(1)

Pursuant to Rule 416(a) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), this Registration Statement also covers any additional securities that may be offered or issued to prevent dilution resulting from stock splits, stock dividends or similar transactions in accordance with the provisions of the Klondex Mines Ltd. Share Incentive Plan (the “Old Plan”), and the Klondex Mines Ltd. Share Option and Restricted Share Unit Plan (the “Current Plan,” and together with the Old Plan, the “Plans”).

(2)

Represents common shares of the Registrant, no par value (the “Common Shares”) issuable upon, (i) the exercise of currently outstanding options previously granted under the Old Plan, and (ii) the exercise of currently outstanding options previously granted under the Current Plan.

(3)

Estimated in accordance with Rule 457(h) under the Securities Act solely for the purpose of calculating the registration fee. Pursuant to Rule 457(h), the proposed maximum offering price, per share and in the aggregate, is calculated on the basis of C$2.67, the weighted average exercise price of the outstanding options described in note (2), converted into U.S. dollars using an exchange rate of C$1.00 = US$0.7464, which exchange rate was the Bank of Canada daily noon exchange rate on December 15, 2016.

(4)

Represents Common Shares issuable upon, (i) the exercise of options and vesting of awards available for grant under the Current Plan, and (ii) the vesting of restricted share units (“RSUs”) previously granted under the Current Plan.

(5)

Estimated in accordance with Rule 457(h)(1) and Rule 457(c) under the Securities Act solely for the purpose of calculating the registration fee, based on the average of the high and low sales prices of the Registrant’s Common Shares reported on the NYSE MKT LLC on December 15, 2016.



EXPLANATORY NOTE

The Registrant’s Current Plan consists of a share option component and a restricted share unit component. Effective May 13, 2016, the Current Plan replaced the registrant’s Old Plan. No additional options, Common Shares or other equity awards will be granted under the Old Plan.

This Registration Statement on Form S-8 (this “Registration Statement”) registers the Common Shares to be issued pursuant to (i) the exercise of options previously granted and currently outstanding under the Registrant’s Old Plan, (ii) the exercise of options and vesting of RSUs previously granted and currently outstanding under the Registrant’s Current Plan, and (iii) the exercise of options and vesting of awards available for grant under the Current Plan.

Pursuant to the terms of the Current Plan, the aggregate number of Common Shares issuable under the Current Plan, cannot exceed 8.9% of the aggregate number of Common Shares outstanding on a non-diluted basis at the time of the applicable grant less the aggregate number of Common Shares reserved for issuance under all of the Registrant’s other security-based compensation arrangements. In addition, the maximum number of Common Shares available for issuance pursuant to grants of RSUs under the Current Plan cannot exceed 4.0% of the total number of Common Shares outstanding at the time of grant of the applicable RSU.

As of November 30, 2016, the Registrant had a total of 149,325,538 Common Shares issued and outstanding; 429,255 outstanding and unvested share awards previously granted under the Old Plan; 4,958,105 outstanding options granted under the Old Plan; 300,000 outstanding options granted under the Current Plan; and 790,753 outstanding RSUs granted under the Current Plan. Based on the total number of outstanding Common Shares, as of November 30, 2016, a maximum of 13,289,972 Common Shares could be issued under the Current Plan, less any previously established or proposed compensation arrangement (such as, without limitation, outstanding and unvested share awards granted under the Old Plan). The maximum of 12,860,717 Common Shares being registered on this Registration Statement is the maximum of 13,289,972 Common Shares that may be issued under the Current Plan, less the 429,255 outstanding and unvested share awards previously granted under the Old Plan.

Any exercise or termination of an option or vesting of a share award previously granted under the Plans and any redemption or termination of an RSU previously issued under the Current Plan, will result in additional grant capacity becoming available under the Current Plan. Any redemption or termination of an RSU will also result in an additional RSU being available for grant under the Current Plan. Further, in the event the Registrant elects to satisfy its payment obligation with respect to RSUs in cash rather than delivering Common Shares, any Common Shares that otherwise would have been subject to such RSUs will again be available for grant under the Current Plan.

For the avoidance of doubt, this Registration Statement covers the Common Shares underlying outstanding awards granted under the Old Plan that become available for issuance under the Current Plan when such Common Shares are no longer issuable under the Old Plan due to the expiration, forfeiture or cancellation of such outstanding awards.

All references in this Registration Statement to “dollars” or “$” are to United States dollars, and all references to “C$” are to Canadian dollars.

Item 6. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.

Business Corporations Act

The Registrant is subject to the provisions of the Bu s iness Corpor a tions Act (British Columbia) (the “Act”). Under Section 160 of the Act, a company may, subject to Section 163 of the Act, indemnify an individual who:

  is or was a director or officer of the company;
     
is or was a director or officer of another corporation (i) at a time when such corporation is or was an affiliate of the company; or (ii) at the request of the company; or
     
at the request of the company, is or was, or holds or held a position equivalent to that of, a director or officer of a partnership, trust, joint venture or other unincorporated entity.

and includes the heirs and personal or other legal representatives of that individual (collectively,, an “eligible party”), against a judgment, penalty or fine awarded or imposed in, or an amount paid in settlement of, a proceeding (an “eligible penalty”) in which an eligible party or any of the heirs and personal or other legal representatives of the eligible party, by reason of the eligible party being or having been a director or officer of, or holding or having held a position equivalent to that of a director or officer of, the company or an associated corporation (a) is or may be  joined as a party, or (b) is or may be liable for or in respect of a judgment, penalty or fine in, or expenses related to, the proceeding (an “eligible proceeding”) to which the eligible party is or may be liable and the company may, subject to Section 163 of the Act, after the final disposition of an eligible proceeding, pay the expenses actually and reasonably incurred by an eligible party in respect of that proceeding.

4


Under Section 161 of the Act, and subject to Section 163 of the Act, a company must, after the final disposition of an eligible proceeding, pay the expenses actually and reasonably incurred by an eligible party in respect of that proceeding if the eligible party (a) has not been reimbursed for those expenses, and (b) is wholly successful, on the merits or otherwise, in the outcome of the proceeding or is substantially successful on the merits in the outcome of the proceeding.

Under Section 162 of the Act, and subject to Section 163 of the Act, a company may pay, as they are incurred in advance of the final disposition of an eligible proceeding, the expenses actually and reasonably incurred by an eligible party in respect of the proceeding, provided that the company must not make such payments unless the company first receives from the eligible party a written undertaking that, if it is ultimately determined that the payment of expenses is prohibited under Section 163 of the Act, the eligible party will repay the amounts advanced.

Under Section 163 of the Act, a company must not indemnify an eligible party against eligible penalties to which the eligible party is or may be liable or pay the expenses of an eligible party in respect of that proceeding under Sections 160, 161 or 162 of the Act, as the case may be, if any of the following circumstances apply:

if the indemnity or payment is made under an earlier agreement to indemnify or pay expenses and, at the time that the agreement to indemnify or pay expenses was made, the company was prohibited from giving the indemnity or paying the expenses by the company’s memorandum or articles;

   

if the indemnity or payment is made otherwise than under an earlier agreement to indemnify or pay expenses and, at the time that the indemnity or payment is made, the company is prohibited from giving the indemnity or paying the expenses by the company’s memorandum or articles;

   

if, in relation to the subject matter of the eligible proceeding, the eligible party did not act honestly and in good faith with a view to the best interests of the company or the associated corporation, as the case may be; or

   

in the case of an eligible proceeding other than a civil proceeding, if the eligible party did not have reasonable grounds for believing that the eligible party’s conduct in respect of which the proceeding was brought was lawful.

If an eligible proceeding is brought against an eligible party by or on behalf of the company or by or on behalf of an associated corporation, the company must neither indemnify the eligible party against eligible penalties to which the eligible party is or may be liable, nor pay the expenses of the eligible party under Sections 160, 161 or 162 of the Act, as the case may be, in respect of the proceeding.

Under Section 164 of the Act, the Supreme Court of British Columbia may, on application of a company or an eligible party:

order a company to indemnify an eligible party against any liability incurred by the eligible party in respect of an eligible proceeding;

   

order a company to pay some or all of the expenses incurred by an eligible party in respect of an eligible proceeding;

   

order the enforcement of, or payment under, an agreement of indemnification entered into by a company;

5



order a company to pay some or all of the expenses actually and reasonably incurred by any person in obtaining an order under Section 164 of the Act; or
     
  make any other order the court considers appropriate.

Section 165 of the Act provides that a company may purchase and maintain insurance for the benefit of an eligible party or the heirs and personal or other legal representatives of the eligible party against any liability that may be incurred by reason of the eligible party being or having been a director or officer of, or holding or having held a position equivalent to that of a director or officer of, the company or an associated corporation.

Under the Act, the articles of a company may affect the company’s power or obligation to give an indemnity or pay expenses to the extent that the articles prohibit giving the indemnity or paying the expenses. As indicated above, this is subject to the overriding power of the Supreme Court of British Columbia under Section 164 of the Act.

Articles of the Registrant

The Registrant’s articles provide that, subject to the Act, the Registrant must indemnify a director, former director or alternate director and his or her heirs and legal personal representatives against all eligible penalties to which such person is or may be liable. Pursuant to the Registrant’s articles, each director is deemed to have contracted with the Registrant on the aforementioned terms.

The Registrant’s articles further provide that the Registrant may indemnify any person, subject to any restrictions in the Act, and that the failure of a director, alternate director or officer of the Registrant to comply with the Act or the Registrant’s articles does not invalidate any indemnity to which he or she is entitled under the Registrant’s articles.

The Registrant is authorized by its articles to purchase and maintain insurance for the benefit of any eligible person.

The Registrant maintains directors’ and officers’ liability insurance coverage through a policy covering the Registrant and its subsidiaries, which has an annual aggregate policy limit of C$40 million, subject to a corporate deductible of C$250,000 per loss for all claims except employment claims, which are subject to a deductible of C$150,000 per loss. This insurance provides coverage for indemnity payments made by the Registrant to its directors, alternate directors and officers as required or permitted by law for losses, including legal costs, incurred by officers, directors and alternate directors in their capacity as such. This policy also provides coverage directly to individual directors, alternate directors and officers if they are not indemnified by the Registrant. The company also maintains a separate dedicated limit of insurance for these non-indemnifiable claims in the amount of C$15 million, subject to a deductible of $nil. The insurance coverage for directors, alternate directors and officers has customary exclusions, including libel and slander, and those acts determined to be uninsurable under law, or deliberately fraudulent or dishonest or to have resulted in personal profit or advantage.

Item 9. Undertakings.

  (a)

The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes:


  (1)

to file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this Registration Statement:


  (i)

to include any prospectus required by section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act;

     
  (ii)

to reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the Registration Statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the Registration Statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than a 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “ Calcul a tion of Regi s tration Fee ” table in the effective registration statement;

7



  (iii)

to include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such information in the registration statement;

provided, however, that paragraphs (a)(1)(i) and (a)(1)(ii) do not apply if the Registration Statement is on Form S-8 and the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in reports filed with or furnished to the Commission by the registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act that are incorporated by reference in this registration statement;

(2)

that, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof; and

   

(3)

to remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.


  (b)

The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each filing of the Registrant’s annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan’s annual report pursuant to section 15(d) of the Exchange Act) that is incorporated by reference in the registration statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

     
  (h)

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the Registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

2.11                       The Board may amend or discontinue this Option Plan at any time, provided, however, that no such amendment may materially and adversely affect any Option rights previously granted to an Optionee under this Option Plan without the consent of the Optionee, except to the extent required by law.

2.12                       Notwithstanding anything contained to the contrary in this Option Plan or in any resolution of the Board in implementation thereof, in the event the Corporation proposes to amalgamate, merge or consolidate with any other corporation (other than with a wholly-owned Subsidiary of the Corporation) or to liquidate, dissolve or wind-up, the Corporation shall have the right, upon written notice thereof to each Optionee holding Options under this Plan, to permit the exercise of all such Options within the thirty (30) day period next following the date of such notice and to determine that upon the expiration of such thirty (30) day period, all rights of Optionees to such Options or to exercise same (to the extent not theretofore exercised) shall ipso facto terminate and cease to have any further force or effect whatsoever; and the Board may, by resolution, advance the date by which any Option may be exercised or, subject to applicable regulatory provisions, extend the Expiry Date or advance the vesting of any Option, in the manner to be set forth in such resolution. The Board shall not, however, be under any obligation to advance or extend the Expiry Date of any Option or advance the vesting of any Option.

Nature of Payments

2.13                       All Options granted pursuant to the Option Plan are in consideration of services performed or to be performed for the Corporation. Except to the extent required under applicable law, any income or gain realized pursuant to Options under the Plan shall not constitute compensation for purposes of any employee benefit plans of the Corporation except as may be determined by the Board.

TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF OPTIONS

Exercise Price

2.14                       The Option Exercise Price per share for Common Shares which are the subject of any Options shall be fixed by the Option Plan Administrator at the time such Option is granted, but in any case will be no less than the Market Price.

Term of Option

2.15                       Options can be exercisable for a term of up to a maximum of ten (10) years from the date the Option is granted, subject to Section 2.28.


- 7 -

Option Amendment

2.16                       An Option must be outstanding for at least one year before the Corporation may extend its Expiry Date, subject to the limits contained in Section 2.15.

Vesting of Options

2.17                       The vesting of Options is at the discretion of the Option Plan Administrator, and will generally be subject to:

  (a)

the Participant remaining employed by or continuing to provide services to the Corporation as well as, at the discretion of the Option Plan Administrator, achieving certain milestones which may be defined by the Board from time to time or receiving a satisfactory performance review by the Corporation during the vesting period; or

     
  (b)

remaining as a Director or Officer of the Corporation during the vesting period.

Variation of Vesting Periods

2.18                       At the time an Option is granted which carries vesting provisions, the Option Plan Administrator may vary such vesting provisions, subject to Regulatory Approval and ratification by the Board.

2.19                       The vesting as determined by the Option Plan Administrator in accordance with this Option Plan shall be automatically and immediately accelerated such that all remaining Options will then be available for exercise upon the occurrence of a “take over bid” which is a “formal bid”, as those terms are defined under the Securities Act.

2.20                       In the event of a Change of Control occurring, Options granted to Directors, Officers and Employees which are subject to a vesting provision shall be deemed to have immediately vested upon the occurrence of the Change of Control.

2.21                       In the event of a Director not being nominated for re-election as a Director of the Corporation, although consenting to act and being under no legal incapacity which would prevent the Director from being a member of the Board, Options granted to such Director which are subject to a vesting provision shall be deemed to have vested on the date of Meeting upon which the Director is not re-elected.

Optionee Ceasing to be Director, Employee or Service Provider

2.22                       No Option may be exercised after the Participant has left the employ/office or has been advised his services are no longer required or his service contract has expired, subject to the following:

  (a)

in the case of the death of an Optionee, any vested Option held by him at the date of death will become exercisable by the Optionee’s lawful personal representatives, heirs or executors until the earlier of up to one year after the date of death of such Optionee and the date of expiration of the term otherwise applicable to such Option;

     
  (b)

Subject to the TSX Policies, and unless approved by the Board of Directors, Options granted to any Participant must expire within 90 days after the date the Optionee ceases to be employed by or provide services to the Corporation, or be a Director or Officer, but only to the extent that such Optionee was vested in the Option at the date the Optionee ceased to be so employed or to provide services to the Corporation or be a Director or Officer; and

     
  (c)

in the case of an Optionee who is an Employee or Service Provider being dismissed from employment or service for cause, or an employee of a Service Provider whose services are terminated for cause, such Optionee’s Options, whether or not vested at the date of dismissal will immediately terminate without right to exercise same.



- 8 -

2.23                       If an Optionee, or in the case of an Option granted to an Optionee who falls under the definition of Service Provider, an Optionee’s employer, retires, resigns or is terminated from employment or engagement with the Corporation, the loss of limitation, if any, pursuant to the Option Commitment with respect to Options which were not vested at that time or which, if vested, were cancelled, shall not give rise to any right to damages and shall not be included in the calculation of or form any part of any severance allowance, retiring allowance or termination settlement of any kind whatsoever in respect of such Options.

Non Assignable

2.24                       All Options will be exercisable only by the Optionee to whom they are granted and will not be assignable or transferable, except by will or by the laws of succession of the domicile of the deceased Optionee. No Option granted hereunder shall be pledged, hypothecated, charged, transferred, assigned or otherwise encumbered or disposed of, and if any attempt is made to do so, it will automatically become null and void.

Adjustment of the Number of Optioned Shares

2.25                       The number of Common Shares subject to an Option will be subject to adjustment in the events and in the manner following:

  (a)

in the event of a subdivision of Common Shares as constituted on the date hereof, at any time while an Option is in effect, into a greater number of Common Shares, the Corporation will thereafter deliver at the time of purchase of Optioned Shares hereunder, in addition to the number of Optioned Shares in respect of which the right to purchase is then being exercised, such additional number of Common Shares as result from the subdivision without an Optionee making any additional payment or giving any other consideration therefor;

     
  (b)

in the event of a consolidation of the Common Shares as constituted on the date hereof, at any time while an Option is in effect, into a lesser number of Common Shares, the Corporation will thereafter deliver and an Optionee will accept, at the time of purchase of Optioned Shares hereunder, in lieu of the number of Optioned Shares in respect of which the right to purchase is then being exercised, the lesser number of Common Shares as result from the consolidation;

     
  (c)

in the event of any change of the Common Shares as constituted on the date hereof, at any time while an Option is in effect, the Corporation will thereafter deliver at the time of purchase of Optioned Shares hereunder the number of shares of the appropriate class resulting from the said change as an Optionee would have been entitled to receive in respect of the number of Common Shares so purchased had the right to purchase been exercised before such change;

     
  (d)

in the event of a capital reorganization, reclassification or change of outstanding equity shares (other than a change in the par value thereof) of the Corporation, a consolidation, merger or amalgamation of the Corporation with or into any other company or a sale of the property of the Corporation as or substantially as an entirety at any time while an Option is in effect, an Optionee will thereafter have the right to purchase and receive, in lieu of the Optioned Shares immediately theretofore purchasable and receivable upon the exercise of the Option, the kind and amount of shares and other securities and property receivable upon such capital reorganization, reclassification, change, consolidation, merger, amalgamation or sale which the holder of a number of Common Shares equal to the number of Optioned Shares immediately theretofore purchasable and receivable upon the exercise of the Option would have received as a result thereof. The subdivision or consolidation of Common Shares at any time outstanding (whether with or without par value) will not be deemed to be a capital reorganization or a reclassification of the capital of the Corporation for the purposes of this Section 2.25(d);



- 9 -

  (e)

an adjustment will take effect at the time of the event giving rise to the adjustment, and the adjustments provided for in this Section are cumulative;

     
  (f)

the Corporation will not be required to issue fractional shares in satisfaction of its obligations hereunder. Any fractional interest in a security that would, except for the provisions of this Section 2.25(f), be deliverable upon the exercise of an Option will be cancelled and not be deliverable by the Corporation; and

     
  (g)

if any questions arise at any time with respect to the Exercise Price or number of Optioned Shares deliverable upon exercise of an Option in any of the events set out in this Section 2.25, such questions will be conclusively determined by the Corporation’s Board in their sole discretion.

COMMITMENT AND EXERCISE PROCEDURES

Option Commitment

2.26                       Upon grant of an Option hereunder, the Option Plan Administrator will deliver or will cause to be delivered to the Optionee an Option Commitment detailing the terms of such Options and upon such delivery the Optionee will be subject to the Option Plan and have the right to purchase the Optioned Shares at the Exercise Price set out therein subject to the terms and conditions hereof.

Manner of Exercise

2.27                       An Optionee who wishes to exercise his Option may do so by delivering to the Corporation a properly executed written form of notice of exercise in such form as the Corporation may require, containing such representations and warranties as the Corporation may require and designating, among other things:

The 10th Business Day period referred to in this Section 2.28 may not be changed by the Board under any circumstances.


- 10 -

No Options to be Granted During a Black-out Period

2.29                       Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein contained, no Option shall be granted hereunder during a Black-out Period.

Delivery of Certificate and Hold Periods

2.30                       As soon as practicable after receipt of the notice of exercise described in Section 2.27 and payment in full for the Optioned Shares being acquired, the Corporation will cause to be delivered a certificate to the Optionee for the appropriate number of Optioned Shares in either certificate form or at the election of the Optionee, by way of book entry form pursuant to the instructions given by the Optionee to the Corporation. Any share certificate, or certificate in book entry form, issued pursuant to this Section 2.30 will bear a legend stipulating any resale restrictions required under applicable securities laws.

an increase in the maximum number of Options that may be issued to Insiders within any one year period or that are issuable to Insiders at any time; and

  (d)

any amendment which would allow the transfer or assignment of an Option except in the case of the death of an Optionee as contemplated by Section 2.22(a).

Inability to Obtain Authority

4.6                         The inability of the Corporation to obtain Regulatory Approval, which Regulatory Approval is deemed by the Corporation to be necessary to the lawful issuance of any Common Shares hereunder, shall relieve the Corporation of any liability in respect of the failure to issue such Common Shares.

Insider Participation Limit

4.7                         The aggregate number of Common Shares reserved for issuance to Insiders under this Share Incentive Plan and all Share Compensation Arrangements, in the aggregate, shall not exceed 10% of the number of Outstanding Shares, and the number of Common Shares issued to Insiders, within any one year period, under this Share Incentive Plan and all Share Compensation Arrangements, in the aggregate, shall not exceed 10% of the Outstanding Shares.

Reservation of Common Shares

4.8                         The Corporation, during the term of this Plan, shall at all times reserve and keep available such number of Common Shares as shall be sufficient to satisfy the requirements of the Plan.

Withholding Tax

4.9                         The Corporation shall have the right to make all payments or distributions made pursuant to the Plan to an Optionee or Grantee, as applicable, net of any applicable federal taxes required by law to be withheld or paid as a result of the grant of any Option or Compensation Share, exercise of an Option or any other event occurring pursuant to this Plan. The Corporation shall have the right to withhold from such Optionee or Grantee, as applicable, such withholding taxes as may be required by law, or to otherwise require the Optionee or Grantee, as applicable, to pay such withholding taxes.

In satisfaction of the requirement to pay withholding taxes, the Optionee or Grantee may make a written election, which may be accepted or rejected in the discretion of the Board, to have withheld a portion of the Common Shares then issuable to the Optionee or Grantee pursuant to the Plan, having an aggregate Market Price equal to the withholding taxes.


- 13 -

Expenses

4.10                       All expenses incurred in connection with the Plan shall be borne by the Corporation.

Compliance with Laws

4.11                       The Corporation shall not be obliged to issue any Common Shares upon exercise of Options or pursuant to the Share Compensation Plan if the issue would violate any law or regulation or any rule of any governmental authority or stock exchange. The Corporation shall not be required to issue, register or qualify for resale any Common Shares issuable pursuant to this Plan pursuant to the provisions of a prospectus or similar document, provided that the Corporation shall notify the TSX and any other appropriate regulatory bodies in Canada of the existence of the Plan and the issuance and exercise of Options and the issuance of Common Shares under the Share Compensation Plan.

Governing Laws

4.12                       This Plan shall be governed by and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the Province of British Columbia and the laws of Canada applicable therein.

Entire Agreement

Termination

4.14                       The Board reserves the right in its absolute discretion to terminate the Plan with respect to all Common Shares in respect of Options and all Common Shares issuable under the Share Compensation Plan which have not yet been granted hereunder.

OPINION AND CONSENT OF BENNETT JONES LLP

Exhibits 5.1 and 23.1

December 16, 2016

Klondex Mines Ltd.
1055 West Hastings Street, Suite 2200
Vancouver, British Columbia V6E 2E9
Canada

Dear Sirs/Mesdames:

Re: Registration Statement on Form S-8

We have acted as counsel to Klondex Mines Ltd. (the " Corporation "), a British Columbia corporation, in connection with the Corporation's Registration Statement on Form S-8 (the " Registration Statement ") to be filed by the Corporation with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the " Commission ") under the Securities Act of 1933 , as amended (the " Securities Act "), relating to the registration of 12,860,717 common shares of the Corporation (the " Common Shares ") that may be issued pursuant to the Corporation's (i) share incentive plan dated for reference May 9, 2013 (the " Prior Share Incentive Plan "), and (ii) share option and restricted share unit plan dated effective May 13, 2016 (the " Current Share Incentive Plan " and together with the Prior Share Incentive Plan, the " Plans ").

In connection with rendering this opinion, we have, among other things:

  (a)

examined, among other things,

       
  (i)

a copy of the articles and notice of articles of the Corporation;

       
  (ii)

a certified copy dated December 16, 2016 of the resolutions passed by the directors of the Corporation approving, among other things, the Prior Share Incentive Plan;

       
  (iii)

a certified copy dated December 16, 2016 of the resolutions passed by the shareholders of the Corporation approving, among other things, the Prior Share Incentive Plan;

       
  (iv)

a certified copy dated December 16, 2016 of the resolutions passed by the directors of the Corporation approving, among other things, the Current Share Incentive Plan; and

       
  (v)

a certified copy dated December 16, 2016 of the resolutions passed by the shareholders of the Corporation approving, among other things, the Current Share Incentive Plan; and



- 2 -

  (b)

considered such questions of law, made such investigations and examined such originals, facsimiles or copies, certified or otherwise identified to our satisfaction, of such additional public and corporate records, records of corporate proceedings, certificates and other documents as we have considered relevant or necessary in order to render the opinion expressed below.

The opinion expressed herein is subject to the following exceptions, qualifications and assumptions:

  (a)

we have assumed, with respect to all of the documents examined by us, the genuineness of all signatures, the legal capacity at all relevant times of any individual signing any of such documents, the authenticity and completeness of all documents submitted to us as originals, the conformity to authentic originals of all documents submitted to us as a certified or true copy or as a reproduction (including facsimiles) and the truthfulness and accuracy of the corporate records of the Corporation and of all certificates of public officials and officers of the Corporation, not being aware of any reason why the addressee of this opinion would not be entitled to rely on any of the certificates upon which we are relying in rendering this opinion; and

     
  (b)

we have assumed that the Common Shares issued under the Plans will be issued in compliance with all applicable securities laws.

We are solicitors qualified to practice law in the Province of British Columbia and we express no opinion as to the laws of any jurisdiction, or as to any matters governed by the laws of any jurisdiction, other than the laws of the Province of British Columbia and the federal laws of Canada applicable therein.

Based on and relying upon the foregoing and subject to the qualifications hereinbefore and hereinafter set forth, we are of the opinion that the Common Shares will, when issued from time to time upon the due exercise or redemption, as applicable, of options or restricted share units granted under the Plans in accordance with the terms and conditions thereof and in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Plans, including without limitation the payment of the exercise price, if any, applicable thereto, be validly issued by the Corporation as fully paid and non-assessable common shares in the capital of the Corporation.

We hereby consent to the use of this opinion as an exhibit to the Registration Statement. In giving this consent, we do not thereby admit that we are included in the category of persons whose consent is required under Section 7 of the Securities Act or the rules and regulations of the Commission promulgated thereunder. This opinion may not be relied upon, used, nor quoted from or referred to in any other documents, by any other person or for any other purpose without our express written consent. This opinion is given as of the date hereof and is based upon laws in effect and facts understood to be in existence as of the date hereof. We express no opinion as to the effect of any future change in law or fact on our opinions herein, and we disclaim any obligation or undertaking to advise you of any change in law or fact affecting or bearing upon this opinion after the date hereof.
