Probe Metals is a well-funded Canadian gold explorer with a large land position in the Val-d'Or East area of Quebec, a top mining jurisdiction. The company has increased its gold resource at the Val-d'Or East project over 4 times since 2016 to now total over 3.2 million ounces. Multiple deposits located close together could support a central mill development scenario. Probe Metals is led by a management team with a track record of discovery and is well positioned to continue expanding its resources through aggressive drilling programs.

herein, including, without limitation, statements regarding future plans and objectives of Probe Metals Inc. (âthe Companyâ), future opportunities and anticipated goals, the companyâs portfolio,
treasury, management team, timetable to permitting and production and the prospective mineralization of the properties, are forward-looking statements that involve various risks, assumptions,
estimates and uncertainties. Generally, forward-looking information can be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology such as âseeksâ, âbelievesâ, âanticipatesâ, âplansâ, âcontinuesâ,
âbudgetâ, âscheduledâ, âestimatesâ, âexpectsâ, âforecastsâ, âintendsâ, âprojectsâ, âpredictsâ, âproposesâ, "potential", âtargetsâ and variations of such words and phrases, or by statements that certain
actions, events or results âmayâ, âwillâ, âcouldâ, âwouldâ, âshouldâ or âmightâ, âbe takenâ, âoccurâ or âbe achievedâ. There can be no assurance that such statements will prove to be accurate, and
actual results and future events could differ materially from those anticipated in such statements. Forward-looking information is subject to known and unknown risks, including but not limited to: an
inability to complete the business combination; general business, economic, competitive, geopolitical and social uncertainties; delays in obtaining or failures to obtain required governmental,
regulatory, environmental or other required approval; the actual results of current exploration activities; acquisition risks; and other risks of the mining and resource industry. Although the Company

National Instrument 43-101
Technical and scientific information contained herein relating to the Projects is derived from National Instrument 43-101 (âNI 43-101â) compliant technical reports (âReportsâ) Mineral Resources Val
dâOr East Property dated August 28, 2019. Technical and scientific information not contained within the Report and contained in this Presentation has been reviewed and approved by Independent
Qualified Person Merouane Rachidi, Ph. D., P.Geo and Calude Duplessis., from GoldMinds Geoservices, who are the independent âqualified personâ under NI 43-101. The Technical Report will be
available for revision on SEDAR at www.SEDAR.com under the Companyâs profile. This Presentation uses the terms âindicated resourcesâ and âinferred resourcesâ. Although these terms are
recognized and required by Canadian regulations (under NI 43-101), the United States Securities and Exchange Commission does not recognize them. Mineral resources which are not mineral
reserves do not have demonstrated economic viability. The estimate of mineral resources may be materially affected by environmental, permitting, legal, title, taxation, socio-political, marketing, or
other relevant issues. There is no guarantee that all or any part of the mineral resource will be converted into mineral reserves. In addition, âinferred resourcesâ have a great amount of uncertainty as
to their existence, and 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 pre feasibility studies, or economic studies, except for a Preliminary Assessment as defined under NI 43-101. Investors
are cautioned not to assume that part or all of an inferred resource exists, or is economically or legally mineable.
