Geo, to the Company as a consultant in the role of Lead Geoscientist. Stephen brings with him 35 years of experience in mineral and placer gold exploration in the Cariboo District, British Columbia. Mr. Perry Little, CEO of the Company states, "In our combined experience in the Cariboo region, our team knows of no geologist with Steve's depth and breadth of knowledge of the geology in the Cariboo region, particularly in the area of our existing mineral and placer claims. He is one of the few geologists that we have encountered who has both an extensive knowledge of and hands-on experience with placer mining as well as hard rock projects. We could not ask for a better fit."
Stephen will work in conjunction with our Mine Manager, Kyle Townsend and his team in planning and executing exploration and development on the Company's 90 square kilometer Fontaine Lode Gold project. The Fontaine project is contiguous to Osisko Development Corp.'s Cariboo Gold Project and also to mineral claims being explored by Omineca Mining and Metals Ltd.

Stephen will also be continuing in his present consulting role with our neighbor, Omineca Mining and Metals Ltd.
