About Abacus
Abacus is a mineral exploration and mine development company currently focused on copper and gold in B.C. and
Nevada. The Company's main asset is a 20% ownership interest, together with KGHM Polska Mied S.A. (80%), in
the proposed copper-gold Ajax Mine located southwest of Kamloops, B.C., which has undergone a joint provincial and
federal environmental assessment process. On December 14, 2017, a decision was made by the B.C. Minister of
Environment and Climate Change Strategy and the Minister of Energy, Mines and Petroleum Resources to decline
to issue an environmental assessment certificate for the Project. KGHM have recently reopened an office in
Kamloops, B.C. to facilitate First Nation, community and governmental engagement in order to advance the project
towards a potential resubmission of the environmental application.
Abacus also holds an option on the Willow copper-gold property located near Yerington, Nevada in which it can
acquire up to a 75% ownership interest, and the contiguous Nev-Lorraine claims subject to a ten-year lease
agreement.
