Mineralization Comments

Dec 07, 2005 (A Wilson) - Drill hole 110-6 returned a best assay of 1.02% Cu, 0.14% Zn and 0.03% Ni over 4 ft. The best Ni value was 0.215% Ni over 8 ft. in ultramafic. Diamond drilling by Falconbridge in 2000 returned Ni values ranging from 15 ppm to 2285 ppm over 3 m. Cr values in the same holes ranged from 90 ppm to 4925 ppm over 3 m.
