Mineralization Comments

Dec 23, 2010 (D Draper) - The best assays from the initial Amoco drillhole came from a unit of graphitic slate and schist. One sample over 5ft (1.5m) returned 0.08 oz/t Au (2.74 g/t), 0.064% Cu and 0.231% Zn and a lower section assayed 0.473% Zn. (T-1691) Results from Getty's follow-up program: DL-82-11, collared approximately 120m southwest of the Amoco hole, returned 8400 ppm Zn and 1200 ppm Cu over 0.5m samples of a unit of graphitic cherty metasediments; DL-84-14, collared 130m north of Amoco hole, assayed 1300 ppm Cu over 0.5m. (T-2443) Dentonia's hole, AW-05-01, collared approx 75m southwest of Amoco 6-1, assayed 309 ppm Au. (T-5269)
