ON YOUR MARK,GET SET ,GOCopy and pasted from the notice and information circular regarding the annual general meeting upcoming. for those that have said Roman isnt doing anything,heres a 2017 recap :). Dear fellow Harte Gold Shareholders, 2017 was another busy year as we completed our 70,000 tonne Advanced Exploration and Bulk Sample program, began underground development work related to our 30,000 tonne Phase I Commercial Production permit and began work on our on-site processing facility in preparation for the beginning of commercial production at the Sugar Zone Mine Q3 2018. In addition to the above mining operations work, Harte Gold conducted drill programs that included over 70,000 meters drilled at the Sugar Zone Deposit, the newly discovered Middle Zone Deposit, Wolf Zone and other regional exploration targets and completed property wide airborne geophysical surveys to identify additional exploration targets. Results from the survey led to the staking of an additional 40,000 ha as Harte Gold moved to acquire more promising ground in the vicinity of the Sugar Zone property. Results from the 2017 drill programs were included in the updated Sugar Zone NI 43-101 Resource Report released in QI 2018 which Resource Statement tripled the mineral resource from approximately 475,000 ounces to 1.5 million gold ounces. The increased mineral resource was incorporated into an update of Harte Gold’s NI 43-101 Preliminary Economic Assessment (“PEA”) and released in early Q2 2018. The PEA outlines the economics of the current mine plan and features a higher degree of accuracy than previously as Harte Gold has mined 100,000 tonnes of ore from the Sugar Zone Deposit over the past two years and as a result, key project metrics such as the optimum mining method, mining dilution and recovered grades have been tested and are well understood. In addition, most capital items have either been paid for or contracted and budgeted expenses in the PEA are well defined and unlikely to change to any material degree. Site development is well underway with the Mill Building completed and major Mill components largely ready to go. A 100 person camp facility including full commercial kitchen has been established in the Town Of White River on property acquired by Harte Gold. The camp allows us to provide room and board in Town which is consistent with overall efforts to maximize local economic benefits and minimize environmental impacts on site. 2017 also saw the completion of five levels of underground development at the Sugar Zone Mine and the establishment of a 40,000 tonne stockpile on surface which will serve to bed in the Mill and ramp up early stage production. Permitting for full commercial production is near completion. Harte gold is working closely with Ontario government ministries and anticipates final Permits will be issued end of Q2 2018 and mining will re-commence immediately thereafter at an initial rate of 540 tonnes per day to generate approximately 50,000 ounces per year. Two key recent developments include the signing of an Impact Benefits Agreement with proximal Band; Pic Mobert First Nation (“Pic Mobert”). Harte Gold has worked closely with Pic Mobert since entering into an Exploration Agreement with Pic Mobert in 2011. Harte Gold looks forward to continuing to work together as we celebrate our 10th year on the project by moving into full commercial production and continuing exploration programs over the 83,850 hectare Sugar Zone property. The second key development is the signing by Harte Gold of loan agreements for up to US$70 million from two institutional investors which amount provides a full financing solution to complete project construction and provide working capital. 2017 was a pivotal year for Harte Gold as we set the foundation for the commencement of full commercial production. Management and the Board of Directors would like to take this opportunity to thank our shareholders, friends, employees and contractors for their hard work and support in contributing to Harte Gold Corp.’s successful 2017. On behalf of the Board, "Stephen G. Roman" __________________ Stephen G. Roman C
