This presentation, and the documents incorporated by reference herein, may contain “forward-looking information” within the meaning of Canadian securities legislation and “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the United States Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 (collectively, “forward-looking statements”). These forward-looking statements are made as of the date of this document and Capstone does not intend, and does not assume any obligation, to update these forward-looking statements, except as required under applicable securities legislation.

Forward-looking statements relate to future events or future performance and reflect our expectations or beliefs regarding future events. Forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements with respect to the estimation of mineral resources and mineral reserves, the realization of mineral reserve estimates, the timing and amount of estimated future production, costs of production and capital expenditures, the success of our mining operations, environmental risks, unanticipated reclamation expenses and title disputes. In certain cases, forward-looking statements can be identified by the use of words such as “plans”, “expects”, “budget”, “scheduled”, “estimates”, “forecasts”, “intends”, “anticipates”, “believes” or variations of such words and phrases, or statements that certain actions, events or results “may”, “could”, “would”, “might” or “will be taken”, “occur” or “be achieved” or the negative of these terms or comparable terminology. By their very nature, forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause our actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements. Such factors include, amongst others, risks related to inherent hazards associated with mining operations, future prices of copper and other metals, compliance with financial covenants, surety bonding, our ability to raise capital, counterparty risks associated with sales of our metals, use of financial derivative instruments and associated counterparty risks, foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations, changes in general economic conditions, accuracy of mineral resource and mineral reserve estimates, operating in foreign jurisdictions with risk of changes to governmental regulation, compliance with governmental regulations, compliance with environmental laws and regulations, reliance on approvals, licences and permits from governmental authorities, impact of climatic conditions on our Pinto Valley, Cozamin and Minto operations, aboriginal title claims and rights to consultation and accommodation, land reclamation and mine closure obligations, uncertainties and risks related to the potential development of the Santo Domingo Project, increased operating and capital costs, challenges to title to our mineral properties, dependence on key management personnel, potential conflicts of interest involving our directors and officers, corruption and bribery, limitations inherent in our insurance coverage, labour relations, increasing energy prices, competition in the mining industry, risks associated with joint venture partners, our ability to integrate new acquisitions into our operations, cybersecurity threats and other risks of the mining industry as well as those factors detailed from time to time in the Company’s interim and annual financial statements and management’s discussion and analysis of those statements, all of which are filed and available for review under the Company’s profile on SEDAR at www.sedar.com.

Although the Company has attempted to identify important factors that could cause our actual results, performance or achievements to differ materially from those described in our forward-looking statements, there may be other factors that cause our results, performance or achievements not to be as anticipated, estimated or intended. There can be no assurance that our forward-looking statements will prove to be accurate, as our actual results, performance or achievements could differ materially from those anticipated in such statements. Accordingly, readers should not place undue reliance on our forward-looking statements.

Alternative Performance Measures“C1 cash cost”, “cash cost”, “all-in cost”, “fully-loaded all-in cost”, “adjusted net income/loss”, “operating cash flow before changes in working capital” and “net debt” are Alternative Performance Measures. Alternative performance measures are furnished to provide additional information. These non-GAAP performance measures are included in this presentation because these statistics are key performance measures that management uses to monitor performance, to assess how the Company is performing, to plan and to assess the overall effectiveness and efficiency of mining operations. These performance measures may not be comparable to similar data presented by other mining companies. These performance measures should not be considered in isolation as a substitute for measures of performance included in the Company’s unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with IFRS.

CurrencyAll amounts are in US$ unless otherwise specified.

Financial & Operating Results

1. These are Alternative Performance Measures. See Forward-Looking Statements and Cautionary Note for NI 43-101 information. * Q3 2016 includes a negative provisional pricing adjustment of $1.4 million (2015 – negative $8.0 million) related to prior shipments, equivalent to $(0.02) per pound (2015 – $(0.15) per pound) of copper sold during the quarter. 2016 YTD includes a negative provisional pricing adjustment of $12.9 million (2015 – negative $21.6 million) related to prior shipments, equivalent to $(0.07) per pound (2015 – ($0.15) per pound) of copper sold during the nine month period. The Q3 2016 and 2016 YTD negative provisional pricing adjustments were predominantly related to assay adjustments. The Q3 2016 figure of ($1.4 million) is broken down as ($0.3 million) related to price adjustments and ($1.1 million) related to assay adjustments. This translates into adjustments of ($0.00) and ($0.02) respectively on a per pound sold basis. The YTD Q3 2016 figure of ($12.9 million) is broken down as ($0.9 million) related to price adjustments and ($12.0 million) related to assay adjustments. This translates into adjustments of ($0.01) and ($0.06) respectively on a per pound sold basis.** Q3 2016 Adjusted realized copper price includes a realized gain of $2.0 million related to maturing forward contracts and nil related to exercised put contracts (Q3 2015 – $5.7 million related to exercised put contracts). 2016 YTD Adjusted realized copper price includes a realized gain of $2.2 million related to maturing forward contracts and $9.6 million related to exercised put contracts (2015 – $5.7 million related to exercised put contracts).

Notes: Consolidated Mineral Reserve Estimate

NOTES: Mineral Reserves take into account mining activities (where applicable) until January 1, 2016. Gregg Bush, P.Eng., Senior Vice President and Chief Operating Officer at Capstone, is the Qualified Person for the disclosure of Capstone's consolidated Mineral Reserves table. Rounding as required by reporting guidelines may result in apparent summation differences between tonnes, grade and contained metal content. All Mineral Reserve estimates are inclusive of dilution and mining recovery factors. Contained ounces (oz) are troy ounces. COG is cut-off grade. NSR is net smelter return. All amounts in US$ unless otherwise specified. Stockpiled material is treated as Proven Mineral Reserves. See Technical Reports filed under Capstone’s profile on SEDAR for further information.

1. John Marek, PE, SME-RM, of Independent Mining Consultants, Inc., is an independent Qualified Person responsible for the preparation of the Mineral Reserves estimate with an effective date of January 2016. Economic inputs to the block model were USD$2.75/lb per pound copper, USD$12.75/lb Molybdenum. Cut-off Grade – variable between 0.17% Cu to 0.18% Cu through the LOM. The minimum mill feed cut-off grade is 0.17% Cu, but in years where sufficient higher grade mill feed is available, the mill cut-off grade may be higher, resulting in material between the yearly mill cut-off grade and 0.18% being stockpiled. The additional 0.01% from 0.17% to 0.18% is to cover the additional cost of rehandling material from the stockpile to the mill. Material between 0.17% to 0.18% that is not fed directly to the mill is not stockpiled as it cannot pay for the mining re-handling cost at the price assumptions used. Proven mineral reserves include an additional 323 kt of stockpiled material not considered in the Pinto Valley Mine Life Extension - Phase 3 (PV3) Pre-Feasibility Study NI 43-101 Technical Report.

4. Santo Domingo Project Mineral Resources shown on 100% basis (Capstone’s share is 70%). David Rennie, P.Eng., of Rosco Postle Associates Inc. and an independent Qualified Person responsible for the preparation of the Mineral Resources estimates for the Santo Domingo Sur, Iris, and Iris Norte deposits, which have an effective date of August 31, 2012. Mineral Resource estimates for the Estrellita deposit have an effective date of October 30, 2007. Mineral Resources for the Santo Domingo Sur, Iris, and Iris Norte deposits are reported using a COG of 0.25% copper equivalent (CuEq). CuEq grades are calculated using average long term prices of US$3.50/lb Cu, US$1,500/oz Au and US$1.94/dmtu Fe (US$120/dmt conc. at 62% Fe). The CuEq equation is: Metal Value = Grade*Cm*R%/100*(Price-TCRC-Freight)*(100-Royalty)/100, where Cm is a constant to convert grade of metal to metal price units; R is metallurgical recovery and %Cu Equivalent = (Cu Value + Au Value + Fe Value)/(Cu Value per 1%Cu). An assessment of reasonable prospects for economic extraction for the Santo Domingo Sur, Iris, and Iris Norte deposits was performed using a Lerchs–Grossman pit shell that has the following assumptions: pit slopes averaging 45°; mining cost of US$1.19/t, processing cost of US$ 4.49/t; processing recovery of 85%; selling price of US$2.25/lb, and a selling cost of US$0.247/lb. At the 0.25% CuEq cut-off, all but 5% of the Mineral Resources were captured by the pit shell. On the basis of this result, it was concluded that there was little merit in restricting the Mineral Resources to those blocks contained only within the pit shell. Accordingly, the Mineral Resource inventory was reported in its entirety. Mineral Resources for the Estrellita deposit are reported using a 0.3% Cu COG.

5. Garth Kirkham, P.Geo, FGC, is an independent Qualified Person responsible for the preparation of the Mineral Resources estimates with an effective date of February 15, 2011. Mineral Resources are reported above a 1.5% Cu COG.
