Mineralization Comments

Jul 05, 2010 (D Draper) - The best analyses were 4.1 ft of 0.2% Cu and 0.2% Zn, and 4.2 ft of 0.20 dwt/t Au, 0.2% Cu, and 0.15% Zn. Both samples were from intermediate, garnetiferous gneiss. A sample from drill hole 159E-4, drilled one claim east of 159E-2 and with the same lithology, returned 0.2 dwt/t Au over 1 ft. One instance of molybdenite within a quartz vein was noted in the log for 159E-2 and 3 occurrences of moly were noted in 159E-4.
