Drill Program

The Company undertook an exploratory reverse circulation drill program in an effort to test near surface mineralization in both the western and eastern pit zones. The program commenced in early November and was completed in mid-December. In total, 12 holes were drilled, six (6) in the west and six (6) in the east for a total of 1154.54 meters. All holes were sampled from top to bottom in 5-foot intervals. In total, 736 samples were collected and these are being analyzed at this time by AGAT Laboratories. Full results will be made available once management has received and reviewed them which should be sometime in early 2012. The Company intends to conduct 'Pilot Plant' scale metallurgical test work in an effort to determine how to achieve an optimal final concentrate-grade product. The results of this test work will be released once completed and reviewed by management. Wesley Raven, P.Geo, Sr. Vice-President Exploration, supervised the program.


Non-Binding Letter of Intent

The Company has entered into a non-binding Letter of Intent with an unnamed company at this time. A confidentiality agreement was also executed. Both parties continue to work towards a more formal agreement and shareholders will be kept informed of any progress in this regard as both Companies move toward, and agree on, their defined roles.
