Black Widow Resources Inc. is a mining exploration and development company that has assembled a portfolio of three early stage exploration projects located in Ontario, Canada. The projects have potential for gold, base metals, and diamonds. BWR plans to advance these projects through exploration programs to increase their value with the goal of attracting partners for future development. The company recently completed an IPO raising over $1.1 million to fund exploration activities at its projects. Key among these is the Gremlin project, located near VMS and MMS deposits in the Ring of Fire area, where geophysics has outlined targets warranting drill testing. BWR is led by an experienced management team with a track record of successful discoveries.

Information Concerning Mineralization and Resources
Unless otherwise indicated, all resource estimates contained in this presentation have been prepared in accordance with National Instrument 43-101 Standards of Disclosure
for Mineral Projects and the Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy and Petroleum Classification System in compliance with Canadian securities laws, which differ from the
requirements of United States securities laws. Without limiting the foregoing, this presentation uses the terms "measured resources", "indicated resources" and "inferred
resources". United States investors are advised that, while such terms are recognized and required by Canadian securities laws, the United States Securities and Exchange
Commission ("SEC") does not recognize them. 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 produced or extracted at the time the reserve determination is made. United States investors are cautioned not to
assume that all or any part of measured or indicated resources will ever be converted into reserves. Further, inferred resources have a great amount of uncertainty as to their
existence and as to whether they can be mined legally or economically. It cannot be assumed that all or any part of the inferred resources will ever be upgraded to a higher
category. Therefore, United States investors are also cautioned not to assume that all or any part of the inferred resources exist, or that they can be mined legally or
economically. Disclosure of contained ounces is permitted disclosure under Canadian regulations; however, the SEC normally only permits issuers to report resources as in
place tonnage and grade without reference to unit measures. Accordingly, information concerning descriptions of mineralization and resources contained in this
presentation may not be comparable to information made public by United States companies subject to the reporting and disclosure requirements of the SEC.

Black Widow Resources Inc. (“BWR”) has built a portfolio of strategically located exploration projects, some of which are
in close proximity to previous discoveries made by members of the BWR management team, others are within regional
exploration plays;
BWR’s CEO, Neil Novak, has an outstanding track record of discovering numerous exploration projects that have
significant economic development potential including the following:
• Spider Resources Inc. (“Spider”), after a 3 month hostile bid, was purchased in 2010 for $125 million cash by Cliffs
Natural Resources (“Cliffs”), Cliffs had targeted Spider’s chromite discovery that is now being prepared for
development by Cliffs in the Ring of Fire area of Northern Ontario, estimated infrastructure costs for chromite
project are in excess of $3.3 billion, plus smelter estimated capex of an additional $2.2 billion
• Noront’s (NOT.V) Eagle’s Nest MMS Deposit located in Ring of Fire are of Northern Ontario, that is also being
prepared for development by Noront, also located in the Ring of Fire area of Northern Ontario, estimated capital
costs for project are in range of $600 million
Neil was co-recipient of 2009 PDAC Bill Dennis Prospector of the Year (presented at 2010 PDAC) for his involvement in
many of the discoveries in the Ring of Fire area
BWR’s focused property presently is a gold/base metal prospect located near Dryden, Ontario, numerous gold
occurrences on property, new geophysically rendered conductive anomalies nearby
One of BWR’s properties is located just north of the Ring of Fire, numerous geophysical anomalies on property
BWR’s exploration project acquisition philosophy includes acquiring properties, early in the exploration cycle, that
exhibit good geological and economical potential, in other words good geology equates to high potential for
discovery, be there at the right time!

Increase individual project value by assessing and conditioning early stage project(s) for
development, or as targets for eventual takeover, very similar to what happened with Spider’s Big
Daddy Chromite project;
Short Term Business Plan (2013 -14) is utilize funds resultant from early 2013 Initial Public Offering
($1.1million raised) to maintain and advance properties, while monitoring other exploration plays, seek
out and acquire interest in other exciting exploration areas;
Long Term Business Plan (3- 5 years) is:
• to build a portfolio of exciting projects in various stages of exploration in places where management
is experienced in working, initially in the Province of Ontario… then elsewhere
• to entice strategic developers to assist in development and eventual exploitation of projects as they
mature through the exploration cycle to becoming advanced projects.
