Mineralization Comments

Apr 30, 2014 (D Draper) - Notations on a drill section indicate a uranium assay of 0.05 (%?) was obtained from hole #4 at 200 feet, but the assay sheet confirming this was not submitted. An assay sheet that is on file reports a U3O8 assay of 0.033% was returned from a chip sample (as opposed to split core samples also reported on the sheet) designated No. 11; however, no definite source or location is given for this sample in the information on file. (AF T-2310, donated data). Although the assay results meet or better the commodity criterion, this occurrence has been categorized as discretionary by the initial compiler due to the uncertainty of the data.
