Mineralization Comments

Jun 30, 2020 (Therese Pettigrew) - A grab sample from an altered zone assayed 0.62 oz/t Au (21.3 g/t Au). The sample was about 40% white glassy quartz and considerable coarse cubes of pyrite. The showing appears to be two parallel altered sections with scattered quartz stringers. The altered sections are each about 30” wide and about 18” apart. The zone was traced for 170 feet. (Assessment report 52F16NE8564).
