Investment Highlights • Located in the mining friendly Tapajos Region of Brazil, Pará State • One of the largest under-explored alluvial gold areas in the world. Production from streams over the past 40 years is estimated to be 20 – 30 million ounces. • Limão Property – High Grade Gold • High grade historic intercepts include 47 g/t Au over 13 meters • Recent sampling returned values up to 107 g/t Au (3.76 ounces gold) • 2.5 % NSR on Gold Production from Ouro Roxo Gold Deposits • Agreement with a Private Brazilian Consortium to develop the Ouro Roxo Deposits • Production expected to commence in 2011 • Long term Goals and Opportunities • To develop existing properties in the Tapajos region and continue to review new opportunities
Central Brazil – Tapajós Region • One of the largest under-explored alluvial gold areas in the world • Over 250 alluvial and saprolite gold workings are documented in the region • Only a few have been explored by modern exploration techniques • Significant discoveries and mines in the area • Joint Venture to develop the Tocantinzinho Property by Eldorado Gold and Brazauro Resources • Located 80 kilometers west of Vila Porto Rico Property • Eldorado Gold purchased the Tocantinzinho Property for $123 million • Significant discovery by Magellan Minerals at the nearby Cuiu Cuiu project
Limão Property • Large Property ~12,376 hectares • Gold Mineralization hosted Alkalic Intrusive Rocks • Initial sampling confirmed high grade gold – 11 samples of pyritic rich syenite averaged 38 g/t Au or 1.12 oz/t Au • Drilling in the 80’s returned impressive gold intercepts • 47.0 g/t Au over 13 meters • 18.7 g/t Au over 6.8 meters • Numerous untested gold anomalies • Amerix has the option to earn 100% by completing payments of $170,000 and issuing 100,000 shares.
Syenite Float – 106.1 g/t Au Sample # TSBDH5 Pyritic rich Syenite 3.09 oz/t Au
Syenite Hosted Disseminated Gold Deposits • Gold mineralized hosted in Alkalic (syenite ) intrusive rocks. • Strong disseminated pyrite and micro-quartz stockworks • Mineralization at Limão is similar to the following: • Malartic and McDermott Gold Deposits Quebec, Cripple Creek Colorado, West Timmons Ontario, Rattlesnake Hills Wyoming
Historic Drill Hole Sample Intervals • - High grade Gold intercepts up to 144 g/t Au • - Continuous gold assays over a 13 metre interval • Limited sampling in wall rock with values up to 2.0 g/t Au • Sampling of old core returned 34.77 g/t Au
Historic Core Sample – 34.77 g/t Au Sample TSBDH3 1.01 oz/t Au Mineralized Syenite
Depth of known mineralization over 100 meters Tailings return values up to 5.13 g/t Au Limão Property – Open Pit Area
Limão Geochemistry 2010 Exploration Program defined and confirmed several new gold in-soil anomalies New gold zone located 1500 meters south of historic drilling shows visible gold All rock and auger samples were prepared by Acme Laboratories in Itaituba and analyzed by Acme Laboratories in Vancouver and Santiago, Chile. Jeffrey Reeder, PGeo, is a qualified person as defined in National Policy 43-101, and is responsible for the exploration program and responsible for all technical information in this presentation.
Limão Exploration 2011 PHASE 1 – April and May 2010 - Completed • Sampling and mapping to define gold anomalies to generate drill targets • $250,000 US Budget (completed) PHASE 2 – First and Second Quarter 2011 • Follow up on gold anomalies defined in Phase 1 • Auger drilling to locate near surface gold mineralization • Confirm historic high grade gold intercepts • Step out drilling PHASE 3 – Third and Fourth Quarter 2011 • Continue Diamond Drilling, Geophysics and further sampling
Ouro Roxo Property • Tailings and alluvial deposits cover an area of >200km2 • The right to earn 2.5% NSR on Ouro Roxo Deposits, currently negotiating buyout of underlying royalty • Production is expected to commence in 2011 • Long mine life expected Pacú River
Why Amerix Precious Metals Experienced and dedicated management Focused and well established in the highly prospective Tapajós Gold Province in Central Brazil. High Grade Gold Potential on the Limão – historic intercepts of 47 g/t Au over 13 meters Recent samples returned values up to 3.76 oz/t Au Gold Associated with Alkalic Rocks – Cripple Creek, West Timmins Revenue from NSR on the Ouro Roxo Properties Extremely low Market Capitalization – $16 million – comparable to companies exploring Brazil include: - Magellan Minerals – $162 million - Brazilian Gold – $45 million - Amarillo Gold – $84 million - Rio Novo- $ 222 million
