3 Company Profile TSXV-listed mineral exploration company Active solely in Peru since 2003 Teck funding a 6,000-metre drill program at Alicia (copper-gold) in 2012 Three other projects in Peru: Ø Caribe (copper-moly), option to earn 100% Ø Letra Rumi South (copper-silver), 100% owned, drill targets selected Ø Culebrilla (gold-silver), 100% owned 3

4 Project Locations Alicia and Caribe Ø 500 km SE of Lima Letra Rumi South and Culebrilla Ø 250 km N of Lima 4

5 Early stage exploration Ø Highest potential reward Focus on Peru Strategy Ø Favourable geology, economy, mining culture Add value through exploration Alicia (copper-gold) top priority in 2012 Generative program continuing 5

9 Alicia Project, 2011 drilling 2,000-metre reconnaissance drill program All 15 holes intersected Cu-Au mineralization Results include: Ø 21.2m true 1.27% Cu, 0.13 g/t Au (ALC ended in mineraliza@on at 88.7m core length) Ø 0.33% Cu, 0.04 g/t Au (ALC10-08) Ø 0.29% Cu, 0.03 g/t Au (ALC11-16) Ø 0.16% Cu, 0.02 g/t Au (ALC11-17) 9

10 Alicia combined soil & rock geochemistry 3.6 km 10

11 Two key thresholds passed at Alicia 1. Is the system mineralized? ü 2011 drilling confirms robust values 2. Is there potential for size? ü 800m long north-west south-east trending mineralized zone in porphyry ü Soil sampling identified a broad copper anomaly defined by >1,000ppm Cu (0.1%) over more than 3.4 km 11

12 Teck Option Agreement Teck made $600,000 equity investment in Strait at $0.20/Unit To earn 45% Teck must spend $4 million over 2 years, plus exercise three million warrants at 25 (if in 2012) or 35 (if in 2013) To earn 65% Teck must spend a further $6 million and make cash payments to Strait Teck earns 75% after spending $30 million in total or completing pre-feasibility study 1

13 Plans for Alicia 6,000-metre drill program in 2012 Ø Test porphyry potential based on results of airborne geophysics and geochemistry Ø Initial 15 holes to be drilled on sections spaced 200 metres apart Ø Six holes in the central zone Ø Average depth metres. 13

14 Caribe Project copper values 14

15 Caribe Project exploration plans Detailed mapping and sampling of porphyry and brecciated porphyry outcrops Soil sampling on southeastern portion which is under cover Ground geophysics induced polarization (IP) and magnetics Establish drill targets initially on enriched copper zone 15

16 Letra Rumi South Overview 9-sq-km property Copper target with gold, silver values Widespread copper mineralization at surface Average 0.1% Cu from 182 samples with up to 4.4% Cu, 2.5 g/t Au and 77.4 g/t Ag IP suggests depth potential Drill targets selected 16

17 Culebrilla Sampling Highlights Caballo 2.8 g/t Au, 69 g/t Ag Metal Punta 2.2 g/t Au, 44 g/t Ag Quebrada Ancush 7.5 g/t Au, 364 g/t Ag El Plano 402 g/t Ag, 1.8% Pb Culebrilla 10.0 g/t Au, 200 g/t Ag Alalaj 14.4 g/t Au, 1220 g/t Ag 2.0 % Cu Letra Rumi North 847 g/t Ag, 8.4 % Cu, 1.9 g/t Au, 1 Las Pampas 2.3 % Pb, 1.3 % Zn 17 Note: Grab samples shown with selected results 17 17
