Company’s public disclosure from time to time, as filed under the Company’s profile on SEDAR at www.sedar.com. Forward-looking information may include, but is not limited to,
statements with respect to results of the Feasibility Study (as defined below) and the mineral reserve and resource estimate, the future financial or operating performance of the Company,
its subsidiaries and its projects, the development of and the anticipated timing with respect to the Shymanivske project, the ability to obtain financing on commercially reasonable terms;
and the impact of concerns relating to permitting, regulation, governmental and local community relations, including the results of upcoming Presidential elections and Western and Russian

such words and phrases or state that certain actions, events or results "may", "could", "would", "might" or "will be taken", "occur" or "be achieved". Estimates underlying the results of the
Feasibility Study arise from engineering, geological and costing work of Lycopodium Minerals Canada Ltd. (“Lycopodium”), Soutex Inc. (“Soutex”), Watts, Griffis and McOuat Limited
(“WGM”), Consulting Geologists and Engineers of Toronto, P&E Mining Consultants Inc. (“P&E”) and the Company. See the technical report relating to the feasibility study for a description

NI 43-101 Technical Report “Feasibility Study of the Shymanivske Iron Ore Deposit for Black Iron Inc”, dated January 24, 2014 Prepared by Lycopodium Minerals Canada Ltd. /
Bankable Feasibility Study (the “Feasibility Study”) – For additional information, please see the Report filed on www.sedar.com dated January 24, 2014.
*Resource estimate compiled using historic Soviet data by Hugues de Corta, who is an independent qualified person as defined by NI 43-101. Readers should not place undue reliance on
historical estimates.
*The mineral resource estimate for the Shymanivske Project is based on results from 185 historical drill holes totaling 37,316 meters and 60 Black Iron drill holes, which were drilled during
the Company’s Twin Hole drill program and the Definition Drill program, totaling 16,518 meters and is effective as of September 2012. Watts, Griffis and McOuat Limted (“WGM”),
Consulting Geologists and Engineers of Toronto, Canada, was retained to audit an in-house mineral resource estimate completed by Black Iron. Mr. Michael Kociumbas, P.Geo, Vice-
President of WGM and Mr. Richard Risto, P.Geo, Senior Geological Associate of WGM, were retained by Black Iron as independent technical consultants and are Qualified Persons as defined
by NI 43-101 and are responsible for reviewing and approving this mineral resource estimate. The Feasibility Study was prepared in accordance with the guidelines of National Instrument
43-101 by the independent firms of Lycopodium Minerals Canada Ltd.; Soutex Mineral & Metallurgical Consultants; Watts, Griffis and McOuat Limited; and P&E Mining Consultants Inc..
*Matt Simpson, President & CEO of Black Iron, a Qualified Person as defined by NI-43-101, has reviewed and approved the scientific and technical information in this presentation.

Large Ore Deposit with Growth Potential
• Banded iron formation consisting primarily of
magnetite with some hematite
− Iron band thickness ranges from 40-80 m
− Only 9.7-21.2 m of overburden with a strip ratio
of 1.63:1, life of mine; 1.36:1 for first 8 years
− Very clean ore body low in phosphorus,
manganese and aluminum
• Resource defined by ~54,000 metres of
drilling
― Black Iron completed a Twin Hole Drill
Program consisting of 6,042 metres and a
Phase II Drill Program consisting of 11,435
metres of infill drilling
― Total iron grade and band width align very well
with 37,000 metres of historical drilled data
• Potential for total combined resource
expansion of 1.1 to 1.8BT
− Additional drilling of Shymanivske at North end
of deposit and to depth
− Exploration of the Zelenivske project

Potential Resource Extension at Shymanivske
Ground Gravity Shows Iron Ore Mineralization at North End
• Ground gravity and magnetic surveys
show potential extension of iron ore
mineralization at North end of property as
circled in red
• This area has not been included in the NI
43-101 resource as it has not yet been
sufficiently drilled
• The identified area will be a target of a
future drill program to allow for a second
phase process plant expansion to increase
production and project value
