3. I am a graduate of Acadia University having obtained a Bachelor of Science (Honors) degree in Geology in 1989, a graduate of Laurentian University having obtained a Master of Science degree in Geology in 1992 and a graduate of the University of Western Ontario having obtained a Doctor of Philosophy in Geology in 1998.

4. I am a member in good standing of the Association of Professional Engineers, Geologists and Geophysicists of Alberta (P.Geo.)

5. I have practiced my profession continuously for over 39 years. From 1987 to 1996, I worked as a geologist during every field season (May to October). Since March 1997, I have been continuously employed as a geologist and have been involved in mineral exploration and resource modeling since 1991, across all stages of production - from grassroots to advanced exploration stages, including producing mines. My work has included mineral resource estimation and mineral resource and mineral reserve auditing since 2006, both in Canada and internationally. I have extensive experience in Archean and Proterozoic load gold deposits, volcanic and sediment hosted base metal massive sulphide deposits, porphyry copper-gold-silver deposits, low and intermediate sulphidation epithermal gold and silver deposits, magmatic Ni-Cu-PGE deposits, and unconformity- and sandstone-hosted uranium deposits.

6. I have read the definition of "Qualified Person" set out in National Instrument 43-101 Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects ("NI 43-101") and certify that by virtue of my education, affiliation to a professional association and past relevant work experience, I fulfill the requirements to be a "Qualified Person" for those sections of the Technical Report that I am responsible for preparing.

7. I have conducted three site visits to the Property. I conducted a site visit to the Project on May 29, 2023, a second site visit November 6 to November 8, 2023, and a third site visit on May 23, 2024.
