Mineralization Comments

May 13, 2008 (D Draper) - Hole A05-07 (az. 265, dipping 50 degrees) was drilled to test for vein zones to the west of the Nickel Offsets deposit (see MDI42A11NE00034). Only sediments with barren-looking quartz veins were intersected; however one sample from a fault zone at 220.6m downhole returned an assay of 1.24 g/t Au over 0.8m. (T-5193)
