2. Cautionary Statement
Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Information
This document contains certain forward-looking statements relating but not limited to the Company’s expectations, intentions, plans and
beliefs. Forward-looking information can often be identified by forward-looking words such as “anticipate”, “believe”, “expect”, “goal”,
“plan”, “intent”, “estimate”, “may” and “will” or similar words suggesting future outcomes or other expectations, beliefs, plans,
objectives, assumptions, intentions or statements about future events or performance. Forward-looking information may include reser ve
and resource estimates, estimates of future production, unit costs, costs of capital projects and timing of commencement of operations,
and is based on current expectations that involve a number of business risks and uncertainties. Factors that could cause actual results to
differ materially from any forward-looking statement include, but are not limited to, failure to establish estimated resources and reser ves,
the grade and recover y of mined ore varying from estimates, capital and operating costs var ying significantly from estimates, delays in
obtaining or failures to obtain required governmental, environmental or other project approvals, inflation, changes in exchange rates,
fluctuations in commodity prices, delays in the development of projects and other factors. Forward-looking statements are subject to
risks, uncertainties and other factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from expected results.
Potential shareholders and prospective investors should be aware that these statements are subject to know n and unknown risks,
uncertainties and other factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those suggested by the forward-looking
statements. Shareholders are cautioned not to place undue reliance on forward-looking information. By its nature, forward-looking
information involves numerous assumptions, inherent risks and uncertainties, both general and specific, that contribute to the possibility
that the predictions, forecasts, projections and various future events will not occur. Claude Resources undertakes no obligation to update
publicly or otherwise revise any forward-looking information whether as a result of new information, future events or other such factors
which affect this information, except as required by law.
Cautionary Note to U.S. Investors Concerning Resource Estimate
The resource estimates in this document were prepared in accordance with National Instr ument 43-101, adopted by the Canadian
Securities Administrators. The requirements of National Instr ument 43-101 differ significantly from the requirements of the United States
Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). In this document, we use the terms “measured”, “indicated” and “inferred” resources.
Although these terms are recognized and required in Canada, the SEC does not recognize them. The SEC permits U.S. mining
companies, in their filings with the SEC, to disclose only those mineral deposits that constitute “reserves”. Under United States
standards, mineralization may not be classified as a reserve unless the determination has been made that the mineralization could be
economically and legally extracted at the time the determination is made. United States investors should not assume that all or any
portion of a measured or indicated resource will ever be conver ted into “reserves”. Fur ther, “inferred resources” have a great amount of
uncertainty as to their existence and w hether they can be mined economically or legally, and United States investors should not assume
that “inferred resources” exist or can be legally or economically mined, or that they will ever be upgraded to a higher category.
