Highlights: A Successfully Managed Company

AZX to Buy Murgor (MGR) Resources: in a deal valued at$2.7 million, Alexandria will obtain a solid Cu-Au-Zn-Ag resource inManitoba together with strategic exploration properties in Ontarioand Quebec

Recent $500,000 financing at 100% premium to market

Discovered Quebec’s Next Gold Mine: Sold Its West Zone Au-Cu deposit to Agnico Eagle in 2014 for $5 million plus 2% NSR

Lowest Costs of Discovery: With 130,000 m of drilling since 2007,all-up cash costs of $15 per ounce of gold resource discovered,including 69 cents per oz of gold discovered at the West Zone

3 Near-surface gold deposits in a well-known and prolific miningdistrict, Val d’Or, Quebec, within 20 km of 5 undercapacity mills

Agnico Eagle owns 8% of AZX; IAMGOLD and Teck each own 3%

Importance of the Murgor Transaction

A Buyer’s Market: ability to purchase Au-Cu-Zn-Ag resources at very low prices in preparation for next mining market upturn --AZX’s all-up costs of discovery, approx. $15/oz Au equivalent, lowest in the World

AZX’s costs of acquiring this asset, approx. $3.50/oz of Au equivalent

AZX Adds Advanced Projects in Mining Camps: both Val d’Or, Quebec, and Flin Flon/Snow Lake, Manitoba have rich mining traditions and well-established infrastructure

Project Synergies in other Mining Camps: Both AZX and MGR have projects in other camps such as Matachewan, Ontario and Chibougamau, Quebec

Succesful Management Enlarges Resources Under Its Control:Company with track record of discovery and growth increases resources

Shareholders obtain more exposure to metals at low cost
