Mineralization Comments

Apr 22, 2016 (A Wilson) - A sample collected in 1986 from a blasted pit (F31473) returned an assay of 0.02 oz./t Au and 0.61 oz/t Ag. Wilzel Resources diamond drill hole WZ-98-1 intersected 2.33% Cu over 15 feet. Rock samples 618859 assayed 3990 ppm Cu. DDH BC87-01 was drilled on patented claim L884189. The drill core returned interesting values of platinum, palladium and rhodium. Platinum values ranged from 0.07 g/t to <0.14 g/t; palladium values ranged from <0.07 g/t to <0.14 g/t and rhodium values ranged from 0.03 g/t to 0.06 g/t Rh. The drill hole was drilled just to the east of WZ-98-1.
