This presentation contains, or incorporates by reference, “forward-looking information and statements” within the meaning of applicable Canadian securities

legislation and within the meaning of the U.S. Securities Act of 1933 and the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Forward-looking information may include,

but is not limited to, statements with respect to the future financial and operating performance of Atacama Pacific Gold Corporation and its subsidiaries, and

its mineral properties, the future price of gold and other metals, the estimation of mineral resources, results of exploration activities and studies, the

realization of mineral resource estimates, exploration expenditures, costs and timing of the development of new deposits, the acquisition of additional

mineral resources, the results of future exploration and drilling, timing of economic and scoping-level studies, costs and timing of future exploration of the

Projects, requirements for additional capital, management’s skill and knowledge with respect to the exploration and development of mining properties in

Chile in general and the relevance of that knowledge to the projects, government regulation of mining operations and exploration operations, timing and

receipt of approvals and licenses under mineral legislation, environmental risks and title disputes or claims and limitations of insurance coverage. In certain

cases, forward-looking statements can be identified by the use of words such as “plans”, “expects”, “is expected”, “budget”, “scheduled”, “estimates”,

“forecasts”, “intends”, “anticipates” or “believes”, or variations (including negative variations) of such words and phrases, or state that certain actions, events

or results “may”, “could”, “would”, “might” or “will” be taken, occur or be achieved.

Forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors which may cause the actual results, performance or

achievements of Atacama Pacific to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by the forward-looking

statements. Such factors include, among others, risks associated with the Company’s dependence on the Cerro Maricunga Project; the Company’s limited

operating history; general business, economic, competitive, political and social uncertainties; the actual results of current exploration activities; risks

associated with dependence on key members of management; conclusions of economic evaluations and studies; currency fluctuations (particularly in respect

of the Canadian dollar, the United States dollar and the Chilean peso and the rate at which each may be exchanged for the others); future prices of gold and

other metals; uncertainty in the estimation of mineral resources; exploration and development risks; infrastructure risks; inflation risks; defects and adverse

claims in the title to the projects; accidents, political instability, insurrection or war; labour and employment risks; changes in government regulations and

policies, including laws governing development, production, taxes, royalty payments, labour standards and occupational health, safety, toxic substances,

resource exploitation and other matters; delays in obtaining governmental approvals or financing or in the completion of development or construction

activities; insufficient insurance coverage; the risk that dividends may never be declared; liquidity and financing risks related to the global economic crisis, as

well as those factors discussed in the section entitled “Risk Factors” in the Company’s Prospectus dated October 29, 2010. Such forward-looking statements

are based on a number of material factors and assumptions, including: that contracted parties provide goods and/or services on the agreed timeframes; that

on-going contractual negotiations will be successful and progress and/or be completed in a timely manner; that no unusual geological or technical problems

occur; that plant and equipment work as anticipated and that there is no material adverse change in the price of gold. Although Atacama has attempted to

identify important factors that could cause actual actions, events or results to differ materially from those described in forward-looking statements, there may

be other factors that cause actions, events or results to differ from those anticipated, estimated or intended. Forward-looking statements contained herein

are made as of the date of this presentation. There can be no assurance that forward-looking statements will prove to be accurate, as actual results and future

events could differ materially from those anticipated in such statements. Accordingly, readers should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements

due to the inherent uncertainty therein.

• Column tests achieve gold recoveries of approximately 80% (19 mm)

− Potential to further optimize gold recoveries

• Gold deposit has low levels of deleterious elements

− Very low copper and silver levels

• Coarse crush (100 mm) column achieved gold recoveries of 77%

• Low grade columns (0.2 – 0.3 g/t Au) achieve outstanding recoveries of 78 to 82%

Attractive Capital Costs for Heap Leach Ops

Heap leach operations typically have low capital costs per tonne of capacity built

• average $6.6k / tpd of built capacity for heap leach oxide

• average $19.2k / tpd of built capacity for milling operations

Considering processing rate for Cerro Maricunga in the range of 60,000 tpd to 80,000 tpd
