This presentation contains forward-looking information under Canadian securities legislation. Forward-looking information includes, but is not limited to, statements with respect to the
development potential and timetable of the projects; the Company’s ability to raise additional funds as necessary or on commercially reasonable terms; the future price of gold; the
estimation of mineral resources and mineral reserves; conclusions of economic evaluation (including scoping studies); the realization of mineral resource and reserve estimates; the
timing and amount of estimated future production, development and exploration; costs of future activities; capital and operating expenditures; success of exploration activities; mining
or processing issues; currency exchange rates; government regulation of mining operations; and environmental risks. Generally, forward-looking information can be identified by the
use of forward-looking terminology such as “plans,” “expects” or “does not expect,” “is expected,” “budget,” “scheduled,” “estimates,” “forecasts,” “intends,” “anticipates” or “does not
anticipate,” or “believes,” or variations of such words and phrases or statements that certain actions, events or results “may,” “could,” “would,” “might,” or “will be taken,” “occur” or “be
achieved”. Forward-looking information is based on the opinions and estimates of management as of the date such statements are made. Estimates regarding the anticipated timing,
amount and cost of mining at the projects are based on assumptions underlying mineral resource estimates and the realization of such estimates; results of previous mining activities at
the projects, and detailed research and analysis completed by independent of the Company; research and estimates regarding the timing of delivery for long-lead items; knowledge
regarding the factors involved in building a mine and other factors described in the technical reports and Annual Information Form filed under the profile of the Company on SEDAR.
Capital and operating cost estimates are based on results of previous mining activities, research of the Company and independent consultants, recent estimates of construction and
mining costs and other factors that are set out in the scoping study. Production estimates are based on mine plans and production schedules, which have been developed by the
Company’s personnel and independent consultants. Forward-looking information is subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause the actual
results, level of activity, performance or achievements of the Company to be materially different from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking information, including but not
limited to risks related to: timing and availability of external financing on acceptable terms; unexpected events and delays during construction, expansion and start-up; variations in ore
grade and recovery rates; receipt and revocation of government approvals; actual results of exploration and mining activities; changes in project parameters as plans continue to be
refined; future prices of gold; failure of plant, equipment or processes to operate as anticipated; accidents, labour disputes and other risks of the mining industry. Although management
of the Company has attempted to identify important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in forward-looking information, there may be other
factors that cause results not to be as anticipated, estimated or intended. There can be no assurance that such statements will prove to be accurate, as actual results and future events
could differ materially from those anticipated in such statements. Accordingly, readers should not place undue reliance on forward-looking information. The Company does not
undertake to update any forward-looking information except in accordance with applicable securities laws.
Investors are advised that National Instrument NI 43-101 of the Canadian Securities Administrators requires that each category of mineral reserves and mineral resources be reported
separately. Mineral resources that are not mineral reserves do not have demonstrated economic viability. Due to the uncertainty of measured, indicated or inferred mineral resources,
these mineral resources may never be upgraded to proven and probable mineral reserves.
Mark Edwards MAIG MAusIMM (CP)., is a “qualified person” as such term is defined in National Instrument 43-101 and has reviewed and approved the technical information and data
included in this presentation.
Cautionary Note to U.S. Investors Concerning Estimates of Measured, Indicated or Inferred Resources
The information presented uses the terms “measured”, “indicated” and “inferred” mineral resources. United States investors are advised that while such terms are recognized and
required by Canadian regulations, the United States Securities and Exchange Commission does not recognize these terms. “Inferred mineral resources” have a great amount of
uncertainty as to their existence, and as to their economic and legal feasibility. It cannot be assumed that all or any part of an inferred mineral resource will ever be upgraded to a
higher category. Under Canadian rules, estimates of inferred mineral resources may not form the basis of feasibility or other economic studies. United States investors are cautioned
not to assume that all or any part of measured or indicated mineral resources will ever be converted into mineral reserves. United States investors are also cautioned not to assume
that all or any part of an inferred mineral resource exists, or is economically or legally mineable.

* Crocodile Gold acquired the Fosterville and Stawell Gold Mines with effect from May 5, 2012. Information presented prior to this date is for comparative purposes only.
Record production in 2014 of 222,312 oz, up 5.5% from 2013
Achieved second consecutive year of production above 210,000 ounces.
Free Cash Flow Agreement Completed
27
Crocodile Gold continues to generate strong free cash flow
and now retains 100% of free cash flow generated from the
Fosterville and Stawell Gold Mines
On January 14, 2015, Crocodile Gold closed its Agreement with AuRico
Gold Inc. (“AuRico”) to terminate a cash flow sharing arrangement
previously established between the two companies when Crocodile Gold
acquired the Fosterville and Stawell Gold Mines from AuRico in 2012.
As part of the Agreement, Crocodile Gold has paid AuRico C$20.0M
(US$16.7M) in cash and has granted AuRico a net smelter return royalty of
2% from the Fosterville Gold Mine, effective as of January 14, 2015, and a
1% royalty from Stawell Gold Mines commencing January 1, 2016.
Strong Q4/14 performance resulted in a solid cash balance at year-end
that enabled Crocodile Gold to fund the one-time payment without the
addition of debt.
As a result, Crocodile Gold is released from its obligation to pay AuRico
any further net free cash flow generated from the Fosterville and Stawell
Gold Mines.
Crocodile Gold will now fully benefit and retain 100% of its strong free
cash flows. This Agreement was a critical step in supporting the future
growth toward the 5 Year Strategy of Crocodile Gold.

28
Crocodile Gold continues to look for opportunities to invest in attractive projects in low-risk jurisdictions.
Significant land holdings in the Northern Territory and also in the State of Victoria
2,061km2 in Northern Territory and 2,154km2 in Victoria
JDS Silver: Silvertip Project, Northern British Columbia
In early 2014, the company identified JDS Silver as a strategic opportunity given our extensive knowledge of the project. The
Company completed its due diligence process and in Q3/14 invested $5.1M for a 19.9% minority interest
The Silvertip project is a highly attractive near-production, high grade silver and polymetallic resource in a stable mining jurisdiction
in North America. Indicated Resources are 2.7Mt @ 341g/t Ag, 6.53% Pb and 9.12% Zn*
Capital requirements are low
The mine includes a developed access decline, full camp facilities, and an access road. JDS Silver also owns a full processing plant
with power generating capabilities that is in excellent condition.
JDS Silver underscores our core mining principals as we are highly familiar with the project’s site location and geological setting.
*Please refer to cautionary language on page 30 of this presentation.
Crocodile Gold is open to entering into Joint Ventures (JVs) of non-core assets primarily in the Northern
Territory and discussions are ongoing. Potential benefits include:
• Return upside in the form of earn-in rights, royalties and other similar arrangements
• Carrying cost savings
• Sharper focus on core producing assets
Crocodile Gold looks for opportunities to divest non-core assets and has completed a number of divestments in
2014 which include:
Phoenix Copper Option and Sale Agreement
• Crocodile Gold entered into a sale agreement with Phoenix Copper (“Phoenix”) for 100% of the Company’s Iron Blow and Mt.
Bonnie massive sulphide deposits for a 2% royalty on precious metals and claw back rights
• The Company also entered into an option agreement which allows Phoenix to earn up to a 90% interest in the nearby Burnside
and Moline gold projects and the Chessman base metals project. Terms of the agreement include Phoenix's commitment to
spend AUD$4M in exploration expenditures over the next four years
Rockland Option Agreement
• Crocodile Gold entered into a uranium exploration agreement with Rockland Resources, where Rockland received 100% uranium
interest on the Company’s property for a AUD$1M exploration commitment over four years. A 1.0% net smelter royalty is capped
at AUD$2.5M
Non-Core Asset Divestment

Non-IFRS Measures
Crocodile Gold believes that investors use certain indicators to assess gold mining companies. The indicators are intended to provide additional information and should not be
considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance in accordance with the International Financial Reporting Standards.
“Operational Cash Costs per Ounce” is a non-IFRS performance measure which could provide an indication of the mining and processing efficiency at the operations.
The Company calculates operating cash costs per ounce by deducting silver sales revenue as a by-product from operating expenses per the consolidated statement of operations,
then dividing by the gold ounces sold during the applicable period. Operating expenses include mine site operating costs such as mining, processing and administration as well as
royalties, however excludes depletion and depreciation, share-based payments and rehabilitation costs. There are variations in the method of computation of “operational cash
costs per ounce” as determined by the Company compared with other mining companies. For more detail on the operational cash costs per ounce determination for Crocodile Gold,
please visit www.sedar.com or www.crocgold.com and review the latest Annual Financial Statements issued on March 19, 2014.
“All-In Sustaining Costs per Ounce of Gold (“AISC”)” Effective December 31, 2013, the Company has adopted an all-in sustaining cost (“AISC”) performance measure that
reflects all of the expenditures that are required to produce an ounce of gold from current operations. While there is no standardized meaning of the measure across the industry,
the Company’s definition conforms to the AISC definition as set out by the World Gold Council in its guidance dated June 27, 2013. The World Gold Council is a non-regulatory,
non-profit organization established in 1987 whose members include global senior mining companies. The Company believes that this measure will be useful to external users in
assessing operating performance and the ability to generate free cash flow from current operations. The Company defines AISC as the sum of operating cash costs (per above),
sustaining capital (capital required to maintain current operations at existing levels), capital lease repayments, corporate general and administrative expenses, in-mine exploration
expenses and rehabilitation accretion and amortization related to current operations. AISC excludes capital expenditures for significant improvements at existing operations deemed
to be expansionary in nature, exploration and evaluation related to growth projects, rehabilitation accretion and amortization not related to current operations, financing costs, debt
repayments, share-based compensation not related to operations, and taxes.

Fourth Quarter and Year End 2014 Financial Results

  • 2. This presentation contains forward-looking information under Canadian securities legislation. Forward-looking information includes, but is not limited to, statements with respect to the development potential and timetable of the projects; the Company’s ability to raise additional funds as necessary or on commercially reasonable terms; the future price of gold; the estimation of mineral resources and mineral reserves; conclusions of economic evaluation (including scoping studies); the realization of mineral resource and reserve estimates; the timing and amount of estimated future production, development and exploration; costs of future activities; capital and operating expenditures; success of exploration activities; mining or processing issues; currency exchange rates; government regulation of mining operations; and environmental risks. Generally, forward-looking information can be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology such as “plans,” “expects” or “does not expect,” “is expected,” “budget,” “scheduled,” “estimates,” “forecasts,” “intends,” “anticipates” or “does not anticipate,” or “believes,” or variations of such words and phrases or statements that certain actions, events or results “may,” “could,” “would,” “might,” or “will be taken,” “occur” or “be achieved”. Forward-looking information is based on the opinions and estimates of management as of the date such statements are made. Estimates regarding the anticipated timing, amount and cost of mining at the projects are based on assumptions underlying mineral resource estimates and the realization of such estimates; results of previous mining activities at the projects, and detailed research and analysis completed by independent of the Company; research and estimates regarding the timing of delivery for long-lead items; knowledge regarding the factors involved in building a mine and other factors described in the technical reports and Annual Information Form filed under the profile of the Company on SEDAR. Capital and operating cost estimates are based on results of previous mining activities, research of the Company and independent consultants, recent estimates of construction and mining costs and other factors that are set out in the scoping study. Production estimates are based on mine plans and production schedules, which have been developed by the Company’s personnel and independent consultants. Forward-looking information is subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause the actual results, level of activity, performance or achievements of the Company to be materially different from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking information, including but not limited to risks related to: timing and availability of external financing on acceptable terms; unexpected events and delays during construction, expansion and start-up; variations in ore grade and recovery rates; receipt and revocation of government approvals; actual results of exploration and mining activities; changes in project parameters as plans continue to be refined; future prices of gold; failure of plant, equipment or processes to operate as anticipated; accidents, labour disputes and other risks of the mining industry. Although management of the Company has attempted to identify important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in forward-looking information, there may be other factors that cause results not to be as anticipated, estimated or intended. There can be no assurance that such statements will prove to be accurate, as actual results and future events could differ materially from those anticipated in such statements. Accordingly, readers should not place undue reliance on forward-looking information. The Company does not undertake to update any forward-looking information except in accordance with applicable securities laws. Investors are advised that National Instrument NI 43-101 of the Canadian Securities Administrators requires that each category of mineral reserves and mineral resources be reported separately. Mineral resources that are not mineral reserves do not have demonstrated economic viability. Due to the uncertainty of measured, indicated or inferred mineral resources, these mineral resources may never be upgraded to proven and probable mineral reserves.

  • 27. Free Cash Flow Agreement Completed 27 Crocodile Gold continues to generate strong free cash flow and now retains 100% of free cash flow generated from the Fosterville and Stawell Gold Mines On January 14, 2015, Crocodile Gold closed its Agreement with AuRico Gold Inc. (“AuRico”) to terminate a cash flow sharing arrangement previously established between the two companies when Crocodile Gold acquired the Fosterville and Stawell Gold Mines from AuRico in 2012. As part of the Agreement, Crocodile Gold has paid AuRico C$20.0M (US$16.7M) in cash and has granted AuRico a net smelter return royalty of 2% from the Fosterville Gold Mine, effective as of January 14, 2015, and a 1% royalty from Stawell Gold Mines commencing January 1, 2016. Strong Q4/14 performance resulted in a solid cash balance at year-end that enabled Crocodile Gold to fund the one-time payment without the addition of debt. As a result, Crocodile Gold is released from its obligation to pay AuRico any further net free cash flow generated from the Fosterville and Stawell Gold Mines. Crocodile Gold will now fully benefit and retain 100% of its strong free cash flows. This Agreement was a critical step in supporting the future growth toward the 5 Year Strategy of Crocodile Gold. Terms of the Net Free Cash Flow Sharing Arrangement on Fosterville and Stawell Gold Mines – Terminated January 14, 2015 1. First $60M of cumulative NFCF is paid 100% to Crocodile 2. Next $30M of cumulative NFCF is paid 100% to AuRico 3. Next $30M of cumulative NFCF is shared 50/50 between Crocodile and AuRico 4.

  • 28. Strategic Projects 28 Crocodile Gold continues to look for opportunities to invest in attractive projects in low-risk jurisdictions. Significant land holdings in the Northern Territory and also in the State of Victoria 2,061km2 in Northern Territory and 2,154km2 in Victoria JDS Silver: Silvertip Project, Northern British Columbia In early 2014, the company identified JDS Silver as a strategic opportunity given our extensive knowledge of the project. The Company completed its due diligence process and in Q3/14 invested $5.1M for a 19.9% minority interest The Silvertip project is a highly attractive near-production, high grade silver and polymetallic resource in a stable mining jurisdiction in North America. Indicated Resources are 2.7Mt @ 341g/t Ag, 6.53% Pb and 9.12% Zn* Capital requirements are low The mine includes a developed access decline, full camp facilities, and an access road. JDS Silver also owns a full processing plant with power generating capabilities that is in excellent condition. JDS Silver underscores our core mining principals as we are highly familiar with the project’s site location and geological setting. *Please refer to cautionary language on page 30 of this presentation.
  • 29. Crocodile Gold is open to entering into Joint Ventures (JVs) of non-core assets primarily in the Northern Territory and discussions are ongoing. Potential benefits include: • Return upside in the form of earn-in rights, royalties and other similar arrangements • Carrying cost savings • Sharper focus on core producing assets Crocodile Gold looks for opportunities to divest non-core assets and has completed a number of divestments in 2014 which include: Phoenix Copper Option and Sale Agreement • Crocodile Gold entered into a sale agreement with Phoenix Copper (“Phoenix”) for 100% of the Company’s Iron Blow and Mt. Bonnie massive sulphide deposits for a 2% royalty on precious metals and claw back rights • The Company also entered into an option agreement which allows Phoenix to earn up to a 90% interest in the nearby Burnside and Moline gold projects and the Chessman base metals project. Terms of the agreement include Phoenix's commitment to spend AUD$4M in exploration expenditures over the next four years Rockland Option Agreement • Crocodile Gold entered into a uranium exploration agreement with Rockland Resources, where Rockland received 100% uranium interest on the Company’s property for a AUD$1M exploration commitment over four years.

  • 30. Non-IFRS Measures Crocodile Gold believes that investors use certain indicators to assess gold mining companies. The indicators are intended to provide additional information and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance in accordance with the International Financial Reporting Standards. “Operational Cash Costs per Ounce” is a non-IFRS performance measure which could provide an indication of the mining and processing efficiency at the operations. The Company calculates operating cash costs per ounce by deducting silver sales revenue as a by-product from operating expenses per the consolidated statement of operations, then dividing by the gold ounces sold during the applicable period. Operating expenses include mine site operating costs such as mining, processing and administration as well as royalties, however excludes depletion and depreciation, share-based payments and rehabilitation costs. There are variations in the method of computation of “operational cash costs per ounce” as determined by the Company compared with other mining companies. For more detail on the operational cash costs per ounce determination for Crocodile Gold, please visit www.sedar.com or www.crocgold.com and review the latest Annual Financial Statements issued on March 19, 2014. “All-In Sustaining Costs per Ounce of Gold (“AISC”)” Effective December 31, 2013, the Company has adopted an all-in sustaining cost (“AISC”) performance measure that reflects all of the expenditures that are required to produce an ounce of gold from current operations. While there is no standardized meaning of the measure across the industry, the Company’s definition conforms to the AISC definition as set out by the World Gold Council in its guidance dated June 27, 2013. The World Gold Council is a non-regulatory, non-profit organization established in 1987 whose members include global senior mining companies. The Company believes that this measure will be useful to external users in assessing operating performance and the ability to generate free cash flow from current operations. The Company defines AISC as the sum of operating cash costs (per above), sustaining capital (capital required to maintain current operations at existing levels), capital lease repayments, corporate general and administrative expenses, in-mine exploration expenses and rehabilitation accretion and amortization related to current operations. AISC excludes capital expenditures for significant improvements at existing operations deemed to be expansionary in nature, exploration and evaluation related to growth projects, rehabilitation accretion and amortization not related to current operations, financing costs, debt repayments, share-based compensation not related to operations, and taxes.
