forward-looking statements, except as required by law.
Forward-looking statements relate to future events or future performance and reflect current expectations or beliefs regarding future events and include,
but are not limited to, statements with respect to: (i) the amount of mineral resources and exploration targets; (ii) the amount of future production over any
period; (iii) net present value and internal rates of return of the mining operation; (iv) assumptions relating to recovered grade, average ore recovery,
internal dilution, mining dilution and other mining parameters set out in the Feasibility Study or Optimization Study; (v) assumptions relating to gross
revenues, operating cash flow and other revenue metrics set out in the Feasibility Study or Optimization Study; (vi) mine expansion potential and expected
mine life; (vii) expected time frames for completion of permitting and regulatory approvals and making a production decision; (viii) future exploration plans;
(ix) future market prices for rough diamonds; and (x) sources of and anticipated financing requirements. Any statements that express or involve
discussions with respect to predictions, expectations, beliefs, plans, projections, objectives, assumptions or future events or performance (often, but not
always, using words or phrases such as “expects”, “anticipates”, “plans”, “projects”, “estimates”, “assumes”, “intends”, “strategy”, “goals”, “objectives” or
variations thereof or stating that certain actions, events or results “may”, “could”, “would”, “might” or “will” be taken, occur or be achieved, or the negative of
any of these terms and similar expressions) are not statements of historical fact and may be forward-looking statements.
Forward-looking statements are made based upon certain assumptions and other important factors that, if untrue, could cause the actual results,
performances or achievements of Stornoway to be materially different from future results, performances or achievements expressed or implied by such
statements. Such statements and information are based on numerous assumptions regarding present and future business strategies and the environment
in which Stornoway will operate in the future, including the price of diamonds, anticipated costs and Stornoway’s ability to achieve its goals. Certain
important factors that could cause actual results, performances or achievements to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements include,
but are not limited to: (i) required capital investment and estimated workforce requirements; (ii) estimates of net present value and internal rates of return;
(iii) receipt of regulatory approvals on acceptable terms within commonly experienced time frames; (iv) the assumption that a production decision will be
made, and that decision will be positive; (v) anticipated timelines for the commencement of mine production; (vi) market prices for rough diamonds and the
potential impact on the Renard Project’s value; and (vii) future exploration plans and objectives. Additional risks are described in Stornoway's most recently
filed Annual Information Form, annual and interim MD&As, and other disclosure documents available under the Company’s profile at: www.sedar.com.

Comments on Stornoway’s Project Financing
The Renard Project is Ready to Build
Final Project Financing is the Last Remaining
Challenge Before Construction can Begin

Despite very difficult market conditions, in the past 18
months Stornoway has successfully arranged up to
$144m of financing ($124m debt, $20m equity) for road
and airport construction, permitting, design optimization
work, engineering and financing costs.
The timely completion of final mine project financing,
and its impact on project schedule, is the principal risk
Stornoway currently faces.
Project financing discussions with lenders and
prospective investors are ongoing and progressing well.

Stornoway is Fully Focused on the Timely
Completion of Final Project Financing
6

Why does the Renard Project Stand Out from the Pack?
What Other Mining Project Offers all of these
Advantages to Investors?
Renard will have a high margin with high
cash flow: it is a major new project.
Renard has strong social acceptability.

Renard is in one of the world’s safest
jurisdictions for mining investment (still).
Renard will be the first Canadian
diamond mine with an all-season road.
Renard has enough resource upside for
potentially decades of mining.
Renard is owned 100% by Stornoway:
our partners are our shareholders and in
our communities.

Diamonds are an essential part of our
culture, and very difficult to find.

Regulatory and Fiscal Regime in Québec Settled
The last 12 months has seen proposed changes to the Québec’s system of mining
taxes and royalties, and mine closure bonds.
Stornoway participated in the Government of Québec’s consultation process and,
although impacted by these changes, welcomes the balanced approach that has
been taken.

Québec remains a leading destination for mining investment, and we look forward to
developing Renard at a time of regulatory and fiscal certainty.
For mine planning, Stornoway assumes the new hybrid fiscal regime, being the
greater of the “Minimum Mining Tax” or “Progressive Mining Tax”
Stornoway does not anticipate a major impact on the Renard Project from the new
Mining Act still under assessment in the Québec National Assembly.
Québec remains one of the world’s leading mining
jurisdictions offering :
• Regulatory Stability
• Institutional Support
• Expertise
• Infrastructure
28

The Renard Optimization Study
Released January 2013
Since the release of the Renard Feasiblity
Study in November 2011, Stornoway has
sought improvements in the project’s cost and
operating parameters.
The Renard Optimization Study was released
in January 2013, and included:
• A reduced initial capital cost, principally
through deferral of the shaft.
• Increased project NPV and IRR.
• Maintained high operating margin.
• A refined underground mining sequence
and draw point design.

Accommodation Complex

Additional design optimization and engineering
work is ongoing in partnership with a joint
venture made up of SNC-Lavalin Inc. and
AMEC Americas Ltd. under an interim
agreement pending completion of the project’s
EPCM contract at time of project financing.
Process and Power Plants
Liquefied Natural Gas Power Plant
Feasibility Study Released October 2013
With a view to project optimization,
Stornoway has been investigating more
cost efficient alternatives for on-site power
supply than traditional diesel fuelled gensets.
A Hydro-Quebec powerline has been ruled
out in the short term due to high cap-ex
cost.
On October 21st Stornoway announced it
will proceed with an LNG fuelled gen-set
option, made possible by the ability to
receive regular cryogenic LNG shipments
on the Renard Mine Road.
The Renard LNG plant will comprise seven
2.1MW rated gas gen-sets, providing
sufficient power generation capacity for the
project’s normal operating specification of
9.5MW.

29
30

Liquefied Natural Gas Power Plant
Feasibility Study Released October 2013
An LNG fuelled powerplant for Renard offers many advantages over diesel:
• Greatly reduced annual operating costs of $8m to $10m per year, for a small incremental capital cost
of $2.6m.
• Up to 43% less greenhouse gas emissions.
• Long term, stable supply market utilizing existing commercial distribution network within Quebec.
• Elimination of on-site propane, as LNG will be used for building and underground mine heating.

Diesel will continue to be used for the mobile mining fleet and construction activities

Revised Mineral Resource Statement Release July 2013
Renard 65
Renard 3

In July 2013 Stornoway release the results of a revised
Mineral Resource Statement with a 14% increase in
contained carats within the Indicated Resource category.
This followed the successful completion of a 5,000 tonne
bulk sample at Renard 65 in 2012 and the recovery of 997
carats of diamonds for valuation.
The Renard 65 bulk sample returned the highest value
diamonds to date at the Renard Project, with a March
2013 valuation of US$250/ct, giving a base model of
US$180/ct (sensitivities of $203 & $169).
Upon conversion to a Mineral Reserve, this material may
be incorporated into the mine plan in two ways:
1. add 1 year to the LOM and increase the production
rate to 2.5Mt/a or
2. add 3 years to the LOM as a reserve tail at a
production rate of 2.1Mt/a
The cost of developing a 75m deep pit at Renard 65 is
already contained within the Feasibility Study.
Notes: Reserve and Resource categories are compliant with the "CIM Definition
Standards on Mineral Resources and Reserves". Mineral resources that are not
mineral reserves do not have demonstrated economic viability. The potential quantity
and grade of any Exploration Target is conceptual in nature, and it is uncertain if
further exploration will result in the target being delineated as a mineral resource.
Mineral reserves are not a sub-set of mineral resources.

Notes: Reserve and Resource categories are compliant with the "CIM Definition Standards on Mineral Resources and Reserves". Mineral resources that are not mineral reserves do not have
demonstrated economic viability. The potential quantity and grade of any Exploration Target (previously referred to as a “Potential Mineral Deposit”) is conceptual in nature, and it is uncertain if
further exploration will result in the target being delineated as a mineral resource. Mineral reserves are not a sub-set of mineral resources.

  • 2. 2 Forward-Looking Information This presentation contains "forward-looking information" within the meaning of Canadian securities legislation and “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the United States Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. This information and these statements, referred to herein as “forwardlooking statements”, are made as of the date of this presentation and the Company does not intend, and does not assume any obligation, to update these forward-looking statements, except as required by law. Forward-looking statements relate to future events or future performance and reflect current expectations or beliefs regarding future events and include, but are not limited to, statements with respect to: (i) the amount of mineral resources and exploration targets; (ii) the amount of future production over any period; (iii) net present value and internal rates of return of the mining operation; (iv) assumptions relating to recovered grade, average ore recovery, internal dilution, mining dilution and other mining parameters set out in the Feasibility Study or Optimization Study; (v) assumptions relating to gross revenues, operating cash flow and other revenue metrics set out in the Feasibility Study or Optimization Study; (vi) mine expansion potential and expected mine life; (vii) expected time frames for completion of permitting and regulatory approvals and making a production decision; (viii) future exploration plans; (ix) future market prices for rough diamonds; and (x) sources of and anticipated financing requirements. Any statements that express or involve discussions with respect to predictions, expectations, beliefs, plans, projections, objectives, assumptions or future events or performance (often, but not always, using words or phrases such as “expects”, “anticipates”, “plans”, “projects”, “estimates”, “assumes”, “intends”, “strategy”, “goals”, “objectives” or variations thereof or stating that certain actions, events or results “may”, “could”, “would”, “might” or “will” be taken, occur or be achieved, or the negative of any of these terms and similar expressions) are not statements of historical fact and may be forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are made based upon certain assumptions and other important factors that, if untrue, could cause the actual results, performances or achievements of Stornoway to be materially different from future results, performances or achievements expressed or implied by such statements. Such statements and information are based on numerous assumptions regarding present and future business strategies and the environment in which Stornoway will operate in the future, including the price of diamonds, anticipated costs and Stornoway’s ability to achieve its goals. Certain important factors that could cause actual results, performances or achievements to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to: (i) required capital investment and estimated workforce requirements; (ii) estimates of net present value and internal rates of return; (iii) receipt of regulatory approvals on acceptable terms within commonly experienced time frames; (iv) the assumption that a production decision will be made, and that decision will be positive; (v) anticipated timelines for the commencement of mine production; (vi) market prices for rough diamonds and the potential impact on the Renard Project’s value; and (vii) future exploration plans and objectives. Additional risks are described in Stornoway's most recently filed Annual Information Form, annual and interim MD&As, and other disclosure documents available under the Company’s profile at: www.sedar.com. When relying on our forward-looking statements to make decisions with respect to Stornoway, investors and others should carefully consider the foregoing factors and other uncertainties and potential events. Stornoway does not undertake to update any forward-looking statement, whether written or oral, that may be made from time to time by Stornoway or on our behalf, except as required by law.

  • 5. 5 Comments on Stornoway’s Project Financing The Renard Project is Ready to Build Final Project Financing is the Last Remaining Challenge Before Construction can Begin Despite very difficult market conditions, in the past 18 months Stornoway has successfully arranged up to $144m of financing ($124m debt, $20m equity) for road and airport construction, permitting, design optimization work, engineering and financing costs. The timely completion of final mine project financing, and its impact on project schedule, is the principal risk Stornoway currently faces. Project financing discussions with lenders and prospective investors are ongoing and progressing well. Stornoway is Fully Focused on the Timely Completion of Final Project Financing
  • 6. 6 Why does the Renard Project Stand Out from the Pack? What Other Mining Project Offers all of these Advantages to Investors? Renard will have a high margin with high cash flow: it is a major new project. Renard has strong social acceptability. Renard is in one of the world’s safest jurisdictions for mining investment (still). Renard will be the first Canadian diamond mine with an all-season road. Renard has enough resource upside for potentially decades of mining. Renard is owned 100% by Stornoway: our partners are our shareholders and in our communities. Diamonds are an essential part of our culture, and very difficult to find.

  • 27. 27 Regulatory and Fiscal Regime in Québec Settled The last 12 months has seen proposed changes to the Québec’s system of mining taxes and royalties, and mine closure bonds. Stornoway participated in the Government of Québec’s consultation process and, although impacted by these changes, welcomes the balanced approach that has been taken. Québec remains a leading destination for mining investment, and we look forward to developing Renard at a time of regulatory and fiscal certainty. For mine planning, Stornoway assumes the new hybrid fiscal regime, being the greater of the “Minimum Mining Tax” or “Progressive Mining Tax” Stornoway does not anticipate a major impact on the Renard Project from the new Mining Act still under assessment in the Québec National Assembly. Québec remains one of the world’s leading mining jurisdictions offering : • Regulatory Stability • Institutional Support • Expertise • Infrastructure
  • 28. 28 The Renard Optimization Study Released January 2013 Since the release of the Renard Feasiblity Study in November 2011, Stornoway has sought improvements in the project’s cost and operating parameters. The Renard Optimization Study was released in January 2013, and included: • A reduced initial capital cost, principally through deferral of the shaft. • Increased project NPV and IRR. • Maintained high operating margin. • A refined underground mining sequence and draw point design. Accommodation Complex Additional design optimization and engineering work is ongoing in partnership with a joint venture made up of SNC-Lavalin Inc. and AMEC Americas Ltd. under an interim agreement pending completion of the project’s EPCM contract at time of project financing.

  • 29. Liquefied Natural Gas Power Plant Feasibility Study Released October 2013 With a view to project optimization, Stornoway has been investigating more cost efficient alternatives for on-site power supply than traditional diesel fuelled gensets. A Hydro-Quebec powerline has been ruled out in the short term due to high cap-ex cost. On October 21st Stornoway announced it will proceed with an LNG fuelled gen-set option, made possible by the ability to receive regular cryogenic LNG shipments on the Renard Mine Road. The Renard LNG plant will comprise seven 2.1MW rated gas gen-sets, providing sufficient power generation capacity for the project’s normal operating specification of 9.5MW. 29
  • 30. 30 Liquefied Natural Gas Power Plant Feasibility Study Released October 2013 An LNG fuelled powerplant for Renard offers many advantages over diesel: • Greatly reduced annual operating costs of $8m to $10m per year, for a small incremental capital cost of $2.6m. • Up to 43% less greenhouse gas emissions. • Long term, stable supply market utilizing existing commercial distribution network within Quebec. • Elimination of on-site propane, as LNG will be used for building and underground mine heating.

  • 31. Renard’s Resource is Continuing to Grow 31 Revised Mineral Resource Statement Release July 2013 Renard 65 Renard 3 In July 2013 Stornoway release the results of a revised Mineral Resource Statement with a 14% increase in contained carats within the Indicated Resource category. This followed the successful completion of a 5,000 tonne bulk sample at Renard 65 in 2012 and the recovery of 997 carats of diamonds for valuation. The Renard 65 bulk sample returned the highest value diamonds to date at the Renard Project, with a March 2013 valuation of US$250/ct, giving a base model of US$180/ct (sensitivities of $203 & $169). Upon conversion to a Mineral Reserve, this material may be incorporated into the mine plan in two ways: 1. add 1 year to the LOM and increase the production rate to 2.5Mt/a or 2. add 3 years to the LOM as a reserve tail at a production rate of 2.1Mt/a The cost of developing a 75m deep pit at Renard 65 is already contained within the Feasibility Study. Notes: Reserve and Resource categories are compliant with the "CIM Definition Standards on Mineral Resources and Reserves". Mineral resources that are not mineral reserves do not have demonstrated economic viability. The potential quantity and grade of any Exploration Target is conceptual in nature, and it is uncertain if further exploration will result in the target being delineated as a mineral resource. Mineral reserves are not a sub-set of mineral resources.
