Jul 15, 2014 (A Wilson) - A grab sample collected from a trench by Canbrae Mines Ltd. returned an assay of 0.07 oz t Au over 1.5 m; all other assays were less than 0.05 oz/t Au. A diamond drill hole completed by Canbrae returned an assay of 0.29 oz t Au over 1.6 m. This intersection is 15 m north of the 0.07 oz surface value. Together these suggest a gold-bearing zone up to 30 m long.
