and Ontario through the acquisition of Adventure Gold Inc. ("Adventure"). The acquired portfolio currently consists of fifteen (15) properties 100%-owned by Probe, the Pascalis, Senore, Beaufor North, Lapaska, Bonnefond North and Megiscane-Tavenier properties, collectively forming the Val-d'Or East Project, Detour East and North properties, forming part of the Detour Project, the Casagosic, Sinclair-Bruneau and Florence, comprising the Casa-Cameron Project and the Granada Extension Project, and three (3) Option and/or Joint Venture ("JV") properties, the Meunier-144 JV (50/50 JV with Pan American Silver, formerly with Tahoe Resources), the Dubuisson JV with Agnico Eagle Mines Limited ("Agnico") (46.3% Probe/53.7% Agnico) and the Detour Quebec JV with SOQUEM Inc. ("SOQUEM") (25% SOQUEM / Probe 75%). On November 28, 2016, Probe entered into an option agreement with Alexandria Minerals Corporation, whereby Probe may earn up to a 70% interest in the Cadillac Break East Property in Val-d'Or, Quebec (Alexandria Minerals, which includes the option agreement, was acquired by O3 Mining Inc. on August 1, 2019). On January 17, 2017, Probe signed an option agreement with Richmont Mines Inc. (now with Monarch Gold Corporation), whereby Probe may earn a 60% interest in the Monique Property, as part of the land consolidation program for its Val-d'Or East project. On April 10, 2017, the Company entered into an option agreement with Legion Metals on its Millen Mountain gold project in the Middle Mosquodoboit area of Nova Scotia. Under the terms of the agreement, Probe can earn up to 75% of the property by incurring work expenditures. On June 29, 2017 Probe announced the acquisition of the Aurbel East property from QMX Gold Corporation ("QMX"), which is contiguous to the Company's Senore property within the Val-d'Or East project. On October 19, 2017 Probe acquired a 100%-interest in the Courvan property from Monarch Gold Corporation, which hosts the past-producing Bussiere Mine and is contiguous to the claims hosting the Company's New Beliveau deposit. On March 24, 2020, Probe completed the acquisition of a 100% interest in the Monique Property from Monarch Gold Corporation. On May 14, 2020, the Company announced the acquisition of SOQUEM's 25% interest in the Company's Detour Quebec JV. On July 9, 2020, Probe optioned the La Peltrie property from Midland Exploration Inc. ("Midland"). The terms of the option include cash/share payments and work commitments to acquire a 65% interest in 435 claims contiguous to the western end of the Company's Detour Quebec project. On July 30, 2020, the Company announced a separate joint venture agreement with Midland on land at the eastern end of the Detour Quebec project. The companies each own a 50% interest in contiguous claims contributed by Probe (65 claims) and Midland (161) centered on Probe's Nantel-Fenelon property. On May 26, 2021, the Company received confirmation that it had vested its 60% interest in the Cadillac Break East property and formed a 60/40 joint-venture with O3 Mining Inc.

The Company also considers additional acquisitions of mineral property interests, or corporations holding mineral property interests, with the objectives of: (i) creating additional value for shareholders through the acquisition of additional mineral exploration properties; and (ii) helping to minimize exploration risk by attempting to diversify the Company's property portfolio. Although the Company believes that the current exploration prospects for its exploration projects are positive, mineral exploration in general is both uncertain and subject to fluctuating commodity prices resulting from changing trends in supply and demand.

Exploration and development updates

On January 5, 2021, Probe announced further drill results from its Monique property. Results from 12 holes demonstrated expansion of the I Zone, returning up to 7.3 g/t Au over 10.4 metres, 2.9 g/t Au over 17.9 metres, 2.4 g/t Au over 10 metres 1.5 g/t Au over 12.8 metres and 1.8 g/t over 11.9 metres, while expansion drilling at the M Zone returned 2.6 g/t Au over 5 metres and 2.3 g/t over 8 metres.

On February 1, 2021, the Company released additional drill results for its Courvan property. Results from the last 20 holes, including two extension holes, of the 2020 exploration and expansion drill program continued to show new high-grade gold discoveries along the Courvan Gold Trend near surface and at depth. Results from this drilling returned some of the best intervals to-date from the Courvan property, including 14.8 g/t Au over 7.5 metres in hole CO-146 and 7.5 g/t Au over 13 metres in hole CO-171.

On February 23, 2021, the Company announced positive results from geotechnical studies at the Val-d'Or East Project. The work included characterizing joint-scale structural trends, and rock mass quality, as well as bench design, and high wall stability assessments. The main objective of the program was to define catch bench capacities, and inter-ramp angles, to support ongoing mine design and economic evaluations. The positive results have identified opportunities to further increase slope angles for a number of the planned pits of the Val-d'Or East project.

On March 9, 2021, the Company announced further drill results from its Pascalis property. Results from 71 drill holes were successful in confirming continuity of gold zones and expanding near-surface gold mineralisation at both the New Beliveau and North deposits. Highlights from the drilling include: 11 g/t Au over 7.2 metres; 56.1 g/t Au over 1.1 metres; 8.2 g/t Au over 3 metres and 7.8 g/t Au over 3 metres.

On March 30, 2021, the Company provided an update on its Detour Quebec project. Regional geochemical and geophysical programs were successful in identifying more than 50 priority gold targets across the 90- kilometre strike length of the property. Ground geophysical follow-up programs had commenced in preparation for a summer drill program, which will form part of a 20,000 metre drill program to be completed on the Detour project over the next 12-18 months.

On April 20, 2021, the Company announced metallurgical results for its Val-d'Or East Project in Quebec. Results were very positive and showed excellent recoveries of 95% for most of the deposits, with gravity recoveries of between 50% and 72%. In addition, all deposits show similar metallurgical characteristics and can, therefore, be treated in a single processing facility. The mineralization appears to contain significant coarse gold and shows negligible amounts of deleterious elements, such as arsenic or antimony.

On May 4, 2021, the Company released results for the first four holes from its Monique 2021 drilling program. Results from shallow (<300-metre depth) drilling showed significant thicknesses of gold mineralization along the M and B Zones. Expansion drilling along the M Zone returned intersections of up to 5.3 g/t Au over 18.7 metres (downhole thickness); while infill drilling in the B Zone returned intervals of up to 4.8 g/t Au over 19.1 metres (downhole thickness).

On June 1, 2021, the Company announced its third updated resource estimate for the Val-d'Or East project in Quebec. The resource was increased by 16% to 1,773,500 ounces of gold in the Measured & Indicated - 5 -
