Mineralization Comments

Apr 24, 2015 (A Wilson) - A 3.0 ft. of core between 30-33 m of DDH CL-1 returned an assay of 0.03 oz/t Au, 0.24 oz/t Ag and 0.02% Mo. A 3 m section of core between 58.2 and 61.2 m assayed nil Mo, 0.22 oz/t Au and 0.13 oz/t Ag. A 2.3 ft. wide sample of quartz feldspar porphyry returned an assay of 0.17 oz/t Au and 0.05 oz/t Ag. Gold values within the shear at the main showing range from 0.02 to 0.15 oz/t Au. Fractured iron formation gave the highest assay of 1.55 oz/t Au. Assays from the 1985 OMEP drill program returned 0.119 oz/t Au over 7 ft. and 0.06 oz/t Au over 26.5 ft. in CK-85-1; 0.07 oz/t Au over 10.0 ft. in CK-85-3, 0.05 oz/t Au over 63 ft. including 4 zones of 5 ft. of 0.1 oz/t Au. DDH CK-85-5 intersected a 40 ft. wide fracture zone with 10 ft. averaging 0.045 oz/t Au. DDH CK-85-6 intersected a number of narrow, sheared and altered zones, one of which assayed 0.24 oz/t Au over 2.1 ft. Assays from the Freewest drilling returned best assays ranging from 0.015 oz/t Au to 0.187 oz/t Au.
