Information included in this presentation relating to the Company's expected production levels, production growth, costs, cash flows, economic
returns, exploration activities, potential for increasing resources, project expenditures and business plans are "forward-looking statements" or
"forward-looking information" within the meaning of certain securities laws, including under the provisions of Canadian provincial securities laws
and under the United States Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and are referred to herein as "forward-looking statements." The
Company does not intend, and does not assume any obligation, to update these forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements
represent management's best judgment based on current facts and assumptions that management considers reasonable, including that operating
and capital plans will not be disrupted by issues such as mechanical failure, unavailability of parts, labour disturbances, interruption in
transportation or utilities, or adverse weather conditions, that there are no material unanticipated variations in budgeted costs, that contractors will
complete projects according to schedule, and that actual mineralization on properties will be consistent with models and will not be less than
identified mineral reserves. The Company makes no representation that reasonable business people in possession of the same information would
reach the same conclusions. Forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors which may cause the
actual results, performance or achievements of the Company to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements
expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements. In particular, delays in development or mining and fluctuations in the price of gold or in
currency markets could prevent the Company from achieving its targets. Readers should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements.
More information about risks and uncertainties affecting the Company and its business is available in the Company's most recent Annual
Information Form and other regulatory filings with the Canadian Securities Administrators, which are posted on sedar at www.sedar.com, or the
Company’s most recent Annual Report on Form 40-F and other regulatory filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
QUALITY CONTROL
Lake Shore Gold has a quality control program to ensure best practices in the sampling and analysis of drill core. A total of three Quality Control
samples consisting of 1 blank, 1 certified standard and 1 reject duplicate are inserted into groups of 20 drill core samples. The blanks and the
certified standards are checked to be within acceptable limits prior to being accepted into the GEMS SQL database. Routine assays have been
completed using a standard fire assay with a 30-gram aliquot. For samples that return a value greater than three grams per tonne gold on
exploration projects and greater than 10 gpt at the Timmins mine and Thunder Creek underground project, the remaining pulp is taken and fire
assayed with a gravimetric finish. Select zones with visible gold are typically tested by pulp metallic analysis on some projects. NQ size drill core is
saw cut and half the drill core is sampled in standard intervals. The remaining half of the core is stored in a secure location. The drill core is
transported in security-sealed bags for preparation at ALS Chemex Prep Lab located in Timmins, Ontario, and the pulps shipped to ALS Chemex
Assay Laboratory in Vancouver, B.C. ALS Chemex is an ISO 9001-2000 registered laboratory preparing for ISO 17025 certification.
QUALIFIED PERSON
Scientific and technical information contained in this presentation has been reviewed and approved by Dan Gagnon, P.Geo., Executive Vice-
