Certain statements in this presentation relating to the Company s expected production levels, production growth, exploration activities,
Company's levels growth activities
potential for increasing resources, project expenditures and business plans are "forward-looking statements" or "forward-looking
information" within the meaning of certain securities laws, including under the provisions of Canadian provincial securities laws and
under the United States Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and are referred to herein as "forward-looking statements." The
Company does not intend, and does not assume any obligation, to update these forward-looking statements. These forward-looking
statements represent management's best judgment based on current facts and assumptions that management considers reasonable,
including that operating and capital plans will not be disrupted by issues such as mechanical failure unavailability of parts labour
failure, parts,
disturbances, interruption in transportation or utilities, or adverse weather conditions, that there are no material unanticipated variations
in budgeted costs, that contractors will complete projects according to schedule, and that actual mineralization on properties will be
consistent with models and will not be less than identified mineral reserves. The Company makes no representation that reasonable
business people in possession of the same information would reach the same conclusions. Forward-looking statements involve known
and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors which may cause the actual results, performance or achievements of the Company to

QUALITY CONTROL
Lake Shore Gold has a quality control program to ensure best practices in the sampling and analysis of drill core. A total of three Quality Control
samples consisting of 1 bl k 1 certified standard and 1 reject d li t are i
l i ti f blank, tifi d t d d d j t duplicate inserted i t groups of 20 d ill core samples. Th bl k and th
t d into f drill l The blanks d the
certified standards are checked to be within acceptable limits prior to being accepted into the GEMS SQL database. Routine assays have been
completed using a standard fire assay with a 30-gram aliquot. For samples that return a value greater than three grams per tonne gold on
exploration projects and greater than 10 gpt at the Timmins mine and Thunder Creek underground project, the remaining pulp is taken and fire
assayed with a gravimetric finish. Select zones with visible gold are typically tested by pulp metallic analysis on some projects. NQ size drill core
is saw cut and half the drill core is sampled in standard intervals. The remaining half of the core is stored in a secure location. The drill core is
transported in security-sealed bags for preparation at ALS Chemex Prep Lab located in Timmins Ontario and the pulps shipped to ALS Chemex
security sealed Timmins, Ontario,
Assay Laboratory in Vancouver, B.C. ALS Chemex is an ISO 9001-2000 registered laboratory preparing for ISO 17025 certification.
QUALIFIED PERSON
The Company’s Qualified Persons (“QPs”) (as defined in National Instrument 43-101, “Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects”) for diamond

optioned property are Jacques Samson, P.Geo., Stephen Conquer, P.Geo, and Keith Green, respectively. Dean Crick, P.Geo. is the QP for the
Timmins deposit and Thunder Creek underground drilling projects and Bob Kusins P Geo is the QP for resource estimation at all of the
projects, Kusins, P.Geo.,
Company’s properties. As QPs, Messrs. Samson, Conquer, Green, Crick and Kusins have prepared or supervised the preparation of the
scientific or technical information for their respective properties as provided in this presentation. Messrs., Samson, Conquer, Kusins, Crick and
Green are employees of the Company.
