Forward-Looking Information

This presentation contains "forward-looking information" within the meaning of Canadian securities legislation and “forward-looking statements”
within the meaning of the United States Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. This information and these statements, referred to herein
as “forward-looking statements”, are made as of the date of this presentation and the Company does not intend, and does not assume any
obligation, to update these forward-looking statements, except as required by law.

Forward-looking statements relate to future events or future performance and reflect current expectations or beliefs regarding future events and
include, but are not limited to, statements with respect to: (i) the amount of mineral resources and exploration targets; (ii) the amount of future
production over any period; (iii) net present value and internal rates of return of the mining operation; (iv) capital costs and operating costs; (v) mine
expansion potential and expected mine life; (vi) expected time frames for completion of permitting and regulatory approvals and making a
production decision; (vii) future exploration plans; (viii) future market prices for rough diamonds; and (ix) sources of and anticipated financing
requirements. Any statements that express or involve discussions with respect to predictions, expectations, beliefs, plans, projections, objectives,
assumptions or future events or performance (often, but not always, using words or phrases such as “expects”, “anticipates”, “plans”, “projects”,
“estimates”, “assumes”, “intends”, “strategy”, “goals”, “objectives” or variations thereof or stating that certain actions, events or results “may”,
“could”, “would”, “might” or “will” be taken, occur or be achieved, or the negative of any of these terms and similar expressions) are not statements
of historical fact and may be forward-looking statements.

Forward-looking statements are made based upon certain assumptions and other important factors that, if untrue, could cause the actual results,
performances or achievements of Stornoway to be materially different from future results, performances or achievements expressed or implied by
such statements. Such statements and information are based on numerous assumptions regarding present and future business strategies and the
environment in which Stornoway will operate in the future, including the price of diamonds, anticipated costs and ability to achieve goals. Certain
important factors that could cause actual results, performances or achievements to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements
include, but are not limited to: (i) estimated completion date for the Environmental and Social Impact Assessment; (ii) required capital investment
and estimated workforce requirements; (iii) estimates of net present value and internal rates of return; (iv) receipt of regulatory approvals on
acceptable terms within commonly experienced time frames; (v) the assumption that a production decision will be made, and that decision will be
positive; (vi) anticipated timelines for the commencement of mine production; (vii) anticipated timelines related to the Route 167 extension and the
impact on the development schedule at Renard; (viii) anticipated timelines for community consultations and the conclusion of an Impact and
Benefits Agreement; (ix) market prices for rough diamonds and the potential impact on the Renard Project’s value; and (x) future exploration plans
and objectives. Additional risks are described in Stornoway's most recently filed Annual Information Form, annual and interim MD&A, and other
disclosure documents available under the Company’s profile at: www.sedar.com.

When relying on our forward-looking statements to make decisions with respect to Stornoway, investors and others should carefully consider the
foregoing factors and other uncertainties and potential events. Stornoway does not undertake to update any forward-looking statement, whether
written or oral, that may be made from time to time by Stornoway or on our behalf, except as required by law.

Notes: Grades illustrated are for Indicated and Inferred Mineral Resources respectively at a +1DTC sieve size cut-off. Reserve and Resource categories are compliant with the "CIM Definition
Standards on Mineral Resources and Reserves". Mineral resources that are not mineral reserves do not have demonstrated economic viability. The potential quantity and grade of any Exploration
Target (previously referred to as a “Potential Mineral Deposit”) is conceptual in nature, and it is uncertain if further exploration will result in the target being delineated as a mineral resource.

Long Term Business Plan

 Stornoway has also developed a Long Term Business
 Plan (“LTBP”) based on the Project’s total Indicated and
 Inferred Mineral Resources to a depth of 700m.

 This material is within the scope of the mine
 infrastructure costed within the Feasibility Study, and
 includes 6.1 Mcarats of high grade Inferred Mineral
 Resources between 600-700 meters depth in Renard 2.

 The LTBP also contemplates an increased production
 rate within the scope of the process plant’s design
 parameters, which allows for expansion up to 7,000
 tonnes per day (2.6 Mtonnes/annum).

 Expansion mill feed is expected to be derived from the      A 4 carat, top quality diamond
 open pit on the Renard 65 kimberlite.                       recovered from Renard 65 drillcore

 Although highly accretive, the project’s Inferred Mineral
 Resources are not included in the Feasibility Study
 economic analysis in accordance with NI 43-101.

 The LTBP is the basis of the Renard mine permit
 application, and as such forms part of the project’s
 public disclosure in connection with the environmental
 assessment regulatory process under applicable federal
 and provincial legislation.

Renard Diamond Valuation
Conducted by WWW International Diamond Consultants Ltd. May 8th-13th, 2011


     Renard kimberlite pipes have a diamond population with a coarse size distribution and high proportion
     of large white gems. Lynx and Hibou kimberlite dykes have a finer distribution of browner stones.

     99% by weight gem/near-gem quality. 1% industrial quality boart.

     Coarse size distribution: potential for significant “Specials”, not accounted for in the current resource
     work. (Three to six 50-100ct stones and one to two +100ct stones every 100,000 carats.)

Permitting
On-Track for Completion in 2012

 Renard falls under the environmental protection regime
 of the James Bay and Northern Québec Agreement
 (JBNQA) and the Canadian Environmental Assessment
 Act.

 Stornoway filed the Renard Environmental and Social
 Impact Assessment (ESIA) with Québec and federal
 regulators in December 2011.

 Public consultations under the auspices of the federal
 regulator where held in Chibougamau and Mistissini
 between June 5th and 7th. Hearings under the auspices
 of the Review Committee of the JBNQA are expected
 to be held later in the summer, with the project
 becoming eligible for its Certificates of Authorization
 thereafter.

 The Renard ESIA describes a limited-footprint project
 with modest impacts on the local environment, all of
 which are well within existing Québec and federal
 standards.

 Stornoway has published the complete ESIA, the
 Environmental Baseline Study, and the project Closure
 Plan online.

The “Mecheshoo” Agreement (IBA)
Renard’s Social Licence

 The Renard Diamond Project is situated close to the
 Cree Nation of Mistissini (CNM) and the mining
 community of Chibougamau.

 Stornoway and its predecessor companies have
 conducted extensive community consultations in
 Mistissini since 2001 on the basis of respect,
 transparency and full regulatory compliance.

 In March 2012 Stornoway concluded an Impacts and
 Benefits Agreement, the “Mecheshoo Agreement”, with
 the CNM and the Grand Council of the Crees (EI).

 The Mecheshoo Agreement provides for employment
 and business opportunities for the Crees, fosters
 cultural, environmental and social protection, and
 provides for the Crees’ participation in the project’s long

         De Beers and Alrosa maintain the bulk of the world’s formerly established diamond resources (78% by
         SWY estimates).

         Not all diamond resources are created equal: large diversity in ore body grades and diamond value.

Global Rough Diamond Production Forecast

 Almost all rough diamond production forecasts show flat or declining production long term.

 Alrosa is an optimistic forecaster, with a 23% increase in carat supply 2010 to 2020. Others (such as RBC
 below) forecast 15-17% supply growth. Rough production may not reach 2008 levels in carat terms again.

 No large scale diamond mine has been discovered since the discovery of EKATI and Diavik in the early
 1990s. New production from projects under development is not expected to materially impact overall supply.

   The Renard Feasibility Study of November 2011, consistent with the NI 43-101 compliant Mineral Resource of January 2011, utilizes a higher diamond price based on an analysis of
  diamond breakage and poor plant recovery of the Renard 4 valuation sample, which is $164/carat. All samples utilize a +0.85mm (+1 DTC) cutoff.

Financial Analysis
Renard Diamond Valuation Sensitivities


WWW determine High and Minimum sensitivities on their Base Case diamond price model. WWW state that
it is unlikely that an actual diamond price achieved for each kimberlite body upon production would fall below
the “Minimum” sensitivity, but it is possible that the actual diamond price achieved may be higher than the
“High” sensitivity, which is not a maximum price.

The Feasibility Study Base Case diamond price of US$182/carat for Renard 2 and 3 and US$164/carat for
Renard 4 derives from a value modeling approach that assumes a single diamond size distribution in the
three kimberlites.

An alternative interpretation, that each kimberlite’s diamond population is unique and is correctly represented
by its diamond sample, yields diamond price models of US$208/carat for Renard 2, US$165/carat for Renard
3 and US$112/carat for Renard 4.

This “Alternative” diamond price model is highly accretive to the project’s valuation given the dominance of
Renard 2 in the mine plan. The interpretation of similarity in the diamond populations is the more
conservative approach.

A real-terms diamond price growth factor of 2.5% per annum has been applied between 2012 and 2025.
This is consistent with well constrained rough diamond supply and demand forecasts and industry best-
practice. WWW have advised that Stornoway’s assumptions on diamond price and diamond price growth
are “reasonable in the context of the overall supply and demand environment” of the diamond industry.
The project shows strong sensitivity to future diamond price growth.

 Notes: The potential quantity and grade of any exploration target (previously referred to as “potential mineral deposit”) is conceptual in nature, and it is uncertain if further exploration
 will result in the target being delineated as a mineral resource. The exploration upside for the Renard kimberlite pipes has been determined by projecting reasonable kimberlite
 volumes from the base of the inferred Resource to a depth of 700m below surface. In the case of the Lynx and Hibou dykes, the exploration upside was established on the basis of
 known drill intersections of kimberlite for which insufficient diamond sampling exists to adequately estimate a diamond resource grade.

Processed Kimberlite Containment

PKC site selection was based on a
comprehensive evaluation of 5 sites.

Geochemical characterisation of Processed
Kimberlite (“PK”) and country rock waste
indicates minimal metal leach potential and
no acid generation.

PKC facility will be a dry stacked facility with
no requirement for a liner.                        Dewatered PK           Characterisation

PKC facility can accommodate all current
Indicated and Inferred Resources (44.3 Mt).

Waste rock can be used as construction
aggregate.

PK will be de-watered by centrifuge and
trucked to the PKC site. PKC is an
engineered facility requiring compaction of
berms and placement of erosion barriers.
The PK deposition plan allows for
progressive rehabilitation and re-vegetation.

No fish habitat will be impacted by PK
disposal.
                                                   PKC Facility in 2026

Rough production may not reach 2008 levels in carat terms again. No large scale diamond mine has been discovered since the discovery of EKATI and Diavik in the early 1990s.

  • 40. 40 Financial Analysis Renard Diamond Valuation Sensitivities WWW determine High and Minimum sensitivities on their Base Case diamond price model. WWW state that it is unlikely that an actual diamond price achieved for each kimberlite body upon production would fall below the “Minimum” sensitivity, but it is possible that the actual diamond price achieved may be higher than the “High” sensitivity, which is not a maximum price. The Feasibility Study Base Case diamond price of US$182/carat for Renard 2 and 3 and US$164/carat for Renard 4 derives from a value modeling approach that assumes a single diamond size distribution in the three kimberlites. An alternative interpretation, that each kimberlite’s diamond population is unique and is correctly represented by its diamond sample, yields diamond price models of US$208/carat for Renard 2, US$165/carat for Renard 3 and US$112/carat for Renard 4.

The exploration upside for the Renard kimberlite pipes has been determined by projecting reasonable kimberlite volumes from the base of the inferred Resource to a depth of 700m below surface. In the case of the Lynx and Hibou dykes, the exploration upside was established on the basis of known drill intersections of kimberlite for which insufficient diamond sampling exists to adequately estimate a diamond resource grade.
