Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Information
This document contains certain forward-looking statements relating but not limited to the Company’s expectations, intentions, plans and beliefs.
Forward-looking information can often be identified by forward-looking words such as “anticipate”, “believe”, “expect”, “goal”, “plan”, “intent”,
“estimate”, “may” and “will” 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 “SEC”). In this document, we use the terms “measured”, “indicated” and “inferred” 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 “reserves”. 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 “reserves”.
Further, “inferred resources” 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 “inferred resources” exist or can be legally or economically mined, or that they will ever be upgraded
to a higher category.

• Large land position – 19,950 Hectares
• Control the entire greenstone belt
• Underexplored gold camp
• Well established infrastructure
Over 1 million ounces produced…..and much more to go

Key Drivers: Seabee Mine
Illustration of Alimak Mining process
Alimak mining method continues to perform well – dilution rates continue to be better than budget
Reduced underground waste development and increased production rates :
Ability to mine 100 metre high zone in 9 months vs 16-18 months
Reduced annual development cost by approximately $5.0 million
Forecast to be 40% of 2015 annual gold production tonnage
Faster, Cheaper More Productive
Utilizing Alimak
Mining Method for
Improved Efficiency
Seabee Mine
14. 14
Focused on Delivering Higher Margin Ore to the Mill
Change in mining method at Santoy Gap (Transverse vs. Long-hole) increased grade and reduced dilution
Santoy Gap mineral reserve grade increased by 35% to 7.64 g/t from 5.68 g/t
The 45% increase in Inferred ounces was driven by the significant expansion of the Santoy 8 ore body
A significant 2015 underground drilling program of ~65,000 metres is expected to drive mineral reserve and
mineral resource growth

2015 Exploration - Seabee
Priority Targets
Seabee near-mine environment remains very prospective, underexplored and is a very low-cost
environment to explore (cost of drilling is approx. $20/metre )
Targets identified and ranked based on specific criteria:
Grade and Structure of historical drillhole intercepts vs. Grade Potential
Structural Endowment and Accessibility of the overall structure
2015 drilling will test up to 7 priority UG targets totalling 10,000 metres
Leveraging Seabee infrastructure:
50,000 to 100,000 ounces lenses can be economic
