Forward Looking Statement – Safe Harbour
Certain information in this presentation may contain forward-looking statements. This information is based on current
expectations that are subject to significant risks, assumptions and uncertainties that are difficult to predict and the risk that
regulatory approvals may not be obtained or that conditions of closing will not be satisfied or waved within the timeframe
contemplated. Additional potential risks include: that U.S. Silver & Gold may not achieve anticipated synergies; loss of key
personnel; reduction in the anticipated cash levels; and, not achieving production goals stated. Actual results might differ
materially from results suggested in any forward-looking statements. All statements, other than statements of historical fact,
included in the presentation, including, without limitation, statements regarding potential mineralization and reserves,
exploration results, and future plans and objectives of U.S. Silver & Gold, are forward-looking statements. Words such as
“expect”, “anticipate”, “estimate”, “may”, “will”, “should”, “intend”, “believe” and other similar expressions are forward-looking
statements. Forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future results and conditions but rather reflect our current views
with respect to future events and are subject to risks, uncertainties, assumptions and other factors, and actual results and
future events could differ materially from those anticipated in such statements. There can be no assurance that such forward-
looking statements will prove to be accurate. U.S. Silver & Gold assume no obligation to update the forward-looking
statements, or to update the reasons why actual results could differ from those reflected in the forward looking-statements
unless and until required by securities laws applicable to the U.S. Silver & Gold. Additional information identifying risks and
uncertainties is contained in filings by U.S. Silver & Gold with the Canadian securities regulators, which filings are available at
www.sedar.com.

An additional Cautionary Note to Investors – In the event that we use certain terms in this presentation, such as “resource”,
“measured resource”, “indicated resource” and “inferred resource”. U.S .investors are cautioned that, while such terms are
recognized and required by Canadian Securities Laws, the United States Securities and Exchange Commission does not
recognize them. Under U.S. standards, mineralization may not be classified as a “reserve” unless the determination has been
made that the mineralization could be economically and legally produced or extracted at the time the reserve determination
has been made. U.S. investors should not assume that all or any part of measured or indicated resources will ever be
converted into reserves. In addition, “inferred resources” have a great amount of uncertainty as to their existence and as to
whether they can be mined legally or economically. Accordingly, information concerning descriptions of mineralization in this
presentation may not be comparable to information made public by companies that are subject to the SEC’s Industry Guide 7.

Mr. Jim Atkinson, Vice President, Exploration and a Qualified Person under Canadian Securities Administrators guidelines has
approved the applicable contents of this presentation.

  • 2. Forward Looking Statement – Safe Harbour Certain information in this presentation may contain forward-looking statements. This information is based on current expectations that are subject to significant risks, assumptions and uncertainties that are difficult to predict and the risk that regulatory approvals may not be obtained or that conditions of closing will not be satisfied or waved within the timeframe contemplated. Additional potential risks include: that U.S. Silver & Gold may not achieve anticipated synergies; loss of key personnel; reduction in the anticipated cash levels; and, not achieving production goals stated. Actual results might differ materially from results suggested in any forward-looking statements. All statements, other than statements of historical fact, included in the presentation, including, without limitation, statements regarding potential mineralization and reserves, exploration results, and future plans and objectives of U.S. Silver & Gold, are forward-looking statements. Words such as “expect”, “anticipate”, “estimate”, “may”, “will”, “should”, “intend”, “believe” and other similar expressions are forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future results and conditions but rather reflect our current views with respect to future events and are subject to risks, uncertainties, assumptions and other factors, and actual results and future events could differ materially from those anticipated in such statements. There can be no assurance that such forward- looking statements will prove to be accurate. U.S. Silver & Gold assume no obligation to update the forward-looking statements, or to update the reasons why actual results could differ from those reflected in the forward looking-statements unless and until required by securities laws applicable to the U.S. Silver & Gold. Additional information identifying risks and uncertainties is contained in filings by U.S. Silver & Gold with the Canadian securities regulators, which filings are available at www.sedar.com. An additional Cautionary Note to Investors – In the event that we use certain terms in this presentation, such as “resource”, “measured resource”, “indicated resource” and “inferred resource”. U.S .investors are cautioned that, while such terms are recognized and required by Canadian Securities Laws, the United States Securities and Exchange Commission does not recognize them. Under U.S. standards, mineralization may not be classified as a “reserve” unless the determination has been made that the mineralization could be economically and legally produced or extracted at the time the reserve determination has been made. U.S. investors should not assume that all or any part of measured or indicated resources will ever be converted into reserves. In addition, “inferred resources” have a great amount of uncertainty as to their existence and as to whether they can be mined legally or economically. Accordingly, information concerning descriptions of mineralization in this presentation may not be comparable to information made public by companies that are subject to the SEC’s Industry Guide 7. Mr. Jim Atkinson, Vice President, Exploration and a Qualified Person under Canadian Securities Administrators guidelines has approved the applicable contents of this presentation. 2
