Forward Looking Statements<br />
This presentation contains certain “forward-looking statements” and “forward-looking information” under applicable securities laws. This<br />
presentation has been prepared by the management of A<strong>nconi</strong>a <strong>Resources</strong> <strong>Corp</strong>. (“A<strong>nconi</strong>a” or “The <strong>Corp</strong>oration”). Except for statements of<br />
historical fact, certain information contained herein constitutes forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are frequently characterized<br />
by words such as “plan”, “expect”, “project”, “intend”, “believe”, “anticipate”, “estimate”, and other similar words, or statements that certain events<br />
or conditions “may” or “will” occur. Forward looking information may include, but is not limited to, statements with respect to the future financial or<br />
operating performances of the <strong>Corp</strong>oration, estimated of future capital, operating and exploration expenditures, the future price of copper, gold<br />
and zinc, the estimation of mineral reserves and resources, the realization of mineral reserve estimates, the costs and timing of future exploration,<br />
requirements for additional capital, government regulation of exploration, development and mining operations, environmental risks, reclamation<br />
and rehabilitation expenses, title disputes or claims, and limitations of insurance coverage. Forward-looking statements are based on the opinions<br />
and estimates of management at the date the statements are made, and are based on a number of assumptions and subject to a variety of risks<br />
and uncertainties and other factors that could cause actual events or results to differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking<br />
statements. Many of these assumptions are based on factors and events that are not within the control of the <strong>Corp</strong>oration and there is no assurance<br />
they will prove to be correct. Factors that could cause actual results to vary materially from results anticipated by such forward-looking statements<br />
include changes in market conditions and other risk factors discussed or referred to in the section entitled “Risk Factors” in the <strong>Corp</strong>oration’s most<br />
recently filed MD&A has attempted to identify important factors that could cause actual actions, events or results to differ materially from those<br />
described in forward-looking statements, there may be other factors that cause actions, events or results not to be anticipated, estimated or<br />
intended. There can be no assurance that forward-looking statements will prove to be accurate, as actual results and future events could differ<br />
materially from those anticipated in such statements. The <strong>Corp</strong>oration undertakes no obligation to update forward-looking statements if<br />
circumstances or management’s estimates or opinions should change except as required by applicable securities laws. The reader is cautioned<br />
not to place undue reliance on forward-looking statements. Unless otherwise stated, the information contained in this presentation is as of October<br />

ZAC Quick Facts<br />
Target: Volcanogenic Massive sulphides (VMs)<br />
• The ZAC Property (3 full claims) completely covers a zinc, copper, silver and gold<br />
mineralized system consisting of multiple zones over a strike length in excess of 2.5<br />
km, which was the subject of a historic exploration program.<br />
• Largest and most important system can be traced both on surface and with<br />
geophysics for almost 1.5 km.<br />
• Check assays taken during due diligence (Archibald 2009) are consistent with<br />
previous systematic sampling of the outcropping zones by the Property owners as<br />
follows; and confirm the polymetallic nature of the deposit:<br />

Gravity Signature of ZAC Property<br />
• Gravity surveys on the ZAC Property<br />
have produced the gravity signature to<br />
the left (pink colour represents gravity<br />
high readings) red dots represent EM<br />
(geotem) sources.<br />
• This represents a strike length of<br />
approximately 2.6 km.<br />
• Note the secondary gravity feature<br />
below the large pink zone in the right of<br />
the image interpreted as an offshoot of<br />
the main gravity feature.<br />

ATLAS-1 Quick Facts<br />
• VMs discovery (Cu, Zn, Pb) with localized abundances of both silver and<br />
gold (1348 g/t Ag, and 11.19 g/t Au over 3.6m).<br />
• Evidence suggests that there is possibly a secondary gold/silver system<br />
superimposed on the VMs system.<br />
• Mineralization and an Iron Formation marker horizon have been encountered<br />
in all 12 holes drilled into the occurrence over a strike length of 2.4 km (two<br />
of the holes encountered only anomalous metal values). The geophysical<br />
signature continues to the north east for a total strike length of ~7.2km.<br />
• Locally a depth extension of at least 200m has been demonstrated by<br />
drilling. The occurrence remains open to depth.<br />
• A large 1.3km long gravity anomaly (survey extents, within the 7.2 km<br />
geophysical anomaly) has not been adequately explained by the drilling.<br />

The illustration shows a schematic<br />
vertical section through grid-line 24+50<br />
east, and depicts a generalization of<br />
the geology encountered at the<br />
ATLAs-1 occurrence. holes are<br />
collared in the footwall (mainly felsic<br />
volcanics with mafic intrusives), and<br />
pass from this unit into an alteration<br />
zone with stringer mineralization. The<br />
next unit encountered are the sulphide<br />
lenses, and then back into a short<br />
interval of felsic volcanics before<br />
passing through an iron formation<br />
marker horizon and into the<br />
hangingwall (comprised primarily of<br />
mixed mafic and felsic volcanics).<br />

were drilled during the<br />
summer 2012 ATLAs-1 drill<br />
program. Most drilling was<br />
executed along the 1.5km<br />
long conductor labelled as<br />
L5N. In the illustration black<br />
lines depict primary<br />
conductors, and green lines<br />
depict "out of phase" or<br />
quadrature conductors. All<br />

RB Property<br />
• historic gold showing last explored in the late 1980’s yielded surface samples<br />
of 126.9 g/t over 1m, and 12.8 g/t over 8m from drilling.<br />
• Claims were re-staked by A<strong>nconi</strong>a in 2010.<br />
• In july 2011, A<strong>nconi</strong>a prospected the area, of 73 samples taken 22 returned<br />
Gold assay values in excess of 2 g/t, many of which were in the 20 – 50 g/t<br />
range. The highest assay value returned was 144 g/t.<br />
• In september 2011, confirmation samples were taken, which assayed up to<br />
196 g/t, and indicated the presence of coarse gold.<br />
• The gold occurs mainly in mineralized faults running roughly east-west, which<br />
vary in width from a few cm to 20m. There appears to be a zone of about<br />
1000m strike length with a large concentration of elevated gold values (see<br />
map on following page).<br />
• Potential for a large structurally controlled mineralized system.<br />
• Located approximately 45km EsE of ZAC Claims.<br />
