Mineralization Comments

Mar 11, 2014 (A Wilson) - A cluster of 5 drill holes completed near the television antenna in Schumacher returned low, but anomalous gold values. DDH 54097-0 returned a best assay of 14.743 ppm Au over 1.47m. This assay was the highest value in a total core intersection of 19.11 m. The lowest assay in the 19.11 m was 1.029 ppm Au over 1.89 m. Assays from J.P. Sheridan’s trench over the Meunier Claim returned values of 0.128 oz/t Au and 0.029% Cu from the quartz vein, 0.114 oz/t Au and 0.05% Cu from a quartz ankeritic part of the vein. The highest copper value recovered from the vein was 0.171% Cu from a quartz ankeritic part of the west end of the trench.
