The large intercepts in holes EA-12-22A and EA-12-23 rank as high in importance as those obtained in holes 17 and 29. The Company considers these results highly significant and indicative of excellent potential for a bulk tonnage gold deposit.

Sample analysis was done at ALS Minerals in North Vancouver, Canada for gold by the Fire Assay method on 30 gram subsamples with AAS finish. ALS is an independent ISO certified commercial laboratory. Quality control included monitoring results of certified reference standards, duplicates and blank samples submitted with the samples. Intervals are measured down the hole and may not represent true thickness.
