Mineralization Comments

Jan 13, 2012 (Mark Puumala) - This occurrence is based on a reported assay of 0.27 oz/ton Au from Golsil Mines diamond drill hole No. 48 (AFRI53C13SE0009). The mineralized horizon at this location was reported on the drill hole log to consist of rusty sheared greenstone with quartz stringers and 5% pyrite. This zone was intersected over a core length of 8 m. However, the length of the assayed section was not provided. A sketch map in the assessment file indicates that the drill hole targeted an east-trending rusty shear zone that had been trenched immediately to the east of the drill hole. A second drill hole (No. 49) also targeted this structure. However, only a trace of gold was reported in this drill hole. 2007 Prospecting report completed, no significant assays reported. 2011: No new information
