Stoneshield Capital Corp
Goldtooth Project Briggs Mining District, Inyo County, California
Gold Deposits, Briggs District
Favorable Goldtooth Acquisi8on Terms
To earn 100% of property:
• $900,000 in cash payments over an eight year period, minimal during first half of agreement
• $2,100,000 work commitment over the first five years of agreement
• 2.5% NSR retained by underlying owners, which can be purchased at $500,000 per each 0.5%
• No shares of StoneShield to underlying owners
Briggs Mining District
• Stoneshield’s Goldtooth Project lies in the same mineralized belt as the Briggs Mine
• Briggs Mine produced 550,000 ounces of gold from 1996 to 2004 from open pit and underground opera8ons
• Briggs Mine measures, indicated and inferred resources currently 1.13 million oz gold
• Atna Resources resumed gold produc8on in 2009 and completed leach pad expansion in 2011 at the Briggs Mine
• World class poten8al for high-‐grade, underground mineable gold deposits exists beneath open pits at the Briggs Mine and at numerous loca8ons in the Briggs mining district
• Outside of the Briggs Mine property, high-‐grade resources of 370,000 oz gold present at the currently ac8ve Radcliffe Mine and historic Keystone Mine

Stoneshield’s Goldtooth Project Inyo County, California
• Excellent poten8al for discovery of significant open pit and underground mineable gold deposits
• Stoneshield’s Goldtooth Project -‐ two claim blocks, 2003 hectares containing 162 lode mining claims and 10 placer claims
• The South Goldtooth claim block extends from the Briggs mine southwards along the mineralizing Goldtooth Fault for distance of 8.5 km
• Five claims of the South Goldtooth claim block are located within the Briggs Mine permit boundary and within 150 meters of the proposed Goldtooth pit expansion
• The North Goldtooth claim block is located 2 km north of Atna’s Cecil R deposit, along the Goldtooth Fault and associated Ter8ary volcanic center
• Intensity of structural prepara8on/altera8on and widespread distribu8on of gold mineraliza8on outcropping within the Goldtooth claims is impressive
South Goldtooth
• Geology iden8cal to Briggs Mine
• Grossly underexplored, never drilled
• The Goldtooth Fault, west dipping low-‐angle faults and east-‐west faults provided the plumbing system for gold mineralizing fluids
• Main explora8on targets are to the west of the range front, concealed by alluvial gravels, and consist of the Briggs Mine Fm in the hangingwall of the range front Goldtooth Fault and the Goldtooth Fault itself
• The Briggs Mine Fm is the most favorable host rock in the district and is exposed at the range base along the en8re length of South Goldtooth claim block, indica8ng its presence beneath alluvium to the west
• High-‐grade gold mineraliza8on directly to the east of the range front indicates poten8al for large mineralized system concealed to the west

South Goldtooth Claim Block
South Goldtooth
• Rock samples from the Briggs Mine Fm near Goler Canyon assayed up to 18 g/t Au, 30 g/t Au, 37g/t Au and 61 g/t Au
• A 730 m long, east-‐west seismic survey to the west of the range front at Goler Canyon indicates alluvial gravels to be only 20 m to 45 m thick
• Eight drill holes are permiled directly to the west of surface gold mineraliza8on at Goler Canyon to test the Briggs Mine Fm beneath this thin alluvial cover
• Excellent poten8al for both open pit and underground mineable gold deposits exists on the South Goldtooth claim block directly south of the Briggs Mine
• A significant change in strike of the Goldtooth feeder fault provides a structural dila8on zone to channel mineralizing fluids

Permiled Drill Program, Goler Canyon Area, South Goldtooth Project
Permiled Drill Holes
North Goldtooth • Geology similar & iden8cal to Briggs Mine
• Grossly underexplored by surface methods
• Limited historic drilling includes 11 gold mineralized RC holes containing 20 m of 2.33 g/t Au; 15 m of 1.6 g/t Au; and 24 m of 1.16 g/t Au
• Underground mineable grades are present in surface rock samples (up to 27 g/t Au) and in drill intercepts (up to 1.5 m of 18.41 g/t Au)
• Goldtooth Fault present as mineralizing feeder structure along the en8re length of North Goldtooth claim block
• Altered and gold mineralized Ter8ary volcanic intrusives localized along Goldtooth Fault
• Thin alluvium covering the western half of the claim block concealing open ended mineraliza8on
• Numerous exis8ng 4WD roads and travel routes provide access to future drill sites

Environmental and PermiLng
• Goldtooth project has BLM approved plan of opera8ons to drill 18 holes in the south claim block
• Inyo County is pro mining
• BLM has been pragma8c and non obstruc8onist
• Desert tortoises are not an issue in the Panamint Valley
• Briggs Mine recently permiled expanded heap leach pad and open pits
• 15 years of opera8on at the Briggs Mine has resulted in extensive public environmental baseline data for the district, easing the way for future permiLng
• Current underground opera8ons at the Radcliffe Mine, located 4 km to the east of the north claim block, demonstrated that mul8ple mining ac8vi8es are possible in the district
