#1COPPER NORTH MINING CORP. Transforming the Carmacks Cu-Au-Ag Project Yukon, Canada Doug Ramsey, President and CEO YUKON MINING ALLIANCE Nov 2019 TSX.V:COL#2COPPER NORTH MINING CORP. FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS This presentation includes certain forward-looking information or forward-looking statements for the purposes of applicable securities laws. These statements address future events and conditions and, as such, involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors, which may cause the actual results, performance or achievements to differ materially from those anticipated in such statements. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from the Company's expectations include, among others, the timeliness of regulatory approvals, the timing and success of future exploration and development activities, exploration and development risks, market prices, exploitation and exploration results, availability of capital and financing, general economic, market or business conditions, uninsured risks, regulatory changes, defects in title, availability of personnel, materials and equipment, unanticipated environmental impacts on operations and other exploration risks detailed herein and from time to time in the filings made by the Company with securities regulators. In making the forward-looking statements, the Company has applied several material assumptions including, but not limited to, the assumptions that the proposed exploration and development of the mineral projects will proceed as planned, market fundamentals will result in sustained metals and mineral prices, and any additional financing needed will be available on reasonable terms. The Company expressly disclaims any intention or obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise except as otherwise required by applicable securities legislation.

Transforming the Carmacks Project In the beginning (2011 for Copper North) ➤ When Copper North acquired the Carmacks property in 2011, the project was planned as a copper-only heap leach with a relatively short 7 year mine life In particular, the heap leaching plan ignored the precious metals in the resource - 0.456 g/t Au and 4.58 g/t Ag - the recovery of which has the potential to improve overall project economics if brought into the project ➤ The precious metals would not be recoverable if the resource was first leached for copper recovery By early 2014, it was clear to management that a different metallurgical process needed to be considered in order to bring the precious metals into the project plan. Our work since then has been directed to incorporating precious metal recovery in the process. TSX.V: COL Before the Transformation | 8#9▲ COPPER NORTH MINING CORP.

The area is located on a major tectonic break between the Stikinia and Quesnellia terranes. Conglomerates of the Tanglefoot fm. are present in the neighbouring Whitehorse Trough, indicating rapid Early to Mid Jurassic uplift and through-going crustal-scale faults that may have acted as a path-way for significant fluid-flow from deeper crustal levels. The mafic volcanic rocks (greenstones) are chemically reactive, and form a good rheological contrast to the granodiorites. High potential for vein gold, and gold-copper mineralization.

Airborne magnetics indicate a large-scale dilational, NNW-trending jog along the dextral NW-SE strike-slip fault. ➤ Locating dilational-jogs or 'blow-outs' may lead to the discovery of substantially thicker vein widths with the potential to be part of a significant system of mineralization. ➤ Mineralization has been reported from every claim along the faulted contact for ~5,000 metres.

D. Cairnes, 1909, from Selected Field Reports of the Geological Survey of Canada, 1898 to 1933, Memoir 284, H. S. Bostock. TSX.V: COL Bonanza King Geology | 30#31▲ COPPER NORTH MINING CORP. BONANZA KING – Historic mine, early 1900s Production history: 13,860 lbs (6,280 kg) hand-cobbed ore at 6.09% Cu, 10.3 g/t Au, 65.4 g/t Ag. ~50 m of drifting and a ~10 m shaft from development work in 1917. SPSWAY 195 Adit Adit 2 Adit 1 Exploration history: Old-timers hand-dug trenches that were unable to penetrate the shallow overburden that covers much of the property. ➤ The property has never been explored with modern methods. TSX.V: COL Carmacks Geology | 31#32▲ COPPER NORTH MINING CORP. Value Added - So Far! Carmacks Cu-Au-Ag Project Progressive Transformation Re-engineered process – two-stage agitated tank leaching allows recovery of oxide copper and precious metals Improves estimated project economics compared to recovery of copper only 4-hour copper leach time estimated to improve cash-flow, compared to 200+ days for heap leaching ➤ Potentially a very low cost copper producer - Cash cost of copper production estimated at US$1.08/lb after precious metal credits ➤ Exploration to extend mine life, TSX.V: COL Increased Oxide M+I resource by 43% over pre-2015 resource • Increased resource not yet incorporated in economic analysis Known mineralised zones and geophysical anomalies remaining to be explored Increased Sulphide M+I resource by 85%, resource remains open at depth along strike Added the highly prospective Bonanza King claims Environmental Sustainability – integrated as a core design criterion - Green energy metal buyers want a sustainably produced metal source Progressive Transformation | 32#33▲ COPPER NORTH MINING CORP. Feasibility Engineering Carmacks Project Continuing to Build Value – Next Steps - Advance metallurgical process engineering to feasibility level (Q4 2019/Q1 2020), focusing on: reducing process plant capital costs (target 8% CAPEX reduction); and, optimizing the process to minimize reagent requirements (target 4% process cost reduction). Update costing on existing permitted project designs (mining and waste rock management, infrastructure) Environmental and Permitting Project is partially permitted with a Quartz Mining License (QML) for the previous heap leach plan - previous mine plan, waste rock management plan, access road upgrading designs in the PEA remain the same as those covered by the QML - further environmental assessment is required to incorporate the revised metallurgical plan and tailings management in an updated QML ➤ Submission of updated Project Description for YESAB review (H1 2020 submission with expected approval H1 2021). ➤ New Quartz Mining Licence to replace current QML (H1 2021). ➤ Type A Water Licence (following YESAB review; H1 2022). Financing Seeking a joint-venture partner for the Project ➤ Continued equity raises in pace with workplan - also will consider a small royalty Consider metal offtake opportunities for cathode copper.
