Mr. John Power, Director

Mr. David Drips, CEO

500 Marquette Avenue NW, Suite 1200

Albuquerque, New Mexico 87102

Dear Messrs Power and Drips,

Re: Proposed Agreement to Purchase 100% of the Silver District Exploration Project, Arizona fromMagellan Gold Corporation

This letter of intent (“LOI”) sets out the principal commercial and contractual terms and principles of the agreement between Magellan Gold Corporation, Gulf

  • Western Industries, Inc. (“the Vendor”), and NV Gold Corporation (“NVX”) and its wholly-owned subsidiary NV Gold Corporation (USA) (“NV Gold”), whereby NV Gold has an option to purchase from the Vendor 100% of the Silver District Exploration Project located in La Paz County, Arizona, USA, which is made up of the mineral tenures, interests and permits listed in Schedule A (the “Property”), but subject to the royalties listed in Schedule A, and all data, maps, information, reports, drill core and samples from or relating to the Property in whatever form (collectively, the "Property Data").

This LOI is intended to and constitutes a legally binding and enforceable agreement among the parties. It is further intended that, subject to NV Gold being satisfied with the results of its due diligence investigations in respect of the Property in its discretion, including a site visit, the parties hereto agree to negotiate in good faith to settle the form of, and enter into, a binding definitive option agreement which will replace this LOI and set forth the terms and conditions of this LOI in greater detail (the “Definitive Agreement”).

1. Option to Purchase

The Vendor hereby grants NV Gold the exclusive right to purchase (the “Purchase Right”), an undivided 100% right, title and interest in and to the Property and the Property Data in consideration of:

a) NV Gold paying US$25,000 to the Vendor within 5 business days of the date the TSX Venture Exchange<br>(“TSXV”) accepts the terms of this LOI, which amount is non-refundable in all circumstances;
b) on or before the earlier of execution of the Definitive Agreement and 4 months from the date of<br>this LOI (such date being the “2^nd^ Payment Date”), NV Gold paying US$75,000 and NVX issuing 350,000<br>shares of NVX to the Vendor;
--- ---
| 1 |

| --- | | c) | on or before the first anniversary of the 2^nd^ Payment Date: | | --- | --- | | (i) | NVX issuing CAD$75,000 in shares of NVX to the Vendor, calculated using a 20-day VWAP ending on<br>the date two days before the date of payment, subject to the deemed price being not less than the price (the “Deemed PriceFloor”) that is greater of: | | --- | --- | | A. | 75% of the closing price of the shares of NVX on the TSXV before announcement of the terms of this<br>LOI by NVX; and | | --- | --- | | B. | CAD$0.11; and | | --- | --- | | (ii) | NV Gold having incurred CAD$50,000 in exploration expenditures on the Property; | | --- | --- | | d) | on or before the second anniversary of the 2^nd^ Payment Date: | | --- | --- | | (i) | NV Gold paying US$25,000 to the Vendor; | | --- | --- | | (ii) | NVX issuing CAD$75,000 in shares of NVX to the Vendor, calculated using a deemed price equal to<br>the 20-day VWAP ending on the date two days before the date of payment, subject to the deemed price being not less than the Deemed<br>Price Floor; and | | --- | --- | | (iii) | NV Gold having incurred CAD$100,000 in cumulative exploration expenditures on the Property; | | --- | --- | | e) | on or before the third anniversary of the 2^nd^ Payment Date: | | --- | --- | | (i) | NV Gold paying US$25,000 to the Vendor; | | --- | --- | | (ii) | NVX issuing CAD$100,000 in shares of NVX to the Vendor, calculated using a deemed price equal to<br>the 20-day VWAP ending on the date two days before the date of payment, subject to the deemed price being not less than the Deemed<br>Price Floor; and | | --- | --- | | (iii) | NV Gold having incurred CAD$150,000 in cumulative exploration expenditures on the Property; | | --- | --- | | f) | on or before the fourth anniversary of the 2^nd^ Payment Date: | | --- | --- | | (i) | NV Gold paying US$25,000 to the Vendor; | | --- | --- | | (ii) | NVX issuing CAD$125,000 in shares of NVX to the Vendor, calculated using a deemed price equal to<br>the 20-day VWAP ending on the date two days before the date of payment, subject to the deemed price being not less than the Deemed<br>Price Floor; and | | --- | --- | | (iii) | NV Gold having incurred CAD$200,000 in cumulative exploration expenditures on the Property; | | --- | --- | | g) | on or before the fifth anniversary of the 2^nd^ Payment Date: | | --- | --- | | (i) | NV Gold paying US$25,000 to the Vendor; | | --- | --- | | (ii) | NVX issuing CAD$150,000 in shares of NVX to the Vendor, calculated using a deemed price equal to<br>the 20-day VWAP ending on the date two days before the date of payment, subject to the 20-day VWAP being not less than the Deemed<br>Price Floor; and | | --- | --- | | (iii) | NV Gold having incurred CAD$225,000 in cumulative exploration expenditures on the Property, | | --- | --- |

(collectively, such payments being the “Purchase Payments”). If NV Gold and NVX make the Purchase Payments before termination of this LOI, NV Gold will be deemed to have purchased a 100% interest in the Property and the Vendor shall immediately undertake all actions necessary to transfer and register 100% of the Property to NV Gold.

| 2 |

| --- |

For greater certainty, each of the payments above are optional at NV Gold’s election, but if NV Gold and NVX make all of the above payments to the Vendor, NV Gold will have purchased a 100% interest in the Property and the Property Data and the Vendor shall immediately undertake all actions necessary to transfer and register 100% of the Property and the Property Data to NV Gold. The Vendor also agrees to transfer to NV Gold any bonding in place in respect of any work performed or to be performed on the Property.

For the purposes of this LOI, the term “exploration expenditures” shall refer to costs incurred on reclamation of the Property and on exploration and development activities directed towards discovery, delineation, disclosure and definition of an ore body on the Property (but, for greater certainty, excluding payments required to maintain the Property in good standing), monies expended in paying the fees, wages, salaries, travelling expenses and fringe benefits of all persons engaged in work with respect to or for the benefit of the Property and which are attributable to such persons work on the Property and an overhead fee equal to 10% of exploration expenditures incurred by NV Gold in relation to the Property, except third party contracts which exceed $50,000 in a single year for which the overhead fee will be 5%.

If NV Gold or NVX fail to pay any of the monetary or share payments to the Vendor within the relevant time period set out above or breaches its obligations with respect to the maintenance and administration of the Property claims set out below, the Vendor may terminate this LOI after first serving notice on NV Gold and giving NV Gold 20 business days to remedy such default (or, in the case of default with respect to failing to keep the Property free and clear of all mortgages, charges, caveats, security interests and other encumbrances arising from its activities on or in respect of the Property, 20 business days to commence action to remedy the default). If NV Gold has not remedied (or commenced action to remedy) the non-payment or breach within such period this LOI will terminate and, upon such termination, NV Gold will not have any further rights or interests in relation to Property.

2. Due Diligence Period

During the period between the date of this LOI and the 2^nd^ Payment Date (the “Due Diligence Period”) the Vendor agrees that:

i. it will allow NV Gold and its authorized representatives, including legal counsel and consultants,<br>access to the Property and to all information, books, records or other documents in the Vendor’s possession pertaining to<br>the Property; and
ii. it will not, directly or indirectly, authorise or permit any officer, employee, representative<br>or agent thereof, to directly or indirectly solicit, initiate, encourage, engage in or respond to any inquiry or proposal regarding<br>a purchase, transfer or other dealing in the Property, or encourage or provide any information to any corporation or other entity<br>regarding an acquisition of the Property.
--- ---
3. Notice of Sale
--- ---

The Vendor agrees not to sell blocks the shares of NVX exceeding 100,000 shares in any 1 month period unless it has first advised NV Gold 60 days in advance of its intent to sell share blocks and the number of shares to be sold and given NV Gold the first right to designate a purchaser of the shares to be sold.

Under SEC Industry Guide 7 standards, a “final” or “bankable” feasibility study is required to report reserves. Currently we have not delineated “reserves” on any of our properties. We cannot be certain that any deposits at our properties will ever be confirmed or converted into SEC Industry Guide 7 compliant “reserves.” Investors are cautioned not to assume that all or any part of any “resource” estimates will ever be confirmed or converted into reserves or that they can be economically or legally extracted.
