Probe Metals is a well-funded Canadian gold explorer with a large land position in the Val d'Or East area of Quebec. The company has more than doubled its gold resource from 1.4M oz to 3.4M oz since 2018 through aggressive drilling. Probe has over $30M in cash and is undertaking a 90,000m drill program in 2020-2021 aimed at further expanding its resources and making new discoveries across its 435km2 land package, less than 5% of which has been explored to date. The management team has a track record of discoveries and is looking to repeat the success of its Borden gold project.

Forward Looking Information
This presentation may include certain “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of applicable Canadian securities legislation. All statements, other than statements of historical fact, included
herein, including, without limitation, statements regarding future plans and objectives of Probe Metals Inc. (“the Company”), future opportunities and anticipated goals, the company’s 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 “seeks”, “believes”, “anticipates”, “plans”, “continues”,
“budget”, “scheduled”, “estimates”, “expects”, “forecasts”, “intends”, “projects”, “predicts”, “proposes”, "potential", “targets” and variations of such words and phrases, or by statements that certain
actions, events or results “may”, “will”, “could”, “would”, “should” or “might”, “be taken”, “occur” or “be achieved”. 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
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. These statements reflect the current internal projections, expectations or beliefs of the Company are based on information currently available to the
Company. The Company do not undertake to update any forward-looking information, except in accordance with applicable securities laws. The Company believe that the expectations reflected in
those forward-looking statements are reasonable but no assurance can be given that these expectations will prove to be correct and such forward-looking statements included in this presentation

and are expressly qualified, in their entirety, by this cautionary statement.
National Instrument 43-101
Technical and scientific information contained herein relating to the Projects is derived from National Instrument 43-101 (“NI 43-101”) compliant technical reports (“Reports”) Mineral Resources Val
d’Or 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 “qualified person” under NI 43-101. The Technical Report will be
available for revision on SEDAR at www.SEDAR.com under the Company’s profile. This Presentation uses the terms “indicated resources” and “inferred resources”. 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, “inferred resources” 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.
