Mineralization Comments

Nov 23, 2012 (D Farrow) - Mineralization: Confined to uraniferous pyritized qtz pebble conglomerate bed 2-40' thick. Carbon fragments related to gold mineralization. Assays: 3.5 g/t Au across 13 m in surface channel sampling, and 1.67 g/t Au over 8.4 m in vertical drill holes, 0.8% Cu and 0.017% U3O8 (Avg U3O8 0.002 - 0.008%), Location and Extent: 65 km north-east of Sudbury - Mineralized Mississagi conglomerate appears to underlie basin area west of Silver Lk to Mcnish Twp line.


Aug 27, 2012 (A Wilson) - The best assay in the drill program was 0.028% U3O8 over 2 feet in drill hole I-33-S. Assays of drill core assayed between tr to 0.05 oz/t Au over 5 feet.
