Cautionary Statement
Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Information
This document contains certain forward-looking statements relating but not limited to the Companyâs expectations, intentions,
plans and beliefs. Forward-looking information can often be identified by forward-looking words such as âanticipateâ, âbelieveâ,
âexpectâ, âgoalâ, âplanâ, âintentâ, âestimateâ, âmayâ and âwillâ 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 reserve 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 reserves, the grade and recovery of mined ore varying from estimates, capital and
operating costs varying 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 known 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 Instrument 43-101, adopted by the Canadian
Securities Administrators. The requirements of National Instrument 43-101 differ significantly from the requirements of the United
States Securities and Exchange Commission (the âSECâ). In this document, we use the terms âmeasuredâ, âindicatedâ and
âinferredâ 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 âreservesâ.
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 converted into âreservesâ. Further, âinferred
resourcesâ have a great amount of uncertainty as to their existence and whether they can be mined economically or legally, and
United States investors should not assume that âinferred resourcesâ exist or can be legally or economically mined, or that they will
ever be upgraded to a higher category.

Key Drivers: Santoy Gap
Ă 2,000 ounces per vertical metre (Seabee: ~ 1,000 oz/vertical metre)
Ă Higher reserve grade with opportunity to increase
Ă Decreased production risk with the addition of multiple long-hole mining fronts
Ă Higher margin ounces displaced lower margin ounces and optimized mine plan for improved cash flow
Ă Time to production from discovery = 2.5 years

Ă Santoy Gap mineral reserve grade increased by 35% to 7.64 g/t from 5.68 g/t
Ă The 45% increase in Inferred ounces was driven by the significant expansion of the Santoy 8 ore body

⢠At November 30, 2014, Mineral Reserves and Mineral Resources were estimated by Claude personnel. The Mineral Resource
evaluation work was completed by a team of geologists and engineers under the supervision of Brian Skanderbeg, P.Geo., President
and Chief Executive Officer. Mineral Reserves were conducted under the direction of Qualified Person Gordon Reed, P.Eng., Seabee
Gold Operation General Manager. Mr. Skanderbeg and Mr. Reed have sufficient experience, which is relevant to the style of
mineralization and type of deposit under consideration and to the activities undertaken to qualify as Qualified Persons as defined by
NI 43-101.
⢠The Mineral Resources and reserves reported herein have been estimated in conformity with generally accepted CIM âEstimation of
Mineral Resource and Mineral Reserves Best Practicesâ guidelines and are reported in accordance with Canadian Securities
Administratorsâ National Instrument 43-101.
⢠Mineral Reserves and Mineral Resources for the Seabee deposit are reported at a cut-off of 4.5 grams of gold per tonne. Santoy 8
and Santoy Gap Mineral Reserves and Mineral Resources are reported at a cut-off of 3.6 grams of gold per tonne. Porky Main and
Porky West Mineral Resources are reported at a cut-off grade of 3.0 grams of gold per tonne. Assumptions include a price of CDN
$1,375 per ounce of gold using metallurgical and process recovery of 95.2 percent and overall ore mining and processing costs
derived from 2014 realized costs.
⢠All figures are rounded to reflect the relative accuracy of the estimates. Summation of individual columns may not add-up due to
rounding.
⢠Mineral Resources are not Mineral Reserves and do not have demonstrated economic viability. There is no certainty that all or any
part of the Mineral Resource will be converted into Mineral Reserves.
