Forward-Looking Information

This presentation contains "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. This information and these statements, referred to herein

as “forward-looking statements”, are made as of the date of this presentation and the Company does not intend, and does not assume any

obligation, to update these forward-looking statements, except as required by law.

Forward-looking statements relate to future events or future performance and reflect current expectations or beliefs regarding future events and

include, but are not limited to, statements with respect to: (i) the amount of mineral resources and exploration targets; (ii) the amount of future

production over any period; (iii) net present value and internal rates of return of the mining operation; (iv) capital costs and operating costs; (v) mine

expansion potential and expected mine life; (vi) expected time frames for completion of permitting and regulatory approvals and making a

production decision; (vii) future exploration plans; (viii) future market prices for rough diamonds; and (ix) sources of and anticipated financing

requirements. Any statements that express or involve discussions with respect to predictions, expectations, beliefs, plans, projections, objectives,

assumptions or future events or performance (often, but not always, using words or phrases such as “expects”, “anticipates”, “plans”, “projects”,

“estimates”, “assumes”, “intends”, “strategy”, “goals”, “objectives” or variations thereof or stating that certain actions, events or results “may”,

“could”, “would”, “might” or “will” be taken, occur or be achieved, or the negative of any of these terms and similar expressions) are not statements

of historical fact and may be forward-looking statements.

Forward-looking statements are made based upon certain assumptions and other important factors that, if untrue, could cause the actual results,

performances or achievements of Stornoway to be materially different from future results, performances or achievements expressed or implied by

such statements. Such statements and information are based on numerous assumptions regarding present and future business strategies and the

environment in which Stornoway will operate in the future, including the price of diamonds, anticipated costs and ability to achieve goals. Certain

important factors that could cause actual results, performances or achievements to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements

include, but are not limited to: (i) estimated completion date for the Environmental and Social Impact Assessment; (ii) required capital investment

and estimated workforce requirements; (iii) estimates of net present value and internal rates of return; (iv) receipt of regulatory approvals on

acceptable terms within commonly experienced time frames; (v) the assumption that a production decision will be made, and that decision will be

positive; (vi) anticipated timelines for the commencement of mine production; (vii) anticipated timelines related to the Route 167 extension and the

impact on the development schedule at Renard; (viii) anticipated timelines for community consultations and the conclusion of an Impact and

Benefits Agreement; (ix) market prices for rough diamonds and the potential impact on the Renard Project’s value; and (x) future exploration plans

and objectives. Additional risks are described in Stornoway's most recently filed Annual Information Form, annual and interim MD&A, and other

disclosure documents available under the Company’s profile at: www.sedar.com.

When relying on our forward-looking statements to make decisions with respect to Stornoway, investors and others should carefully consider the

foregoing factors and other uncertainties and potential events. Stornoway does not undertake to update any forward-looking statement, whether

written or oral, that may be made from time to time by Stornoway or on our behalf, except as required by law.

Renard’s Diamonds Valuation Conducted by WWW International Diamond Consultants Ltd. May 8th-13th, 2011

Renard kimberlite pipes have a diamond population with a coarse size distribution

and high proportion of large white gems. Lynx and Hibou kimberlite dykes have a

finer distribution of browner stones.

99% by weight gem/near-gem quality. 1% industrial quality boart.

Coarse size distribution: potential for significant “Specials”, not accounted for in the

current resource work. (Three to six 50-100ct stones and one to two +100ct stones

every 100,000 carats.)

Renard is Continuing to Grow Renard 65 Bulk Sample: Expansion in the Project Reserve

Stornoway commenced a 5,000 tonne bulk sample at

Renard 65 in July 2012.

The objective is the recovery of a 1,000 carat parcel of

diamonds for valuation, to allow conversion of Inferred

Resources to Reserve.

Renard 65 currently contains:

• 3.7 mcarats of Inferred Mineral Resources

(12.9mtonnes at 29 carats per hundred tonnes)

• 6.8 to 13.7 mcarats of Exploration Target (29.5 to 41.6

mtonnes at 23 to 33 cpht)

Renard 65 has a good potential to return large diamonds.

Results are expected by year end. Valuation Q1 2013

Permitting On-Track for Completion in 2012

Renard falls under the environmental protection

regime of the James Bay and Northern Québec

Agreement (JBNQA) and the Canadian

Environmental Assessment Act.

Permitting Milestones:

• December 2011: Filing of the Renard Environmental

and Social Impact Assessment (ESIA)

• June/August 2012: Successful public hearings in

Mistissini and Chibougamau

• October 2012: Mining Lease Issued by the Quebec

Ministry of Natural Resources

Renard is on track for the receipt of its Certificate

of Authorization within 2012.

The Renard ESIA describes a limited-footprint

project with modest impacts on the local

environment, all of which are well within existing

Québec and federal standards.

Stornoway has published the complete ESIA, the

Environmental Baseline Study, and the project

Closure Plan online.

The Renard Diamond Project is situated close to

the Cree Nation of Mistissini (CNM).

In March 2012 Stornoway concluded an Impacts

and Benefits Agreement, the “Mecheshoo

Agreement”, with the CNM and the Grand

Council of the Crees (EI).

The Mecheshoo Agreement provides for

employment and business opportunities for the

Crees, fosters cultural, environmental and social

protection, and provides for the Crees’

participation in the project’s long term financial

success.

From left: Chief Richard Shecapio, of the Cree Nation of

Mistissini, Grand Chief Matthew Coon-Come, of the Crees of

Eeyou Itschee, and Matt Manson, CEO of Stornoway, in

Mistissini on March 27th, 2012, on the occasion of the signing of

the Mecheshoo Agreement.

“Stornoway has demonstrated an immense openness

and has been willing to adapt the project in a manner

that respects the Crees of Mistissini, our interests, our

values, our culture and our way of life…At this point, we

can assure without a doubt that this project has a clear

social acceptability from Mistissini”

Almost all rough diamond production forecasts show flat or declining

production long term. Rough production may not reach 2008 levels in

carat terms again.

No large scale diamond mine has been discovered since the

discovery of EKATI and Diavik in the early 1990s. New production

from projects under development such as Renard is not expected to

materially impact overall supply.

Financial Analysis Renard Diamond Valuation. Conducted by WWW May 9th to 13th 2011

1The Renard Feasibility Study of November 2011, consistent with the NI 43-101 compliant Mineral Resource of January 2011, utilizes a higher diamond price based on an analysis of

diamond breakage and poor plant recovery of the Renard 4 valuation sample, which is $164/carat. All samples utilize a +0.85mm (+1 DTC) cutoff.

Scenario 2 (Alternative): Utilizing an R4 only Size Frequency Model $112 $121 $105

WWW determine High and Minimum sensitivities on their Base Case diamond price model. WWW state that

it is unlikely that an actual diamond price achieved for each kimberlite body upon production would fall below

the “Minimum” sensitivity, but it is possible that the actual diamond price achieved may be higher than the

“High” sensitivity, which is not a maximum price.

The Feasibility Study Base Case diamond price of US$182/carat for Renard 2 and 3 and US$164/carat for

Renard 4 derives from a value modeling approach that assumes a single diamond size distribution in the

three kimberlites.

An alternative interpretation, that each kimberlite’s diamond population is unique and is correctly represented

by its diamond sample, yields diamond price models of US$208/carat for Renard 2, US$165/carat for Renard

3 and US$112/carat for Renard 4.

Financial Analysis Renard Diamond Valuation Sensitivities

Page 38: Stornoway Diamonds (TSX.V: SWY.TO) Investor Update: The Creation and Growth of a Mineral Resource at Renard: Québec’s First Diamond Mine

38

This “Alternative” diamond price model is highly accretive to the project’s valuation given the dominance of

Renard 2 in the mine plan. The interpretation of similarity in the diamond populations is the more

conservative approach.

A real-terms diamond price growth factor of 2.5% per annum has been applied between 2012 and 2025.

This is consistent with well constrained rough diamond supply and demand forecasts and industry best-

practice. WWW have advised that Stornoway’s assumptions on diamond price and diamond price growth

are “reasonable in the context of the overall supply and demand environment” of the diamond industry.

The project shows strong sensitivity to future diamond price growth.
