Nov 02, 2010 (A Wilson) - Diamond drilling intersected a sequence of mafic metavolcanics and tronhjemitic intrusive. The hole intersected two silicified zones that carried the highest gold values. On surface there are several small randomly oriented shears. Gold values area associated with increased sulphide concentrations which appear proximal to the margins of the splay. Two parallel splays occur approximately 85 ft and 100 ft north and west of the main splay. All splays disappear beneath the lake.

Nov 02, 2010 (A Wilson) - A chip sample from the splay returned a value of 0.218 oz/t Au across 4 feet. Grab samples from this splay have returned values up to 0.498 oz/t Au. The splay has an apparent width of 10 to 12 feet. The best assay from drill core returned 0.044 oz/t Au over 3.2 ft in a silicified zone. Grab samples collected by Pele Gold in 2009 returned 2.52 g/t Au, 0.96 g/t Au and 1.55 g/t Au.
