New major risk - Revenue and earnings growth Earnings have declined by 0.3% per year over the past 5 years. This is considered a major risk. Ultimately, shareholders want to see a good return on their investment and that generally comes from sharing in the company's profits. If profits are declining over an extended period, then in most cases the share price will decline over time unless the company can turn around its fortunes. A trend of falling earnings can be very difficult to turn around. If the company is well already established it may also be a sign the company has matured and is in decline. In addition, if the company pays dividends it will also likely need to reduce or cut them, striking a dual blow to total shareholder returns. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risks Earnings have declined by 0.3% per year over the past 5 years. Revenue is less than US$1m. Minor Risk Market cap is less than US$100m (CA$100.5m market cap, or US$73.9m). Announcement • Apr 21

New minor risk - Market cap size The company's market capitalization is less than US$100m. Market cap: CA$135.1m (US$97.4m) This is considered a minor risk. Companies with a small market capitalization are most likely businesses that have not yet released a product to market or are simply a very small company without a wide reach. Either way, risk is elevated with these companies because there is a chance the product may not come to fruition or the company's addressable market or demand may not be as large as expected. In addition, if the company's size is the main factor, it is less likely to have many investors and analysts following it and scrutinizing its performance and outlook. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risk Revenue is less than US$1m. Minor Risk Market cap is less than US$100m (CA$135.1m market cap, or US$97.4m).

West Vault Mining Inc. Announces 51% IRR Pre-Feasibility Study West Vault Mining Inc. announced the results of an independent NI 43-101 Pre-feasibility Study prepared by USA-based engineering firm RESPEC Company LLC for West Vault's 100% owned Hasbrouck Gold Project located near Tonopah, Nevada. West Vault intends to file the Technical Report on SEDAR (www.sedar.com) within 45 days of this news release. The Technical Report updates a September 2016 Pre-feasibility Study ("2016 PFS"), necessary because of the possible effect of increased capital costs, operating costs, and metal prices on project economics, and their combined effects on Mineral Resource and Mineral Reserve. After completion of the Technical Report, it has been determined that the mine plan, mineral processing, and Mineral Resource and Mineral Reserve Statements are substantially unchanged from the 2016 PFS. Exploration and expansion potential on the fully permitted project is highlighted. The Technical Report was prepared by largely the same team that prepared the 2016 PFS, headed by RESPEC of Rapid City, South Dakota, with contributions from Kappes, Cassidy & Associates, Reno, NewFields Mining Design & Technical Services, Jorgensen Engineering & Technical Services, and Westland Engineering & Environmental Services. The Hasbrouck Gold Project consists of the Three Hills and Hasbrouck Deposits plus a large land package, located near Tonopah, Nevada. All dollar values presented in this news release are in U.S. dollars. Regarding expansion potential, there are a number of significant gold intercepts located proximal to current Mineral Resources, on strike from and below the proposed open pits that are not incorporated into the Technical Report Mineral Resource model. These intercepts show the potential to increase and extend the known Mineral Resource on West Vault's property. The Technical Report estimates a modest initial capital of USD 66 million for the Phase 1 Three Hills Mine. The Phase 2 Hasbrouck Mine is estimated to cost USD 123 million, and this money is planned to come from free cash flow generated at the Three Hills Mine. The Technical Report does not include mineralized material at the Company's Hill of Gold property located between Three Hills Mine and Hasbrouck Mine. Board Change • Nov 17

West Vault Mining Inc Completes Study on Increased "Green" Mining at Hasbrouck Gold Project West Vault Mining Inc. has completed a positive in-house study to reduce carbon dioxide ("CO2") emissions at the Hasbrouck Gold Project, Nevada. This study shows that CO2 emissions can be significantly reduced by: Using grid power instead of liquified natural gas-generated power ("LNG") as planned at the phase one mine ("Three Hills Mine"); Using primary electric mining equipment instead of diesel equipment at the phase two mine ("Hasbrouck Mine"); and Using electric power instead of diesel for drying kilns in the central processing plant. The study indicates these changes to be feasible and would reduce power-related emissions from about 200,000 tons CO2 to about 66,000 tons CO2 over life of mine. NV Energy has recently confirmed their ability to supply the necessary additional electric power, opening the way for a more detailed study. NV Energy currently supplies about 25% of its energy from renewable sources and is mandated to supply 50% from renewable sources by 2030 and to aim for 100% by 2050. The proposed changes are expected to increase initial capital marginally and will tend to lower operating costs, with progressively greater operating cost savings as cap-and-trade systems become more widely implemented. Electric primary mining equipment in the form of blast-hole drills and shovels is currently available at comparable costs to diesel equipment, and nearly all major haul truck OEMs are developing electric haul trucks, expected to be commercially available within the next few years. Electric secondary mining equipment such as dozers, graders, water-trucks, explosives trucks, and pick-ups is expected to be available in electric form in the not-too-distant future, which would further reduce emissions by 24,000 tons CO2.

West Vault Enters USD 7.3 Million Gold and Silver Stream Agreement with Sprott West Vault Mining Inc. announced the execution of a definitive Purchase and Sale Agreement (the "Stream Agreement") between the company and Sprott Private Resource Streaming and Royalty Corp. ("Sprott") for 1.41% of all refined gold and silver (the "1.41% Stream") to be produced for the life of mine from the Hasbrouck Gold Project, located southwest of Tonopah, Nevada and comprised of the 100% owned Hasbrouck property, Three Hills property and the Hill of Gold property (together the "Hasbrouck Gold Project"). Under the terms of the Stream Agreement, Sprott is to pay the Company (a) an advance purchase deposit of $6.0 million (the "Advance Deposit"); and (b) an additional deposit of $1.0 million (the "Additional Deposit" and collectively with the Advance Deposit, the "Deposit") within 10 days of the Company announcing a Board-approved construction decision for the Hasbrouck Gold Project. Sprott may then elect to add the Hill of Gold property to the property covered by the Stream Agreement by paying to the Company (c) a final amount, to be added to the Deposit, of $300,000 within 60 days of paying the Additional Deposit. A cash transfer price payable to the Company upon delivery of refined gold and silver to Sprott has been set at 20% of the market value per ounce of metal, as quoted by the London Bullion Market Association on the date of delivery. The balance of the market value per ounce will be applied as a credit against the Deposit until the Deposit is fully utilized. Thereafter the price of the metals paid to the Company will be 20% of the market value thereof. The permitted Hasbrouck Gold Project is one of only a few shovel-ready gold projects in the US South- west, and not including the Hill of Gold property, hosts an estimated 762,000 ounces of Proven and Probable gold Reserves1 and 10,569,000 ounces of Proven and Probable silver Reserves1. At a gold price of $1,800, an independent Pre-feasibility Study completed in 20161 (the "2016 PFS") estimated an after-tax IRR of 92% and a $295 Million NPV(5). The Company believes additional mineral resources may be delineated adjacent to the known deposit areas by further exploration drilling during construction and operation.
