This presentation is subject to change without notice and does not purport to be comprehensive or contain all the information necessary to evaluate the subject matter discussed herein.
Accordingly, this document should not form the basis of, and should not be relied upon in connection with, any investment in Aura Minerals Inc. (the “Company”). This document is
provided for general informational purposes only. The data included in this presentation regarding industry size, trends and prices are based on a variety of sources, third party studies
and surveys, industry and general publications and our knowledge and experience in the industry in which we operate. While we believe such data to be accurate as of the date hereof,
this information may prove to be inaccurate. As a result, you should be aware that industry data included in this presentation, and estimates and beliefs based on that data, may not be
reliable. We have not independently verified the industry data included in this offering memorandum and cannot guarantee their accuracy or completeness.
Forward-Looking Information. Certain information contained or incorporated by reference in this presentation, including any information as to our strategy, projects, plans or future
financial or operating performance, constitutes "forward-looking statements”. All statements, other than statements of historical fact, are forward-looking statements. The words “believe”,
"expect", “anticipate”, “contemplate”, “target”, “plan”, “intend”, “continue”, “budget”, “estimate”, “may”, “will”, “schedule” and similar expressions identify forward looking statements.
Forward-looking statements are necessarily based upon a number of estimates and assumptions that, while considered reasonable by the company, are inherently subject to significant
business, economic and competitive uncertainties and contingencies. Known and unknown factors could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking
statements. Such factors include, but are not limited to: fluctuations in the spot and forward price of gold and copper or certain other commodities (such as silver, diesel fuel and
electricity); changes in national and local government legislation, taxation, controls, regulations, expropriation or nationalization of property and political or economic developments in
Canada and other jurisdictions in which the Company does or may carry on business in the future; diminishing quantities or grades of reserves; increased costs, delays, suspensions and
technical challenges associated with the construction of capital projects; the impact of global liquidity and credit availability on the timing of cash flows and the values of assets and
liabilities based on projected future cash flows; the impact of inflation; fluctuations in the currency markets; operating or technical difficulties in connection with mining or development
activities; the speculative nature of mineral exploration and development, including the risks of obtaining necessary licenses and permits; risk of loss due to acts of war, terrorism,
sabotage and civil disturbances; changes in U.S. dollar interest rates and other operating currencies; risks arising from holding derivative instruments; litigation; business opportunities that
may be presented to, or pursued by, the company; our ability to successfully integrate acquisitions or complete divestitures; employee relations; availability and increased costs associated
with mining inputs and labor. In addition, there are risks and hazards associated with the business of mineral exploration, development and mining, including environmental hazards,
industrial accidents, unusual or unexpected formations, pressures, cave-ins, flooding and gold bullion, copper cathode or gold/copper concentrate losses (and the risk of inadequate
insurance, or inability to obtain insurance, to cover these risks). Many of these uncertainties and contingencies can affect our actual results and could cause actual results to differ
materially from those expressed or implied in any forward-looking statements made by, or on behalf of, us. Readers are cautioned that forward-looking statements are not guarantees of
future performance. All of the forward-looking statements made in this presentation are qualified by these cautionary statements. Specific reference is made to the most recent Annual
Information Form on file with the Canadian provincial securities regulatory authorities for a discussion of some of the factors underlying forward-looking statements. The company
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 required by applicable
law.

1. Please see the Aranzazu Report and the appendix for the mineral resources statement. The Aranzazu Report is preliminary in nature. It includes inferred mineral resources that are
considered too speculative geologically to have the economic considerations applied to them that would enable them to be categorized as mineral reserves. There is no certainty
that the Aranzazu Report will be realized. Mineral resources that are not mineral reserves do not have demonstrated economic viability

Aura Minerals Corporate Presentation- May 2014

  • 2. TSX: ORA 2 This presentation is subject to change without notice and does not purport to be comprehensive or contain all the information necessary to evaluate the subject matter discussed herein. Accordingly, this document should not form the basis of, and should not be relied upon in connection with, any investment in Aura Minerals Inc. (the “Company”). This document is provided for general informational purposes only. The data included in this presentation regarding industry size, trends and prices are based on a variety of sources, third party studies and surveys, industry and general publications and our knowledge and experience in the industry in which we operate. While we believe such data to be accurate as of the date hereof, this information may prove to be inaccurate. As a result, you should be aware that industry data included in this presentation, and estimates and beliefs based on that data, may not be reliable. We have not independently verified the industry data included in this offering memorandum and cannot guarantee their accuracy or completeness. Forward-Looking Information. Certain information contained or incorporated by reference in this presentation, including any information as to our strategy, projects, plans or future financial or operating performance, constitutes "forward-looking statements”. All statements, other than statements of historical fact, are forward-looking statements. The words “believe”, "expect", “anticipate”, “contemplate”, “target”, “plan”, “intend”, “continue”, “budget”, “estimate”, “may”, “will”, “schedule” and similar expressions identify forward looking statements. Forward-looking statements are necessarily based upon a number of estimates and assumptions that, while considered reasonable by the company, are inherently subject to significant business, economic and competitive uncertainties and contingencies. Known and unknown factors could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements. Such factors include, but are not limited to: fluctuations in the spot and forward price of gold and copper or certain other commodities (such as silver, diesel fuel and electricity); changes in national and local government legislation, taxation, controls, regulations, expropriation or nationalization of property and political or economic developments in Canada and other jurisdictions in which the Company does or may carry on business in the future; diminishing quantities or grades of reserves; increased costs, delays, suspensions and technical challenges associated with the construction of capital projects; the impact of global liquidity and credit availability on the timing of cash flows and the values of assets and liabilities based on projected future cash flows; the impact of inflation; fluctuations in the currency markets; operating or technical difficulties in connection with mining or development activities; the speculative nature of mineral exploration and development, including the risks of obtaining necessary licenses and permits; risk of loss due to acts of war, terrorism, sabotage and civil disturbances; changes in U.S. dollar interest rates and other operating currencies; risks arising from holding derivative instruments; litigation; business opportunities that may be presented to, or pursued by, the company; our ability to successfully integrate acquisitions or complete divestitures; employee relations; availability and increased costs associated with mining inputs and labor. In addition, there are risks and hazards associated with the business of mineral exploration, development and mining, including environmental hazards, industrial accidents, unusual or unexpected formations, pressures, cave-ins, flooding and gold bullion, copper cathode or gold/copper concentrate losses (and the risk of inadequate insurance, or inability to obtain insurance, to cover these risks). Many of these uncertainties and contingencies can affect our actual results and could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied in any forward-looking statements made by, or on behalf of, us.
