The Hardrock PEA is preliminary in nature and it includes inferred mineral resources that are considered too speculative geologically to have the economic considerations applies to them that would enable them to be categories as mineral reserves, and there is no certainty that the Hardock PEA will be realized. Economic studies will need to be completed prior to accurate guidance being provided For further information on the technical data provided in this presentation, refer to the Sedar filings as listed below: Note Project/Property Company Date (1) Hardrock Mineral Resource Premier Gold Mines Limited July 8, 2014 (2) Trans-Canada PEA Premier Gold Mines Limited January 28, 2014 (3) Hardrock (Trans-Canada) Premier Gold Mines Limited December 13, 2013 (4) Trans-Canada Premier Gold Mines Limited February 1, 2013 (5) Bonanza Premier Gold Mines Limited September 17, 2009 (6) Helen (Cove) Premier Gold Mines Limited January 2, 2014 (7) Trans-Canada Premier Gold Mines Limited February 1, 2013 (8) Hardrock Premier Gold Mines Limited May 17, 2011 (9) Hardrock Premier Gold Mines Limited March 4, 2010 (10) Kailey Premier Gold Mines Limited May 17, 2011 (11) Brookbank Goldstone Resources Inc.
