1934, as amended and the Private Securities Litigation Reform
Act of 1995. All statements other than statements of historical
fact herein including, without limitation, statements regarding
potential resources and reserves, exploration results, production
rates and future plans and objectives, are forward-looking
statements that involve various risks and uncertainties. Such
forward-looking statements include, without limitation, (i)
estimates and projections of future gold production and cash
operating costs, (ii) estimates of savings or cost reductions, (iii)
estimates related to financial performance, including cash flow
and capital expenditures, (iv) estimates and projections of
reserves and resources, (v)estimates and opinions regarding
geologic and mineralization interpretation and (vi) estimates of
exploration investment and scope of exploration programs.
There can be no assurance that such statements will prove to
be accurate, and actual results and future events could differ
materially from those anticipated in such statements, in
particular the estimates do not include input cost increases or
gold price variations that could occur in future. Important factors
that could cause actual results to differ materially from the
companies’ expectations are disclosed in documents filed from
time to time with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission
(SEC). Forward-looking statements are based on the estimates
and opinions of management on the date the statements are

Form on file with the SEC (www.sec.gov) as well as the
companies' other regulatory filings.
Cautionary Note to U.S. Investors ‐ The U.S. Securities and
Exchange Commission permits U. S. mining companies , in their
filings with the SEC, to disclose only those mineral deposits that
a company can economically and legally extract or produce. We
use certain terms in this presentation, such as “measured”,
“indicated”, and “inferred” “resources”, which the SEC guidelines
strictly prohibit U.S. registered companies from including in their

INDEPENDENCE PROJECT OVERVIEW
• Located in Lander County, Nevada
• Total historic drilling: 241 drill holes over
92,680 feet (included in Cibolan Gold’s
geological modeling)
• Cibolan Gold has drilled, logged, and
modeled more than 40,000 feet from 128
RC drill holes and 3 core holes
• Multiple deposits at the property
Near surface epithermal system
Deep, high-grade underground target
• Numerous high grade intercepts including
several multi-ounce 5 foot intercepts
• Mineralization open in multiple directions

MINING IN NEVADA
• Nevada is ranked among the Top 10
most favorable mining jurisdictions
in the world
• Nevada is responsible for nearly
80% of annual gold production in
the U.S.
• Nevada is the 2nd largest silver
producer in the U.S.
• Cibolan Gold’s Independence
Project is located in the Battle
Mountain-Cortez Gold Trend in
Lander County

www.Nevada-Goldmine.com
SURROUNDING MINES
• Encircled by several large scale
historic deposits – Fortitude,
Marigold, McCoy/Cove, Phoenix,
and Sunshine
• The Fortitude Mine’s historic
production totaled 2.2 million
ounces of gold and 9.7 million
ounces of silver
• Fortitude is considered to be
among the most lucrative mines
in Nevada history
* The historic Fortitude Mine lies only 4,000 feet northeast of the Independence Mine.

www.Nevada-Goldmine.com
SURROUNDING MINES:
• The Phoenix Mine, owned and
operated by a major gold producer,
flanks the Independence Project on
three sides
• Phoenix Mine annually produces
over 250,000 ounces of gold and
900,000 ounces of silver
• The property contains proven and
probable reserves worth in excess of
$20 billion
• The Independence Project sits atop
the same trend as the Phoenix Mine
* The Phoenix Mine also produces 22 million pounds of copper each year
February-March 2015

www.Nevada-Goldmine.com
PROPERTY HISTORY
• Independence Mine was
intermittently in production
from 1938 through 1987
• Historic production: 11,000
ounces of gold and 750,000
ounces of silver
• Historic grades: 0.17 ounces
gold per ton of and 11.53
ounces of silver per ton
• Cibolan Gold Corporation
acquired the Independence
Project in 2005

NEAR SURFACE EPITHERMAL DEPOSIT
• Shallow, open pit mineable target
• Measured & Indicated resource:
223,300 ounces of gold; 3,784,400
ounces of silver
• All 131 Cibolan Gold’ drill holes
encountered mineralization
• Strike length of over 3,000 feet and
depth of 400 feet
• Cibolan Gold is on track to
complete a Preliminary Economic
Assessment by the end of 2015
February-March 2015
OTC:CIB
G
www.Nevada-Goldmine.com
DEEP SKARN DEPOSIT
• High-grade, gold rich deep
underground target
• From a limited number of drill
holes, an Inferred resource of
796,000 ounces of gold already
has been established
• Zone of mineralization is more
than 1,400 feet wide and 3,400
feet long
• Potential for multi-million ounce
gold resource
February-March 2015
OTC:CIB
G
www.Nevada-Goldmine.com
GOLD COPPER PORPHYRY TREND
• Underlies the Independence Project’s deep skarn target
• One deep drill hole intercepted 2 oz/t gold
• This zone appears to be part of the highly prolific Battle
Mountain-Eureka Trend, responsible for 23 million ounces
of historic gold production
• The Battle Mountain-Eureka Trend could contain even
greater resource potential than the parallel running Carlin
Trend, which has produced over 180 million ounces of gold
• Cibolan Gold is planning to conduct additional deep drilling
that could substantially expand the Independence Project’s
resource base
OTC:CIB
G
www.Nevada-Goldmine.com
WHY NOW
Cibolan recently undertook a fresh review of the data
• Why: Identify targets where we can mine 4 to 5 million tons
grading 0.05 ounces per ton to put on the preliminarily
engineered leach pad
• Incorporate known data from other properties in area
• Focused on near surface, near term production opportunities
OTC:CIB
G
www.Nevada-Goldmine.com
WHAT’S NEW
Results of the Review
• Identified range front fault system along western edge of current drilling
• Several holes with multi ounce intercepts drilled west of the fault
• Tenth ounce or greater intercepts in other holes were on trend
• Identified other targets on the property – including High Grade NE Structural Zone
• Designed drilling plan to expand current resources; potentially identify up to 2.0
million tons averaging up to 0.30 ounce per ton (20 times our current average grade)
Recommendations
• Re-examine geologic model in current resource area – focus on structural controls,
emphasize high-grade potential
• Evaluate Range Front system by drilling additional core and reverse circular holes
• Evaluate other identified targets areas with further mapping, sampling and drilling
• Complete PEA using revised geologic model resulting form Range Front and other
target drilling
