Forward looking statements
Information set forth in this presentation may contain forward-looking statements. Forward-looking
statements are statements that relate to future, not past events. In this context, forward-looking
statements often address a company's expected future business and financial performance, and
often contain words such as "anticipate", "believe", "plan", "estimate", "expect", and "intend",
statements that an action or event "may", "might", "could", "should", or "will" be taken or occur, or
other similar expressions. By their nature, forward-looking statements involve known and unknown
risks, uncertainties and other factors which may cause our actual results, performance or
achievements, or other future events, to be materially different from any future results,
performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Such
factors include, among others, risks associated with project development; the need for additional
financing; operational risks associated with mining and mineral processing; fluctuations in gold
and other commodity prices; title matters; environmental liability claims and insurance; reliance on
key personnel; the absence of dividends; competition; dilution; the volatility of our common share
price and volume; and tax consequences to U.S. Shareholders. Forward-looking statements are
made based on management's beliefs, estimates and opinions on the date that statements are
made and the Company undertakes no obligation to update forward-looking statements if these
beliefs, estimates and opinions or other circumstances should change. Investors are cautioned
against attributing undue certainty to forward-looking statements.
Dr. Roger Steininger P. Geo, NuLegacy Gold’s Chief Operating Officer and a Qualified Person under
NI 43-101, has reviewed and approved dissemination of the content herein.

• Open in multiple directions
• Multiple gold bearing horizons.
• Delineation drilling has established a
near-surface oxidized gold deposit:
• Higher-grades in the North zone – e.g.
• 3.9 g/t over 41.2 meters (135 ft.)

The Iceberg:
• Gold bearing volcaniclastics.
• Oxide gold at 200 to 450 ft.
• Higher grade oxide gold at 500
to 750 ft.*
• 25.2 g/t gold over 15 ft., within 135
ft. of 3.9 g/t.
The Goldrush:
• Barren gravels and volcanics.
• Oxide gold at 700 to 1000 ft.
• High grade sulphide gold at
1,000 to 2,200 ft.
~ It is significantly cheaper to extract gold from near-surface
oxidized material than from deeper sulphide/refractory material. ~
The Iceberg’s advantage - stratigraphy
*Weban-6 & 7 were not deposited at the Iceberg,
thus Wenban-5 is much closer to surface.

1. Preliminary one hour "tumble leach in cyanide" tests conducted by American Assay Labs using previously assayed 30 gram sample
pulps from recent core drilling demonstrated high average recoveries of 74.5% (within a range of 64.4% to 89.2%) from oxidized Horse
Canyon-Wenban contact horizon material wherein most of the Iceberg deposit's gold is contained.
2. Nevada Bureau of Mines & Geology, June 2010.
3. The presence of gold resources on properties adjacent to or in close proximity with the Company's Iceberg deposit is not necessarily
indicative of the gold mineralization on the Iceberg deposit. To date, there are no known NI 43-101 compliant mineral resources or
reserves on the Iceberg deposit.
4. As reported by Barrick Gold Corporation as of December 31, 2013, the Goldrush deposit contained a resource of 423,000 ounces of
gold (3.1 million tons grading 0.137 oz/ton - measured), 9,537,000 ounces (72.5 million tons grading 0.132 oz/ton - indicated) and
5,555,000 ounces (39.5 million tons grading 0.141 oz/ton - inferred).
5. This information has been derived from publicly available sources which are believed to be accurate. However, NuLegacy has not
undertaken any independent investigations to verify or establish this information and readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance
thereon.
6. These figures are conceptual in nature and derived from a compilation of 149 historic and 34 NuLegacy drill holes in and around the
Iceberg deposit. To date, there has been insufficient exploration to define a mineral resource and it is uncertain if further exploration will
result in the target being delineated as a mineral resource. No preliminary economic assessment or other study has been completed and
geologically it is too speculative to apply economic considerations to the Iceberg deposit at this time.
7. These intercepts may not be true widths as there is insufficient data to calculate them at this time. Data verification of the analytical
results included a statistical analysis of the duplicates, standards and blanks to ensure accurate and verifiable results. *Historical assays
have not been confirmed and should not be relied upon. They are presented to provide an indication of the possible extent of the gold
mineralization in the Iceberg deposit and as a guide to future exploration.
8. Hole RHB-40 in the North Zone of the Iceberg deposit returned an assay result of 25.21 grams (0.8 ounces) per ton over 15 feet, within
135 feet of 3.91 grams per ton. See slide 13 above.
