LIFE
Offering”), on a private placement basis, pursuant

Instrument 45-106 – Prospectus Exemptions (“

In addition to the Units offered in connection

of up to $5,000,000 (the “Concurrent Private
Placement”).
Each Unit will consist of (i) one common share
in the capital of the Corporation (a “Common
Share”), and (ii) one half of one Common Share purchase
warrant (each whole warrant, a “Warrant”). Each
Warrant will entitle its holder to acquire one additional Common

The Agents will act as agent on a “best-efforts”
agency basis in connection with the LIFE Offering and the

of the Concurrent Private Placement by up to $2,250,000 by giving
written notice of the exercise of the Agent's Option, or a part
thereof, to the Corporation at any time up to three business days
prior to the Closing Date (as defined herein).
The Corporation intends to use the net proceeds
raised from the LIFE Offering and Concurrent Private Placement for
exploration of at the Quiulacocha Tailings Project and for general
corporate and working capital purposes.

requirements and in accordance with NI 45-106, the Units sold
pursuant to the LIFE Offering, will be offered in all the Provinces

exemption under Part 5A of NI 45-106 (the “Listed Issuer

subject to certain conditions including, but not limited to,

As consideration for their services, the Agents

issued in connection with the exercise of the Agents’ Option, as
