This presentation contains "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of applicable securities laws, including statements relating to life of

mine production plans, exploration plans and the growth and strategy of Mandalay. Actual results and developments may differ materially from

those contemplated by these statements depending on, among other things: exploration results or production results not meeting management’s

expectations; capital, production and operating cost results not meeting current plans; and changes in commodity prices and general market and

economic conditions. The factors identified above are not intended to represent a complete list of the factors that could affect Mandalay. A

description of additional risks that could result in actual results and developments differing from those contemplated by forward looking

looking statements, there may be other factors that cause actions, events or results not to be as anticipated, estimated or intended. There can be

no assurance that forward-looking statements will prove to be accurate, as actual results and future events could differ materially from those

anticipated in such statements. Accordingly, readers should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements.

Björkdal 2015 Operational Improvements:

Introduced best practice mapping, drilling,

sampling, and modelling of high nugget-

effect gold deposits

Produced a more refined resource model to

support more selective underground & open

pit mining techniques

Establishing a local assay lab for faster

grade control turnaround

2016 Planned Improvements:

Increasing grade of mill feed through more

selective underground and open pit mining

Pilot ore sorting

Pilot ultra-fine float

Page 12: Mandalay Resources February 2016 Investor Presentation

Underground Grade Improvement #1 – Currently Being Implemented

12

In first 3 weeks of on-vein selectivity, entire sample set totals

12,890 t @ 2.37 g/t Au and historic practice would send the

entire tonnage to plant. With new selectivity,

9,154 t above >0.7 @ 3.18 g/t Au, will be sent to the mill

2,239 t @ 0.49 g/t Au, will be stockpiled

1,497 t @ 0.23 g/t, will be sent to waste

Next step is to implement same selective mining for stoping ore

Page 13: Mandalay Resources February 2016 Investor Presentation

?

Improvement #2 – Move to 3.5m Drifts on 15m Levels (Currently 5m Drifts on 20m Levels)

5 X 5

3.5 X 3.5

15 m levels

20 m levels

Now that Au hosted in vein walls disproved, smaller

drifts on the right mineralized veins clearly will reduce

dilution

Closer levels (15 m vs old 20 m) will reduce exits of

subvertical veins out of stopes

Will take time to clear 18 mo of inventory at old

geometry

Can optically sort out 40+%

Costerfield Operational Improvements:

Improved mill throughput from 170 tpd

(end-2009) to 420 tpd (mid-2015)

Changed mining method from cut-and-fill to

blast-hole stoping with cemented rock fill

(greater production, lower unit costs)

Switched mining development team with

contractors

Increased sub-level spacing from 5 – 10 m

Replaced mechanized mining fleet

Introduced mobile crusher to decrease particle

size of mill feed (better recoveries, higher

throughput)

Grew mine life from zero reserves to roughly 4

years while mining continuously for 6 years

Continue target testing
