Discovering Resources: Capitalizing on Company Strengths

• Location: Portfolio of Assets in well-known and prolific Canadian mining districts:

• Val d’Or, Quebec 70+ million ounces of gold produced

• Red Lake and Matachewan, Ontario 30+ million ounces of gold produced

• Flin-Flon and Snow Lake, Manitoba 180 million tonnes of copper produced

• Focus: Alexandria has completed more than 150,000 meters of drilling on its Val d’Or properties

• Successful Exploration Group• Discovery of Quebec’s next gold mine

• Increased resources 4-fold in difficult markets

• Lowest Costs of discovery - All-up costs $18 per ounce of gold discovered; West Zone cost just 69

cents/ounce discovered

• Solid Management: Strong relationships with partners, strong shareholder base, committed to success

Triangle Too

Recent and Current Activities

• Recently completed 4,200 m drill program at Orenada Zone 2 and Zone 4 led to verification of stacked high grade veins; new

round of drilling beginning in January to expand on those results

• Recently completed first pass drill program at Triangle Too successfully identified Triangle Zone-like geology buried under glacial

overburden; follow-up winter drill program to test deeper on geological targets and test new targets

• Recently completed prospecting, geology, and geophysics -- new area of gold-copper mineralization discovered and new

geophysical anomalies have identified new drill targets

Current Activities

Current Activities: Recent Drill Holes at Orenada

Z o n e 4

Z o n e 2

• Current drilling at Orenada is aimed at expanding on previous drill results, which verified the existence of multiple stacked, high grade gold-quartz

veins within the previously identified bulk tonnage resource, with recent results such as 14.72 g/t gold over 2m; 9.48 g/t gold over 1.3 m and

8.01 g/t over 0.9 m.

• This drill program will focus on Zone 4, and will include sampling of portions of historic drill holes potions of which were previously unsampled
