Mar 31, 2009 (A Wilson) - A 12 foot section of core returned 0.858% Ni and 0.75% Cu between 385 and 397 feet. A 10 foot section of core returned 0.223% Ni and 0.35% Cu between 270 and 280 feet (1.12% Ni, 0.50% cu over 2 ft; 1.32% Ni, 0.4% Cu over 3 ft; 1.54% Ni, 0.7% Ni over 1.5 ft). The two mineralized zones consist of disseminated pyrrhotite and chalcopyrite and pyrrhotite and chalcopyrite in fractures in serpentinized gabbro. Elevated and anomalous Cu and Ni values were returned from every drill hole. Drill hole A-8 returned Zn values of 3.17% over 2 feet in mineralized greenstone. Diamond drilling by Prospectors Alliance included assays for Co, Pt, Pd. Pt values of 152 ppb, Pd 896 ppb and Co values of 186 ppm were intersected in 5.2 m of intermediate metavolcanics.
