Summary

Practical Mining LLC (PM) and P&E Mining Consultants Inc. (P&E) were engaged by Klondex Mines Ltd.(KDX), to prepare a Technical Report (TR) in accordance with National Instrument 43-101 (NI 43-101) of the Canadian Securities Administrators. PM’s and P&E’s evaluation of the True North Mine (True North Project, True North, or the Project), located in Bissett, Manitoba, Canada, is presented herein. This TR, dated the 8th day of May 2018, with an effective date of March 31, 2018 provides the initial Mineral Resource Estimate for the Project.

  1.1.

Introduction

True North is located in southeast Manitoba, Canada at the edge of Bissett township on the north shore of Rice Lake. It lies approximately 100 miles (162 kilometers) northeast of Winnipeg, roughly 150 driving miles (234 kilometers) via all-weather Provincial highways. The town of Bissett is a long-established mining community with a fluctuating population which is currently approximately 340 people.

The mine accesses quartz vein gold mineralization using shafts and underground mining methods. The Project has an on-site processing facility comprising crushing, grinding, gravity concentration and flotation. A Carbon-in-Pulp (CIP) circuit treats the tailings from the gravity circuit.

Klondex Canada Limited (KC) acquired the property from San Gold Corporation in early 2016 for total consideration of US$31.1M. Mining and processing operations began later that year. KC also implemented an underground drilling program to expand the mineral resource. Klondex Canada is a wholly owned subsidiary of Klondex Mines Ltd. (KDX). (Klondex 2018)

On March 19, 2018 KDX and Hecla Mining Company (Hecla) announced the latter’s purchase of KDX. Coincident to the purchase, the Canadian assets of KDX including Klondex Canada and the True North Project is to be part of Havilah Mining Corporation (HMC or the Company) under a plan of arrangement. HMC is a newly formed entity independent of KDX and Hecla. The True North Project will be the only material asset of HMC and this TR provides the initial estimate of Mineral Resources for the Project prior to the ownership by HMC.

  1.2.

Property

Land holdings at True North were acquired by KDX through bankruptcy proceedings of the San Gold assets in early 2016. The former San Gold property includes the True North Project, and regional land package consisting of 18 patented mining claims, 262 unpatented mining claims and 2 mineral leases totaling 97,282-acres (39,369 ha).

Practical Mining LLC May 8, 2018



Page 16 Summary Havilah Mining
    Corporation

Additionally, the land package includes a 50% interest in 27 unpatented mining claims, through a jointly heldwith Greenbelt Gold Mines Inc. covering 1,013-acres (410 ha).

For the purposes of this initial Resource Estimate, all resource data is strictly contained in the footprint of the Mineral Leases (2,695 ac) (1,091 ha); and not from the broader land package.

  1.3.

Environmental and Permitting

KC revised the existing Environmental Act License (License) for True North which includes approvals for minor alternations required for operation. The San Gold Mine Closure Plan (2012) (Closure Plan) and the pledged fixed-asset financial security for mine closure were transferred to KDX in January 2016.

KC collected all required environmental monitoring data including but not limited to: water quality sampling, environmental effects monitoring, final effluent release reporting, and forms part of the True North procedures for the sites environmental management system. KC engaged local stakeholders and indigenous communities, and supports the regional economy by practicing the procurement of local goods, services and employment opportunities.

  1.4.

Geology

All the major gold occurrences in the True North area occur as quartz veins or quartz vein systems formed during structural deformation of the host rocks. At the Project, gold mineralization is controlled by quartz-carbonate veins and vein systems in brittle-ductile structures with related hydrothermal alteration halos within or at the margin of particular host rock units.

All of the gold mineralized zones at the Project are hosted in rocks of the Bidou Lake Assemblage which forms a north-facing stratigraphic sequence of tholeiitic basalt to intermediate volcanic flows, dacite crystal tuffs and breccias overlain by well stratified felsic epiclastic rock interpreted to be of pyroclastic and sedimentary origins. The stratigraphic sequence is intruded by tholeiitic gabbro sills and dykes, and felsic porphyry dykes.

The best-known gabbro sill is the San Antonio Unit, which is host rock for much of the gold mineralization the True North. The Bidou Lake Assemblage is unconformably overlain by feldspathic sandstone of the San Antonio Assemblage.

The gold mineralized veins show a high degree of structural control and are best developed in competent mafic host rock ranging from intermediate to gabbroic in composition.

Gold was originally discovered on the Project in 1911, however, it was not until the 1920s that the construction of A-Shaft to a depth of 725 feet (221 meters) and approximately 2,000 feet (600 meters) of underground lateral development confirmed the presence of an economically viable mineral resource.

Small scale production from underground mining commenced in 1932 and production increased to about 500 tons per day (450 tonnes per day) in 1948. A fire destroyed some of the surface facilities in 1968, and as a result production was suspended. Beginning from the late 1990s, production was intermittent under various ownerships, until 2016 when KDX acquired a 100% interest of the assets through bankruptcy proceedings.

True North includes six underground mines (i.e. Cohiba Zone, SG-1, 710/711 Zone, 007 Zone, Hinge Zone, Rice Lake), a vertical shaft, two decline ramps, a mill, an ore feed pad, mill feed crushing and conveying, a waste rock management area, and a tailings management area (“TMA”).

A-Shaft provides primary access from surface to the 26-level located 4,000 feet below the surface. Three internal winzes and extensive underground drifting connects the A-Shaft to the mineralized veins. Access to the Hinge, Cohiba and 007 mineralization is via two portals and internal ramp systems. Mineralization mined at True North since 1927 has contained approximately 1.86 million ounces of gold.

During 2016 – 2017 the True North Mine recovered 33,000 gold ounces from 292 ktons of mineralization grading 0.127 opt. The project also initiated the reprocessing of tailings material and 113 ktons of tailings were treated at an average grade of 0.05 opt. Tailings metallurgical recovery during this period averaged 91% and yielded 5,100 gold ounces. The mine was placed on care and maintenance status in January 2018.

  1.6.

Underground Mineral Resources

The mineral resource estimate is based on data from 4,678 surface and underground drill-holes, completed through February 1, 2018. This estimate also includes 30,202 channel samples obtained from underground drifting.

Wire frame models were constructed for 73 vein sets. The vein models were constructed by creating wireframes of the hanging and footwall contacts, obtained from the drill hole database. Each relevant contact is identified as either the hanging wall or footwall of the vein. Software is used to wireframe the contacts separately. Assay values were composited to the vein width and truncated to 10-foot lengths. Only composites flagged as representing vein material were used in the grade estimation. A grade capping scheme based on resource category and vein was employed. Grades were assigned to individual blocks using the Inverse Distance Cubed method (ID3).

Practical Mining LLC May 8, 2018



Havilah Mining Technical Report for the True North Mine, Bissett, Page 19
Corporation. Manitoba, Canada  

Vein models were developed by KDX based on a scripted grid modelling workflow using Maptek Vulcan software. Grid modelling is applicable to modelling narrow, continuous geological features such as precious metal veins and coal seams and creates a surface by interpolating a regular grid of points over a modelling area. These grid points are combined with the input intercepts to create output triangulated surfaces that represent the vein hanging wall and footwall contacts. The contacts are combined to create a valid solid triangulation for use in building the resource block model.

The 73 veins were each assigned a specific search orientation based on their respective approximate dip and dip direction. Measured blocks require a minimum of four composite samples within an average anisotropic search radius of 50 feet. Indicated blocks required three drill hole intercepts within 100 feet. Inferred blocks required two drill intercepts within 500 feet. Grades were estimated only for blocks contained within the modeled veins.

Mineral resources were estimated only for blocks within the modeled vein wireframes. In all cases, the vein boundary was treated as a “hard” boundary and mineralization is not modelled outside of those boundaries.

Underground Mineral Resources include sufficient barren waste dilution to achieve a minimum mining width of four feet or the vein thickness plus two feet whichever is greater plus an additional 10% unplanned dilution. Additional parameters used in the estimation of Underground Mineral Resources are as follows;

  Mining processing and administrative costs of US$130 per ton;
  Metallurgical gold recovery of 93%;
  Gold price of US$1,400 per ounce, and;
  Cut-off grade of 0.10 Au opt.

Tailings Mineral Resources

Assay results from 138 augur and percussion drill-holes spaced approximately 200 feet by 100 feet were used to model the tailings resource. Blocks were estimated using inverse distance cubed (ID3) methods. Blocks were classified as indicated if there is a minimum of three drill-holes within 250 feet and inferred if at least one Drill-hole is present within 250 feet. The tailings mineral resource is constrained to a Lerch Grossman optimized pit shell created with the following parameters:

  Gold price of US$1400 per ounce;
  Metallurgical gold recovery of 89%,
  Wall slope 30 degrees;
  Mining Cost of US$2.40 per ton; and;

Conclusions

PM is of the opinion that the core, channel chip and tailings sample assay data have been adequately verified for the purposes of a mineral resource estimate. All data included in the resource estimate appear to be of adequate quality.

The mining and processing methods in use at True North have been proven effective by the history of previous operators. Geotechnical risks are limited as shown by the large extent of underground workings.

With longhole mining there is increased risk hanging wall dilution along foliation planes and jointing as excavation size increases. The dilution encountered may be greater than the dilution included in the estimation of Mineral Resources and may have a negative impact on the quantity and quality of the Mineral Resources. In these areas alternative more selective and higher cost mining methods may be required.

The pre-existing mine closure plan that estimated closure costs at US3.25M (C$4.4M) was transferred to KC in January 2016 along with an assignment of fixed-assets as financial security. It may be beneficial for HMC to review the technical basis of the TMA closure approach presented in the 2012 mine closure plan and update the associated closure costs.

HMC is aware of the importance of an effective community engagement process to the Project. HMC should continue to enhance community engagement activities with local Indigenous communities, the Town of Bissett, other interested stakeholders, and regulatory agencies; on a priority basis.

The True North infrastructure is capable of supporting long term mining operations. HMC should explore for additional opportunities in the surrounding area which can supplement future operations.

  1.9.

Recommendations

It is recommended that HMC take the following actions to maximize the value of the Project. The work programs described should occur concurrently with an integrated decision on proceeding with development made at the conclusion of all the work programs listed below.

Geology

  1.

Technical Database: All True North project data collected is stored and archived in a permanent and reliably retrieval manner. The database is currently administered by KDX corporate personnel. HMC should engage a full-time database administrator to continue this function.


Practical Mining LLC May 8, 2018



Page 22 Summary Havilah Mining
    Corporation

  2.

Quality Assurance/Quality Control: Timely follow-up for all QA/QC assay deviations and re-assay requests should be performed in a timely manner. The process should be automated.

  3.

Sample Storage and Retrieval: Half-core remaining from sample assays should be retained for reference and check assay purposes. All assay sample rejects and pulps should be stored in a safe, secure and sheltered manner and properly catalogued to ease retrieval.

  4.

Project Assay Lab: Standard operating procedures should be updated, particularly in regard to assay data generation, storage and retrieval.

Exploration

  1.

The True North geological model which targets major structures as identified in surface lidar, drill core and geological mapping within favorable host rock conditions has proven successful in identifying new vein systems. HMC should continue to develop this existing model to target near mine ore sources as well as apply its principals to the regional land package.

  2.

Future exploration programs should focus on regional scale data compilation followed by target generation by prediction and evaluation.

  3.

Further examination for the potential of Timiskaming type gold mineralization at the unconformity at the base of the San Antonio formation.

  4.

Evaluation of the historic Gunnar Mine and the presence of neighboring quartz carbonate vein systems.

Exploration activities are estimated to cost between US$500,000 and $800,000 ($C625,000 and $1,000,000) and should proceed over the next one to two years.

Environmental and Mine Closure

It is recommended that HMC review the technical basis of the TMA closure approach presented in the 2012 mine closure plan and update the associated closure costs. A provisional amount for a US$250,000 (C$325,000) study that would be carried out over four years commencing in 2018 is recommended. This exercise will review and confirm the technical basis of the proposed TMA closure plan and estimated costs and possibly identify opportunities to improve upon the currently proposed approach.

Mineral Resources

Mineral Resources are sub-divided, in order of increasing geological confidence, into Inferred, Indicated and Measured categories. An Inferred Mineral Resource has a lower level of confidence than that applied to an Indicated Mineral Resource. An Indicated Mineral Resource has a higher level of confidence than an Inferred Mineral Resource but has a lower level of confidence than a Measured Mineral Resource.

A Mineral Resource is a concentration or occurrence of solid material of economic interest in or on the Earth’s crust in such form, grade or quality and quantity that there are reasonable prospects for eventual economic extraction.

The location, quantity, grade or quality, continuity and other geological characteristics of a Mineral Resource are known, estimated or interpreted from specific geological evidence and knowledge, including sampling.

Material of economic interest refers to diamonds, natural solid inorganic material, or natural solid fossilized organic material including base and precious metals, coal, and industrial minerals.

Practical Mining LLC May 8, 2018



Havilah Mining Technical Report for the True North Mine, Bissett, Page 29
Corporation Manitoba, Canada  

The term Mineral Resource covers mineralization and natural material of intrinsic economic interest which has been identified and estimated through exploration and sampling and within which Mineral Reserves may subsequently be defined by the consideration and application of Modifying Factors. The phrase ‘reasonable prospects for eventual economic extraction’ implies a judgment by the Qualified Person in respect of the technical and economic factors likely to influence the prospect of economic extraction. The Qualified Person should consider and clearly state the basis for determining that the material has reasonable prospects for eventual economic extraction. Assumptions should include estimates of cut-off grade and geological continuity at the selected cut-off, metallurgical recovery, smelter payments, commodity price or product value, mining and processing method and mining, processing and general and administrative costs. The Qualified Person should state if the assessment is based on any direct evidence and testing.

Interpretation of the word ‘eventual’ in this context may vary depending on the commodity or mineral involved. For example, for some coal, iron, potash deposits and other bulk minerals or commodities, it may be reasonable to envisage ‘eventual economic extraction’ as covering time periods in excess of 50 years. However, for many gold deposits, application of the concept would normally be restricted to perhaps 10 to 15 years, and frequently to much shorter periods of time.

Inferred Mineral Resource

An Inferred Mineral Resource is that part of a Mineral Resource for which quantity and grade or quality are estimated on the basis of limited geological evidence and sampling. Geological evidence is sufficient to imply but not verify geological and grade or quality continuity.

An Inferred Mineral Resource has a lower level of confidence than that applying to an Indicated Mineral Resource and must not be converted to a Mineral Reserve. It is reasonably expected that the majority of Inferred Mineral Resources could be upgraded to Indicated Mineral Resources with continued exploration.

An Inferred Mineral Resource is based on limited information and sampling gathered through appropriate sampling techniques from locations such as outcrops, trenches, pits, workings and drill-holes. Inferred Mineral Resources must not be included in the economic analysis, production schedules, or estimated mine life in publicly disclosed Pre-Feasibility or Feasibility Studies, or in the Life of Mine plans and cash flow models of developed mines. Inferred Mineral Resources can only be used in economic studies as provided under NI 43-101.

There may be circumstances, where appropriate sampling, testing, and other measurements are sufficient to demonstrate data integrity, geological and grade/quality continuity of a Measured or Indicated Mineral Resource, however, quality assurance and quality control, or other information may not meet all industry norms for the disclosure of an Indicated or Measured Mineral Resource. Under these circumstances, it may be reasonable for the Qualified Person to report an Inferred Mineral Resource if the Qualified Person has taken steps to verify the information meets the requirements of an Inferred Mineral Resource

Indicated Mineral Resource

An Indicated Mineral Resource is that part of a Mineral Resource for which quantity, grade or quality, densities, shape and physical characteristics are estimated with sufficient confidence to allow the application of Modifying Factors in sufficient detail to support mine planning and evaluation of the economic viability of the deposit.

Geological evidence is derived from adequately detailed and reliable exploration, sampling and testing and is sufficient to assume geological and grade or quality continuity between points of observation.

An Indicated Mineral Resource has a lower level of confidence than that applying to a Measured Mineral Resource and may only be converted to a Probable Mineral Reserve.

Mineralization may be classified as an Indicated Mineral Resource by the Qualified Person when the nature, quality, quantity and distribution of data are such as to allow confident interpretation of the geological framework and to reasonably assume the continuity of mineralization. The Qualified Person must recognize the importance of the Indicated Mineral Resource category to the advancement of the feasibility of the project. An Indicated Mineral Resource estimate is of sufficient quality to support a Pre-Feasibility Study which can serve as the basis for major development decisions.

Measured Mineral Resource

A Measured Mineral Resource is that part of a Mineral Resource for which quantity, grade or quality, densities, shape, and physical characteristics are estimated with confidence sufficient to allow the application of Modifying Factors to support detailed mine planning and final evaluation of the economic viability of the deposit.

Geological evidence is derived from detailed and reliable exploration, sampling and testing and is sufficient to confirm geological and grade or quality continuity between points of observation.

A Measured Mineral Resource has a higher level of confidence than that applying to either an Indicated Mineral Resource or an Inferred Mineral Resource. It may be converted to a Proven Mineral Reserve or to a Probable Mineral Reserve.

Practical Mining LLC May 8, 2018



Havilah Mining Technical Report for the True North Mine, Bissett, Page 31
Corporation Manitoba, Canada  

Mineralization or other natural material of economic interest may be classified as a Measured Mineral Resource by the Qualified Person when the nature, quality, quantity and distribution of data are such that the tonnage and grade or quality of the mineralization can be estimated to within close limits and that variation from the estimate would not significantly affect potential economic viability of the deposit. This category requires a high level of confidence in, and understanding of, the geology and controls of the mineral deposit.

‘Modifying Factors’ are considerations used to convert Mineral Resources to Mineral Reserves. These include, but are not restricted to, mining, processing, metallurgical, infrastructure, economic, marketing, legal, environmental, social and governmental factors.

Mineral Reserve

Mineral Reserves are sub-divided in order of increasing confidence into Probable Mineral Reserves and Proven Mineral Reserves. A Probable Mineral Reserve has a lower level of confidence than a Proven Mineral Reserve.

A Mineral Reserve is the economically mineable part of a Measured and/or Indicated Mineral Resource. It includes diluting materials and allowances for losses, which may occur when the material is mined or extracted and is defined by studies at Pre-Feasibility or Feasibility level as appropriate that include application of Modifying Factors. Such studies demonstrate that, at the time of reporting, extraction could reasonably be justified.

The reference point at which Mineral Reserves are defined, usually the point where the ore is delivered to the processing plant, must be stated. It is important that, in all situations where the reference point is different, such as for a saleable product, a clarifying statement is included to ensure that the reader is fully informed as to what is being reported.

The public disclosure of a Mineral Reserve must be demonstrated by a Pre-Feasibility Study or Feasibility Study.

Mineral Reserves are those parts of Mineral Resources which, after the application of all mining factors, result in an estimated tonnage and grade which, in the opinion of the Qualified Person(s) making the estimates, is the basis of an economically viable project after taking account of all relevant Modifying Factors. Mineral Reserves are inclusive of diluting material that will be mined in conjunction with the Mineral Reserves and delivered to the treatment plant or equivalent facility. The term ‘Mineral Reserve’ need not necessarily signify that extraction facilities are in place or operative or that all governmental approvals have been received. It does signify that there are reasonable expectations of such approvals.

‘Reference point’ refers to the mining or process point at which the Qualified Person prepares a Mineral Reserve. For example, most metal deposits disclose mineral reserves with a “mill feed” reference point. In these cases, reserves are reported as mined ore delivered to the plant and do not include reductions attributed to anticipated plant losses. In contrast, coal reserves have traditionally been reported as tonnes of “clean coal”. In this coal example, reserves are reported as a “saleable product” reference point and include reductions for plant yield (recovery). The Qualified Person must clearly state the ‘reference point’ used in the Mineral Reserve estimate.

Probable Mineral Reserve

A Probable Mineral Reserve is the economically mineable part of an Indicated, and in some circumstances, a Measured Mineral Resource. The confidence in the Modifying Factors applying to a Probable Mineral Reserve is lower than that applying to a Proven Mineral Reserve.

The Qualified Person(s) may elect, to convert Measured Mineral Resources to Probable Mineral Reserves if the confidence in the Modifying Factors is lower than that applied to a Proven Mineral Reserve. Probable Mineral Reserve estimates must be demonstrated to be economic, at the time of reporting, by at least a Pre-Feasibility Study.

Proven Mineral Reserve (Proved Mineral Reserve)

A Proven Mineral Reserve is the economically mineable part of a Measured Mineral Resource. A Proven Mineral Reserve implies a high degree of confidence in the Modifying Factors.

Application of the Proven Mineral Reserve category implies that the Qualified Person has the highest degree of confidence in the estimate with the consequent expectation in the minds of the readers of the report. The term should be restricted to that part of the deposit where production planning is taking place and for which any variation in the estimate would not significantly affect the potential economic viability of the deposit. Proven Mineral Reserve estimates must be demonstrated to be economic, at the time of reporting, by at least a Pre-Feasibility Study. Within the CIM Definition standards the term Proved Mineral Reserve is an equivalent term to a Proven Mineral Reserve.

Pre-Feasibility Study (Preliminary Feasibility Study)

The CIM Definition Standards requires the completion of a Pre-Feasibility Study as the minimum prerequisite for the conversion of Mineral Resources to Mineral Reserves.

A Pre-Feasibility Study is a comprehensive study of a range of options for the technical and economic viability of a mineral project that has advanced to a stage where a preferred mining method, in the case of underground mining, or the pit configuration, in the case of an open pit, is established and an effective method of mineral processing is determined. It includes a financial analysis based on reasonable assumptions on the Modifying Factors and the evaluation of any other relevant factors which are sufficient for a Qualified Person, acting reasonably, to determine if all or part of the Mineral Resource may be converted to a Mineral Reserve at the time of reporting. A Pre-Feasibility Study is at a lower confidence level than a Feasibility Study.

Havilah Mining Technical Report for the True North Mine, Bissett, Page 33

Feasibility Study

A Feasibility Study is a comprehensive technical and economic study of the selected development option for a mineral project that includes appropriately detailed assessments of applicable Modifying Factors together with any other relevant operational factors and detailed financial analysis that are necessary to demonstrate, at the time of reporting, that extraction is reasonably justified (economically mineable). The results of the study may reasonably serve as the basis for a final decision by a proponent or financial institution to proceed with, or finance, the development of the project. The confidence level of the study will be higher than that of a Pre-Feasibility Study.

The term proponent captures issuers who may finance a project without using traditional financial institutions. In these cases, the technical and economic confidence of the Feasibility Study is equivalent to that required by a financial institution.

Summary

The previous mine operator San Gold held an Environmental Act License covering mining, processing and the tailings management area for the Project. San Gold also held an accepted Mine Closure Plan and had pledged certain fixed assets to provide financial security for closure. KC has since obtained a revised Environmental Act License for the Project and subsequent approvals of minor alternations required for operations. The San Gold Mine Closure Plan (2012), and the pledged fixed-asset financial security for the mine closure plan were transferred to KC in January 2016.

KC continues to conduct environmental monitoring activities, including but not limited to; water quality sampling and environmental effects monitoring work; as part of the True North’s environmental management system.

In consideration of the historic activities and planned activities at this Project, the Author has reviewed historic and current information on the Project including: current legislation affecting mine permitting, operations and closure in Manitoba; the revised Environment Act License for mining, processing and tailings management recently issued to KC; relevant reports prepared as part of a harmonized federal-provincial environmental assessment for a tailings management expansion project approved in 2013, including public comments and indigenous community consultation conducted at that time; and other information. The Author also contacted the Author of the metallurgical components of this report in regard to the process plant complex and the Project’s Environmental Superintendent about the current environmental–social status of the Project.

Based on the available information, P&E is of the opinion that there do not appear to be any insurmountable environmental and/or social barriers to the Project.

Minor Alterations

Section 14 of The Environment Act requires notification and approval for alterations to a licensed Development. A notice of alteration submitted by a License holder is assessed by the Director as either minor, having insignificant environmental effects, or major, having significant environmental effects. Minor alterations may be approved through a revised Environment Act License or by a letter from the Director for Class 1 and 2 projects. Recent examples of requested alterations and approvals are provided below.

In March 2016, the Director of Manitoba Mineral Resources approved KC’s notice to recommence mining and processing operations. Subsequent to receiving approval, KC undertook a range of preparatory works such as; shaft guide replacement, underground track repair, narrow vein long hole layout testing, development of a new underground shop, mining gear storage cutouts, and metallurgical test work on historical tailings based on using the existing flow sheet.

In April 2016 KC issued a notice of alteration to the Development as licensed for early discharge of effluent (to commence on May 9, 2016) from the East TMA, and the implementation of a tailings re-processing project. The ETP contained about 780,000 m3 of water which met effluent discharge criterion. The proposed tailings re-processing alteration included the construction and operation of a tailings dredging system, a pumping station, booster pumps and a pipe line to be used to pump the tailings slurry to the existing process plant for re-processing. It was projected that 80,000 m3 to 150,000 m3 of tailings would be dredged in 2016 commencing on June 1st. The regulator determined that the potential effect of the proposed alteration would be minor in accordance with the Environment Act and approved the proposed alteration.

Practical Mining LLC May 8, 2018



Havilah Mining Technical Report for the True North Mine, Bissett, Page 45
Corporation Manitoba, Canada  

In May 2016 KC issued a notice of alteration for a one-year temporary increase in the ore stockpile limit from 10,000 tons to 50,000 tons (9,000 tonnes to 45,000 tonnes). The regulator determined that the potential effect request was a minor alteration in accordance with the Environment Act, and approved the alteration.

  d) Current Status / Mitigative Measures

On January 9, 2018 KC announced that the Project will be placed on care and maintenance status, after developed underground areas are mined. KC plans to continue processing tailings to help offset expected care and maintenance costs.

The current status of the Project as well as associated environmental aspects and mitigative measures are summarized in Table 4-3 based on the information obtained and P&E’s experience at other mine properties internationally.

Table 4-3 Potential Significant Environmental Impacts and Current Status / Mitigative Measures

Area Current Status / Mitigative Measures
Environmental
Management System

The revised Environmental Act License requires Klondex Canada to establish and implement an Environmental Management System (“EMS”). An EMS is a comprehensive system that would be expected to require without being limited to the development and communication of an environmental policy, the identification of significant environmental aspects, the identification of legal and other requirements, procedures, training, records, change management, consultation and complaint response, monitoring, EMS and compliance reviews, a corrective and preventative measures procedure to deal with a non-conformance, and emergency preparedness and response planning.

As part of other conditions of the environmental license it is expected that the EMS would also include solid waste reduction and recycling efforts; contingency plans for spills, ruptures and unexpected TMA seepage losses; and require spill recovery equipment. In addition, solid waste and hazardous wastes are to be disposed of in accordance with regulatory requirements; petroleum products are to be stored in accordance with regulatory requirements; and the sewage management system is subject to the Onsite Wastewater Management Systems Regulation.

Acid Rock Drainage

Test results included in the documentation reviewed by the Author indicate that waste rock and tailings are not acid generating. The revised environmental license requires ongoing scheduled acid:base account testing.

Area Current Status / Mitigative Measures

Final effluent

Klondex Canada is to reclaim as much water as possible from the TMA to supply the process water demands of the mill. Mine water is directed to the TMA. Treated effluent can only be released from the TMA polishing pond to No Name Creek and subsequently to the Wanipigow River between June 15 and November 30 each year at a rate not to exceed 0.20 m3/sec. Treated effluent cannot be released if the quality or toxicity of the effluent results in, or is likely to directly or cumulatively results in, a downstream water quality degradation beyond a maximum 10% mixing zone (by volume) within No Name Creek and/or the Wanipigow River relative to the Manitoba Water Quality Standards, Objectives and Guidelines Regulation under the Water Protection Act. Elevated levels of ammonia in mine water / polishing pond water occurred in years past possibly in part as a result of the dissolution of mine explosives and blasting agents. Best practices including improved blasting practices and reducing / avoiding ANFO use are now used to help avoid this potential issue.

Air emissions

Klondex Canada would maintain its diesel-powered equipment and mine air heater. As required by the environmental license: distinct plume forming fugitive emissions are not to exceed 5% opacity whilst non-plume forming fugitive emissions are to be not visible. Downwind off Project, point of impingement suspended particle matter ground level concentrations are not to exceed a 24 hour average of 120 µg/m3 or an annual geometric mean of 70 µg/m3.

Cyanide
transportation and
storage

Cyanide transfer, storage and mixing activities would be conducted in conformance with regulatory requirements and Klondex’s procedures and EMS requirements.

Tailings management

Tailings from the original San Antonio Gold Mine were discharged into Rice Lake from about 1932 to 1968. Tailings produced when the mine was reopened in 1981 to 1983 were placed in a containment constructed over the previously disposed tailings. The TMA is located north north-east of the mine and plant site and includes a tailings pond and a polishing pond. The final treated effluent is pumped and annually released to No Name Creek which flows to the Wanipigow River. The historic tailings that are being re- processed as part of the Project are located in the TMA. The revised Environmental Act License 2628 RRR requires Klondex to engage the services of licensed professional geotechnical engineers for engineering and quality control during dyke construction and submit a construction performance and quality control report to the Director for approval. Klondex’s Environmental Superintendent would monitor dykes and assess conditions / geotechnical monitoring data with input from competent geotechnical engineers.

Waste rock storage

New waste rock is to be stockpiled in the designated “waste rock stockpile area”. Ore is to be stored in the designated “ore rock stockpile area”. The License also requires the company to conduct acid:base accounting testing as indicated above.

Area Current Status / Mitigative Measures

Environmental
monitoring

Klondex uses the existing TMA and the water polishing ponds to manage surface water storage / release. An Inco SO2-air process and natural degradation continue to be used for cyanide destruction. TMA water management controls include polishing pond levels, water quality monitoring and a surface water management program. Surface water samples (i.e. mine water samples to be collected from the tailings ponds, polishing pond, treated effluent, downstream receiving water quality sampling stations) are to be sampled at frequencies and for parameters specified in the License while groundwater quality is to be monitored at specified groundwater wells and at additional wells as may be requested by the Director. Treated effluent toxicity testing is also required. Sediment core samples are to be collected at two downstream water quality sampling station locations and analyzed for total metals, total organic carbon, moisture content and pH. Klondex will continue to conduct scheduled downstream water quality sampling, sediment sampling, and environmental effects monitoring. Klondex has undertaken two environmental effects monitoring studies and has scheduled a third.

Solid waste

Solid non-hazardous waste that is not re-used / recycled would be disposed in an off-site licensed solid waste landfill.

Hazardous waste

Hazardous waste would be disposed of in accordance with regulatory requirements. Klondex is currently working to confirm that there are no electrical transformers that contain PCB in use or stored on the Project and that asbestos had been removed several years ago from all surface buildings with the exception of one secured unused old building.

Terrestrial and avian
wildlife

Klondex is aware of its responsibilities to protect wildlife. It is expected that this would be reflected in the EMS procedures.

Social consultation

Klondex to support community engagement activities with indigenous communities, the Town of Bissett, other interested stakeholders, and regulatory agencies.


  e)

Community Engagement

As part of 2012 TMA expansion project EAP, the Manitoba Mines Branch requested that Indigenous communities whose traditional activities may be impacted, be identified and engaged and that community issues be incorporated into the environmental assessment for the TMA. Winsor (2013) reported on the outcome of that consultation process and reported that:

Most of the concerns from constituents were a result of misinformation.

The Manitoba Mines Branch had determined that there are three Anishinaabe (Ojibwa) First Nations situated within an 80-mile (130 km) radius of the mine: the Hollow Water First Nation, the Little Black River First Nation, and the Sagkeeng First Nation. The Hollow Water First Nation is situated downstream of the confluence of No Name Creek and the Wanipigow River which flows to Lake Winnipeg.

Practical Mining LLC May 8, 2018



Page 48 Property Description and Location Havilah Mining
    Corporation

It was recommended that an Environment Act License be issued to San Gold in 2013 for the proposed TMA expansion subject to it accommodating community concerns and issues. As such, the draft License included a clause requiring the operator to submit an environmental monitoring report to the Hollow Water First Nation after each effluent discharge campaign summarizing monitoring data and impacts on the receiving waterways.

The Hollow Water Chief and Council encouraged direct negotiations between San Gold and two trappers. San Gold negotiated a confidential compensation settlement with one of the trappers (Trap Line #11) for loss of opportunity to trap in the proposed TMA expansion area, and at the time of reporting was negotiating a settlement with the second trapper (Trap Line #12).

San Gold had met with Hollow Water First Nation residents in June 2012 and discussed the potential impacts of the proposed TMA expansion. San Gold participated in the Hollow Water First Nation’s Traditional Area Advisory Committee (TAAC). The Kookom’s who opposed the TMA expansion did not have official standing in the community. San Gold had attempted to arrange an information meeting with the Little Black River First Nation situated in the O'Hanley and Black Rivers area on the eastern shore of Lake Winnipeg.

KC continues to engage local stakeholders and indigenous communities, and supports the regional economy by practicing the procurement of local goods, services and employment opportunities. The Town of Bissett is also kept informed of environmental matters that may potentially impact residents or community services. KC participates in Town of Bissett council meetings, and has held community information sessions.

  f)

Mine Closure

Mine closure planning and financial security provisions that apply to advanced exploration and mining projects are described in the Mine Closure Regulation (MR 67/99) under The Mines and Minerals Act (C.C.S.M. c.M162).

Responsibility for the accepted San Gold Corporation Mine Closure Plan (2012) for Mineral Lease ML-63 which includes pledged fixed assets financial security was transferred to KC on January 13, 2016 by the Mines Branch Director (Manitoba, 2016). The Author reviewed sections of the Mine Closure Plan (2012) and the estimated mine reclamation and rehabilitation costs presented by Gibson (2015). The estimated reclamation and rehabilitation costs amounted to US$3.5M (C$4.4M). There is a possibility that the Mines Branch may require an alternate form of financial security at some point in the future when the closure plan is updated.

Practical Mining LLC May 8, 2018



Havilah Mining Technical Report for the True North Mine, Bissett, Page 49
Corporation Manitoba, Canada  

As indicated in Section 10 “Expected Site Conditions” of the closure plan, the Project would be rehabilitated to a pre-development state, as a wilderness area with primarily conservation and recreational value. An additional crown pillar assessment would be completed at close-out to assure surface stability. The surface of the tailings in the TMA would be revegetated at closure. Pond water quality would continue to be monitored and excess water would be pumped / released to No Name Creek until the pond water quality is shown to improve to a level whereby a weir system could be used to direct excess run-off to No Name Creek. Environmental monitoring would continue to be conducted through each stage of closure to ensure that the mine remains compliant with environmental and safety requirements.

Accessibility, Climate, Vegetation, Physiography, Local Resources and Infrastructure


  5.1.

Access to Project

Bissett can be accessed from Winnipeg via all-weather provincial highways. A small emergency gravel airstrip is located 12 miles (19 km) east of Bissett. Rice Lake itself serves as a base for float-equipped aircraft during the ice-free months.

  5.2.

Climate

This area of eastern Manitoba has average annual precipitation of approximately 17 inches (430 mm) of rain. Winter snow accumulations of up to 57 inches (145 cm) occur between October and March. Average winter temperature is 3oF (-16°C) with extended periods of -4oF to -13oF (-20°C to -25oC). Average summer temperature is 61oF (16°C).

  5.3.

Vegetation

The vegetation consists of typical Canadian Shield boreal forest. Poplar, balsam, spruce, and pine are the main tree species. Rock outcrop exposure is abundant in most areas, although there is a thin cover of organics and lichen growth that can restrict detailed observation.

  5.4.

Physiography

Average relief in the Project area is approximately 130 feet to 200 feet (40m to 60m), with elongated outcrop ridges separated by low lying ground with swamps, rivers and lakes. Ground elevation of the surface facilities is roughly 840 feet and the tailings pond lies at roughly 905 feet.

  5.5.

Local Resources and Infrastructure

Bissett is an established mining community, located adjacent to the mine, with a fluctuating population of approximately 340 people. The township was established to service the emerging mines that developed after 1911, but has remained home to permanent residents during periods of mine closure and now provides a healthy recreational sport base as well as servicing the Project.

Mining supplies, equipment, services and a skilled mining and mineral exploration workforce are readily available in southern Manitoba and across the border to the established mining communities in northeast Ontario. The Project has a long history of mining, which helps to attract employees and contractors from throughout the area.

Tailings Storage

The Tailings Management Area (TMA) is located approximately 1-mile (1.6 km) north of the process plant in an area naturally defined by bedrock ridges around the perimeter of a previously flat boggy area. The original ground surface of the bog was near elevation 889 feet above sea level (asl) (271 m asl) (geodetic) with bedrock ridges on the south and west sides up to 920 feet above sea level (asl) (280 m asl) and bounded to the north by bedrock up to elevation 985 feet asl (300 m asl).

Practical Mining LLC May 8, 2018



Page 56 Accessibility, Climate, Vegetation, Physiography, Havilah Mining
  Local Resources and Infrastructure Corporation

Since the development of the TMA, tailings have been pumped from the process plant to the TMA via an approximate 1-mile (1.6 km) pipeline. It is understood that during mine operation, the tailings are transported as slurry, with 34% (approx.) solids by weight. The TMA currently consists of eight dykes with a number of the embankments separated by bedrock outcroppings such that they follow an A/B nomenclature. The embankments have been designed and constructed in various stages and phases from 1997 onwards to the most recent raises and improvements completed from 2012 to 2014. The current configuration of the TMA consists of a tailings pond and polishing pond, separated by dyke 7. The west half (approx.) of the tailings pond has reached its capacity, with tailings placed up to the crest of dykes 1, 2, 8, and a portion of dyke 3, while the east half of the tailings pond contains tailings submerged beneath water ranging in depth from less than 3 feet (1m) to several feet (meters). No spillway or low-level outlet structures are present in the TMA. It is understood that the TMA has been designed to safely retain water from the mill discharge, runoff, and storm events.

In order to increase the capacity to retain tailings, the former Operator began development of a new area termed the East Tailings Management Area (ETMA). The ETMA is located directly east of the TMA and currently consists of dyke 9 along its south perimeter, with dyke 6 of the TMA forming the containment along the west side. The natural contours to the north and east provide containment of the remainder of the ETMA.

Dyke 9 has an overall length of nearly 5,000 feet (1,500 m) and at its current constructed elevation, has a height of 10 feet to 13 feet (3m to 4 m). No spillway or low-level outlet structures are present in the ETMA. It is understood that the TMA has been designed to safely retain water from the process plant discharge, runoff, and storm events.

A dam safety review was conducted by Stantec Consulting Ltd. geotechnical engineers in 2015.

  5.5.16.

Stockpiles

The True North site has an existing waste rock stockpile which currently contains approximately 200,000 tons (180,000 tonnes) on an area of 4.6 acres (1.9 ha). This waste material is utilized to construct the tailings containment berms.

The site is permitted to stockpile up to 10,000 tons (9,000 tonnes) of ore permanently.

History


  6.1.

Events Prior to 1989

Gold was originally discovered at the shore of Rice Lake in 1911. The first attempt at underground development was undertaken by a syndicate in 1927, when No.1 exploration shaft was sunk to 164 feet (50 m) and No.2 Shaft was sunk to 300 feet (91 m). Approximately 2,000 feet (610 m) of lateral development was completed in 1927, but results failed to meet expectations. Nevertheless, during 1928 the syndicate proceeded to deepen the No.2 Shaft to 600 feet (183 m) and the No. 1 Vein was discovered on that level. However, it was not until 1929, with discovery of the No. 9 Vein on the 725-foot (221 m) level, that the deposits became economically viable.

Sufficiently encouraging underground results were obtained by 1931, and the newly formed San Antonio Gold Mines Ltd. (“San Antonio”) commenced construction of a process plant and power line. Production began in May 1932 at a rate of 150 tons (136 tonnes) per day, increasing to 350 tons (318 tonnes) per day in 1935, and subsequently increased to 550 tons (500 tonnes) per day by 1948. Access to the mine was primarily through the No.1 Shaft (now called the A-Shaft) and three internal winzes; 3A, 3B, and 3C (now called B-Shaft, C-Shaft, and D-Shaft).

Underground development was carried out by driving footwall drifts on each level. Flat exploration drill-holes on 50-foot (15 m) centers were used to establish the location of veins on the level prior to establishing drifts along the full length of ore zones. Shrinkage mining was used with a minimum mining width of 4 feet (1.2 m).

The 550-ton (500-tonne) per day process plant consisted of a crushing plant adjacent to the collar of No.1 Shaft with a conveyor to the process plant building. After grinding, concentrating, and blanket tables, an amalgam table recovered approximately 12% of the total gold. Then the material from the gravity circuit passed through a Merrill Crowe cyanide plant to recover the balance of the gold.

The No.1 Shaft surface hoist was destroyed by fire in July 1968 and production ceased. Historic production at Rice Lake Mine through 1968 is summarized in Table 6-1. San Antonio declared bankruptcy and the assets were acquired by New Forty-Four Mines (“New Forty-Four”). In 1980, the process plant was destroyed by fire.

In 1980, Brinco Mining Limited (“Brinco”) entered into a Joint Venture with New Forty-Four. Brinco undertook a program of underground exploration drilling during the period 1980 through 1983 and approximately 100,000 ore tons (91,000 tonnes) were mined and trucked to Hudson Bay Mining & Smelting Co Ltd. in Flin Flon, Manitoba, for processing. Brinco earned a 100% interest in the project, however, after 1983 did no significant work.

In 1987, a subsidiary of Inco Ltd. (“Inco”) entered into an agreement with Brinco and completed over 20,000 feet. (6,096m) of drilling. Inco opted out of the venture in 1988.

Events 1989 Through 2001

In 1989, Rea Gold Corp. (“Rea Gold”) acquired the Property from Brinco. Wright Engineers and Dolmage Campbell completed a due diligence study for Rea Gold prior to their acquisition of the Project in 1989. A Pre-Feasibility study by Kilborn Engineering Ltd. (Kilborn) in 1993 recommended that the resource base be increased prior to a production decision.

In 1994, Rea Gold undertook a $3.1 million underground rehabilitation and exploration program to gain access to the lower levels of the mine and delineate additional Mineral Resources.

A Feasibility Study was completed by Rea Gold and Simmons Engineering Inc. in 1995, and construction and development of a 1,000 ton (907 tonne) per day mining operation was initiated. Rea Gold established a new mine access system that significantly streamlined the mining operation. Previously, the mine was accessed by A-Shaft and three internal winzes (B-Shaft, C-Shaft, and D-Shaft). Ore from the D-Shaft area had to be trammed and hoisted via four shafts in order to transport it to surface. Rea Gold deepened the principal A-Shaft to link the surface directly with the upper level of the D-Shaft area, thereby eliminating two cycles of tramming and hoisting.

By 1997, Rea Gold had established a modern 1,000 ton (907 tonne) per day gold mining and processing facility at a total cost of approximately $90 million. Prior to the start of production, Rea Gold was placed into receivership and the receiver put the assets up for sale. Harmony Gold (Canada) Inc. (“Harmony”) was the successful bidder and took over the project in 1998.

After acquiring the assets from the receiver, Harmony invested approximately $30 million to build a ramp system in the lower part of the D-Shaft area, in order to establish a long hole mining operation. Harmony operated the mine for three years, and subsequently put the project on care and maintenance in August 2001. Compared to the previously employed shrinkage mining operation, the Harmony operation produced fewer ounces of gold from more tons processed per day and failed to achieve the corporate objectives set by Harmony’s parent company, Harmony Gold Mines Limited of South Africa. Historic production at Rice Lake Mine from 1980 through 2001 is summarized in Table 6-2.

Wildcat and San Gold 2001 - 2015

In January 2002, Harmony entered into an option agreement with Wildcat Exploration Ltd. of Winnipeg, Manitoba (“Wildcat”). Wildcat’s objective was to re-establish the mine as a smaller scale shrinkage stope operation delivering ore to a surface stock pile to feed the 1,250-ton (1,136 tonne) process plant which operated on a two week-on two week-off cycle.

In April 2002, A. C. A. Howe International (“Howe”) (Titaro et al 2002) completed a report on the Harmony assets on behalf of Wildcat. The report included an audit of the mineral resources and mineral reserves, a review of the operating and capital costs, and preparation of a financial evaluation of the economic feasibility of reopening the mine. Howe concluded that a viable shrinkage mining operation could be operated at a mining rate of 550 tons (500 tonnes) per day was feasible. Ore was delivered to a surface stockpile to feed the 1,250 ton (1,136 tonne) per day process plant operating on a two-week on, two-week off cycle. Gold at that time was US$300/oz.

Practical Mining LLC May 8, 2018



Havilah Mining Technical Report for the True North Mine, Bissett, Page 61
Corporation Manitoba, Canada  

Howe further concluded that based on well-founded historical estimation practices at the Rice Lake Mine (as it was then called), that as of April 2001, the mine, had a historical Measured and Indicated Mineral Resource of 1,267,000 tons (1,149,000 tonnes) grading 0.26 opt Au (8.9 g/t Au) plus Inferred Mineral Resource of 735,000 tons (668,000 tonnes) grading 0.31 opt Au (10.6 g/t Au). All of the above mentioned Mineral Resources were situated above the 4,630 Level (5,370 feet or 1,637 m below the collar of A-Shaft) in the C and D-Shaft areas of the Rice Lake Mine.

Within the Measured and Indicated Mineral Resources, Howe concluded that the Rice Lake Mine had Proven and Probable Mineral Reserves of 901,800 tons (820,000 tonnes) with an average grade of 0.27 opt Au (9.3 g/t Au). In determining this reserve, Howe used dilution, cutting, and cut-off practices which were based on over 38 years of mining experience at the Rice Lake Mine (now True North Gold Mine). All of these mineral reserves had existing development drifts and were accessible on levels within the C-Shaft and D-Shaft areas.

The Qualified Persons from either PM and P&E have not done sufficient work to classify the historical estimates as a current Mineral Resource or Mineral Reserve, and PM, and P&E are not treating these historical estimates as current Mineral Resources or Mineral Reserves. The historical estimates cannot be fully verified. These values cannot and should not be relied upon and are only referred to herein as an indication of previously defined gold mineralization. The relevance of the historical estimates is not known. Key assumptions, parameters and methods used to estimate these Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves are not known. The historical Mineral Resource and Mineral Reserve estimates described in this Technical Report section have been superseded by the Mineral Resource estimates described in Section 14 of this Technical Report.

Despite this work by Howe, Wildcat was unable to complete the acquisition of the Rice Lake Mine.

On March 5, 2004, San Gold Resources Corporation (“Old San Gold”) and Gold City Industries Ltd. (“Gold City”), entered into a joint venture agreement to acquire 100% of the issued and outstanding shares of Harmony through a newly formed corporation, Rice Lake Joint Venture Inc. (“RLJV”). RLJV was owned and controlled jointly by Gold City (50%) and Old San Gold (50%). Effective March 17, 2004, RLJV acquired the shares of Rice Lake Gold Corporation (formerly Harmony Gold Corporation (Canada) Inc.) from Harmony Gold Mining Company Limited of South Africa. The purchase price was $7,757,961, including $3,632,961 in cash and $4,125,000 in shares and warrants of Gold City and Old San Gold. On June 30, 2005 Old San Gold and Gold City amalgamated to form a new corporation called San Gold Corporation.

The exploration drilling completed between the period from 2005 to 2013, (is summarized below and more fully described in Section 10 of this Technical Report). As part of San Gold’s exploration program, a Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR) survey was flown over the Rice Lake greenstone belt in 2009. From this a second mining trend called the Shoreline Basalt unit, which hosts the Hinge and 007 Zones, was recognized

A ramp to explore and develop the new, separate SG1 deposit commenced in the winter of 2005. Production from that deposit continued until mid-2008 when workings had reached a depth of 640 feet (195m) below surface. Work was suspended in 2008 due to diminishing economics and the mobile equipment was needed elsewhere to develop the recently discovered Hinge Zone.

A new surface ramp to explore and develop the Hinge Zone commenced in 2008 and reached the deposit in March 2009. Production started almost immediately as definition drilling continued.

In early 2010, a new internal ramp was started from a vertical depth of 800 feet (244m) in the Hinge Zone workings to access the 007 deposit. The ramp reached the 007 deposit in July 2010, and production started while definition drilling continued.

A second surface ramp was started near the old Wingold shaft in the second half of 2010. This ramp was to provide top access to the 007 deposit and provide access to develop the Cohiba deposit. The ramp reached the Cohiba mineralization at a vertical depth of 108 feet (33m) below surface.

Under the San Gold operations, ore was mined along three active underground mining trends. The Rice Lake Mine (as the Project was previously named), formed the core of mining operations. Access is provided by A-Shaft which extends 4,060 feet (1,249 m) below surface and extensive workings to access these deposits situated within the mineralized host system.

The second mining trend, the Shoreline Basalt mining unit, focused on the 007 deposit, began commercial production in 2010. The 007 mine portal is located 2,000 feet (600 m) from the process plant and provided the main access to San Gold’s operations along the Shoreline Basalt mining unit and the Hinge Zone. The Hinge zone is hosted in intermediate rocks, is the third mining trend host and its portal also provides access to the 007 deposit.

After investing approximately C$375 million in capital since 2007, including the extensive underground development and modernizing the process plant, San Gold ceased mining in May 2015, and placed the operation on care and maintenance. San Gold declared bankruptcy and announced sale of all of its assets to secured creditors in June 2015. Historic Production from the Rice Lake Mine from 2007 through 2015 is summarized in Table 6-3.

Klondex Mines Ltd. 2016 - 2017

In early 2016, Klondex Mines Ltd. (KDX) announced acquisition of 100% of the Rice Lake Mine, process plant complex and a 400 km2 exploration land package from the creditors of San Gold Corporation. In the first half of 2016, KDX commenced refurbishment of the underground infrastructure and trial mining of readily accessible ore.

Following sampling of the historic tailings storage facility, KDX also commenced a tailings reprocessing project. Reprocessing of the tailings was carried out concurrently with processing of underground ore when weather allowed. Processing of stockpiled ROM ore commenced in fourth quarter 2016.

A name change to True North Gold Mine was announced in May 2016. In September 2016, KDX announced the formal decision to resume production at True North. Underground Mine production and tailings reprocessing activity for 2016 and 2017 is shown in Table 6-4 and Table 6-5.

In May 2017 KDX released a NI 43-101 Technical Report updating Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves at the True North Mine (Odell et al 2017). These Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves are presented in Table 6-6 through Table 6-8. Cut-off grades of 0.090 Au opt and 0.015 Au opt were used to estimate in-situ and tailings Mineral Resources respectively. For Mineral Reserves, cut-off grades of 0.15 Au opt and 0.016 Au opt were used for in-situ and tailings Mineral Reserves respectively. These estimates were based on gold prices of US$1,200 and US$1,400 per ounce for Mineral Reserves and Mineral Resources respectively. These Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves are historic in nature. The authors and KC do not consider them to be current Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves. These Mineral Resources have been superseded by those stated elsewhere in this report. Sufficient work has not been done to estimate Mineral Reserves as of the effective date of this Technical Report.

Geological Setting and Mineralization


  7.1.

Regional Geology

True North is underlain by the Archean Rice Lake greenstone belt located at the west end of the Uchi Volcanic-Plutonic Subprovince of the Superior Province (Figure 7-1 and Figure 7-2). The Rice Lake greenstone belt is bound to the north and south by the Wanipigow Shear Zone and the Manigotagan Shear Zone, respectively.

The Wanipigow Shear Zone is marked at True North by regional-scale fault structures and elsewhere by increasing metamorphic grade into the metamorphic-plutonic terrain of the Wanipigow (Manitoba) Subprovinces and Berens River (Ontario). The Wanipigow River Plutonic Complex, which forms the northern boundary of the Rice Lake greenstone belt, is composed mainly of hornblende and biotite-bearing quartz diorite, granodiorite and locally quartz monzonite intrusions and gneisses. Several large gabbro intrusions are also present.

The Manigotagan Shear Zone is marked by a regionally continuous zone of faults (Manigotagan-Lake St. Joseph Fault) which separates the volcanic-plutonic terrain of the Uchi Subprovince from the English River (Ontario) - Manigotagan (Manitoba) gneissic belts. The Manigotagan gneissic belt, which occurs immediately south of the Rice Lake greenstone belt, consists of a lithologic gradation from low-grade metavolcanic and metasedimentary rocks, through paragneiss and migmatite, to quartz diorite and granodiorite gneiss.

The rocks in the True North area were affected by at least three and possibly four major periods of deformation (Anderson, 2008). The resulting fold pattern is complex with overturned, doubly-plunging folds in the Rice Lake Group rocks. The late Archean San Antonio Formation sedimentary rocks may have been affected by only the last major period of deformation.

Many major regional fault structures are present in the True North area. The most prominent are the major structures that trend generally east-west. Movement along these structures formed conjugate shear zones which splay off to the north and south. Thrust faulting likely occurred in the early stages of the deformation, but these structures are difficult to identify.

All the major gold occurrences in the Project area occur as quartz veins or quartz vein systems formed during structural deformation of the host rocks. Significant gold production has occurred from the Uchi Subprovince in the Rice Lake area to the west in Manitoba and in the Red Lake, Birch-Uchi Lake and Pickle-Dona Lake areas to the east in Ontario (Figure 7-2).

  7.2.

Local Geology

All of the gold mineralized zones at True North are hosted in rocks of the Bidou Lake Assemblage (Figure 7-3). The Bidou Lake Assemblage forms a north-facing stratigraphic sequence of tholeiitic basalt to intermediate volcanic flows, dacite crystal tuffs and breccias overlain by well stratified felsic epiclastic rock interpreted to be of pyroclastic and sedimentary origin. The stratigraphic sequence is intruded by tholeiitic gabbro sills and dykes and felsic porphyry dykes.

The best known gabbro sill is the San Antonio Unit, which is host rock for much of the gold mineralization at the True North deposit. The Bidou Lake Assemblage is unconformably overlain by feldspathic sandstone of the San Antonio Assemblage.

In the Project area, gold mineralization is controlled by quartz-carbonate veins and vein systems in brittle- ductile structures with related hydrothermal alteration halos within or at the margin of particular host rock units (Figure 7-4).

  7.2.1.

Host Rock Units

The gold mineralized veins show a high degree of structural control and are best developed in competent host rock units. Since 2009, three main host units have produced the most gold ore at True North (Figure 7-3):

1) The SAM, a gabbro sill from which gold has been mined for more than 80 years from the True North deposit;

2) The Shoreline Basalt unit, which hosts the 007, L10 and SG zones; and

3) The Intermediate Volcanic unit, which hosts the Hinge, L13, L08 and Cohiba Zones.

The SAM unit is a layered tholeiitic gabbro sill which intrudes the Bidou Lake Assemblage and dips moderately to the north. The SAM has been interpreted to be a subvolcanic feeder for the overlying mafic volcanic rocks. SAM hosted all the gold mineralization mined prior to 2004 in the True North Mine and the Cartwright zone, for a total of 1.5 million oz.

The Shoreline Basalt is a steeply dipping mafic volcanic rock unit that is geologically similar and subparallel to the SAM unit, and hosts the 007, L10 and possibly the SG gold zones (Figure 7-4).

The Intermediate Volcanic Unit occurs to the north of the Shoreline Basalt and hosts the Hinge and Cohiba Zones.

In addition to these three rock units, an unnamed intermediate to mafic volcanic unit situated in the footwall to the Shoreline Basalt unit hosts the 710 Zone which was discovered in 2013.

  7.2.2.

Structure

The structures that control the gold mineralization are brittle-ductile shear zones which strike from parallel to transverse to the host rock units and dip steeply northwest or northeast. The shear zones are marked by intensely foliated and lineated interlayered sericite and chlorite schists, which range from <100m to 6 km long and from 1m to >10m thick (Figure 7-5A).

Structures trending east-northeast have kinematic features indicative of sinistral-reverse movement, whereas those trending northwest have kinematic features indicative of dextral-normal movement.

The sinistral and dextral structures are interpreted to have been generated during a single protracted areal deformation event – D3 (Anderson, 2011; SRK, 2013). Stretching lineation and fold plunges tend to be orthogonal to movement on the host shear zone (SRK, 2013). The structures contain a main, banded (laminated) quartz vein and subsidiary veins in the schist on either side (Figure 7-5B). The main vein can be situated anywhere in the structure.

  7.2.3.

Veins

According to Anderson (2008), shear-hosted veins include massive, laminated and brecciated varieties, commonly within the same vein, and typically pinch and swell along strike and down-dip. Thicker veins are associated with inflection points in the host shear zones, which suggests hydrothermal infill of dilational jogs.

Most of the shear zones are associated with fringing arrays of kinematically linked extension and oblique-extension quartz veins, which locally intensify into complex peripheral stockwork-breccia systems. Considered with the geometry of the vein arrays, the vein textures indicate synkinematic emplacement under brittle-ductile conditions. Most deposits are arrays of sub-horizontal extension veins, which suggests emplacement accompanied by transiently supralithostatic fluid pressures.

In the True North deposit, the gold-bearing quartz veins occur mainly as either “16-type” shear zone veins or “38-type” tensional fracture stockwork veins or, where they intersect, as a combination of the two vein types. The 16-type appear to be fault fill veins with generally higher grades and more continuity, which are laminated with pressure solution seams (stylolites) and trend north-northeast. Examples of both vein types are shown in Figure 7-5 and Figure 7-6.

The stylolites consist of intergrown pyrite-chlorite-tourmaline-muscovite. Compared to the 16-type, the 38-type are stockwork breccia veins that are wider and arranged in an en-echelon pattern along the strike and down the dip of the host gabbro unit, but gold mineralization is more irregular and grades difficult to predict. In some deposits, for example SG-1 and SG-3, the gold mineralized veins were intensely transposed during ductile deformation (Anderson, 2008), and presumably later in the D3 deposit.

Havilah Mining Technical Report for the True North Mine, Bissett, Page 73
Corporation Manitoba, Canada  

In addition to quartz, the veins contain subordinate carbonate, minor albite, chlorite and sericite, and rare tourmaline and fuchsite (a.k.a. mariposite). The carbonate is dolomite-ankerite in composition (Ross & Rhys, 2010). Sulfide minerals consist of pyrite with minor chalcopyrite and rare sphalerite, galena and gold-silver telluride minerals. Pyrite generally comprises <5% of individual veins and occurs as scattered grains and irregular blebs within and along vein margins, and is concentrated along planar slip surfaces or stylolites.

Gold typically occurs as free grains associated with or as inclusions in pyrite. Gold grades tend to be highly erratic within individual quartz veins. The gold ores have high Au/Ag ratios of >5:1 and low concentrations of copper, lead, zinc, arsenic, bismuth, boron, antimony and tungsten, as is typical for Archean lode-gold deposits.

  7.2.4.

Alteration

Wall rock alteration spatially associated with the quartz veins varies from minor to intense and is generally zoned outward from proximal albite + ankerite + sericite + quartz +pyrite through medial chlorite + ankerite ± sericite to distal chlorite + calcite (Anderson, 2008). These alteration mineral assemblages overprint the regional greenschist facies metamorphic mineral assemblage (Ames et al., 1991). Many veins show evidence of wall rock sulphidization in the form of coarse euhedral pyrite grains.

In the True North deposit, thick zones of altered and sulphidized wall rock with minor vein quartz contain ore grade gold. Complex and antithetic distribution patterns of phengitic white mica and muscovite-paragonite are reported by SRK (2013), and appear to be controlled by second order faults and near-mine shear zones. Figure 7-7 shows typical shear orientations and general alteration assemblages.

The True North and SG-1 deposits show close spatial relationship with laterally continuous zones of ankerite-sericite phyllite and phyllonite, which represent reliable guides to ore. Deformation structures in the phyllonite preserve evidence of a complex deformation history, increments of which pre-date and post-date vein formation.

Despite vertical extents of up to >2 km, the True North deposit shows only minor variation in vein mineralogy, texture and structure.

Deposit Types

The association of gold at True North with quartz-carbonate veins in brittle-ductile shear zones and laterally extensive hydrothermal alteration zones indicates that the deposits represent epigenetic mesothermal lode gold-type (Poulsen et al., 2000) or orogenic-type gold mineralization (Groves et al., 1998).

Such gold deposits form from metal-bearing fluids generated during accretionary processes and prograde regional metamorphism at depth in greenstone belt terrains. In this model (Figure 8-1), the resulting fluids migrate and are channeled upward along transcrustal fault systems to subsidiary shear and fracture structures developed in the middle to upper crust. Gold is deposited in quartz carbonate veins as a result of pressure-temperature, pH, and other physiochemical changes, phase separation and fluid-rock reactions. The reactions commonly involve sulphidization of precursor oxide, carbonate and silicate minerals and mineral assemblages.

Exploration

KC has yet to commence near mine and regional exploration work at True North. Limited underground diamond drilling has been completed for ore definition. Most of the exploration work at the Project was completed previously during the San Gold ownership.

Based on the orogenic gold model (Figure 8-1), exploration targets at True North are areas or zones selected based on the criteria listed below:

  Presence of gold;
  Favorable structure (shear zones and breccia zones);
  Significant quartz vein material;
  Hydrothermal alteration minerals and assemblages;
  Proximity to unconformities and disconformities; and
  Proximity to oxidation/reduction boundaries of regional scale.

On surface, favorable structures are identified utilizing the 2009 LiDAR survey and the 2011 airborne magnetometer survey. The LiDAR survey products include a high-resolution digital elevation model which has been used to map geological contacts, bedding planes, faults, shears, lineations and joints. Follow-up ground geological mapping is employed to identify fabrics, offsets and abrupt changes in rock types that indicate structure.

Mineral prospecting is used to identify indicative mineral alteration, particularly sericite and carbonate minerals and mineral assemblages. Many surface targets meeting some or all of the relevant criteria remain to be tested by drilling.

Underground exploration has been guided by drilling mineralized structures along strike and up-dip and down-dip from mine workings, and development, particularly within the SAM unit, Shoreline Basalt unit, Intermediate Volcanic Unit, and the 710host mafic unit. At least seven underground targets have been identified by KDX for exploration drilling.

Drilling and Sampling Methodology

Drilling at True North has been completed both on surface and underground. The majority of the drilling was done previously by San Gold. KDX commenced drilling underground and sampling the historic tailings in the spring of 2016.

  10.1.

Diamond Core Drilling

Underground drill-holes were planned by the Geology Department using three- dimensional A-mine software applying length, dip, and anticipated deviation. The front and back sights are setup by the survey department and on completion of the hole, the collar location is surveyed.

Downhole survey measurements are taken at 70 feet (20 m) from the collar, and then every 100 feet (30m) for underground drill-holes and 200 feet (60 m) for surface drill-holes. For infill drilling, the typical hole spacing is 50 feet (15 m).

Underground air diamond drills produce AQ size core and underground electric diamond drills produce BQTK and NQ size core. Surface diamond drills produce NQ size core, except for the first 500 feet (150 m) of some of the deeper holes, for which HQ size core is produced to minimize Drill-hole deviation.

Underground exploration and definition drilling completed by previous owners along the SAM unit was for near and mid-term production planning purposes. Definition drilling also continued at the 007 and L10 zones within the Shoreline Basalt unit and at the L13 and Hinge Zones in order to advance Mineral Resources from Inferred to Measured and Indicated categories and to increase the Mineral Reserve.

In 2011, the L08 zone was discovered to the northwest of the Hinge Zone. The L08 zone was traced vertically in drilling from 1,000 feet to 2,300 feet below surface and is in close proximity to the Hinge Zone and True North workings at the 16 Level. In 2013, the 710 Zone was discovered as part of underground drilling of an unnamed intermediate mafic volcanic unit between the SAM unit to the south and the Shoreline Basalt unit to the north. Underground drilling of the 710 Zone and other zones continued in 2014 through the spring of 2015.

KDX commenced underground diamond drilling which, in early 2016, was focused on the 710 Zone. By January 5, 2017 approximately 5,760 underground exploration holes were drilled collectively by San Gold and KDX, for an approximate total of 2,516,000 feet (767,200 m).

Surface diamond drilling has occurred at the Project since 1912, which includes more than 2,190 holes and 2,605,000 feet (794,000 m) Table 10-1). San Gold’s largest surface drilling exploration program was in 2011-2012 and included drilling approximately 1,024,000 feet (336,000 m) in 602 surface holes. The exploration drill program focused on the SAM unit, Shoreline Basalt unit, and Intermediate Volcanic Rock unit.

Channel Chip Sampling

The face sampling procedure described below is used for grade control at the Project and is derived from a 2016 document provided by KDX. The sampling procedure consists of the following steps:

Ensure that the face to be sampled is secure and safe prior to chipping;
   
Wash the face thoroughly to remove loose material and expose rock type boundaries;
   
Delineate sample intervals using a measuring stick and paint. The sample line should be perpendicular to the orebody dip and run from left to right;

Sample widths should not exceed 3 feet (1 m) in waste and 2 feet (0.6 m) in ore, with a minimum sample width of 0.5 foot (0.15 m);
   
Sample intervals should not cross lithologic boundaries; and
   
 • Cumulative sample intervals should encompass the entire width of the face.

Samples are collected by chipping rock from the interval utilizing a sharp rock hammer pick. Rock chips are placed in a clean plastic 12-inch by 12-inch sample bag. The bag is filled to an approximate ¼ capacity. Sample information is recorded on a sample tag and the numbered end placed in the corresponding sample bag.

On a chip sample face sheet, a scaled picture is drawn of the face and the sampled intervals. In addition, the date, sampler, heading, dimension, orientation, position relative to the nearest survey station, samples, sampled intervals, and materials (host rock or vein) are all recorded.

The channel chip sample information is entered into the database and stored as pseudo drill-holes with collar, survey and assay values.

Historic Tailings Pond Drilling/Sampling

Prior to committing to a trial of the re-processing of the historic tailings, an extensive sampling program was undertaken to determine the distribution of recoverable gold within the tailings mass. In the spring and summer of 2016, KDX drilled 138 holes and hand dug 214 holes on the historic tailings for a total of 352 holes with a total footage of 3,714 feet (1,132 m) (Table 10-2). The holes range in depth from <5 feet at the margins up to 35 feet in the center.

On the historic tailings, two phases of drilling have been completed using a 200-foot by 100-foot grid. Phase 1 drilling was completed using a hollow stem auger. The hollow stem auger sampling method employed by San Gold is not well documented. Brief descriptions indicate that the holes were drilled and sampled in 5-foot (1.5 m) increments through a hollow stem auger.

Phase 2 drilling was performed with a percussion probe (Geo Probe). Holes were planned, located, and staked with a differential global positioning system (GPS), and drilled with a dual tube system. An outer tube is pushed down inside the drill rod by percussion, and then an inner tube with a sampling polyvinyl chloride (PVC) cylinder is pushed down inside of the tube. A continuous 5¬foot (1.5 m) sample is collected within the PVC cylinder. The inner PVC cylinder and the sample are retrieved through the outer tube, which remains in place. When drilling resumes, the drill pushes down an additional 5-foot (1.5 m) section of outer tube, and the processes is repeated in continuous 5-foot (1.5 m) intervals until the total depth of the hole is reached.

In addition to the drilling, samples were also collected from hand dug holes. Holes were planned on a grid spacing of 50-foot by 50-foot (15 m by 15m) and staked and located with a differential GPS. The holes were dug to the diameter of the shovel blade and to a depth at which the hole is stable. The geologist logs lithologic units that are >0.5 -foot (0.15 m) in thickness, based on grain size (sand, clay, or mixed). Hand dug hole collars are imported into the database as pseudo drill-holes with an azimuth of 0 degrees and dip of -90 degrees.

Sample Preparation, Analysis, and Security

This section of the report summarizes the sampling methods, sample preparation, assay analysis, and security procedures for surface and underground drill core, underground face sampling, and historic tailings sampling.

For core and face sampling, the procedures developed and documented by the previous operators San Gold and KDX are discussed herein. Any changes made by KDX are noted within this Technical Report. The procedures for tailings sampling were developed entirely by KDX.

  11.1.

Core Sampling Methods

Surface and underground drilling at the Project is completed by contractors. Diamond drill core is placed in labelled wooden trays and depth marker blocks are inserted by drilling contractor personnel prior to the removal of the core from the drill site by the project geologist. Upon arrival at the secure core logging facility, the core boxes are sequentially placed in a core rack and the spatial information on each box of core is checked for accuracy and consistency. If necessary, remedial action is undertaken to correct deficiencies and errors in the spatial information prior to entry into the database. The drill core is digitally photographed prior to logging and marked for sampling.

Exploration geologists log the core and record observations in a digital drill log database prior to sample selection for assay analyses (Figure 11-1). Core intervals are selected for sampling based on the following: presence of mineralization, favorable structure, and quartz veining. They are then marked and measured for sampling and identified with one part of a three-part assay tag placed at the end of the sample interval.

Samples are taken by sawing the core perpendicular to the core axis, with one-half of the core returned to the core box and the other half placed in a clean plastic bag along with part two of the three-part assay tag. Information on the third part of the assay tag is entered into the database and the drill log, at which time accuracy and consistency are checked again and corrected for discrepancies.

San Gold submitted core samples for assay analysis to TSL Laboratories Inc. in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan. Check assays were performed at Accurassay Laboratories Ltd. in Thunder Bay, Ontario. Both labs are independent of the True North Project.

Underground Core Sampling Methods

Drill programs planned by the geology department are typically underground definition drilling of known zones rather than exploration. The core sampling method differs from that for the surface exploration holes.

The interval to be sampled is determined and marked by the geologist logging the core (Figure 11-1). Most samples, particularly those from known zones, range between 0.5 -foot (0.15 m) and 4.0 -foot (1.2 m) in length. Every sample is bracketed by a minimum of 1.0 -foot (300 mm) for small veins and structures and 6-feet (1.8 m) in each of the footwall and hanging wall of known zones.

The entire core sample is placed in a bag by the geologist and identified with an assay tag, which has a copy that remains in the sample book, and the sample number is recorded in the database. One hole from each set up is cut and kept. If core is to be cut, the sampling procedure is the same as the surface exploration procedure. Approximately 10-feet (3.05 m) of core above and below the sampled portion is kept to ensure that sufficient material remains if a re-bracket is required. The remainder of the core is stored at the Project.

Underground core samples are submitted to TSL Laboratories Inc. (TSL) in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan. The check assay laboratory was ALS Global (ALS) in Vancouver, British Columbia. San Gold also submitted core samples to the Project’s Assay Lab, in which case check assays were performed by TSL. KC submitted underground core samples to TSL. Their check assay lab was ALS. Both labs are independent of KC.

In general, all sections with quartz veining and/or alteration are sampled. Sample lengths in mineralized core, characterized by silicification, carbonate alteration, sulfide minerals, quartz veins, and visible gold, are variable and based on geological considerations.

Blind standards are routinely inserted every 25 samples into the sample sequence prior to delivery to the assay laboratory. Blanks are routinely inserted every 50 samples and after all noted visible gold.

Sealed sample bags are placed in rice bags with security seals and are transported to the assay laboratory in a timely manner. Upon arrival at the assay lab, samples are received by laboratory personnel and transferred to the laboratory’s chain of custody procedures and protocols. KDX kept a chain of custody as well which is updated throughout the process.

  11.2.

Face Sampling Methods

The face sample preparation methodology is outlined below:

Channel chip samples are bagged on-site at the face as described in Section 10.2;
   
The samples are delivered to the Project’s assay lab for analysis; and
 
The internal lab inserts their own QA/QC into the chip sample stream.

  11.3.

Tailings Sampling Methods

The tailings samples and QA/QC samples are placed in rice bags and sealed with security tags and zap-straps. Each sample bag has a sample ID and a bag number written on it. There is one sample shipment ID per hole. Each rice bag weighs approximately 30 pounds.

Security tags are recorded in an Excel tracking spreadsheet separate from the Chain of Custody. Phase 1 samples were sent to Acme Analytical Labs Ltd (“Acme”) in Vancouver, British Columbia for assay. Phase 2 samples went to TSL.

The assay lab breaks open, dries and screens the sample at 80 mesh. Approximately 1,000 grams are riffle split, pulverized to minus 200 mesh. Thirty grams are taken for fire assay. The reject and pulp portions are returned to the Project and stored in the QA/QC compound at the SG1 Zone compressor building or retained at TSL.

Preparation of the hand dug hole samples from the tailings pond is as follows. The samples are delivered to the Project’s Assay Lab where the lab inserts their own QA/QC into the tailings sample stream. The samples then are dried and subsequently rolled with a steel rolling pin to break down any lumps. The samples are then split to size in a Jones riffle. After reducing the size of the sample to between 200 and 250 grams, they are pulverized for 30 seconds in a ring pulverizer, rolled and placed in a pulp bag for assaying. Forty grams are taken for fusion.

Sample Preparation, Analysis and Security


  11.5.1.

Core Sample Preparation and Analysis

The primary independent assay laboratory used by San Gold and KC is TSL. When pulps and rejects are returned by TSL, selected samples are sent by the KC to ALS to cross check the TSL assay results. TSL and ALS are each ISO/IEC 17025 certified laboratories and have long histories within the Canadian mining industry. Each laboratory uses similar sample preparation, analytical methods, and QA/QC procedures.

On receipt by TSL, samples are sorted and verified according to the sample submittal form shipped with the samples by the KC. Security ties on the sample bags are checked with records sent electronically to TSL and the shipment is assigned a TSL reference number and worksheet. Sample labels are produced with the client sample number and the TSL reference number. Sample preparation procedures involve oscillating jaw crushing to 75% minus 10-mesh. A 1,000-gram sub-sample is riffle split from the minus10-mesh sample and pulverized to 95% minus 150-mesh in a ring mill pulverizer. Between each sample, the crushers, rifflers, and pans are cleaned with compressed air. Pulverizing pots and rings are brushed, hand cleaned and air blown.

Samples without visible gold are subject to normal fire assay analytical procedures. The gold concentration is determined for a homogenized 30-gram sample using a fire assay collector and atomic absorption finish. Samples are assayed in batches of 24, comprised of 20 client samples, two duplicate client samples, one TSL standard and one TSL blank.

Each sample with visible gold is subject to total metallic and fire assay procedures. The whole sample is crushed and pulverized to 95% passing 150-mesh. The plus 150-mesh fraction (including the sieve cloth) is assayed for the coarse gold content and two 30-gram samples of the minus 150 mesh are assayed. The weighted average of the three assays determines the reported assay grade for the sample.

  11.5.2.

Channel Chip Sample Preparation and Analysis

Channel chip samples are analyzed by the Project’s Assay Lab at True North. When chip samples are received in the laboratory, they are sorted and placed into numerical order and the sample tag number written on the outside of the plastic bag. Wet samples are dried. All information on the samples received is entered into the logbook.

All dry samples are put through a Rhino Crusher. The crusher reduces the size of the sample to 50% passing 10-mesh. Crushed samples are reduced in size to approximately 200 grams by splitting, utilizing the sample riffle until one side contains the 200-gram sample to be pulverized. The remaining sample (reject) is returned to the original sample bag and stored for 6 months.

Practical Mining LLC May 8, 2018



Havilah Mining Technical Report for the True North Mine, Bissett, Page 87
Corporation Manitoba, Canada  

All crushed samples are pulverized for 90 seconds in a ring pulverizer to 90% passing 150-mesh. The sample pulps are rolled to ensure that they are homogenous and then placed in pulp bags for assay.

Pulp samples are subject to normal lead fire assay analytical procedures. A 20-gram sample is placed with 60 milliliters flux in a 30-gram crucible for fusion and fire assay of gold. The Mine geologists will insert one blank sample per 12-hour batch of chip samples, and a standard is inserted at every 25th sample collected in a 12-hour period. The standards and blanks inserted by the mine geologist are then entered into an Excel based QA/QC database, similar to the core sample QA/QC database. The same deviation limits apply to the chip QA/QC samples as does the core QA/QC samples. If a standard or blank fall outside of the acceptable limits, the entire chip sample batch is re-assayed.

The past production of greater than 1.8 -million oz of gold from the True North Gold Mine supports the validity of the channel sampling and assay procedures. PM consider the assays to be accurate. The Project’s Assay Lab inserts a standard with every set of samples and the results are checked and tracked internally. The Project’s Assay Lab also runs check assays with each batch of chip samples.

  11.5.3.

Tailings Sample Preparation and Analysis

The sample cylinders are split by the driller for the geologist. The geologist wearing latex gloves photographs the sample, and then scoops it from the cylinder into a doubled sample bag using a spoon. The sample is tagged, the inner bag is rolled down and the outer bag is sealed. After each hole is completed, the geologist changes gloves and washes the spoon with distilled water.

  11.6.

Core Quality Assurance and Quality Control

A QA/QC program was implemented by San Gold and adopted by KC to monitor the contamination, precision and accuracy at the various stages of core sample analysis. KC systematically inserted sample standards, blanks and duplicates into its sampling stream.

After every 25th sample, KC inserts a QA/QC control sample alternating between a standard, a field duplicate and a blank. (Standards are every 25th sample, Blanks are every 50th sample or after any noted visual gold, Duplicates are inserted every 20 samples). When assays are received, the data are plotted to ensure that all the results are within acceptable limits and any remediation, if required, is carried out.

  11.6.1.

Sample Standards

Under KDX procedures all exploration core is subject to data verification procedures through the insertion of four blind sample standards at regular intervals in every one-hundred samples.

Standards consist of Standard Reference Material (SRM) purchased from CDN Resource Laboratory Ltd. located in British Columbia, Canada. Four different standards are employed with contents of gold ranging from low grade to high grade (Table 11-1).

Assay results for the standards are illustrated in Figure 11-2 to Figure 11-5. Results are routinely reviewed. If the results plot outside the acceptable limits for standards or blanks, the sample batch is rerun.

Core Sample Blanks and Duplicates

Sample blanks consist of un-mineralized, unaltered and un-deformed drill core from True North. Two blanks are inserted at regular intervals for every 100 samples. Additional blanks are inserted after each sample with visible gold. The blanks are employed to monitor contamination during the sample preparation step in the assay lab.

Review of assay results for 7,325 San Gold blanks indicates that 503 (6.9%) exceed the upper threshold assay value set by San Gold of 0.05 opt Au (Figure 11-6). None (0%) of the 1,036 KC blanks (Figure 11-7) exceeded the upper threshold assay value of 0.02 opt Au utilized by KC.

Recommendations and Conclusions

PM is of the opinion that the core, channel and tailings sample assay data have been adequately verified for the purposes of a mineral resource estimate. All data included in the resource estimate appear to be of adequate quality.

Recommendations are as follows:

1)      Technical Database: All Project data collected needs to be stored and archived in a permanent and reliable retrieval manner. A full-time database administrator is recommended.

2)      Quality Assurance/Quality Control: Timely follow-up for any and all QA/QC assay deviations and re-assay requests should be performed in a timely manner. The process should be automated when the database is up and running.

3)      Sample Storage and Retrieval: Half-core remaining from sample assays should be retained for reference and check assay purposes. All assay sample rejects and pulps should be stored in a safe, secure and sheltered manner and properly catalogued to ease retrieval.

Practical Mining LLC May 8, 2018



Havilah Mining Technical Report for the True North Mine, Bissett, Page 103
Corporation Manitoba, Canada  

4)      Project Assay Lab: Standard operating procedures should be updated, particularly in regard to assay data generation, storage and retrieval.

Data Verification

P&E examined the True North drill and channel sampling data sets compiled from 2009 through early 2017. Practical Mining examined newly generated data compiled through March 2018. Review of the data demonstrates suitability for use in resource estimation. In addition, P&E retrieved check samples from True North’s sample archive and independently submitted them for assay, with results similar to the True North primary samples. P&E also examined data from the True North tailings sampling program. P&E’s data verification work is detailed in the May 2017 Technical Report (Odell et al 2017).

Practical Mining requested copies of original raw data reports for five percent of the sample data generated since the effective date of the 2016 Technical Report, including assay lab certificates, surveyor reports and geology logs. Ten drill-holes and 65 channels were selected to represent the data sets spatially and temporally. Mr. Allan Kathler, True North Senior Geologist, provided copies of the data to Practical Mining. The categories of data reviewed include collar location surveys, down-hole surveys, assay results and geology.

  12.1.

Drill Data Review


  12.1.1.

Collar Location Checks

Collar location survey data match database fields for easting, northing and elevation for eight of the holes. The other two holes did not receive collar surveys due to logistical difficulties. Collars for those holes were placed by geologists based on known survey points. The authors observed the holes in relation to mine survey asbuilts and consider collar locations to be reliable.

  12.1.2.

Down Hole Survey Checks

All holes reviewed by PM were surveyed for down-hole deviation using Reflex EZ-SHOT survey instruments. A total of 70 survey shot records were reviewed, and 69 matched the database values for depth, azimuth and dip. One shot was excluded from the database due to excessive deviation in the dip, which is standard industry practice. The authors find the survey data to be reliable.

  12.1.3.

Core Assay Checks

All holes reviewed by PM were assayed by TSL Laboratories. A total of 1,728 Au assays of drill samples were checked by comparing the database to lab certificates. All values matched. The authors find the assay data to be reliable. In addition, assay results for 116 standard and blank samples which were submitted as QAQC with the drill samples were checked by comparing the lab certificates with KC’s QAQC tables. All values matched, supporting the reliability of the raw data analyzed in Section 11.

Practical Mining LLC May 8, 2018



Havilah Mining Technical Report for the True North Mine, Bissett, Page 105
Corporation Manitoba, Canada  

  12.1.4.

Geology Checks

Practical Mining viewed each of the ten drill-holes against the modeled veins to confirm that the vein model extents coincide with the drill hole sample interval, and that the estimation flag assigned to each sample interval matches the vein model name. A total of 95 sample intervals with estimation flags were reviewed, and all matched. One sample interval which intersects a vein was missing an estimation flag. Because the unflagged interval has moderate gold grade, it would not be expected to have a significant positive or negative affect on the resource estimation. The interval has been flagged for subsequent estimations. The error of omission reflects only two percent of the data, and the authors find the vein data to be suitable for use in the estimation.

  12.2.

Channel Chip Data Review


  12.2.1.

Collar Location and Channel Bearing Checks

Channels are not routinely surveyed, but are assigned reasonably close spatial locations by the geologist who collects the sample. The locations are based on mine survey asbuilts and measurements collected by the geologist. Channels are collected perpendicular to the direction of mining for a face sample, or parallel to the direction of mining for a rib sample. The authors observed the channels in relation to the mine survey asbuilt using Vulcan software, and also checked the geologist’s measurement notes to confirm accurate placement. The channels align well with the asbuilt, and the authors consider the channel location data to be reliable. While the authors observed both face and rib channels, only face channels were used in the resource estimate.

  12.2.2.

Assay Check

All channels reviewed by PM were assayed by the Project’s lab. A total of 255 Au assays of chip samples were checked by comparing the database to lab certificates. Nine mismatches were observed, representing about 4% of the data. This reflects sub-optimal handling of the channel assay data, and the authors recommend that the data manager undertake a thorough review of the channel assays. Because mine production data concur with channel assay data, and the large volume of channel samples, the authors find the channel assay data to be suitable for the current estimation.

  12.2.3.

Geology Check

Practical Mining viewed each of the 65 channels against the modeled veins to confirm that the vein model extents coincide with the channel sample interval, and that the estimation flag assigned to each sample interval matches the vein model name. A total of 175 sample intervals with estimation flags were reviewed, and all matched. The authors find the vein data to be suitable for use in the estimation.

  12.3.

Conclusions to Data Verification

The authors conclude the data is suitable for use in this resource estimation.

Mineral Processing and Metallurgical Testing

Mining and ore processing has been carried out at True North intermittently since the early 1930’s. The original process used a gravity concentration step and whole-ore cyanidation using Merrill Crowe gold precipitation. Recoveries with this original plant and process were generally 96%.

In 1980, the original process plant was destroyed by fire except for the crushing plant and fine ore bin feed conveyor. A new process plant was constructed with the same throughput as the original; however, the process was changed to incorporate gravity concentration and a bulk sulfide flotation process.

It was found that by floating the sulfides, a “throwaway tail” could be achieved. The concentrate was reground and upgraded through a cleaner circuit and filtered. The high-grade concentrate was then shipped to a local smelter. Recovery using this process was generally 93%.

In the mid-1990’s, the mine was restarted and the process plant was expanded by adding a larger 12-foot by 14-foot (3.8 m x 4.3 m) grinding mill and a cyanide leach circuit for concentrate leaching. The operation was short lived.

In 1998, the operation was restarted again and this time ran for three years at a rate of 1,000 tons (907 tonnes) per day. The process used two-stage crushing followed by grinding, concentration using a centrifugal concentrator, and a bulk sulfide flotation process. This flotation concentrate was reground and sent to a leach/CIP gold recovery plant. The carbon was eluted using a conventional pressure strip followed by electrowinning and subsequent refining. Recovery for the period was calculated as generally 92% (Table 13-1).

When the Hinge Zone was developed, a 3,700-ton (3,357-tonne) bulk sample was treated through the process circuit with no changes having been made to that process. Recovery from this bulk sample was generally 92%. Subsequent samples were processed in May and June of 2009 with recoveries at 96.6% and 97.2% respectively, not shown.

In August 2010, the first bulk sample from the 007 Zone ore was processed. This represented 6,245 tons (5,667 tonnes) grading 0.139 opt Au (4.77 g/t Au) gold with a general recovery of 92%. Additional samples in the months of September and October of 2010 yielded recoveries between 95% and 92%, not shown. Current process plant recovery from all ore is 93.3%, not shown.

Although current operations employ a conventional ball mill as a primary grinding unit, the potential of Semi-Autogenous Grinding (SAG) milling was investigated. Samples of both True North and Hinge Zone mineralized material were sent to both SGS Mineral Services’ Lakefield Laboratory (SGS Lakefield) and Starkey & Associates Inc.

In 2012 several flotation tails samples were leached in cyanide to understand the potential need for building a flotation tails leach circuit at the Project. The samples were tested during two test programs with both programs employing a 24-hour leach on as-received samples at a pH above 10.0. The first program used a cyanide concentration of 2.5 grams per litre cyanide (gpl NaCN) and the second program a concentration of 0.5 gpl NaCN. The results of these two programs are summarized in the Table 13-7 and Table 13-8

Mineral Resource Estimates


  14.1.

Introduction

The mineral resource estimate presented herein has been prepared following “CIM Estimation of Mineral Resource and Mineral Reserves Best Practices” guidelines (CIM 2014). Mineral resources have been classified in accordance with the “CIM Standards on Mineral Resources and Reserves: Definition and Guidelines”:

 

Measured Mineral Resource: “A ‘Measured Mineral Resource’ is that part of a mineral resource for which quantity, grade or quality, densities, shape, and physical characteristics are so well established that they can be estimated with confidence sufficient to allow the appropriate application of technical and economic parameters, to support production planning and evaluation of the economic viability of the deposit. The estimate is based on detailed and reliable exploration, sampling and testing information gathered through appropriate techniques from locations such as outcrops, trenches, pits, workings and drill-holes that are spaced closely enough to confirm both geological and grade continuity.”

 

Indicated Mineral Resource: “An ‘Indicated Mineral Resource’ is that part of a mineral resource for which quantity, grade or quality, densities, shape and physical characteristics, can be estimated with a level of confidence sufficient to allow the appropriate application of technical and economic parameters, to support mine planning and evaluation of the economic viability of the deposit. The estimate is based on detailed and reliable exploration and testing information gathered through appropriate techniques from locations such as outcrops, trenches, pits, workings and drill-holes that are spaced closely enough for geological and grade continuity to be reasonably assumed.”

 

Inferred Mineral Resource: “An ‘Inferred Mineral Resource’ is that part of a mineral resource for which quantity and grade or quality can be estimated on the basis of geological evidence and limited sampling and reasonably assumed, but not verified, geological and grade continuity. The estimate is based on limited information and sampling gathered through appropriate techniques from locations such as outcrops, trenches, pits, workings and drill-holes.”

Mineral resources are not mineral reserves and do not have demonstrated economic viability. There is no guarantee that all or any part of the mineral resource will be converted into mineral reserve. Confidence in the estimate of Inferred Mineral Resources is insufficient to allow the meaningful application of technical and economic parameters or to enable an evaluation of economic viability worthy of public disclosure.

  14.2.1.

Data Supplied

The cut-off date for the drilling database used for this updated mineral resource estimate is March 31, 2018. The updated database encompasses records for 371,487 assay samples from 7,678 diamond drill-holes and 114,756 assay samples for 30,302 channel strings (Table 14-1). Distance units are reported in feet, and assay grade units are reported as ounce per short ton (opt).

Table 14-1 True North Database Records

Data Type Record Count Total Footage
Drill-hole Samples 371,487 760,894
Channel Samples 114,756 262,093
Total Samples 486,243 1,022,987

Industry standard validation checks were completed on the supplied databases, and minor corrections made where necessary. Validations performed included checking for inconsistencies in naming conventions or analytical units, duplicate entries, interval, length or distance values less than or equal to zero, blank or zero-value assay results, out-of-sequence intervals, intervals or distances greater than the reported drill hole length, inappropriate collar locations, and missing interval and coordinate fields. No significant discrepancies with the supplied data were noted.

  14.2.2.

Bulk Density

There are a total of 7,586 bulk density measurements, with an average value of 2.76 tonnes per cubic meter (0.086 short tons per cubic foot) (Table 14-2). Bulk density was determined by immersion of dried core samples in distilled water.

The average reported bulk density of 2.76 tonnes per cubic meter (0.086 short tons per cubic foot; 11.7 cubic feet per short ton) was used for mineral resource estimation.

Vein Modelling

The updated mineral resource estimate is based on 73 modelled veins. Of the 73 modelled veins reported herein, 25 modelled veins are unchanged from the 2017 mineral resource, 22 of the newly modeled veins have had depletion applied, 36 modeled veins have been updated with additional information, and 12 modelled veins have been added to the 2018 mineral resource estimate.

Vein models were developed based on a scripted grid modelling workflow using Maptek Vulcan software. Grid modelling is applicable to modelling narrow, continuous geological features such as precious metal veins and coal seams and creates a surface by interpolating a regular grid of points over a modelling area. These grid points are combined with the input intercepts to create output triangulated surfaces that represent the vein hanging wall and footwall contacts. The contacts are combined to create a valid solid triangulation for use in building the resource block model.

The modelling methodology can be summarized as follows:

  1.

Set the vein to be modelled, its overall dip and dip direction, and the Drill-hole and channel databases to be used.

  2.

Extract the hanging wall (HW) and footwall (FW) vein intercepts from the Drill-hole and channel databases.

  3.

Combine interpreted or surveyed HW and FW points to control the vein model interpretation where required.

  4.

Use the dip and dip direction settings to rotate the intercepts to a local flat plane.

  5.

Use inverse distance to contour HW and FW grid surfaces from the input data and perform grid mathematics to ensure HW grid points are always above FW grid.

  6.

Create a triangulation of the HW contact that combines the grid model points with the input intercepts to ensure the final surface is snapped to the input data. Repeat this process for the FW contact. Model specific settings are attached as attributes to the triangulations and also written to a text file for future auditing. Where channel samples are present, channel sampling may override Drill-hole sampling in generating the vein model as Drill-hole intercepts may be found to be locally inaccurate. Drill-holes to be ignored are flagged to allow channel samples will take precedence over drilling.

  7.

Produce boundary polygons of the vein contact surfaces to create a boundary triangulation that can be appended to the vein contacts to create a valid solid triangulation.

  8.

Un-rotate the triangulations and intercepts back to their true spatial location.

  9.

Clip the solid vein triangulation to the topography and other vein surfaces as required.

  10.

Build the vein block model. The block model specifications are read directly from the vein extents and overall dip and dip direction used in the vein model creation process. Block sizes along strike and down dip are set to 5.0 ft. x 5.0 ft. to represent local variations in orientation of the vein. Block sizes across the thickness of the vein are designated as a single block across the true width of the vein to a minimum thickness resolution of 0.2 ft. This ensures the local vein orientations and volumes are representative but also rationalizes the size of the final block model.

The modelling technique produces a series of valid triangulated wireframes oriented to the plane of the vein, as well as a corresponding rotated and plunging block model for each vein. The block model corresponding to the vein has constant strike and dip dimensions of 5.0 -feet and a variable vein thickness perpendicular to strike.

The vein wireframes were used for volumetrics, sample coding, statistical analysis and compositing limits (Table 14-3).

Compositing

Drill-hole assay sample lengths within the updated veins range from 0.1 -foot to 10.0 -feet with an average sample length of 1.6 -feet. Channel assay sample lengths within the defined veins range from 0.3 -feet to 10.0 -feet with an average sample length of 2.3 -feet. A maximum length of 10.0 -feet. was selected for compositing in order to generate single intercept composites across the width of the vein. Drill-hole assay samples were capped at 10.0 opt prior to compositing

Where drill-holes were oriented sub-parallel to the strike of a particular vein, they may not representative of local mineralization. In these cases the drill-holes were excluded from the compositing process for that vein.

Length-weighted composites were calculated within the defined vein. Missing sample intervals or zero-grade assay intervals were assigned a value of 0.001 opt. The compositing process started at the first point of intersection between the Drill-hole and the vein intersected, and halted on exit from the vein wireframe. All residual composites were retained. The wireframes that represent the interpreted veins were also used to back-tag a rock code field into the assay and composite workspaces. The resulting composite data were visually validated against vein wireframes. Summary statistics were calculated separately by vein for the composite samples (Table 14-6).

Grade capping analysis was conducted on the vein-coded and composited grade data in order to evaluate the potential influence of extreme values during Au grade estimation. The presence of high-grade outliers was identified by examination of histograms and log-probability plots. Composites were capped to the selected value prior to estimation.

In addition, due to the highly channelized nature of the mineralization a 25.0 -foot high yield range restriction on samples greater than the 97.5th percentile of the local vein composite data set was used during the first Au grade estimation pass for the updated veins (Table 14-7).

Au Grade Estimation, Classification and Minimum Width

The mineral resource estimate reported herein was constrained by vein wireframes that form hard boundaries between their respective composite sample extents. All Au block grades were estimated using a triple pass Inverse Distance cubed (“ID3”) weighting of between four and twelve capped composite grades from two or more drill-holes. In addition, due to the varying sample spacing supports of the data, a declustering weighting factor was applied during Au grade estimation. A discretization level of 4 x 4 x 1 was used for the updated veins.

During the first pass, Drill-hole and channel samples were selected using an anisotropic search with a radius of 50.0 ft x 50.0 ft x 25.0 ft. All blocks estimated during the first pass were algorithmically assigned a classification of Measured.

During the second pass, Drill-hole samples were selected using an anisotropic search with a radius of 100.0 ft x 100 ft x 50 ft. For the second pass, estimation was implemented using a 25.0 ft. by 25.0 ft. by 25.0 ft. parent block size. All blocks estimated during the second pass were algorithmically assigned a classification of Indicated.

During the third pass, Drill-hole samples were selected using an anisotropic search with a radius of 500.0 ft x 500 ft x 150 ft. For the third pass, estimation was implemented using a 50.0 ft. by 50.0 ft. by 50.0 ft. parent block size. All blocks estimated during the third pass were algorithmically assigned a classification of Inferred.

Blocks that did not meet the minimum sample requirements were not estimated.

A Nearest Neighbor model (“NN”) was also generated simultaneously for use in validation reporting.

  14.2.8.

Block Model Validation

The block models were validated visually in long section in order to confirm that the block models correctly reflect the distribution of high-grade and low-grade values. Long section plots of V710 and V711 for gold estimates are compared in Figure 14-2 and Figure 14-3 and the color legend represented in Figure 14-1.

Drift analysis plots were created for all modelled veins to compare the average grade of ID3 estimate to a nearest neighbor estimate spatially through the models. Plots were created for swaths along strike (X) and down dip (Z) and examples for V710 and V711 are plotted in Figure 14-4 through Figure 14-7 for Measured and Indicated resources.

Smoothing checks were created using Discrete Gaussian change of support to compare the block estimates to a theoretical grade tonnage curve based on the nearest neighbor data distribution, a variogram representing the grade continuity of the vein, and a block size for selectivity. The theoretical tons and grade is a spatial estimate that serves as a general comparison tool to ensure there is no significant over or under estimation of the tons and grade and subsequent metal above a cutoff. The Sample grade tonnage curve shows the curve at maximum ore/waste selectivity as the upper, but unrealistic, end member. For V710, the block estimated tons and grade compares very well to the theoretical support tons and grade across a range of cutoffs that encompass the typical range of production cutoff grades for this deposit (Figure 14-8). The subsequent metal remains within 5% for all cutoffs.

For the V711, the theoretical tons and grade are smoother than the block estimated tons and grade across the range of cutoffs that encompass the typical range of production cutoff grades for this deposit but the results are within acceptable limits and the metal above cutoff remains within 5% (Figure 14-9).

As a further check of the mineral resource model the total volume reported at zero Au cut-off was compared by vein with the calculated volume of the defining mineralization wireframe (Table 14-9). All reported volumes fall within acceptable tolerances.

Notes

  1.

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, marketing, or other relevant issues.

  2.

Mineral resources were estimated using the Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy and Petroleum (CIM), CIM Standards on Mineral Resources and Reserves, Definitions and Guidelines prepared by the CIM Standing Committee on Reserve Definitions and adopted by CIM Council.

  3.

The quantity and grade of reported Inferred resources in this estimation are uncertain in nature and there has been insufficient exploration to define these inferred resources as an Indicated or Measured mineral resources.

  4.

Contained metal may differ due to rounding.

Tailings Resources


  14.3.1.

Tailings Mineral Resource Model

Mineral Resource modelling and estimation reported in this section were carried out using Gemcom GEMS (version 5.4.1) and Snowden Supervisor (version 7.10.11) software programs.

  14.3.2.

Tailings Data Supplied

Sample data were provided electronically by KDX. Distance units are reported in feet, and Au assay grade units are reported opt. The supplied drilling database contains records for 138 drill-holes, of which 39 are stem auger drill-holes and 99 are percussion probe drill-holes. The drilling grid as completed is on the order of 200 feet by 100 feet (60m x 30m).

The supplied database also included results for 210 pit samples recovered from hand-dug excavations. Pit samples were examined visually during modelling, but were not used for estimation due to differences in support size, sample quality and assay results compared with adjacent Drill-hole samples (Figure 14-10).

  14.3.4.

Deposit Modelling

KDX supplied a three-dimensional AutoCAD format drawing file of the tailings. The upper surface of the tailings volume was constructed from collar elevations and the lower surface was defined by Drill-hole intersection of the underlying clay/peat horizon. The modeled tailings volume is on the order of 30 feet (9m) thick.

Compositing

Drill-hole assay sample lengths within the defined tailings volume range from 0.5 feet to 5.0 feet, (0.15m to 1.52m) with an average sample length of 4.73 feet (1.44m). A compositing length of 10.0 feet (3.05m) was selected for compositing, equivalent to the model block height. Residual sample lengths less than 5.0 feet (1.52m) were merged with the preceding composite interval. The resulting composite lengths range from 5.0 feet to 14.0 feet (1.52m to 4.27m) with an average length of 9.4 feet (2.87m).

The resulting composite data were visually validated and summary statistics were calculated for the resulting composite samples (Table 14-14).

Spatial Analysis

A horizontal experimental semi-variogram was modeled from uncapped composite samples. Standardized spherical models were used to model the experimental semi-variogram in normal-score transformed space (Figure 14-11), and the modeled variance contributions were then back-transformed to:

0.17 + 0.30 Spherical50 + 0.60 Spherical750

The resulting semi-variogram suggests a maximum range on the order of 750 feet (230m) (Figure 14-11).

Treatment of Extreme Values

Grade capping analysis was conducted on the composited grade data in order to evaluate the potential influence of extreme values during grade estimation. The presence of high-grade outliers was identified by examination of histograms and log-probability plots (Figure 14-12). Composites were capped to the selected threshold value prior to estimation:

  Capping Threshold: 0.060 opt (2.06 g/t)
  Average Uncapped Au Grade: 0.021 opt (0.72 g/t)
  Maximum Au Grade: 0.206 opt (7.06 g/t)
  Number Capped: 5
  Average Au Capped Grade: 0.020 opt (0.69 g/t)
  Percent Change: 4.8%

  14.3.9.

Block Model Extents

A rotated block model was established across the Project with the block model limits selected so as to cover the extent of the defined volume and reflect the generally general dimensions of the drilling grid (Table 14-15). The block model consists of separate models for estimated grades, rock code, percent, density and classification attributes. A percent block model was used to accurately represent the volume and tonnage contained within the constraining tailings volume.

Table 14-15 Tailings Block Model Orientation

Dimension Origin Count Size (ft)
X 6,800 90 50
Y 9,000 60 50
Z 10,000 6 10
Rotation -20° counter-clockwise from the origin.

  14.3.10.

Gold Tailings Grade Estimation & Classification

The tailings mineral resource estimate was constrained within the extents of the modeled tailings volume. Au block grades were estimated using a single pass Inverse Distance Cubed (“ID3”) weighting of between three and twelve capped composite grades from two or more drill-holes. A NN model was also generated simultaneously using the same search parameters.

Practical Mining LLC May 8, 2018



Havilah Mining Technical Report for the True North Mine, Bissett, Page 141
Corporation Manitoba, Canada  

Blocks within 250 feet (76m) of a Drill-hole sample were classified as Inferred, and blocks within 250 feet (76m) of at least three Drill-hole samples were classified as Indicated. This ensures that blocks classified as Indicated were largely interpolated between drill-holes, while Inferred blocks were not extrapolated beyond a reasonable limit and that all block estimates are within the spatial range defined by the experimental semi-variogram. Approximately 25% of the blocks contained by the tailings volume are outside these limits and remain un-estimated.

  14.3.11.

Tailings Block Model Validation

The block models were validated visually by the inspection of successive cross sections in order to confirm that the block model correctly reflects the distribution of high-grade and low-grade values (Figure 14-13). An additional validation check was completed by comparing the average grade of the informing composites to the model block grade estimates at zero cut-off. Block grades were also compared to the NN model generated using the same search criteria as that used for the ID3 Mineral Resource estimate:

  Avg. Capped Au Composite Grade: 0.02 opt Au (0.69 g/t Au);
  Avg. Au ID3 Block Grade: 0.02 opt Au (0.69 g/t Au); and
  Avg. Au NN Block Grade: 0.02 opt Au (0.69 g/t Au)

Practical Mining LLC May 8, 2018



Page 142 Mineral Resource Estimates Havilah Mining
    Corporation

As a check on the selected methodology, the results were also generated by Ordinary Kriging (OK) and Inverse Distance Squared (ID2) estimation. In both cases, it was noted that the ID3 estimates compared better with regards to the average block composite grade (Figure 14-14).

Practical Mining LLC May 8, 2018

Notes:

  1.

Tailings Mineral resources have been calculated at a Au cut-off grade of 0.015 opt;

  2.

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, socio-political, marketing, or other relevant factors; and

  3.

The quantity and grade of reported inferred mineral resources in this estimation are uncertain in nature and there is insufficient exploration to define these inferred mineral resources as an indicated or measured mineral resources.

Adjacent Properties

There are several mineral exploration properties adjacent to Havilah’s True North Project (Figure 23-1) however, most appear to be inactive. The properties discussed in Section 23 are not part of the True North Project. The information presented herein has been publicly disclosed by Golden Pocket Resources and Bison Gold Resources Inc. The Authors have not verified this information and it is not indicative of the quality or quantity of mineralization at the True North Project.

  23.1.

Golden Pocket Resources

Golden Pocket Resources Ltd. (GPR) owns the Bissett Project exploration property south and adjacent to True North. GPR’s land position includes 71 unpatented claims, 7 patented mining claims and 1 mining lease totaling approximately 10,845 acres (4,389 hectares). GPR’s Bissett project is adjacent to the True North mine, and is contiguous with the unpatented claims held jointly with Greenbelt Gold Mines.

Maps on their website show numerous gold mineralized zones, drill-hole collar locations, and historic shafts. In 1998, Golden Pocket drilled 131 diamond holes, for a total of 68,652 feet (20,925 m). The drilling returned high grade gold intersects, particularly from the Nevada Zone. Currently, Golden Pocket has sufficient assessment credits to keep the Bissett Property in good standing (Golden Pocket Resources, 2018).

  23.1.

Bison Gold Resources Inc.

Bison Gold Resources Inc (Bison) owns the Cryderman Central property about 15 miles (25 km) to the southeast of True North, but adjacent to KC owned ground in that area. Bison also retains a 100% interest in the Ogama-Rockland property 19 miles (30 km) southeast from True North.

A NI 43-101 technical report dated November 15, 2013 for the Ogama-Rockland Property, issued to Bison, states an Inferred Mineral resource of 1.28 million tons (1.16 million tonnes) grading 0.24 opt Au (8.17 g/t Au). The style of gold mineralization is dominated by gold-bearing quartz-carbonate veins associated with shear zones in granite host rocks. (Chater et al, 2013)

On October 19, 2017 KDX completed the acquisition of Bison for US$7.3 M (Klondex 2018). The Bison properties are not included in the True North Project.

The Qualified Persons have not done sufficient work to classify the historical estimates as a current Mineral Resource or Mineral Reserve, and PM, and P&E are not treating these historical estimates as current Mineral Resources or Mineral Reserves. The historical estimates cannot be fully verified. These values cannot and should not be relied upon and are only referred to herein as an indication of previously defined gold mineralization. The relevance of the historical estimates is not known. Key assumptions, parameters and methods used to estimate these Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves are not known.

Other Relevant Data and Information


  24.1.

Underground Mine


  24.1.1.

Access Development

True North is an underground mining operation that has operated since the early 20th century. Over the years, the mine has employed many mining methods including shrinkage, sublevel stoping, cut and fill and panel stoping.

Currently, the Project has two main production levels, namely 16L and 26L, which are accessed via a 4,060-foot (1,238 m) two compartment shaft (A-Shaft). The 710 Zone mining complex is the main mining area and is located approximately 6,600-feet (2,000 m) from A-Shaft along the 26L access level.

The main haulage track drift on 26L is used to access the 710 Vein. In order to access above and below the 26L, the 710 Vein has a 12-foot by 12-foot (3.7 m x 3.7 m) incline and decline driven at a maximum gradient of +/-15% with access cross-cuts into the ore body every 60-feet (18 m) vertically. Additional infrastructure along the incline includes a vertical ventilation and escape raise and an ore and waste pass system.

A longitudinal section through the mine is provided in Figure 24-1.

  24.1.2.

Geotechnical

Rock characteristics at True North are typical northern Canadian shield conditions with very little water and very competent with Rock Mass Ratings (RMR) ranging from 65% to 85%. In large areas and stopes all necessary joint sets are mapped and ground support requirements are examined using Roc Science Unwedge computer program.

The Uniaxial Compressive Strength (UCS) of the rock is 29,000 psi (200 million pascal MPa). Due to the depth of the 710 mining area, vertical stress will range from 4,350 psi (30 MPa) to 5,800 psi (40 MPa) with maximum horizontal stress being 1.3 times the vertical stress.

  24.1.3.

Ground Support

The ground conditions at True North are typical of those found elsewhere in the northern shield, with typically dry and very competent conditions. The main ground support system is resin encapsulated 6-ft (1.8 m) #6 rebar bolted in a 4-foot by 4-foot (1.2 m by 1.2 m) pattern, supporting 4-inch (0.1 m) welded wire mesh. In areas wider than 18-feet (5.5 m), 8-feet (2.4 m) #6 rebar bolts replace the 6-foot (1.8 m) rebar bolts.

Practical Mining LLC May 8, 2018



Havilah Mining Technical Report for the True North Mine, Bissett, Page 149
Corporation Manitoba, Canada  

Where more adverse conditions are encountered in long hole stopes, 20-feet (6 m) and 30-feet (9 m) long grout encapsulated cable bolts are installed as well as in intersections with spans between 20-feet and 30-feet (6 m to 9 m). The cable bolt pattern is determined from the specific conditions and are drilled with a long hole drill and then fully grouted.

Ventilation and Secondary Egress

Underground mining relies on diesel equipment in the process to extract the mineralized material and waste rock and to transport backfill to the stopes. The Project is ventilated through an intake connection to surface. This air route includes travel through historic mining areas and from there, it is directed to the 24L and distributed to the main 710 Zone mining horizon via horizontal and vertical openings. All the air eventually exhausts out through A-Shaft. Auxiliary fans located in development headings ventilate working faces via ducting. The surface intake fans are two 150 horsepower (HP) (110 kilo Watt [kW]) fans and the 24L main ventilation fans deliver 75,000 cubic feet per minute (cfm) (5.7 m3/sec) to the 710 Zone. A ventilation schematic is provided in Figure 24-2.

Two means of secondary egress are available at the project. These include a man-way with ladders and landings in A-Shaft and a second man-way connection to surface is via a timbered raise from 26L to 16L, which continues on to a man-way up B shaft to 8L and then on to a series of other raises from 8L to surface.

  24.1.5.

Power Distribution and Dewatering

Electrical power to the mine is provided by a 4,160-volt feeder connection which is stepped down to 600 volts for distribution. Step down transformers and circuit protection are provided by 22 load centers located throughout the mine. Excess mine water is dewatered from 26L to 16L to 10L and then to the process plant where is it sent to tailings. The mine purges water at a rate of approximately 340-gallon (1.36 m3) per week, however, most water is recycled and inflow from the surrounding rock is minimal.

Mining Methods

The primary mining method at the Project is long hole stoping which is a cost-effective method to mine the complex geology at the Project, and benefits from a quick stope cycle time. In areas where mineralization does not warrant the development of a ramp access system, the mine employs captive sublevel stoping methods

  g)

Long Hole Stoping

Long hole stoping is the lowest cost method used at the Project and generally also provides the lowest total cost per ounce of gold produced.

Level accesses are driven perpendicular towards the ore body every 60-feet (18 m) vertical. From these access drifts, 8-foot x 9-foot (2.4 m x 2.7 m) sills are developed along the strike of the mineralized zone (Figure 24-3).

Once the levels are developed, a slot raise is driven between the levels which provides the free face necessary for long hole blasting. Subsequently, long hole drilling is carried out with 2.5 inch (64 mm) holes on a 3-foot (0.9 m) ring burden. The actual drill pattern is determined by the stope shape. (Figure 24-4).

Practical Mining LLC May 8, 2018

    Corporation.

Once all long hole drilling is completed, the stope is loaded with explosives and blasted. A diesel powered load-haul-dump machine (LHD) is used to move the blasted material from the undercut. The LHD is equipped with line-of-sight remote control to allow the removal of all blasted rock without exposing operating personnel to the open stope and the potential risk of ground falls (Figure 24-5).

After all blasted material has been extracted, the remaining void may be backfilled with waste rock (Figure 24-6).

  24.1.7.

Captive Sub Level Long hole Stoping

Captive sub level long hole stoping is used in situations where an up-ramp access cannot be economically justified. This mining method uses three 6 foot by 6 foot (1.8m by 1.8m) raises up to 60 feet (18m) in length. One raise acts as a slot raise for the long hole blasts to slash into; the second raise acts as a mill-hole for muck from the sublevel where broken ore is slushed into; and the last is an access man-way. At the top of the raises an 8 foot by 9 foot (2.4m by 2.7m) sublevel is driven along the strike of the ore body. An air slusher is used to move the development muck from the sublevel over to and down the mill hole. If the mineralization warrants, another series of raises and a sublevel are developed along strike.

After all of the raises and sublevels are developed, long hole drilling is carried out with an air drill capable of drilling 2.5 -inch (64 mm) holes on a 3-foot (0.9 m) ring burden. These rings are blasted into the slot raises. The material drops to the bottom level and a remote controlled LHD removes the blasted ore without exposing the operator to the open stope and the potential risk of ground falls.

  h)

Haulage

Ore and waste rock generated from the incline of the 710 Zone mining complex is hauled with LHDs to the vertical ore and waste chute system which connects to the 26L haulage drift. The material is then loaded into rail cars and hauled from the rock passes along the haulage drift with a diesel locomotive and 5-ton (4.5 -tonne) rail cars. The cars are dumped at a grizzly equipped with a rock breaker and the material is sent to the loading pocket below 26L, from where it is hoisted in the shaft to surface in a 5-ton (4.5 -tonne) capacity skip.

In the 710 Zone mining complex decline, ore and waste are hauled to the 26L haulage drift via two 13-ton (12-tonne) rubber tired underground mining haul trucks. These haul trucks deliver the ore and waste rock to the 710 ore and waste bins. From these ore bins, the follows the same route as described in the above paragraph.

  i)

Backfill

Waste rock is moved from development to stoping whenever possible and major fill zones are created in the mining through the down hole long hole method on the 710-incline. The decline will not create fill void and will require sill pillars at certain level intervals. With mining in the incline is being filled, a percentage of waste rock will need to be removed from the mine but there will be sufficient material to fill the void created.

Recovery Methods


  24.2.1.

Mined Ore

In 2011, the process crushing plant was expanded by adding a new primary 30-inch by 42-inch (760 mm by 1067 mm) jaw crusher, a GP300 gyratory crusher as a secondary breaker and a Barmac B8000 VSI (vertical shaft impact) crusher as a tertiary unit. There units are all in line with a 7-foot by 20-foot (2.1 m by 6.1 m) triple deck vibrating screen (Figure 24-11).

The process plant feed is ground in an Allis Chalmers 12 ½-foot by 14-foot (3.8 m by 4.3 m), 1,250 HP (933 kW) ball mill to 67% passing Tyler 200 mesh (74 microns). A portion of the process plant circulating load is passed through one of two 20inch (500 mm) gravity concentrators. Concentrate from these units is upgraded on an 8-foot (2.4 m) shaking table. The table concentrate is direct smelted. Tails from the concentrators and the shaking table are returned to the head end of the grinding mill. The fines from the grinding circuit are fed to one of two rows of 10 m3 OUTOTEC tank cells producing both a rougher concentrate grading between 5 and 10 opt (171 and 343 g/t Au) and a scavenger concentrate that is very low grade. The scavenger concentrate is circulated to the main grinding circuit. Rougher concentrate is collected and reground through an 8-foot by 6-foot (2.4 m by 1.8 m) ball mill to 98% passing Tyler 400 mesh (37 microns), thickened and leached in a three-stage leach circuit of 12-foot by 24-foot (3.6 m by 7.2 m) tanks. Dissolved gold is recovered using a six-stage carbon-in-pulp circuit using 12-foot by 14-foot (3.6 m x 4.3 m) vessels. The carbon is then eluted in a stainless-steel pressure strip vessel. The elution liquor is passed through an electrowinning cell fitted with stainless steel anodes and cathodes. Gold sludge from this cell is then smelted in an electric induction furnace.

Practical Mining LLC May 8, 2018



Page 160 Other Relevant Data and Information Havilah Mining
    Corporation.

Process plant recovery is name plated at 93.5% based on a feed grade of 0.16 opt (5.5 g/t). This recovery is grade dependent and has been as high as 96.5% with higher feed grades.

Past processing analyses have shown that the process plant feed is clean displaying no evidence of any deleterious constituents such as arsenic, mercury or antimony that would otherwise affect gold recovery in the leach circuit. Copper in solution is sometimes high.

The process plant operates on a 14-day on, 14-day off, 12-hour per day schedule utilizing four crews.

  24.2.1.

Tailings Reprocessing.

The existing flotation concentrate leach circuit remains intact with flotation tails reporting to a new pre-leach thickener. The flotation tails and trash screen undersize is combined and thickened using the new thickener. The thickener underflow is pumped to a series of six CIL tanks for cyanide leaching.

Practical Mining LLC May 8, 2018



Page 162 Other Relevant Data and Information Havilah Mining
    Corporation.
 

The CIP tails from the flotation concentrate leach circuit is pumped to the new CIL circuit. Carbon would be transferred counter current from the slurry with the carbon from the first CIL tank being pumped either to the acid wash vessel or to the flotation concentrate CIP circuit depending upon operational conditions. Material from the tailings storage facility would be pumped back to the process plant for processing as weather allows. It is estimated that the tailings pumping would operate approximately six months of the year. During the winter months only, the flotation underflow alone would report to the new thickener and then pumped to the new CIL circuit. The CIP tails from the flotation concentrate leach would continue to be pumped to the new CIL circuit.

Interpretation and Conclusions

PM is of the opinion that the core, channel chip and tailings sample assay data have been adequately verified for the purposes of a mineral resource estimate. All data included in the resource estimate appear to be of adequate quality.

The mining and processing methods in use at True North have been proven effective by the history of previous operations. Geotechnical risks are limited as shown by the large extent of underground workings.

With longhole mining there is increased risk hanging wall dilution along foliation planes and jointing as excavation size increases. The dilution encountered may be greater than the dilution included in the estimation of Mineral Resources and may have a negative impact on the quantity and quality of the Mineral Resources. In these areas alternative more selective and higher cost mining methods may be required.

The pre-existing mine closure plan that estimated closure costs at US$3.5M (C$4.4M) was transferred to KC in January 2016 along with an assignment of fixed-assets as financial security. It may be beneficial for Havilah to review the technical basis of the TMA closure approach presented in the 2012 mine closure plan and update the associated closure costs.

HMC is aware of the importance of an effective community engagement process to the Project. HMC should continue to enhance community engagement activities with local Indigenous communities, the Town of Bissett, other interested stakeholders, and regulatory agencies; on a priority basis.

The True North infrastructure is capable of supporting long term mining operations. HMC should optimize extraction of the existing mineral resource while exploring for additional opportunities in the surrounding area which can utilize the True North infrastructure.

26.

Recommendations

It is recommended that HMC take the following actions to maximize the value of the Project. The work programs described should occur concurrently with an integrated decision on proceeding with development made at the conclusion of all the work programs listed below.

Geology

  1.

Technical Database: All True North project data collected is stored and archived in a permanent and reliably retrieval manner. The database is currently administered by KDX corporate personnel. A full-time database administrator will be required to fill this position.

  2.

Quality Assurance/Quality Control: Timely follow-up for any and all QA/QC assay deviations and re-assay requests should be performed in a timely manner. The process should be automated when the database is up and running.

  3.

Sample Storage and Retrieval: Half-core remaining from sample assays should be retained for reference and check assay purposes. All assay sample rejects and pulps should be stored in a safe, secure and sheltered manner and properly catalogued to ease retrieval.

  4.

Project Assay Lab: Standard operating procedures should be updated, particularly in regard to assay data generation, storage and retrieval.

Exploration

  1.

The True North geological model which targets major structures as identified in surface lidar, drill core and geological mapping within favorable host rock conditions has proven successful in identifying new vein systems. HMC should continue to develop this existing model to target near mine ore sources as well as apply its principals to the regional land package.

  2.

Future exploration programs should focus on regional scale data compilation followed by target generation by prediction and evaluation.

  3.

Further examination for the potential of Timiskaming type gold mineralization at the unconformity at the base of the San Antonio formation.

  4.

Evaluation of the historic Gunnar Mine and the presence of neighboring quartz carbonate vein systems.

Exploration activities are estimated to cost between US$500,000 and $800,000 (C$625,000 and $1,000,000). These activities should proceed over the next one to two years.

Practical Mining LLC May 8, 2018



Havilah Mining Technical Report for the True North Mine, Bissett, Page 165
Corporation Manitoba, Canada  

Environmental and Mine Closure

It is recommended that HMC review the technical basis of the TMA closure approach presented in the 2012 mine closure plan and update the associated closure costs. A provisional amount for a US$250,000 (C$325,000) study that would be carried out over four years commencing in 2018 is recommended. This exercise will review and confirm the technical basis of the proposed TMA closure plan and estimated costs and possibly identify opportunities to improve upon the currently proposed approach.

Mine Operations and Planning

Complete a detailed engineering study and optimized mine plan. Specific elements to include are:

1.

Prepare accurate dilution estimates by geotechnical domain for each mining method and hanging wall dip;

2.

Estimate variable and fixed costs for each mining method;

3.

Cost benefit analysis for a mine backfill system;

4.

Produce individual stope designs using the most economic mining method included diluting material and the parameters developed above;

5.

Create a mine production and development schedule and perform sensitivity analysis to determine the optimal production rate;

6.

Continue processing the historic tailings material to offset the mine standby costs.

A detailed engineering study is anticipated to cost between US$200,000 and $250,000 (C$250,000 and $312.500) and will require approximately one year to complete.
