Sediments
8.  Gold zones occur at ultramafic – sediment
contact along major regional Hozameen Fault

gold resource ✓  Five historic mines producing gold
periodically from 1917 to 1984 ✓  691,540 oz. (NI 43-101) inferred
resource estimate at Carolin and
McMaster Zones
✓  Open pit potential at McMaster Zone
(possible super pit to Carolin Mine) ✓  Multimillion dollar historic asset
inclusive of tailings, mill,
underground workings and database
✓  Mine and exploration permits in good
standing
✓  Very favorable location and access to
mining related services & resources,
resulting in substantial drilling,
development and mining economies
✓  Active mine permit shortens path to
production
–  Many years of development and
millions of dollars invested to date
places NCGC years ahead of
greenfield projects
–  No major permitting challenges
–  Accelerates mine re-activation by
several years and saves CDN $3 to
$4 million in estimated permitting,
environmental impact study and
engineering related costs.
✓  Very low market capdue to prevailing
market conditions
✓  Experienced management and technical
team with Insider ownership at 11%
✓  Potential for near-term cash flow from
reprocessing gold in tailings ✓  PEA confirms viability on tailings resource Ladner Gold Project Due Diligence Links… Development Metallurgy
