FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS This presentation may contain forward-looking statements including management's assessments of future plans and operations, expectations of future production, cash flow and earnings. These statements are based on current expectations that involve a number of risks and uncertainties, which could cause actual results to differ materially from those anticipated. These risks include, but are not limited to, the risks associated with the mining and exploration industry (e.g. operational risks in development, exploration and production; delays or changes in plans with respect to exploration or development projects or capital expenditures; the uncertainty of reserve estimates; the uncertainty of estimates and projections relating to production). QUALIFIED PERSONS Mindoro s exploration programs are prepared and/or designed and carried out under the supervision of Tony Climie, P.Geo., who is a Qualified Person as defined by National Instrument 43-101 and is a Competent Person as defined by the JORC Code, and who has reviewed and verified the pertinent disclosure of exploration related technical information contained in this news release. Mr. Climie is an executive and a director of Mindoro and is a member of the Alberta Professional Engineers, Geologists and Geophysicists Association. Mr. Climie has more than five years of experience which is relevant to the style of mineralization and type of deposit under consideration and to the activity which he has undertaken. Mr. Climie has consented to the release of the pertinent exploration related technical information in the form and context in which it appears. Boyd Willis, FAUSIMM, who is a Qualified Person as defined by National Instrument 43-101, and a Competent Person as defined by the JORC Code, has reviewed and verified the disclosure of a development nature contained in this news release.
