Management’s
Discussion and Analysis



The following Management’s Discussion
and Analysis (“MD&A”) of the consolidated operating and financial performance of Claude Resources Inc. (“Claude”
or the “Company”) for the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011 is prepared as of March 27, 2013. This discussion
is the responsibility of Management and has been prepared using International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”),
as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board. This discussion should be read in conjunction with the Company’s
audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto. The Board of Directors has approved the disclosure presented herein.
All amounts referred to in this discussion are expressed in Canadian dollars, except where otherwise indicated.



Overview



Claude Resources Inc., incorporated pursuant
to the Canada Business Corporations Act, is a gold producer with shares listed on both the Toronto Stock Exchange (TSX-CRJ) and
the NYSE MKT (NYSE MKT-CGR). The Company is also engaged in the exploration and development of gold mineral reserves and mineral
resources. The Company’s entire asset base is located in Canada.



The Company’s revenue generating
asset is the 100 percent owned Seabee Gold Operation, located in northern Saskatchewan, which includes 43,900 acres (17,750 hectares)
and is comprised of five mineral leases and extensive surface infrastructure. Claude also owns 100 percent of the Amisk Gold Project
in northeastern Saskatchewan. The Amisk Gold Project is located 20 kilometres southwest of Flin Flon, Manitoba and hosts the Amisk
Gold Deposit and a large number of gold occurrences and prospects. At 99,800 acres (40,400 hectares), this gold and silver exploration
property is one of the largest land positions in the Flin Flon mineral district. Claude also owns 100 percent of the Madsen Property
located in the Red Lake gold camp of northwestern Ontario. The Madsen Project comprises over 10,000 acres (4,000 hectares) and
boasts historical production in excess of 2.4 million ounces, making it the third largest gold producer in the Red Lake camp in
Ontario, Canada. Infrastructure includes a fully functional 500 ton per day mill, a 4,125 foot deep shaft and permitted tailings
facility.(1)



The Company’s Seabee, Amisk and
Madsen properties contain large, long life mineral resources in the politically safe jurisdiction of Canada. All three properties,
and their related deposits, contain over one million ounces of gold in the ground inventory and have significant leverage to the
price of gold and provide valuable long-term opportunities for the Company and its shareholders. Management intends to further
develop shareholder value by maintaining and advancing these projects in a financially prudent manner, which will include the
monitoring of the attractiveness of these projects and the evaluation of alternatives to improve their economics.





Going Concern



The Company’s consolidated financial
statements have been prepared on the assumption that the Company will continue as a going concern and realize its assets and discharge
its liabilities in the normal course of business, which assumes the Company will be able to meet the mandatory debenture repayment
coming due on May 23, 2013 (Note 11). As at December 31, 2012, the Company has a working capital deficiency of $4.1 million. The
working capital deficiency results primarily from the Company’s debentures amounting to $9.7 million (Note 11) that are classified
as a current liability as their contractual repayments terms are due in less than one year.



As a part of the Company’s plan to
refinance the outstanding debenture obligations, the Company, subsequent to December 31, 2012, executed a non-binding term sheet
with Crown Capital Partners Inc. (“CCP”) for an additional long-term debt facility of $25.0 million (Note 22). The
Company is currently in final negotiations to close this new debt facility which will provide liquidity for the repayment of the
outstanding debentures as they come due on May 23, 2013. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to finalize and
close the debt facility at the terms specified in the non-binding term sheet, or at all. The uncertainty of closing the new debt
facility to refinance the Company’s working capital deficiency, attributable to the debenture repayment requirement in May
2013, results in a material uncertainty and therefore casts substantial doubt as to the Company’s ability to continue as
a going concern. If the Company is unable to finalize and close the debt facility, it would be required to obtain additional sources
of financing (debt or equity).



The Company’s financial statements
do not reflect adjustments that would be necessary if the going concern assumption were not appropriate. If the going concern basis
was not appropriate for these financial statements, then adjustments would be necessary to the carrying value of assets and liabilities,
the reported revenues and expenses, and the statement of financial position classifications used.

Seabee Gold Operation:



| | · | Approximately 41,000 metres of
regional drilling and 60,000 metres of underground drilling were completed during 2012. The Company’s focus was on L62 and
Santoy Gap deposit.
| | - | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

| | · | Exploration at Santoy Gap was
ongoing with one rig performing infill and step-out drilling. Santoy Gap drill results released during the fourth quarter extended
the mineralized system down-dip to 650 metres depth and along strike to the south toward the Santoy 8 deposit within the Santoy
Mine Complex. In addition, the program discovered a sub-parallel lens to the Santoy Gap, approximately 150 metres to the east.
Drill intercepts released during the fourth quarter continue to affirm the high prospectivity of the Santoy Regional Shear Zone,
hosting multiple deposits over a three kilometre strike length. Results from this drilling are included in the 2012 resource update
released during the first quarter of 2013.

For 2013, forecast gold production at the
Seabee Gold Operation is estimated to range from 50,000 ounces to 54,000 ounces. Unit costs for 2013 are expected to improve slightly
from 2012’s unit cash costs of $997 CDN per ounce. Quarterly operating results are expected to fluctuate throughout 2013;
as such, they will not necessarily be reflective of the full year average.

2012 Annual Management's Discussion and Analysis(in thousands of CDN dollars, except as otherwise noted)




Access to the Seabee Gold Operation is
by fixed wing aircraft to an airstrip located on the property. Large consumables (including diesel and propane) and items related
to the upgrading of the mining fleet and mine infrastructure are trucked to the site via a 60 kilometre annual winter ice road
from Brabant Lake on Highway 102. The winter ice road is typically in use from January through March. This seasonal trend of purchasing
and delivering inventories to the Seabee Gold Operation results in significant cash outflows during the first quarter of the year.

400 semi-trailer loads (2012 winter road – over 500 semi-trailer loads), a result of improved operating effectiveness and
fewer capital projects in 2013. The Company has also benefited from lower prices on several of its consumable inventory items,
year over year.



At current gold prices and forecast production,
Management believes that operating cash flows, in addition to the increased credit facilities negotiated during the first quarter
of 2013, will be sufficient to fund the 2013 Winter Ice Road resupply requirements and further development opportunities at the
Seabee Gold Operation. With respect to the Company’s outstanding debentures that mature in May of 2013, the Company believes
that the closing of the debt financing announced in January 2013 will provide sufficient funding for the redemption.



Capital



During 2013, capital expenditures are
expected to include continued investment and expected upgrades at the Seabee Gold Operation.



Capital expenditures at the Seabee Gold
Operation in 2013 are estimated to total approximately $31.9 million, funded from a combination of cash on hand, operating cash
flow and demand loans. This reduction from 2012 is due to the completion of several major projects, including the shaft extension.





|Table 1: Estimate of 2013 Capital Expenditures (millions) | 
|--------------------------------------------------------- | 





|Capital |  |  |  |

| |                    |  | $ | 31.9 |  |  |  |  | 





Development expenditures are expected to
be roughly equal between Seabee and Santoy. Sustaining capital costs include expenditures on equipment replacement and tailings
water treatment facilities. Expansion capital is expected to focus in the Santoy Gap area to support the Company’s Life of
Mine Plan and to generate future returns for the Company.



Exploration



Due to the success of its 2011 and 2012
exploration programs, Claude has elected to reduce its exploration spending during 2013 to $2.7 million from the $14.2 million
incurred during 2012. The Company’s exploration program is flexible enough to be adjusted throughout the year.





At the Seabee Gold Operation, exploration
expenditures will focus on low cost per ounce targets, proximal to infrastructure with the potential to materially impact near-term
production, drive resource growth and to positively impact the Company’s Mineral Reserves and Mineral Resources. The Seabee
Gold Operation, consisting of the producing Seabee Mine and Santoy Mine Complex, is Claude’s sole producing asset, has delivered
consistent exploration results, remains underexplored and has a number of advanced resource-stage/near-infrastructure targets.
Drilling at Seabee is anticipated to consist of the following:

At the Amisk Gold Project, Claude will
update its National Instrument 43-101 (“NI 43-101”) resource calculation in conjunction with the completion of the
Amisk PEA.



At Madsen, the 2013 operating costs are
estimated to be $2.2 million. Contingent on results of the scoping analysis, the operating budget will be re-evaluated.



Continued success from the Company’s
exploration programs should serve to:

Production and Unit Operating Costs
at the Seabee Gold Operation



The combination of strong average realized
gold prices per ounce during 2012 has offset the increased mine operating costs, year over year, resulting in improved operating
margins for the Company.



During 2012, the Company observed a six
percent improvement in Canadian dollar gold prices realized (2012 - $1,660 (U.S. $1,661); 2011 - $1,561 (U.S. $1,578) and increased
gold sales volume (2012 – 48,672 ounces; 2011 – 44,632 ounces).



Total Canadian dollar cash cost per ounce
of gold (2) for 2012 increased 10 percent to CDN $997 (U.S. $998) per ounce from CDN $908 (U.S. $918) in 2011, primarily
as a result of the higher direct mining costs, including labour, energy, maintenance and consumable costs, year over year.



Claude Resources Inc.Page 5


2012 Annual Management's Discussion and Analysis(in thousands of CDN dollars, except as otherwise noted)




During 2012, net cash margin (2)improved to $663 per ounce from $653 per ounce in 2011.



During 2013, the Company will continue
to focus on the profitability of the Seabee Gold Operation through a combination of improved grade control, cost controls (including
engaging external consultants to provide feedback and recommendations on improving operational efficiencies) and developing the
production profile at lower cost satellite ore bodies, including the Santoy 8 and Santoy Gap deposits.



Safety, Health and the Environment



The Company strives to protect the safety
and health of its employees and the environment it operates in. Claude is continuing to look for ways to improve processes to
increase safety, health and environmental performance.



During 2012, the Company continued to
pursue best practices in the areas of Safety, Health and the Environment and its stated goal of “Mission Zero” in
matters related to Safety, Health and the Environment. Claude has expanded its Safety, Training and Environment Departments as
well as retained external professionals to conduct periodic reviews of its work practices, workplaces and Management Systems.
As part of Claude’s commitment towards “Zero Injury” and “Zero Environmental Exceedence”, the Company
established operational objectives of reducing these incidents year over year.



To measure its objectives relating to
safety, health and the environment, the Company utilizes a Safety, Health and Environment Managements System (“SHEMS”).
For Safety and Health, the Company utilizes the Total Recordable Incident Rate (“TRIR”) metric, a common industry
rating that is used to determine the number of serious injuries (medical incidents and higher) that a company has for every 200,000
hours worked. Management utilizes the TRIR metric because it considers all incidents that have caused serious harm to the Company’s
workforce, thereby enabling the Company to be more proactive with its policies and procedures designed to improve and maintain
safety.



Management believes having success in
these critical areas will place Claude in a position to be recognized as a leader in matters related to Safety, Health and the
Environment.



Resource Base







Results obtained from drilling completed
during 2012 from the Santoy Gap deposit were incorporated into, and had a material impact on, the Seabee Mine’s updated NI
43-101 resource calculation as at December 31, 2012 (Please see Claude news release “Claude Resources Inc. Increases Resource
Base and Grade at Santoy Gap” dated December 3, 2012). At December 31, 2012, Proven and Probable reserves in the Seabee Gold
Operation were 1,575,200 tonnes, grading 6.14 grams per tonne or 311,100 ounces of gold. Mineral Resources at the Seabee Gold Operation
included Measured and Indicated Mineral Resources of 344,200 ounces and Inferred Mineral Resources totalling 603,400 ounces.



Financial Capacity



During the first quarter of 2013, the
Company expanded its current debt facilities with its existing bank to $25.0 million and executed a non-binding term sheet with
Crown Capital Partners Inc. (“CCP”) for an additional debt facility of $25.0 million (please see financing section
below). The new debt facilities will facilitate the retirement of the Company’s outstanding debentures (which mature in
May 2013) and allow for the necessary expansion capital at Santoy Gap to support the updated Life of Mine Plan.



Strategically Attractive and Accretive
Transactions



Late in 2011, Claude and St. Eugene jointly
announced that they had entered into a definitive agreement pursuant to which Claude would acquire, by way of a court-approved
plan of arrangement, all of the shares of St. Eugene that it did not already own. The acquisition closed on February 1, 2012 and
is the logical consolidation of the Amisk Gold Project, including its mineral resources. Claude issued 8.7 million shares as consideration
for St. Eugene.



Claude Resources Inc.Page 6

Looking forward, Management remains focused
on executing strategically attractive and accretive transactions that are consistent with the strategic plan and focus of the
Company.



Shareholder Value



Management believes that, with current
market conditions and share performance, the Company is undervalued. However, the Company continues to make what it believes to
be the best decisions to maximize shareholder value. These decisions include:

In addition to the above, the Company has
added seven new managers at the Seabee Gold Operation with a combined 75 years of operating experience. With the continued support
from a strong gold price and expanding resources, Claude is confident that the combination of the Company’s Seabee, Amisk
and Madsen properties provide a strong production and asset base in established politically safe Canadian mining and exploration
districts.

Results



Seabee Gold Operation



At the Seabee Gold Operation, Claude is
focused on executing the expansion of its production profile and lowering unit costs over the next several years by maximizing
gold output from the near surface Santoy 8 and Santoy Gap deposits as well as increasing margins at the Seabee Mine via the shaft
extension project which will provide more efficient transportation of ore and waste from the Seabee Deep and L62 deposits.



The Company is also continuing with its
review of operating processes and procedures to identify and implement efficiencies designed to increase production and lower
operating costs.



During 2012, the Company milled 275,235
tonnes at a grade of 5.86 grams of gold per tonne (2011 – 257,181 tonnes at a grade of 5.68 grams of gold per tonne). With
mill recoveries relatively unchanged year over year, the increase in ounces produced is attributable to increased tonnes milled
and slightly grade. The increase in tonnes milled and lower grade year over year was due to increased mining activity at the lower
grade Santoy 8 deposit offset by fewer tonnes from Seabee, a function of mine sequencing and development schedules.

Seabee Mine



During 2012, the Seabee Mine produced
32,626 ounces (2011 – 31,448 ounces). This increase was attributable to a 13 percent increase in grade offset by a decrease
in tonnes milled which were impacted by prioritization of the Shaft Extension Project.

At the L62 Zone, the series of intercepts
with above average true widths and economic gold grades represent a near term opportunity to improve operating margins at the
Seabee Operation. These intercepts are near existing underground infrastructure. Development at the L62 Zone was initiated during
the third quarter with long-hole production initiated during the fourth quarter.



Santoy Mine Complex



During 2012, the Santoy Mine Complex produced
16,944 ounces of gold (2011 – 13,308). These results were attributable to increased tonnes partially offset by a decrease
in grade. Tonnage throughput per day was in line with Management’s expectation for 2012 and is expected to increase during
2013.

Capital Projects



Mill



The Seabee Gold Operation’s Mill
consists of a single stage crushing circuit and a two stage grinding circuit, followed by leaching. The Mill has been expanded
to a peak capacity of 1,050 tonnes, with the operation capable of sustaining approximately 850 tonnes per day on average under
the Seabee Gold Operation’s current Life of Mine Plan. During the first half of 2012, major upgrade work on the #1 regrind
ball mill and an upgrade to the CIP tanks was completed. An eight day planned shutdown, originally scheduled for the third quarter,
was completed early in the fourth quarter. Stockpiling of ore occurred during the shutdown and full year production numbers were
not impacted.



Further expansions to the Mill are being
evaluated to accommodate future sustained capacity and production increases expected from the L62 Zone and the Santoy Gap deposit.



Shaft Extension





The Company’s shaft extension project
at the Seabee Mine deepened the shaft from 600 metres to 980 metres. After a 20 day shutdown, this project was completed early
in the first quarter of 2013. During the 20 day shutdown the Company was able to maintain production that averaged over 700 tonnes
per day throughput to the Seabee Mill which originated from the Santoy Mine Complex and from the upper portions of the Seabee Mine.
During the shutdown the Company continued underground development and mining at Seabee Deep and L62 between the 900 and 1100 metre
levels.



The shaft extension project was undertaken
to provide more efficient transportation of ore and waste from underground to surface. The reduction of trucking distance and
ore handling are anticipated to result in lower diesel consumption, reduced maintenance costs and improved ventilation. Overall
Seabee Deep and L62 mining costs are expected to improve by as much as 10 percent per tonne.



Camp



In order to accommodate the increased
workforce at the Seabee Gold Operation, the Company’s Board of Directors approved upgrades to Seabee’s camp facilities.
Modular accommodation facilities were purchased and transported to the Seabee Gold Operation over the annual winter ice road with
installation completed early in the second quarter. In addition to the modular facilities, on site construction of other new accommodations
began during the first quarter with occupancy beginning late in the third quarter.



Exploration Results





Claude continued to advance its exploration
and development strategy during 2012. Exploration at the Seabee Gold Operation focused on expanding and delineating the L62 Zone
and Santoy Gap deposit and advancing several regional targets. At the Amisk Gold Project, exploration during the year continued
to expand and confirm the NI 43-101 open-pit resource estimate. At Madsen, the Company completed its three-rig, surface and underground
drill program during 2012. The program focused on evaluating the 8 Zone Trend, the Austin and McVeigh Tuff and the Main Madsen
Trend below the 4,000 foot level.



All exploration activities were carried
out under the direction of Qualified Person, Brian Skanderbeg, P. Geo., Senior Vice President and Chief Operating Officer.



Seabee Gold Operation





The Seabee Gold Operation is located northeast
of La Ronge, Saskatchewan and is host to the producing Seabee Mine and Santoy Mine Complex as well as the L62 Zone, Santoy Gap
and Regional exploration targets.

Figure 1: Seabee Property regional
map showing significant gold deposits and occurrences.



At the Seabee Property, exploration in
2012 was successful in expanding the Gap while converting nearly half of the inferred ounces to an indicated resource. Drilling
tested over one kilometre of prospective strike-length north of Santoy Gap deposit toward the Santoy 7 deposit as well as completed
the proposed program at the Neptune target. The L62 deposit at Seabee was also expanded up-plunge during the fourth quarter and
has been incorporated into the Company’s December 31, 2012 Mineral Reserve and Mineral Resource estimate.



Santoy Region





The Santoy Region includes the Santoy 8
and Santoy Gap deposits, which are part of the Santoy Mine Complex. During 2013, exploration will focus on evaluating the down-plunge
extension of the Santoy Gap and Santoy 8A deposits, expanding recently discovered parallel zones near the Santoy Region and on
initial drill testing of several near-Seabee targets. Infill drilling at the Santoy Gap deposit will also be prioritized to convert
additional ounces from the inferred to indicated category.



Gold mineralization at the Santoy Region
is hosted in siliceous, shear structures with sulfide-chlorite-quartz veins and in silicified granitoid sills. The mineralized
lenses dip moderately to steeply eastward and are amenable to bulk mining techniques. Gold mineralization of the Santoy 8 ore
lens occurs over a strike length of 600 metres, a depth of 500 metres and remains open along strike and down plunge to the north.
The Santoy 8E ore lens has been intercepted over a strike length of 200 metres, depth of 250 metres and remains open along strike
and down plunge to the north. The true thickness of the Santoy 8 deposits varies from 1.5 metres to 15 metres.



The Santoy Gap deposit is located 400
to 900 metres north of underground infrastructure, immediately on strike and adjacent to the Santoy 8 deposit within the Santoy
Mine Complex. The Company’s 2012 exploration program focused on aggressively exploring the Santoy Gap deposit and its relationship
to the Santoy 8 ore body to depths up to 750 metres. Infill and exploration drilling continued to confirm and expand the Santoy
Gap system.



Claude Resources Inc.Page 10


2012 Annual Management's Discussion and Analysis(in thousands of CDN dollars, except as otherwise noted)




A total of 71 holes and 35,000 metres
were completed in and around the Santoy Gap and along the Santoy Regional Shear Zone during 2012. The Santoy Gap system remains
open down plunge to the north, along strike to the south and at depth. These recent intercepts at depth may link with the existing
Santoy 8 resource 300 metres to the south.



Highlights from 2012 Santoy Gap drilling

In addition to extending the mineralized
system, the program discovered a sub-parallel lens to the Santoy Gap, approximately 150 metres to the east. These latest drill
intercepts continue to affirm the high prospectivity of the Santoy Regional Shear Zone, hosting multiple deposits over a three
kilometre strike length.



Based on the Santoy Gap inferred resource,
positive exploration results and proximity to the existing Santoy 8 infrastructure, the Company has initiated an 850 metre long
exploration drift to allow for infill drilling and upgrading of the inferred resource.







Figure 3: Map of the Santoy Region



L62 Zone



The L62 Zone is located approximately
200 metres from existing Seabee Underground infrastructure on multiple levels. Exploration of this Zone defined a resource base
between 500 and 1,000 metres below surface. Drilling continued during the fourth quarter of 2012 and will continue through the
first half of 2013. The deposit remains open up dip and results have been incorporated into the Company’s 2012 year-end
Mineral Reserve and Mineral Resource update.

Section (L62 Zone Discovery)



Seabee Regional



Exploration of the Seabee Regional area
has included work in the Pine, Pigeon and Laonil Lake areas. Grass roots work has focused on examining these prospective regional
structures.



Amisk Gold Project



The potential of the Amisk Gold Project
continues to be critically evaluated by the Company. The Amisk Gold Project is located in the Flin Flon-Snow Lake Greenstone Belt.
The project is host to the Amisk Gold Deposit as well as a large number of gold occurrences and prospects.



While the Amisk PEA is advanced, future
exploration at Amisk during 2013 has been reduced and is dependent to some degree on the results of the Amisk PEA. The 2012 regional
exploration campaign at Amisk investigated a number of high-priority targets, some of which warrant further testing in 2013. Consultants
will be used to re-interpret historical geophysical data in order to rank and prioritize regional drill targets. Regional potential
remains high and exploration maturity low. Field work and extensive compilation in 2012 have resulted in the emergence of an extensive
list of exploration targets that are currently being prioritized for assessment in 2013. Completion of the Amisk PEA is expected
during Q2 2013.





During 2012, the Company also staked an
additional 16,033 hectares on the western portion of the Amisk Gold Project during 2012. During the second half of 2012, on the
Company’s newly acquired claims and western block of the Amisk Gold Project, reconnaissance work occurred with the goal of
identifying similarities to Amisk’s historical geology and for potential drill targets. The newly acquired claims host potential
for Amisk-style gold-silver (“Au-Ag”) mineralization as well as conventional base-metal deposits typical of the Flin
Flon belt. No drilling is planned for 2013 on the newly acquired claims; however, the Company expects to continue with target development,
ranking and ground-base reconnaissance in the area.

Results from a summer historic core sampling
program and 2011 and 2012 drilling expanded the mineralized system and confirmed grade continuity of the resource model. Gold
and silver mineralization is associated with a sequence of quartz porphyritic, rhyolitic lapilli tuffs and flows hosting disseminations
and stringers of pyrite, sphalerite, galena, tetrahedrite and chalcopyrite. Drilling has intercepted the mineralized system over
a strike length of 1,200 metres, width of 400 metres and depths of in excess of 600 metres. The system remains open to the southwest,
southeast, northwest and at depth.

Figure 6: Cross Section A-A’
of the Amisk Gold Property



The Company’s 2011 and 2012 drill
programs at Amisk focused specifically on testing the limits of the mineralized footprint north of the current pit outline, targeting
depth extension below the pit bottom and infill drilling to evaluate potential upgrade of categories in the resource estimate
completed by SRK. Drilling successfully confirmed continuity of gold mineralization within the northern and eastern portion of
the deposit as well as demonstrated the potential for expansion to the east and southeast.



Mineralization intercepted in the drilling
is consistent with the current resource model and is associated with a sequence of quartz porphyritic, rhyolitic lapilli tuffs
and basaltic tuffs and argillite hosting disseminations, stringers and semi-massive intervals of pyrite, sphalerite, galena, tetrahedrite,
pyrrhotite and chalcopyrite. Drill hole AL-11-319 confirmed continuity of gold mineralization within the southeastern portion
of the deposit as well as demonstrated the potential for expansion to the east and southeast.



The program tested from surface to in
excess of 700 metres depth and was designed to expand the limits of the Amisk Gold deposit as well as infill within the northern
and eastern portion of the deposit.



During 2011, the Company reported positive
metallurgical testwork results at the Amisk Gold Project. Initial metallurgical testing indicates that gold and silver mineralization
is amenable to conventional cyanide leaching. Results from testing on three composite samples from the Amisk Gold Deposit have
returned an average of 89.4 percent recovery for gold, ranging from 85.2 percent to 91.7 percent and an average of 80.8 percent
recovery for silver, ranging from 66.4 percent to 92.8 percent. Detailed results are presented in the table below.

During 2012, in addition to focusing on
growth of the gold and silver resource base, the presence of significant grades of zinc and lead in the hanging wall were evaluated
and further evaluation of pit-proximal base-metal targets has resulted in advancement of these targets to a drill-ready stage.
Work on the external Amisk PEA continued during 2012 and an initial draft is expected to be received during the second quarter
of 2013. Looking forward at Amisk, exploration will focus on completion of preliminary economic studies and further evaluation
of the underground potential.



Madsen Project





Following the four year advanced exploration
program and moving into 2013, Claude plans to advance the Madsen project into a scoping level study as well as evaluate further
surface exploration targets. The evaluation will provide key input into a decision to advance a Madsen PEA, conceptually evaluating
the value and development potential of all significant resource domains.



The Madsen Mine property currently hosts
a NI 43-101 compliant Indicated Resource of 928,000 ounces at 8.93 grams per tonne and an Inferred Resource of 297,000 ounces at
11.74 grams per tonne. The property also hosts significant surface and underground infrastructure including a permitted tailings
facility, 500 tonne per day mill and a 1,250 metre deep shaft.

Figure 8: Madsen Property Overview



Exploration efforts at the Madsen Project
continued to focus on the 8 Zone Trend which hosts the past-producing 8 Zone and is highly prospective for future high grade discoveries.
During 2012, Phase II underground and surface drilling completed 16 holes totaling over 19,000 metres. Targeting the 8 Zone plunge
and strike continuity as well as the Austin and McVeigh Tuff plunge continuity, the Company utilized two underground drill rigs,
active on the 16th level, and one surface drill rig. Drilling continued to expand the 8 Zone plunge at depth and demonstrated
significant depth extension to the Austin and McVeigh Tuff. Encouraging results were returned from the 2012 program, extending
the 8 Zone system at depth and confirming conceptual potential beneath the Austin Tuff.



8 Zone



During 2012, Phase II underground drilling
continued from the 16th level which provides the ideal drill platform to explore both at depth as well as the strike
potential of the 8 Zone Trend. A total of nine drill holes, targeting the down plunge continuity of the 8 Zone, were completed
in 2012. Drill holes MUG-12-20, -26, -28 and -30 confirmed plunge continuity, returning visible-gold bearing intercepts of up to
26.50 grams per tonne over 2.00 metres. Drill hole MUG-12-25b intercepted a strong footwall zone returning 14.55 grams per tonne
over 2.00 metres. These intercepts confirmed the 8 Zone system 250 metres down plunge from historic mining as well as indicate
potential for high grade, sub-parallel lenses. The system continues to remain open down plunge and along strike to the east.



Drill holes targeting the western strike
continuity of the 8 Zone include MUG-11-19, MUG-12-21, -22, -23 and -24 (Figure 9). Drill hole 21 intercepted silicified, biotite-altered
basalt and returned gold assays of 9.53 grams per tonne over 2.00 metres, approximately 850 metres below surface. This intercept
is in the hanging-wall of the 8 Zone system and interpreted to correlate with and be an extension of the Austin Tuff. Importantly,
2011 drilling in this area intercepted several high grade intervals within the McVeigh Tuff. The combination of well-mineralized
Austin and McVeigh intercepts, 500 metres along strike and west from historic stopes, indicates the potential for a new shoot development.

Figure 9: 8 Zone Longitudinal Section



Drill holes targeting the strike continuity
of the 8 Zone included MUG-11-10, 11, 13, 15, 17 and 19. Drill hole 13 and drill hole 17 intercepted silicified, biotite-altered
basalt and returned 15.70 grams per tonne over 2.00 metres and 53.70 grams per tonne over 0.70 metres, approximately 950 metres
below surface. These intercepts are in the hanging-wall of the 8 Zone system and interpreted to correlate with and be an extension
of the McVeigh Tuff, located approximately 650 metres up-dip. The McVeigh Tuff hosts a current Indicated Resource of 115,000 ounces
at 9.59 grams per tonne and has seen very limited drill testing below 350 metres. In addition to the McVeigh mineralization, the
8 Zone structure is developed in all holes completed along strike and is characterized by anomalous gold associated with biotite-altered,
variably silicified basaltic and ultramafic lithologies.

Results obtained from 2011 and 2012 drilling
have been encouraging and continue to demonstrate that the 8 Zone is a high grade gold system that has strong vertical continuity
and remains open at depth and along strike to the northeast. Furthermore, the discovery of economic grades and widths hosted within
the depth continuity of the McVeigh Tuff opens up significant exploration potential. During 2013, Claude plans to advance the Madsen
project into a scoping level study as well as evaluate further surface exploration targets.



Austin and McVeigh Tuffs





In addition to Phase II underground drilling,
the Company completed three deep surface drill holes to evaluate the Austin Tuff at elevations of 1,200 to 2,000 metres below surface.
Drill holes AD-11-01, AD-12-01b and -02a intercepted widespread alteration and mineralization, returning gold assays of up to 14.30
grams per tonne over 2.00 metres. These holes are the deepest completed to date on the property and confirm the development of
the Austin Tuff 700 metres below historic mine stopes. The Austin Tuff continues to remain open down plunge and along strike to
the east.



Quality Assurance and Quality Control
Procedures



Rigorous quality assurance and quality
control procedures have been implemented including the use of blanks, standards and duplicates. Geochemical analyses were submitted
to ALS Chemex in Vancouver, British Columbia and or the Seabee minesite lab. The former laboratory is ISO approved. Core samples
were analyzed by a 30 gram gold fire assay with an atomic absorption and gravimetric and or screen fire finish.



Mineral Reserves and
Mineral Resources



The Mineral Reserves and Mineral Resources
estimates are conducted under the direction of Qualified Persons Brian Skanderbeg, P.Geo., Senior Vice President and Chief Operating
Officer and Peter Longo, P.Eng., Vice President, Operations.



Seabee Gold Operation



At December 31, 2012, Proven and Probable
Reserves in the Seabee Gold Operation were 1,575,200 tonnes, grading 6.14 grams per tonne or 311,100 ounces of gold. The Company’s
Mineral Resources at its Seabee Gold Operation included Measured and Indicated Mineral Resources of 344,200 ounces and Inferred
Mineral Resources totalling 603,400 ounces.





Results obtained from drilling completed
during 2012 from the Santoy Gap deposit were incorporated into and had a material impact on the Seabee Operation’s updated

The Company’s independent NI 43-101
Mineral Resource evaluation for the Madsen Mine was completed by SRK in December 2010. This Mineral Resource evaluation was based
on historical exploration and mining data, Phase I underground drilling results up to September 27, 2009 and geological and resource
modeling. The Mineral Resource evaluation was undertaken on the four separate zones, Austin, South Austin, McVeigh and 8 Zone that
comprise the Madsen Gold Mine. The NI 43-101 Technical Report was filed on January 20, 2010.



The mineral resources of the Madsen Exploration
Project are sensitive to the selection of cut-off grade. The global quantities and grade estimates at three gold cut-off grades
are presented in Table 13. The reader is cautioned that the figures presented in this table should not be misconstrued with the
mineral resource statement. The figures are only presented to show the sensitivity of the mineral resources to the selection of

The increase
in ounces sold and in average realized price per ounce, partially offset by increased production costs, has positively impacted
net cash margin per ounce sold year over year. The Company intends to improve profitability of the Seabee Gold Operation through
a combination of improved grade control, cost controls and developing the production profile at lower cost satellite ore bodies,
including Santoy 8 and eventually the Santoy Gap deposit. Also, in addition to external consultants being engaged to provide feedback
and recommendations on improving operational efficiencies reducing unit operating costs, the Company anticipates that the continued
contribution of the Santoy Mine Complex (including the Santoy 8 and Santoy Gap deposits), contribution of ore from the L62 Zone
and completion of the shaft extension will be positive catalysts in improving production and lowering overall unit operating costs
at the Seabee Gold Operation.

Net Profit





For the year ended December 31, 2012, the
Company recorded net profit of $5.6 million, or $0.03 per share, after a $3.0 million non-cash deferred income tax expense. This
compares to a net profit of $9.5 million, or $0.06 per share, after a $0.4 million non-cash deferred income tax expense, for the
year ended December 31, 2011 (2010 – $10.3 million, or $0.08 per share). Profit from continuing operations before income
tax in 2012 was $8.5 million, or $0.05 per share (2011 - $9.8 million, or $0.06 per share; 2010 - $8.3 million, or $0.05 per share),
reflecting a change in the Company’s deferred tax base year over year.



Three-year trend



The Company’s profit trends with
changes in revenue, which has been significantly impacted by the price of gold, and is offset by increasing production costs attributable
to increasing labour and input costs. Management is focused on continuing to pursue best practices intended to stabilize unit production
costs and has engaged external consultants to provide additional feedback and recommendations on improving operational efficiencies.



Revenue



In the discussion below, gold revenues
for the comparable figures in 2010, net of expenditures, from projects not yet in commercial production have not been included
in earnings; rather, these amounts have been offset against the carrying value of the assets.



Gold revenue from the Company’s Seabee
Gold Operation for the year ended December 31, 2012 increased 16 percent to $80.8 million from $69.7 million reported for the year
ended December 31, 2011 (December 31, 2010 - $56.0 million).



Claude Resources Inc.Page 23


2012 Annual Management's Discussion and Analysis(in thousands of CDN dollars, except as otherwise noted)




Three-year trend



The increase in gold revenue in 2012 was
attributable to a six percent improvement in Canadian dollar gold prices realized (2012 - $1,660 (U.S. $1,661); 2011 - $1,561 (U.S.
$1,578); and 2010 - $1,273 (U.S. $1,236)) and by increased gold sales volume (2012 – 48,672 ounces; 2011 – 44,632 ounces;
and 2010 – 44,003 ounces). The increase in realized price for the year period ended December 31, 2012 reflects the increase
in market gold prices which averaged U.S. $1,669 per ounce during 2012 compared to market gold prices of U.S. $1,572 per ounce
during 2011 (2010 – U.S. $1,224).







Figure 12: Average Gold Price (London PM Fix – US$)



Production Costs



For the year ended December 31, 2012, mine
production costs of $48.5 million (2011 - $40.5 million) were 20 percent higher year over year. This increase was primarily attributable
to increased personnel, wage increases and increases in mining and maintenance costs.





Total cash cost per ounce of gold (2)
for 2012 increased 10 percent to CDN $997 (U.S. $998) per ounce from CDN $908 (U.S. $918) in 2011, primarily as a result of the
higher direct mining costs, including labour, energy, maintenance and consumable costs, year over year. The Company is continuing
to pursue best practices with the intention of lowering these costs.



Depreciation and Depletion





For the year ended December 31, 2012, depreciation
and depletion was $15.7 million (2011 - $11.4 million), up 38 percent year over year. These results are attributable to an increase
in tonnes throughput and an increase in the Seabee Gold Operation’s asset base.



General and Administrative Expense



General and administrative expense for
the year ended December 31, 2012 increased to $7.9 million, up 16 percent from the $6.8 million reported in 2011. The variances
noted below primarily relate to increases in personnel, stock-based compensation and professional fees.

Finance Expense



Finance expense includes interest expense,
accretion expense and derivative gains or losses (if any). For the year ended December 31, 2012, finance expense was $1.5 million,
down 52 percent from the $3.1 million reported during 2011. The decreases were attributable to the Company settling certain out-of-the-money
derivative instruments during the third quarter of 2011.



Finance and Other Income



Finance and other income consists of interest
income, production royalties pursuant to the Red Mile transactions and other income. For the year ended December 31, 2012, finance
and other income of $1.5 million was relatively unchanged year over year.



Deferred Income Tax Expense





Deferred income tax expense for the year
ended December 31, 2012 was $3.0 million (2011 - $0.4 million). This increase in this expense is primarily attributable to the
recognition of previously unrecognized deferred tax assets in 2011 of approximately $3.8 million.



Liquidity, Financial Resources and Capital Structure



The Company monitors its spending plans,
repayment obligations and cash resources on a continuous basis with the objective of ensuring that there is sufficient capital
within the Company to meet business requirements, after taking into account cash flows from operations and the Company’s
holdings of cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments. The Company’s typical cash requirement over the first and
second quarters of each year is significant because of the Seabee Gold Operation’s winter ice road resupply, which includes
restocking diesel, propane and other large consumables as well as the continued investment in maintenance and growth capital relating
to the mining fleet and mine infrastructure.



The Company had bank indebtedness of $3.5
million at December 31, 2012 (December 31, 2011 - $2.5 million of cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments of $33.2
million).



At December 31, 2012, the Company had a
working capital deficiency of $4.1 million (December 31, 2011 - surplus of $42.4 million). Included in the working capital calculation
at December 31, 2012 are demand loans and outstanding debentures totaling $5.3 million and $9.7 million, respectively. Demand loans
have been classified as current liabilities due to their demand feature. As the debenture is due in less than one year, its balance
has been classified as a current liability.

|Current ratio                               | 



The Company’s objective when managing
capital is to safeguard its ability to continue as a going concern so that it can continue to provide adequate returns to shareholders
and benefits to other stakeholders. The Company manages the capital structure and makes adjustments to it in light of changes in
economic conditions and the risk characteristics of the underlying assets. In order to maintain or adjust the capital structure,
the Company may issue new shares, sell assets or incur debt. The Company is not subject to externally imposed capital requirements.



Claude Resources Inc.Page 25


2012 Annual Management's Discussion and Analysis(in thousands of CDN dollars, except as otherwise noted)




The Company’s capital structure is
comprised of a combination of short-term and long-term debt and shareholders’ equity.

The Capital structure of the Company is
as follows:

In January 2013, the Company expanded its
current debt facilities with its existing bank to $25.0 million and executed a non-binding term sheet with CCP for an additional
long-term debt facility of $25.0 million (please see financing section below). The new debt facilities are intended for the retirement
of the Company’s outstanding debentures (which mature in May 2013), for expansion capital at the Seabee Gold Operation and
for general working capital purposes.

Financial and Other Instruments



In the normal course of its operations,
the Company is exposed to gold price, foreign exchange, interest rate, liquidity, equity price and counterparty risks. The overall
financial risk management program focuses on preservation of capital and protecting current and future Company assets and cash
flows by reducing exposure to risks posed by the uncertainties and volatilities of financial markets.



The Company may use derivative financial
instruments to hedge some of its exposure to fluctuations in gold prices and foreign exchange rates. The Company does not acquire,
hold or issue derivatives for trading purposes. The Company’s management of financial risks is aimed at ensuring that net
cash flows are sufficient to meet all its financial commitments as and when they fall due and to maintain the capacity to fund
its forecast project development and exploration strategies.

The value of the Company’s mineral
resources is related to the price of gold and the outlook for this mineral. Gold and precious metal prices historically have fluctuated
widely and are affected by numerous factors outside of the Company’s control, including, but not limited to, industrial and
retail demand, central bank lending, forward sales by producers and speculators, levels of worldwide production, short-term changes
in supply and demand because of speculative hedging activities and certain other factors related specifically to gold. The profitability
of the Company’s operations is highly correlated to the market price of gold. If the gold price declines below the cost of
production at the Company’s operations, for a prolonged period of time, it may not be economically feasible to continue production.



The Company’s revenues from the production
and sale of gold are denominated in U.S. dollars. However, the Company’s operating expenses are primarily incurred in Canadian
dollars and its liabilities are primarily denominated in Canadian dollars. The results of the Company’s operations are subject
to currency risks. The operating results and financial position of the Company are reported in Canadian dollars in the Company’s
consolidated financial statements.



The Company did not have any derivative
instruments outstanding at December 31, 2012 or December 31, 2011. The Company’s main interest rate risk arises from interest
earning cash deposits that expose the Company to interest rate risk.



The Company’s liquidity position
is managed to ensure sufficient liquid funds are available to meet its financial obligations in a timely manner. The Company manages
liquidity risk by continuously monitoring forecast and actual cash flows and ensuring that the Company has the ability to access
required funding.



The Company is exposed to equity securities
price risk arising from investments classified on the balance sheet as available-for-sale. Investments in equity securities are
approved by the Board on a case-by-case basis. All of the Company’s available-for-sale equity investments are in junior resource
companies listed on the TSX Venture Exchange.



The Company is exposed to counterparty
risk which is the risk that a counterparty will not complete its obligations under a financial instrument resulting in a financial
loss for the Company. The Company does not generally obtain collateral or other security to support financial instruments subject
to credit risk; however, the Company only deals with credit worthy counterparties. Accounts receivable comprise institutions purchasing
gold under normal settlement terms of two working days. Counterparty risk under derivative financial instruments is to reputable
institutions. All significant cash balances are on deposit with high-rated banking institutions. The carrying amount of financial
assets recorded in the financial statements represents the Company’s maximum exposure to credit risk without taking account
of the value of any collateral or other security obtained.



Contractual Obligations



The Company’s contractual and other
obligations as at December 31, 2012 are summarized as follows:

2012 Annual Management's Discussion and Analysis(in thousands of CDN dollars, except as otherwise noted)




During 2012 (and subsequent to December
31, 2012), the Company has been updating its decommissioning and reclamation plans for the Madsen and Seabee properties. It is
expected that additional security (approximately $6.5 million) will need to be provided to the applicable regulatory authorities.
However, the timing of this security has not yet been determined.



As noted above, near-term funding requirements
pursuant to the redemption of its outstanding debentures (due on May 23, 2013), have placed the Company in a working capital deficiency.
In order to address this working capital deficiency, the Company, subsequentto December 31,
2012, increased its current debt facilities with CWB to the following:



| | · | $10.0 million operating line of credit (previous amount:
$5.0 million);
| | - | -----------------------------------------------------------------------

| | · | $10.0 million finance lease line (previous amount:
$7.0 million); and
| | - | ---------------------------------------------------------------------

| | · | $5.0 million revolving loan (new).
| | - | ----------------------------------





In addition to the above, the Company has
executed a non-binding term sheet with CCP for an additional long-term debt facility of $25.0 million (Note 22). As of the date
of this MD&A, the Company is in negotiations to close the CCP debt facility. Management believes that repayment of the outstanding
debentures will occur as required on May 23, 2013. If for any reason the Company is unable to close the CCP debt facility, it could
have an impact on the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern and realize assets at their recognized values and
to extinguish liabilities in the normal course of business at the amounts stated in the consolidated financial statements.

|Non-current liabilities                                | 



The Company’s total assets were $234.5
million at December 31, 2012, compared to $207.9 million at December 31, 2011; Claude’s asset base primarily consists of
non-current assets comprising mineral properties, reflecting the capital intensive nature of the exploration and mining business
and the impact of the significant capital expenditures relating to its operations and exploration projects. The $26.6 million net
increase resulted from increases of: $5.8 million in Inventories; $2.1 million in accounts receivable, attributable to the timing
of gold sales and receipt of funds; and $57.8 million in Mineral properties attributable to Seabee Mine development and shaft extension,
exploration costs (focusing on the Santoy Gap deposit, Seabee North, Amisk and Madsen exploration projects) and additions to property,
plant and equipment. These increases were offset by decreases of: $35.7 million in Cash and cash equivalents and Short-term investments,
attributable to the Company’s annual winter road resupply and investment in exploration and Seabee capital projects; $1.0
million in Deferred income tax asset attributable to a change in the Company’s deferred tax base; and $2.5 million in Investments
due to the disposition of certain of the Company’s available for sale securities and a decrease in the market value of the
remainder these securities.





Total liabilities were $42.2 million at
December 31, 2012, up $7.2 million from December 31, 2011. This result was attributable to a $3.5 million increase in bank indebtedness
and a $1.8 million increase in Accounts payable and accrued liabilities, attributable to the timing and payment of expenditures
relating to consumables at the Seabee Gold Operation; a net increase of $2.3 million in the Company’s current and non-current
Loans and borrowings attributable to demand loans obtained to fund a portion of the capital equipment resupply at the Seabee Gold
Operation; an increase of $9.7 million to the Company’s current debenture payable (offset by a decrease to the long-term
portion of the debenture payable) due to the debenture being payable in less than one year; and an increase of $1.1 million in
Deferred income tax liability attributable to a change in the Company’s deferred tax base.

2012 Annual Management's Discussion and Analysis(in thousands of CDN dollars, except as otherwise noted)




Shareholders’ equity increased by
$19.5 million to $192.4 million at December 31, 2012, from $172.9 million at December 31, 2011. This variance is attributable to
an increase in Share capital of $12.7 million due to the issuance of Company stock pursuant to the acquisition of St. Eugene; an
increase of $1.9 million to Contributed surplus, a $5.6 million decrease to Accumulated deficit, a result of the net profit for
the year; and, a $0.6 million decrease to Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss).



Comprehensive income consists of net profit,
together with certain other economic gains and losses that are collectively referred to as “other comprehensive income (loss)”
or “OCI” and are excluded from the income statement. During the year ended December 31, 2012, other comprehensive income
decreased to a loss of $0.03 million (December 31, 2011 – comprehensive income of $0.6 million) due to the Company’s
disposition of certain available-for-sale securities.



Key Sensitivities



Earnings from Claude’s gold operation
are sensitive to fluctuations in both commodity and currency prices. The key factors and their approximate effect on earnings,
earnings per share and cash flow, based on assumptions comparable to 2012 actuals, are as follows:



Gold



For a U.S. $10 movement in gold price per
ounce, earnings and cash flow will have a corresponding movement of CDN $0.5 million, or $0.00 per share. For a $0.01 movement
in the US$/CDN$ exchange rate, earnings and cash flow will have a corresponding movement of $0.8 million, or $0.00 per share.



Grade



For a 0.25 gram per tonne movement in grade,
earnings and cash flow will have a corresponding movement of CDN $3.6 million, or $0.02 per share.



Selected
Quarterly Financial Data



For the quarter ended December 31, 2012,
the Company recorded a net profit of $2.4 million, or $0.01 per share, compared to a net loss of $0.2 million, or $0.00 per share,
for the comparable period in 2011.



Gold revenue generated during the fourth
quarter was $21.2 million, a seven percent increase over the $19.9 million reported for the same period in 2011. This was a result
of increased gold sales volume compared to the fourth quarter of 2011 (Q4 2012 – 12,732 ounces; Q4 2011 – 11,855 ounces)
offset by slightly lower Canadian dollar gold prices realized Q4 2012 - $1,668 (U.S. $1,683); Q4 2011 - $1,678 (U.S. $1,641).



For the three months ended December 31,
2012, total mine operating costs were $10.5 million, down $2.9 million period over period. Operating efficiencies being implemented
at the Seabee Gold Operation resulted in mining and maintenance costs being down period over period and resulted in a 27 percent
decrease in Canadian dollar cash operating cost per ounce: Q4 2012 – CDN $822 (U.S. $829); Q4 2011 – CDN $1,130 (U.S.
$1,105)



During the fourth quarter of 2012, depreciation,
depletion and accretion of the Company’s gold assets of $4.4 million represented a 13 percent increase compared to the $3.9
million reported during the comparable period in 2011. These results are attributable to a larger asset base being depreciated
period over period.

The financial results for the last eight
quarters reflect the following general trends: improved average realized gold price (which has improved gold revenue and net profit
(loss)); lower grade attributable to more feedstock from the Santoy 8 deposit; and increasing cash cost per ounce.



Accounting Estimates



Certain of the Company’s accounting
policies require that Management make decisions with respect to the formulation of estimates and assumptions that affect the reported
amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. Claude’s significant accounting policies are contained in Note 3 to
the consolidated financial statements. The following is a discussion of the accounting estimates that are critical in determining
the Company’s financial results.



Reserves



Estimation of reserves involves the exercise
of judgment. Forecasts are based on geological, geophysical, engineering and economic data, all of which are subject to many uncertainties
and interpretations. The Company expects that, over time, reserve estimates may be revised upward or downward based on updated
information. Such information may include revisions to geological data or assumptions, a change in economic data, and the results
of drilling and exploration activities. Reserve estimates can have a significant impact on net earnings, as they are a key component
in the calculation of depreciation and depletion. In addition, changes in reserve estimates, commodity prices and future operating
and capital costs can have a significant impact on the impairment assessments of the applicable assets.



Valuation of Properties



Claude assesses the carrying values of
its properties at the end of each reporting period, or more frequently if warranted by a change in circumstances, to determine
whether any indication of impairment exists. If it is determined that carrying values of assets cannot be recovered, the unrecoverable
amounts are written off against current earnings. Recoverability is dependent upon assumptions and judgments regarding future prices,
costs of production, sustaining capital requirements and economically recoverable ore reserves. A change in assumptions may materially
impact the potential impairment of these assets.

2012 Annual Management's Discussion and Analysis(in thousands of CDN dollars, except as otherwise noted)




Decommissioning and Reclamation



Claude’s mining, exploration and
development activities are subject to various levels of Federal and Provincial Law as well as environmental regulations, including
requirements for closure and reclamation. Management’s judgment and estimates are used when estimating reclamation and closure
costs. In some cases, these costs will be incurred many years from the date of estimate. Estimates may be revised as a result of
changes in government regulations or assumptions.



Future
Accounting Pronouncements



Certain new accounting standards and interpretations
have been published that are not mandatory for the December 31, 2012 reporting period:



| | · | IFRS 9, Financial Instruments: effective for accounting periods commencing on or after January
1, 2015. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of IFRS 9 on its financial statements.

| | · | In December 2011, the IASB published Offsetting Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities
and issued new disclosure requirements in IFRS 7, Financial Instruments: Disclosures. The amendments to IAS 32 clarify that
if an entity currently has a legally enforceable right to set-off if that right is not contingent on a future event, and enforceable
both in the normal course of business and in the event of default, insolvency or bankruptcy of the entity and all counterparties.
The amendments to IAS 32 also clarify when a settlement mechanism provides for net settlement or gross settlement that is equivalent
to net settlement. The amendments to IFRS 7 contain new disclosure requirements for financial assets and liabilities that are offset
in the statement of financial position, or subject to master netting arrangements or similar arrangements. The effective date for
the amendments to IAS 32 is annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2014. The effective date for the amendments to IFRS
7 is annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013. These amendments are to be applied retrospectively. The Company does
not expect the amendments to have a material impact on the financial statements.

2012 Annual Management's Discussion and Analysis(in thousands of CDN dollars, except as otherwise noted)






Business Risks



The profitability and operating cash flow
of the Company is dependent on several factors: the quantity of gold produced, related gold prices, foreign exchange, operating
costs, capital expenditures, exploration levels and environmental, health and safety regulations. These and other risk factors
listed below relate to the mining industry in general while others are specific to Claude. A complete list of risk factors is contained
within the Company’s Annual Information Form. Whenever possible, the Company seeks to mitigate these risk factors.



Inherent Exploration and Mining Risks



The exploration for and development of
mineral deposits involves significant risks, which even the combination of careful evaluation, experience and knowledge may not
eliminate. It is impossible to guarantee that current or future exploration programs on existing mineral properties will establish
reserves.



The level of profitability of the Company
in future years will depend mainly on gold prices, the cost of production at the Seabee Operation and whether any of the Company’s
exploration stage properties can be brought into production. Whether an ore body will continue to be commercially viable depends
on a number of factors, some of which are the particular attributes of the deposit such as: size, grade and proximity to infrastructure;
precious metal prices, which cannot be predicted and which have been highly volatile in the past; mining costs; and government
regulations, including regulations relating to prices, taxes, royalties, land tenure, land use, importing and exporting of minerals,
environmental protection and reclamation and closure obligations. The effect of these factors cannot be accurately predicted, but
the combination of these factors may cause a mineral deposit that has been mined profitably in the past, such as the Seabee Operation,
to become unprofitable. The Company is subject to the risks normally encountered in the mining industry, such as unusual or unexpected
geological formations, cave-ins or flooding. The Company may become subject to liability for pollution, cave-ins or other hazards
against which it cannot insure or against which it may elect not to insure.



The development of gold and other mineral
properties is affected by many factors, including the cost of operations, variations in the grade of ore, fluctuations in commodity
markets, costs of processing equipment and other factors such as government regulations, including regulations relating to royalties,
fluctuations in the U.S. dollar versus Canadian dollar exchange rate, allowable production, importing and exporting of minerals
and environmental protection.



Gold Price Volatility



The economics of developing gold and other
metal properties are affected by many factors, including the cost of operations, variations in the grade of ore mined and the price
of gold or other metals. Depending on the price of gold, the Company may determine that it is impractical to commence or continue
commercial production. The price of gold has fluctuated in recent years. During the year ended December 31, 2012, the market price
per ounce for gold ranged from a low of U.S. $1,540 to a high of U.S. $1,792, with an average price of U.S. $1,669.



Any significant drop in the price of gold
adversely impacts the Company’s revenues, profitability and cash flows. Also, sustained low gold prices can:



| | 1. | Reduce production revenues as a result of cutbacks caused by the cessation of mining operations
involving deposits or portions of deposits that have become uneconomic at the prevailing price of gold;
| | -- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

| | 2. | Cause the cessation or deferral of new mining projects;
| | -- | -------------------------------------------------------

| | 3. | Decrease the amount of capital available for exploration activities;
| | -- | --------------------------------------------------------------------

| | 4. | Reduce existing reserves by removing ore from reserves that cannot be economically mined at prevailing
prices; or,
| | -- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

| | 5. | Cause the write-off of an asset whose value is impaired by the low price of gold.
| | -- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------



Claude Resources Inc.Page 33


2012 Annual Management's Discussion and Analysis(in thousands of CDN dollars, except as otherwise noted)






Gold prices may fluctuate widely and are
affected by numerous industry factors, such as demand for precious metals, forward selling by producers and central bank sales
and purchases of gold. Moreover, gold prices are also affected by macro-economic factors such as expectations for inflation, interest
rates, currency exchange rates and global or regional political and economic situations. The current demand for and supply of gold
affects gold prices, but not necessarily in the same manner as current demand and supply affects the price of other commodities.
The potential supply of gold consists of new mine production plus existing stocks of bullion and fabricated gold held by governments,
financial institutions, industrial organizations and individuals. If gold prices remain at low market levels for a sustained period,
the Company could determine that it is not economically feasible to continue mining operations or exploration activities.



There can be no assurance that the price
of gold will remain stable or that such price will be at a level that will prove feasible to continue the Company’s exploration
activities, or if applicable, begin development of its properties, commence or, if commenced, continue commercial production.



Foreign Exchange Risk



The price of gold is denominated in U.S.
dollars and, accordingly, the Company’s proceeds from gold sales will be denominated and received in U.S. dollars. As a result,
fluctuations in the U.S. dollar against the Canadian dollar could result in unanticipated fluctuations in the Company’s financial
results, which are reported in Canadian dollars. During the year ended December 31, 2012, the CDN$/US$ exchange rate ranged from
a low of $0.9784 to a high of $1.0275, with an average of $0.9994.



Access to Funding



The Company’s ability to continue
its production, exploration and development activities depends in part on its ability to generate revenues from its operations
or to obtain financing through joint ventures, debt financing, equity financing and production sharing arrangements or other means.



The failure of the Company to meet its
ongoing obligations on a timely basis could result in the loss or substantial dilution of its interest (as existing or as proposed
to be acquired) in its properties. In addition, Management estimates that approximately $2.7 million is the minimum annual expenditure
required to fulfill the Company’s intended exploration and dewatering programs in 2013.





At current gold prices and forecast production,
Management believes operating cash flows will not be sufficient to fund the debenture maturing in May 2013. The Company expects
that operating cash flows combined with the closing of the debt financing announced in January 2013 will provide sufficient funding
for 2013 and the Q1 2014 winter road resupply at the Seabee Gold Operation.



Unfavourable Government Regulatory Changes



The Company’s exploration activities
and mining operations are affected to varying degrees by government regulations relating to mining operations, the acquisition
of land, pollution control and environmental protection, safety, production and expropriation of property. Changes in these regulations
or in their application are beyond the control of the Company and may adversely affect its operations, business and results of
operations. Failure to comply with the conditions set out in any permit or failure to comply with applicable statutes and regulations
may result in orders to cease or curtail operations or to install additional equipment. The Company may be required to compensate
those suffering loss or damage by reason of its operating or exploration activities.



Currently, all of the Company’s properties
are subject to the federal laws of Canada and, depending upon the location of the Company’s properties, may be subject to
the provincial laws of Saskatchewan and Ontario as well as local municipal laws. Mineral exploration and mining may be affected
in varying degrees by government regulations relating to the mining industry. Any changes in regulations or shifts in political
conditions are beyond the control of the Company and may adversely affect its business.



Operations may be affected in varying degrees
by government regulations with respect to price controls, export controls, foreign exchange controls, income taxes, expropriation
of property, environmental and mine safety legislation.



Claude Resources Inc.Page 34


2012 Annual Management's Discussion and Analysis(in thousands of CDN dollars, except as otherwise noted)






Aboriginal rights, Title Claims and the Duty to Consult
May Delay Projects



Exploration, development and mining activities
at the Company’s Saskatchewan and Ontario properties may affect established or potential treaty or Aboriginal rights, title
or other claims held by Aboriginal groups, in these circumstances, First Nation and Métis, with related duty to consult
issues. The Company is committed to effectively managing any impacts to such rights, title and claims and any resulting consultation
requirements that may arise. However, there is no assurance that the Company will not face material adverse consequences because
of the legal and factual uncertainties associated with these issues.



Failure to Effectively Manage the Company’s Tailings
Facilities could Negatively Impact Gold Production



The Company’s Seabee Mill produces
tailings. Managing these tailings is integral to gold production. The Seabee Operation’s East Lake and Triangle Lake tailings
management facilities have the capacity to store tailings from milling ore from the Seabee Mill until approximately 2016. The Company
is currently in the process of planning tailings capacity expansion beyond 2016. This will support the extension of Seabee’s
mine life and provide additional tailings capacity to process ore from the Santoy 8 deposit and other potential sources such as
Santoy Gap deposit within the Santoy Mine Complex. If the Company does not receive regulatory approval for new or expanded tailings
facilities, gold production could be constrained.



Changes to Safety, Health and Environmental Regulations
Could Have a Material Adverse Effect on Future Operations



Safety, health and environmental legislation
affects nearly all aspects of the Company’s operations including exploration, mine development, working conditions, waste
disposal, emission controls and protection of endangered and protected species. Compliance with safety, health and environmental
legislation can require significant expenditures and failure to comply with such safety, health and environmental legislation may
result in the imposition of fines and penalties, the temporary or permanent suspension of operations, clean-up costs resulting
from contaminated properties, damages and the loss of important permits. Exposure to these liabilities arises not only from the
Company’s existing operations, but from operations that have been closed or sold to third parties. Generally, the Company
is required to reclaim properties after mining is completed and specific requirements vary among jurisdictions. The Company is
required to provide financial assurances as security for reclamation costs, which may exceed the Company’s estimates for
such costs. The Company could also be held liable for worker exposure to hazardous substances and for accidents causing injury
or death. There can be no assurances that the Company will at all times be in compliance with all safety, health and environmental
regulations or that steps to achieve compliance would not materially adversely affect the Company’s business.



Safety, health and environmental laws and
regulations are evolving in all jurisdictions where the Company has activities. The Company is not able to determine the specific
impact that future changes in safety, health and environmental laws and regulations may have on its operations and activities,
and its resulting financial position; however, the Company anticipates that capital expenditures and operating expenses will increase
in the future as a result of the implementation of new and increasingly stringent safety, health and environmental regulation.
For example, emissions standards are poised to become increasingly stringent. Further changes in safety, health and environmental
laws, new information on existing safety, health and environmental conditions or other events, including legal proceedings based
upon such conditions or an inability to obtain necessary permits, may require increased financial reserves or compliance expenditures
or otherwise have a material adverse effect on the Company.



Environmental and regulatory review is
a long and complex process that can delay the opening, modification or expansion of a mine, extend decommissioning at a closed
mine, or restrict areas where exploration activities may take place.



Claude Resources Inc.Page 35


2012 Annual Management's Discussion and Analysis(in thousands of CDN dollars, except as otherwise noted)




Decommissioning and Reclamation Obligations May
Constrain Production



Environmental regulators are demanding
more and more financial assurances so that the parties involved, and not the government, bear the costs of decommissioning and
reclaiming sites. Decommissioning plans have been filed for the Seabee and Madsen properties. These plans are reviewed, as necessary,
or at the time of an amendment or renewal of an operating license. Regulators may conduct a further review of the detailed decommissioning
plans, and this can lead to additional requirements, costs and financial assurances. It is not possible to predict what level of
decommissioning and reclamation and financial assurances regulators may require in the future.



Imprecise Ore Reserves and Ore Grade Estimates may Negatively
Impact Gold Production and Operating Profitability





Although the Company has assessed the Mineral
Reserve and Mineral Resource estimates contained in this document and believes that the methods used to estimate such Mineral Reserves
and Mineral Resources are appropriate, such figures are estimates. Estimates of Mineral Reserves and Mineral Resources are inherently
imprecise and depend to some extent on statistical inferences drawn from limited drilling, which may prove unreliable. Furthermore,
the indicated level of recovery of gold may not be realized. Market price fluctuations of gold may render reserves and deposits
containing relatively lower grades of mineralization uneconomic. Moreover, short-term operating factors relating to Mineral Reserves,
such as the need for orderly development of the deposits or the processing of new or different grades, may cause mining operations
to be unprofitable in any particular period.



Potential Shareholder Dilution Could Impact Share Price
and New Equity Issues



As of December 31, 2012, there were stock
options outstanding to purchase 6,948,527 common shares and share purchase warrants outstanding to purchase 1,693,200 common shares.
Subsequent to December 31, 2012, and subject to due diligence, the Company may issue an additional 5,750,000 common share purchase
warrants pursuant to a debt financing. These options and warrants, if fully exercised, would constitute approximately 7.6 percent
of the Company’s resulting share capital. The exercise of such options or warrants and the subsequent resale of such shares
in the public market could adversely affect the prevailing share market price and the Company’s ability to raise equity capital
in the future at a time and price which it deems appropriate. The Company may also enter into commitments in the future which would
require the issuance of additional common shares and the Company may grant additional share purchase warrants and stock options.
Any share issuances from the Company’s treasury could result in immediate dilution to existing shareholders.



Industry Competition may Hinder Corporate Growth



The Company’s business is intensely
competitive and the Company competes with other mining companies, some of which have greater resources and experience. Competition
in the precious metals mining industry is primarily for mineral rich properties which can be developed and produced economically,
the technical expertise to find, develop and produce such properties, the labour to operate the properties and the capital for
the purpose of financing development of such properties. Many competitors not only explore for and mine precious metals, but also
conduct refining and marketing operations on a worldwide basis and some of these companies have much greater financial and technical
resources than the Company. Such competition may result in the Company being unable to acquire desired properties, to recruit or
retain qualified employees or to acquire the capital necessary to fund its operations and develop its properties. The Company’s
inability to compete with other mining companies could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations
and its business.



Claude Resources Inc.Page 36


2012 Annual Management's Discussion and Analysis(in thousands of CDN dollars, except as otherwise noted)






Extreme and Persistent Weather Conditions could Cause
Operating and Exploration Difficulties



The Company’s mining and exploration
properties are all located in the northern portions of Saskatchewan and Ontario. Access to these properties and the ability to
conduct work on them can be affected by adverse weather conditions. Adverse weather conditions can also increase the costs of both
access and work on the Company’s properties.





Title to Company Properties Could be Challenged with
Potential Loss of Ownership







Acquisition of title to mineral properties
is a very detailed and time-consuming process. The Company believes it has investigated title to all of its mineral properties
and has obtained title opinions with respect to its most significant properties. To the best of the Company’s knowledge,
titles to all such properties are in good standing. For the Madsen property, Claude has searched title records for any and all
encumbrances. For the Seabee and Amisk properties, the Company has examined property search abstracts from the Saskatchewan Ministry
of the Economy as well as made inquiries and reviewed lease files from the Ministry. It has also received confirmation of title
from Saskatchewan Environment.



The title to the Company’s properties
could be challenged or impugned. The properties may have been acquired in error from parties who did not possess transferable title,
may be subject to prior unregistered agreements or transfers and title may be affected by undetected defects.



We May Not be Able to Hire Enough Skilled Employees
to Support Operations



Many of the projects undertaken by the
Company rely on the availability of skilled labour and the capital outlays required to employ such labour. The Company employs
full and part time employees, contractors and consultants to assist in executing operations and providing technical guidance. In
the event of a skilled labour shortage, various projects of the Company may not become operational due to increased capital outlays
associated with labour. Further, a skilled labour shortage could result in operational issues such as production shortfalls and
higher mining costs.



Uninsured Risks could Negatively Impact Profitability



In the course of exploration, development
and production of mineral properties, certain risks and in particular, unexpected or unusual geological operating conditions including
rock bursts, cave-ins, fire and flooding and earthquakes may occur. It is not always possible to fully insure against such risks
and the Company may decide not to take out insurance against such risks as a result of high premiums or other reasons. Should such
liabilities arise, they could reduce or eliminate any future profitability and result in increased costs and a decline in the value
of the securities of the Company.



The Company is Subject to Evolving Corporate Governance
and Public Disclosure Regulations that have Increased the Cost of Compliance and the Risk of Non-compliance



The Company is subject to changing rules
and regulations promulgated by a number of Canadian and United States governmental and self-regulating organizations, including
the Canadian Securities Administrators, the Toronto Stock Exchange, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, the NYSE MKT and
the International Accounting Standards Board. These rules and regulations continue to evolve in scope and complexity making compliance
more difficult and uncertain. Efforts to comply with new regulations have resulted, and are likely to continue to result in, increased
general and administrative expenses and a diversion of Management time and attention from revenue-generating activities to compliance
activities.



Claude Resources Inc.Page 37


2012 Annual Management's Discussion and Analysis(in thousands of CDN dollars, except as otherwise noted)






Due to the Company’s Canadian
Jurisdiction, Investors may be Deterred from Trading Company Stock as it may be Difficult for United States (“U.S.”)
Investors to Effect Service of Process Against the Company





The Company is incorporated under the laws
of Canada. All of the Company’s directors and officers are residents of Canada and all of the Company’s assets and
its subsidiaries are located in Canada. Consequently, it may be difficult for U.S. investors to affect service of process in the
U.S. upon the Company’s directors or officers or to realize in the U.S. upon judgments of U.S. courts predicated upon civil
liabilities under the United States Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. A judgment of a U.S. court predicated solely upon
such civil liabilities may be enforceable in Canada by a Canadian court if the U.S. court in which the judgment was obtained had
jurisdiction, as determined by the Canadian court, in the matter. There is substantial doubt whether an original action could be
brought successfully in Canada against any of such persons or the Company predicated solely upon such civil liabilities.



Internal Controls Provide No Absolute Assurances as
to Reliability of Financial Reporting



The Company has invested resources to document
and assess its system of internal controls over financial reporting and it is continuing its evaluation of such internal controls.
Internal controls over financial reporting are procedures designed to provide reasonable assurance that transactions are properly
authorized, assets are safeguarded against unauthorized or improper use, and transactions are properly recorded and reported. A
control system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance with respect to
the reliability of financial reporting and financial statement preparation.



The Company is required to satisfy the
requirement of Section 404 of the U.S. Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (the “Sarbanes-Oxley Act”), which requires an annual
assessment by management of the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.



If the Company fails to maintain the adequacy
of its internal control over financial reporting, as such standards are modified, supplemented, or amended from time to time, the
Company may not be able to ensure that it can conclude on an ongoing basis that it has effective internal controls over financial
reporting in accordance with Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. The Company’s failure to satisfy the requirement of Section
404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act on an ongoing, timely basis could result in the loss of investor confidence in the reality of its
financial statements, which in turn could harm the Company’s business and negatively impact the trading price of its common
shares. In addition, any failure to implement required new or improved controls, or difficulties encountered in their implementation,
could harm the Company’s operating results or cause it to fail to meet its reporting obligations.



Although the Company intends to devote
substantial time and incur substantial costs, as necessary, to ensure ongoing compliance, the Company cannot be certain that it
will be successful in complying with Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act.



The Company is Subject to Certain Legal Proceedings
and May Be Subject to Additional Litigation in the Future



All industries, including the mining industry,
are subject to legal claims, with and without merit. The Company is currently involved in litigation of a non-material nature and
may become involved in legal disputes in the future. Defence and settlement costs can be substantial, even with respect to claims
that have no merit. Due to the inherent uncertainty of the litigation process, there can be no assurance that the resolution of
any particular legal proceedings will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position or results of
operations.



Conflicts of Interest



Certain of the directors of the Company
are also directors and officers of other companies engaged in mineral exploration and development and mineral property acquisitions.
As such, situations may arise where such directors are in a conflict of interest with the Company. The Company will resolve any
actual conflicts of interest if and when the same arise in accordance with the Company’s Code of Ethics Policy.

Outstanding Share Data



The authorized share capital of the Company

Non-IFRS Performance Measures
and Reconciliations



The Company utilizes non-IFRS financial
measures as supplemental indicators of operating performance and financial position. These non-IFRS financial measures are used
internally by the Company for comparing actual results from one period to another. The Company believes that, in addition to conventional
measures prepared in accordance with IFRS, certain investors use this information to evaluate the Company’s performance and
ability to generate cash flow. Accordingly, such information is intended to provide additional information and should not be considered
in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with IFRS.



Claude Resources Inc.Page 40


2012 Annual Management's Discussion and Analysis(in thousands of CDN dollars, except as otherwise noted)






Cash Cost Per Ounce



The Company reports its cash costs on a
per-ounce basis, based on uniform standards developed by the Gold Institute, an independent researcher and evaluator of the gold
market and gold industry. Management uses this measure to analyze the profitability, compared to average realized gold prices,
of the Seabee Gold Operation. Investors are cautioned that the above measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures
of other companies, should these companies not follow Gold Institute standards.



|Table 23: Total Cash Cost per Gold Ounce Sold

|CDN$ Exchange Rate                           
|Total cash cost per ounce (US$)              



Net Cash Margin



The Company uses net cash margin, which
represents realized price per ounce less net cash costs per ounce. This measure is used by Management to analyze profitability
trends and to assess the cash-generating capability from the sale of gold on a consolidated basis in each reporting period, expressed
on a unit basis. Management believes that this measurement illustrates the performance of the Company’s business on a consolidated
basis and enables investors to better understand Claude’s performance in comparison to other gold producers who present results
on a similar basis and is an important indicator of expected performance in future periods.



The Company’s net cash margin is
intended to provide additional information, does not have any standardized meaning prescribed by IFRS and should not be considered
in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with IFRS. This measure is not necessarily indicative
of operating profit or cash flow from operations as determined under IFRS. Other companies may calculate net cash margin differently.
This non-IFRS measure is calculated from realized gold price per ounce and total cash costs per ounce, as determined in the net
cash cost reconciliation. Net cash margin could also be derived from realized price per ounce and net cash costs per ounce.

Other Performance Measures

Cash Flow from Operations before Net Changes in Non-Cash
Operating Working Capital



The Company uses Cash Flow from Operations
before Net Changes in Non-Cash Operating Working Capital as a supplemental measure of its financial performance. The Company uses
this measure to analyze the cash generated by its operations. These measures are not necessarily indicative of operating profit
or cash flow from operations as determined under IFRS. Investors are cautioned that the above measures may not be comparable to
similarly titled measures of other companies.

Disclosure Controls and
Internal Controls over Financial Reporting



Disclosure Controls and Procedures



As at December 31, 2012, we evaluated our
disclosure controls and procedures as defined in the rules of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and
the Canadian Securities Administrators. This evaluation was carried out under the supervision and participation of Management,
including the President and Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer. Based on that evaluation, the President and
Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the design and operation of these disclosure controls and procedures
were effective.



Internal Control Over Financial Reporting



Management is responsible for establishing
and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. Internal control over financial reporting, no matter how well
designed, has inherent limitations and can only provide reasonable assurance with respect to the preparation and fair presentation
of published financial statements. Under the supervision and with the participation of the President and Chief Executive Officer
and the Chief Financial Officer, management conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of its internal control over financial
reporting based on the framework in Internal Control – Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations
of the Treadway Commission. Based on this evaluation, the President and Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer
concluded that internal control over financial reporting is effective as at December 31, 2012.



No significant changes were made in our
internal controls over financial reporting during the period ended December 31, 2012 that have materially affected, or are reasonably
likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.



Limitations of Controls and Procedures



The Company’s management, including
the President and Chief Executive Officer and Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, believes that any disclosure controls
and procedures or internal control over financial reporting, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable,
not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect
the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because
of the inherent limitations in all control systems, they cannot provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances
of fraud, if any, within the Company have been prevented or detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments
in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can
be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by unauthorized override of the
control. The design of any control system also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events,
and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions.
Accordingly, because of the inherent limitations in a cost effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur
and not be detected.

Cautionary Note to U.S.
Investors Concerning Resource Estimates



Resource Estimates



The resource estimates in this Management’s
Discussion and Analysis were prepared in accordance with National Instrument 43-101, adopted by the Canadian Securities Administrators.
The requirements of National Instrument 43-101 differ significantly from the requirements of the SEC. In this Management’s
Discussion and Analysis, the Company uses certain terms such as “measured”, “indicated” and “inferred”
resources. Although these terms are recognized and required in Canada, the SEC does not recognize them. The SEC permits U.S. mining
companies, in their filings with the SEC, to disclose only those mineral deposits that constitute “reserves”. Under
U.S. standards, mineralization may not be classified as a reserve unless the determination has been made that the mineralization
could be economically and legally extracted at the time the determination is made. U.S. investors should not assume that all or
any portion of a measured or indicated resource will ever be converted into “reserves”. Further, “inferred resources”
have a great amount of uncertainty as to their existence and whether they can be mined economically or legally, and U.S. investors
should not assume that “inferred resources” exist or can be legally or economically mined, or that they will ever be
upgraded to a more certain category.



Compliance with Canadian Securities Regulations



This annual report is intended to comply
with the requirements of the Toronto Stock Exchange and applicable Canadian securities legislation, which differ in certain respects
from the rules and regulations promulgated under the United States Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (“Exchange
Act”), as promulgated by the SEC.



U.S. investors are urged to consider the
disclosure in our Annual Report on Form 40-F, File No. 001-31956, as filed with the SEC under the Exchange Act, which may be obtained
from the Company (without cost) or from the SEC’s Web site: http://sec.gov/edgar.shtml.



Caution Regarding Forward-Looking
Information



All statements, other than statements of
historical fact, contained or incorporated by reference in this MD&A constitute “forward-looking information”
within the meaning of applicable Canadian securities laws and “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the
United States Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 (referred to herein as “forward-looking statements”).
Forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements with respect to the future price of gold, the estimation
of mineral reserves and resources, the realization of mineral reserve estimates, the timing and amount of estimated future production,
costs of production, capital expenditures, costs and timing of the development of new deposits, success of exploration activities,
permitting time lines, currency exchange rate fluctuations, requirements for additional capital, government regulation of mining
operations, environmental risks, unanticipated reclamation expenses, title disputes or claims and limitations on insurance coverage.
Generally, these forward-looking statements can be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology such as “plans”,
“expects” or “does not expect”, “is expected”, “budget”, “scheduled”,
“estimates”, “forecasts”, “intends”, “anticipates” or “does not anticipate”
or “believes”, or the negative connotation thereof or variations of such words and phrases or state that certain actions,
events or results, “may”, “could”, “would”, “might” or “will be taken”,
“occur” or “be achieved” or the negative connotation thereof.



All forward-looking statements are based
on various assumptions, including, without limitation, the expectations and beliefs of management, the assumed long-term price
of gold, that the Company will receive required permits and access to surface rights, that the Company can access financing, appropriate
equipment and sufficient labour, and that the political environment within Canada will continue to support the development of mining
projects in Canada.

2012 Annual Management's Discussion and Analysis(in thousands of CDN dollars, except as otherwise noted)






Forward-looking statements are subject
to known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause the actual results, level of activity, performance or
achievements of Claude to be materially different from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements, including
but not limited to: actual results of current exploration activities; environmental risks; future prices of gold; possible variations
in ore reserves, grade or recovery rates; mine development and operating risks; accidents, labour issues and other risks of the
mining industry; delays in obtaining government approvals or financing or in the completion of development or construction activities;
and other risks and uncertainties, including but not limited to those discussed in the section entitled “Business Risk”
in this MD&A. These risks and uncertainties are not, and should not be construed as being, exhaustive.



Although Claude has attempted to identify
important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in forward-looking statements, there
may be other factors that cause results not to be as anticipated, estimated or intended. There can be no assurance that such statements
will prove to be accurate, as actual results and future events could differ materially from those anticipated in such statements.
Accordingly, readers should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements.



Forward-looking statements in this MD&A
are made as of the date of this MD&A, being March 27, 2012 and, accordingly, are subject to change after such date. Except
as otherwise indicated by Claude, these statements do not reflect the potential impact of any non-recurring or other special items
that may occur after the date hereof. Forward-looking statements are provided for the purpose of providing information about management’s
current expectations and plans and allowing investors and others to get a better understanding of our operating environment.



Claude does not undertake to update any
forward-looking statements that are incorporated by reference herein, except in accordance with applicable securities laws.



The forward-looking statements contained
in this Management’s Discussion and Analysis are expressly qualified by these cautionary statements.

Alteration –any change in
the mineral composition of a rock brought about by physical or chemical means.



Assaying- laboratory examination
that determines the content or proportion of a specific metal (i.e.: silver) contained within a sample. Technique usually involves
firing/smelting.

–a measure of contained metal expressed in equivalent gold grade.



Biotite – a widely distributed
and important rock-forming mineral of the mica group.



Brecciated – broken into sharp-angled
fragments surrounded by finer-grained material.



Bulk Sample – a collection
of representative mineralized material whose location, geologic character and metal assay content can be determined and then used
for metallurgical or geotechnical testing purposes.



Chalcopyrite - a sulphide mineral
of copper and iron.



Chlorite – a group of platy,
monoclinic, usually greenish minerals.



Chloritic alteration – the
replacement by, conversion into, or introduction of chlorite into a rock.



Core Samples- the cylindrical form
of rock called “core” that is extracted from a diamond drill hole. Mineralized sections are separated and these samples
are sent to a laboratory for analysis.



Cross-cut- a horizontal opening
driven from a shaft or haulage drift at an oblique or right angle to the strike of a vein or other orebody.



Cut-off Grade - the lowest grade
of mineralized material that qualifies as a reserve in a deposit (i.e.: contributing material of the lowest assay that is included
in a reserve estimate).

opening that follows along the length of a vein or rock formation.



Duty to Consult - governments in
Canada may have a duty to consult with and potentially accommodate Aboriginal groups prior to making decisions which may impact
lands and resources subject to established or potential treaty or Aboriginal rights, title or other claims. These governments,
in turn, may delegate procedural aspects of this duty to industry.



Exploration– work involved
in searching for ore, from prospecting to diamond drilling or driving a drift.



Fault – a fracture or break
in rock along which there has been movement.



Feasibility Study – a comprehensive
technical and economic study of the selected development option for a mineral project that includes appropriately detailed assessments
of realistically assumed mining, processing, metallurgical, economic, marketing, legal, environmental, social and governmental
considerations together with any other relevant operational factors and detailed financial analysis, that are necessary to demonstrate
at the time of reporting that extraction is reasonably justified (economically mineable). The results of the study may reasonably
serve as the basis for a final decision by a proponent or financial institution to proceed with, or finance, the development of
the project. The confidence level of the study will be higher than that of a Prefeasibility Study.

is that part of a Mineral Resource for which quantity, grade or quality, densities, shape and physical characteristics, can be
estimated with a level of confidence sufficient to allow the appropriate application of technical and economic parameters, to support
mine planning and evaluation of the economic viability of the deposit. The estimate is based on detailed and reliable exploration
and testing information gathered through appropriate techniques from locations such as outcrops, trenches, pits, workings and drill
holes that are spaced closely enough for geological and grade continuity to be reasonably assumed.

of dark, iron and magnesium-rich minerals.



Measured
Mineral Resource -is that part of a Mineral Resource for which quantity, grade or quality, densities, shape, and physical
characteristics are so well established that they can be estimated with confidence sufficient to allow the appropriate application
of technical and economic parameters, to support production planning and evaluation of the economic viability of the deposit. The
estimate is based on detailed and reliable exploration, sampling and testing information gathered through appropriate techniques
from locations such as outcrops, trenches, pits, workings and drill holes that are spaced closely enough to confirm both geological
and grade continuity.

Mineral Reserve – the economically
mineable part of a Measured or Indicated Mineral Resource demonstrated by at least a Prefeasibility Study. This study must include
adequate information on mining, processing, metallurgical, economic and other relevant factors that demonstrate, at the time of
reporting, that economic extraction can be justified. A Mineral Reserve includes diluting materials and allowances for losses that
may occur when material is mined.



Mineral Resource – a concentration
or occurrence of natural, solid, inorganic, or fossilized organic material in or on the Earth’s crust in such form and quantity
and of such a grade or quality that it has reasonable prospects for economic extraction. The location, quantity, grade, geological
characteristics, and continuity of a Mineral Resource are known, estimated or interpreted from specific geological evidence and
knowledge.

Tailings - Tailings consist of ground
rock and process effluents that are generated in a mine processing plant or mill. Mechanical and chemical processes are used to
extract gold from mine ore and produce a waste stream known as tailings. This process of product extraction is never 100 percent
efficient, nor is it possible to reclaim all reusable and expended processing reagents and chemicals. The unrecoverable and uneconomic
metals, minerals, chemicals, organics and process water are discharged, normally as slurry, to a final storage area commonly known
as a Tailings Management Facility (TMF) or Tailings Storage Facility (TSF).
