DISCLAIMER
    This presentation contains certain forward-looking statements within the meaning of Canadian securities legislation (the “Forward-looking Statements”), including with respect to the exploration and drill programs at the Company’s Queensway
    Project in Newfoundland. Although the Company believes that such statements are reasonable, it can give no assurance that such expectations will prove to be correct. Forward-looking statements are statements that are not historical facts;
    they are generally, but not always, identified by the words “expects,” “plans,” “anticipates,” “believes,” “intends,” “estimates,” “projects,” “aims,” “potential,” “goal,” “objective,” “prospective,” and similar expressions, or that events or
    conditions “will,” “would,” “may,” “can,” “could” or “should” occur, or are those statements, which, by their nature, refer to future events. The Company cautions that forward-looking statements are based on the beliefs, estimates and
    opinions of the Company’s management on the date the statements are made and they involve a number of risks and uncertainties. Consequently, there can be no assurances that such statements will prove to be accurate and actual results
    and future events could differ materially from those anticipated in such statements.

    Important factors that could cause future results to differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements include uncertainties related to fluctuations in gold and other commodity prices, uncertainties inherent in the
    exploration of mineral properties, risks associated with the interpretation of assay results and the drilling program including the work to assess the presence and source of bias relating to core samples submitted to Eastern Analytical as
    disclosed in the Company’s press release dated November 4, 2021, and the impact and progression of the COVID-19 pandemic and other risk factors set forth in the Company’s final prospectus under the heading “Risk Factors”. The reader is
    urged to refer to the Company’s reports, publicly available through the Canadian Securities Administrators’ System for Electronic Document Analysis and Retrieval (SEDAR) at www.sedar.com for a more complete discussion of such risk factors
    and their potential effects. Except to the extent required by applicable securities laws and the policies of the TSX Venture Exchange, the Company undertakes no obligation to update these forward-looking statements if management’s beliefs,
    estimates or opinions, or other factors, should change. New factors emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for NFG to predict all of them or assess the impact of each such factor or the extent to which any factor, or combination of
    factors, may cause results to differ materially from those contained in any Forward-looking Statement. Any Forward-looking Statements contained in this presentation are expressly qualified in their entirety by this cautionary statement.

    Information of a scientific nature related to the Queensway Project included in this presentation is based on the NI 43-101 Technical Report for the Queensway Project, Newfoundland, Canada, dated July 9, 2021, with an effective date of May
    27, 2021 (the “Queensway Report”), prepared by René Sterk, M.Sc., MAIG (RPGeo) FAusIMM CP(Geo) MSEG of RSC Consulting Limited and Stefan Kruse, PhD., P.Geo., (APEGNB, PEGNL, EGBC) of Terrane Geoscience Inc., who are independent
    qualified persons under NI 43-101

    Greg Matheson, P.Geo., the Chief Operating Officer of the Company, and a qualified person pursuant to NI 43-101, has reviewed and approved the scientific and technical information contain in this presentation. Mr. Matheson has verified the
    data disclosed herein, including sampling, analytical and test data underlying the technical information contained herein. True widths of the new exploration intercepts in this presentation are uncertain. Host structures along the Appleton
    Fault Zone are generally interpreted to be steeply dipping and true widths are estimated to be 85% to 95% of reported widths at Keats, 80% to 90% at Lotto, 70% to 90% at Golden Joint, 65% to 75% at Dome, unknown at Cokes, 85% to 95% at
    Road, unknown at Little-Powerline, and unknown at Knob. Intervals are calculated at a 1 g/t Au cut-off grade; grades have not been capped in the averaging.

    Assays are uncut, and calculated intervals are reported over a minimum length of 2 meters using a lower cutoff of 1.0 g/t Au. All HQ split core assays reported were obtained by either complete sample metallic screen/fire assay or standard
    30-gram fire-assaying with ICP finish at ALS Minerals in Vancouver, British Columbia or by entire sample screened metallic screen fire assay at Eastern Analytical in Springdale, Newfoundland. The whole sample metallic screen assay method is
    selected by the geologist when samples contain coarse gold or any samples displaying gold initial fire assay values greater than 1.0 g/t Au. Any samples that returned over-limit values (>100 g/t silver) were analyzed with the Ag- OG62
    procedure (Ag by HF-HNO3 -HClO4 digestion with HCl leach, ICP-AES or AAS finish). Drill program design, Quality Assurance/Quality Control and interpretation of results is performed by qualified persons employing a Quality Assurance/Quality
    Control program consistent with National Instrument 43-101 and industry best practices. Standards and blanks are included with every 20 samples for Quality Assurance/Quality Control purposes by the Company as well as the lab.
    Approximately 5% of sample pulps are sent to secondary laboratories for check assays.

    omissions from, this presentation or any oral communication transmitted in connection therewith. In addition, none of the statements contained in this presentation are intended to be, nor shall be deemed to be, representations or warranties
    of the Company. Where the information is from third-party sources, the information is from sources believed to be reliable, but the Company has not independently verified any of such information contained herein.

PROJECT OVERVIEW

•   Located on the Trans-Canada Highway,
    15km west of Gander, Newfoundland.

•   1,510km² project covering approximately
    105km of strike on two primary fault
    zones: Appleton and JBP.

•   Project divided by Gander Lake into
    Queensway North and Queensway South.

•   On Queensway North multiple high-grade
    targets identified along 7.8km of the
    Appleton Fault and 12.4km of the JBP
    Fault.

•   A large-scale regional till program has
    identified large gold in till anomalies
    coincident with the Appleton and JBP
    faults on Queensway South.

QUEENSWAY NORTH
400,000m program ongoing on Queensway North utilizing
ten drills with plans to ramp up to fourteen drills.

Drilling is targeting two prominent NE trending faults
that are the vital fluid conduits for gold mineralization:

Appleton Fault Zone

•   Auriferous quartz veins hosted within shale and greywacke
    identified over 7.8km of strike.

•   Noranda focused with shallow drilling on the Knob target
    south of the Trans Canada Highway.

•   Significant new discoveries at Keats, Golden Joint, and
    Lotto.

•   Infill and step-out drilling ongoing on these zones, as well as
    drill testing multiple additional targets along the AFZ.

JBP Fault Zone

•   Sedimentary hosted quartz vein gold system identified over
    12.4km strike.

•   Total historical drilling of 9,872m (54 drill holes).

•   One drill now testing targets along the JBP Fault Zone.
