Qualified Person Statement

Page 3: Millrock Resources - Corporate Presentation - March 2014

This presentation includes “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the United States Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. All statement, other than statements of historical fact, included herein including, without limitation, statement regarding anticipated completion of engineering studies, potential results of drilling and assays, timing of permitting, construction and production and other milestones, and Millrock’s future operating or financial performance are forward-looking statements. Estimates of reserves and resources area also forward-looking statements in that they involve estimates of the mineralization that would be encountered, based on interpretation of drilling results and certain assumptions, if a deposit were developed and mined. Forward-looking statements involve various risks and uncertainties. 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. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from Millrock’s expectations include financing in the debt and capital markets; uncertainties involved in the interpretation of drilling results and geological tests and the estimation of reserves and resources; the need for cooperation of government agencies and Native groups in the development of Millrock’s properties; the need to obtain permits and governmental approvals; risks of operations such as accidents, equipment breakdowns, bad weather, non-compliance with environmental and permit requirements, unanticipated variation in geological structures, ore grades or recovery rates; unexpected cost increases, fluctuations in metal prices and currency exchange rates, and other risks and uncertainties disclosed in Millrock’s Annual Information Form for the current year, filed with the Canadian securities and regulatory authorities, and in other Millrock reports and documents filed with applicable securities and regulatory authorities from time to time. Millrock’s forward-looking statements reflect the beliefs, opinions and projections on the date the statements are made. Millrock assumes no obligation to update forward-looking statements of management beliefs, opinions, or other factors should they change.

Project Generator Business Model

Pure Exploration, Early Stage Discovery Specialists

Key Investment Highlights

Early stage exploration has the highest risk, but also the highest potential reward

Page 5: Millrock Resources - Corporate Presentation - March 2014

Discovery success creates tremendous increases in share value

Few discoveries are made – risk is high

PGM increases exposure to discovery and mitigates risk by:

Developing multiple projects

Forming multiple joint ventures

Highest risk money is the first round of drilling is funded by JV partners

Millrock shareholder’s money is used for project generation

“Minimize risk but keep shareholders exposed to the

rewards of discovery.”

Brien Lundin – Gold Newsletter (6/28/2012)"Millrock continues to strike quality joint venture deals to explore its large stable of projects in Alaska and Arizona. . .this prospect generator consistently attracts quality joint venture partners like Inmet Mining Corp. and Vale Mining, and that fact alone speaks volumes about Millrock Resources' ability to find and fund projects of merit in its core exploration areas.”

Trader Tracks – Roger Wiegand (5/1/2011)“Capitalizing on its Project Generator Model, Millrock has tremendous potential to create substantial shareholder value through the discovery of world-class deposits.”

Coverage

Page 52: Millrock Resources - Corporate Presentation - March 2014

Jay Taylor (5/11/2012)"The company has some very large companies as joint venture partners, which I always like to see, because the big guys are looking for major deposits; major deposits make small market cap companies' share prices fly off the charts.”

Shane Lasley – North of 60 Mining (6/24/2012)“The project-generator model is allowing the company to capitalize on its exploration expertise and first-hand geological knowledge of Alaska and southeastern Arizona. . .and Millrock's skillful execution of the project generator model allows it cover the larger portion of its overhead through the collection of fees from its partners."
