The Technical Report prepared by Stantec with an effective date of October 26, 2021 is summarized below.

Bur Property Mineral Resource Estimate at 2.3% CuEq Cut-Off ^(1-11)

1. CIM definitions are followed for classification of Mineral Resource.
2. Mineral resources are contained within a mineralized vein (zone) dipping at approximately 60 degrees towards the northwest whose closest vertical depth from surface is 6 m and maximum vertical depth is 1,274 m.
3. Resources are constrained to a minimum true vein thickness of 0.2 m and where calculated block revenues after recovery are greater than costs for mining.
4. CuEQ (%) = Cu(%) + Zn(%) x 0.347 + Au(gpt) x 0.430 +Ag(gpt) x 0.005
5. ZnEQ (%) = Cu(%) x 2.885 + Zn(%) + Au(gpt) x 1.241 + Ag(gpt) x 0.016
6. CuEQ and ZnEQ formulas are calculated using the following revenue inputs: Cu US$ 3.26/lb, Zn US$ 1.13/lb, Au US$ 1,744/oz, and Ag US$ 22.05/oz. Metal recoveries are: 80% Cu, 80% Zn, 40% Au and 40% Ag.
7. Mining costs used to determine prospects for eventual economic extraction total C$110/t.
8. US$ to C$ exchange rate applied is 1:1.31.
9. Specific gravity for the mineralized zone is fixed at 3.1.
10. Totals may not represent the sum of the parts due to rounding.
11. The Mineral Resource estimate has been prepared by Derek Loveday, P. Geo. of Stantec Consulting Services Ltd. in conformity with CIM "Estimation of Mineral Resource and Mineral Reserves Best Practices" guidelines and are reported in accordance with the Canadian Securities Administrators NI 43-101.

Bur Mineralization and Resource Expansion Potential

The Bur Deposit is a sediment hosted stratiform volcanogenic massive sulphide (VMS) deposit that occurs within a narrow turbidite assemblage of interbedded metagreywacke, metasiltstone and graphitic meta-argillite in a basinal area situated between two granitic intrusions. The northeast striking deposit dips 60-70 degrees northwest, averages 2.0 metres true thick and ranges from <0.3 metres up to 9 metres thick and to date has a known lateral extent of approximately 8,000 metres. Historic and recent drilling throughout the Bur Property has encountered near surface, disseminated, semi-massive and massive sulphide mineralization below shallow overburden along a strike length of over 6,000 metres and to a vertical depth of 1,274 metres (see Figure 2). Mineralization consists of sphalerite, chalcopyrite, pyrrhotite, pyrite, galena and arsenopyrite. The Bur Deposit remains open in all directions and contains up to 20% felsic or cherty nodules consisting of wall-rock and late quartz fragments displaying a brecciated texture to the mineralization.

Resource Estimate Methodology

The Mineral Resource Estimate reported herein, considered drilling information available up to 2020 and was evaluated using a geostatistical block modeling approach constrained by polymetallic mineralization wireframes utilizing MinePlan 3D© software Version 15-80-2 modeling software. The evaluation of the Mineral Resource Estimate involved CuEq cut-off value determination, constraining wireframe solids creation, compositing, grade capping, variography, grade Interpolation and Mineral Resource Estimate quantification.

A total of 238 drill holes (totalling 107,101 metres) from the entire database were reviewed and 208 of those drill holes (totalling 101,676 metres) were utilized to create the constraining wireframes (mineralized zone). The constraining wireframes have an overall strike length of 6,060 metres, down dip projection of 1,464 metres and average true width of 2 metres. There were 1,116 assays captured by the constraining wireframes that were combined into 436 regular 1-metre composites with an average core length of 2.25 metres. A grade capping evaluation was performed and grades were capped at 6.5% for copper (Cu), 30% for zinc (Zn), 0.35 g/t for gold (Au) and 40 g/t for silver (Ag). The capped composites were evaluated using variography to determine the grade interpolation search ranges and also used for resource assurance (classification). Resource classification is influenced by distance to the nearest drill hole sample composite, age of the exploration data and number of drill hole intercepts through the mineralized zone. For measured resources, a minimum of 3 sampled intercepts within 50 metres from Rockcliff-only drill holes is used as a guide. For indicated resources 3 sampled drill hole intercepts up to 100 mtertes and for inferred a minimum of one sampled intercept per drill hole up to 200 metres is used as a guide.

Grade interpolation was undertaken from 1-metre regular drillhole composited through the mineralized zone into a horizontally rotated 3D block model orientated along strike (045 degrees) of the mineralized zone. An ID3 method of estimation was used for Cu, Zn, Au and Ag grade data that was estimated in a regular block size of 20 metres along stike, 2.5 metres across-strike and 5 metres vertical. Bulk density was derived from 61 specific gravity (SG) measurements taken from within the mineralized zone that ranged from a minimum of 2.76 to 3.76, generating a median and average SG of 3.1. Density from within the mineralized zone for resource reporting was fixed at 3.1. The subsequent block model grades and tonnages were quantified for the Mineral Resource Estimate at a 2.3% CuEq cut-off value.

Neither Rockcliff's Qualified Person, Ken Lapierre, P.Geo., nor Stantec's Qualified Person, Derek Loveday, P.Geo., nor management of Rockcliff are aware of any known environmental, permitting, legal, title, taxation, socio-political, marketing or other relevant issues that may materially affect the estimate of the Mineral Resource.

Quality Control and Quality Assurance

Samples of half core were packaged and shipped directly from Rockcliff's core facility in Snow Lake to TSL Laboratories (TSL), in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan. TSL is a Canadian assay laboratory and is accredited under ISO/IEC 17025. Each bagged core sample was dried, crushed to 70% passing 10 mesh and a 250g pulp is pulverized to 95% passing 150 mesh for assaying. A 0.5g cut is taken from each pulp for base metal analyses and leached in a multi acid (total) digestion and then analyzed for copper, lead, zinc and silver by atomic absorption. Gold concentrations are determined by fire assay using a 30g charge followed by an atomic absorption finish. Samples greater than the upper detection limit (3000 ppb) are reanalyzed using fire assay gravimetric using a 1 assay ton charge. Rockcliff inserted certified blanks and standards in the sample stream to ensure lab integrity. Rockcliff has no relationship with TSL other than TSL being a service provider to the Company.
