Note: AuEQ(Au Equivalent)calculated using US$800 / oz for Au and $2.00
per lb for Cu:AuEQ=Au+(Cu*22.05*2.00/800*31.1035)
The above drill intercepts are approximately 90% true widths.
The above stated AuEq are head grades and do not include
metallurgical recovery rates or net smelter returns. Assaying for
the above drill core was completed by AGAT of Mississauga, Ontario.
A further 7 holes are pending for the current 2010 drill program
of which 6 are from the Maybrun Main zone and one deep hole of
about 650m in core length is pending from the Footwall Zone.
In addition, approximately 700 further drill core samples,
averaging about 1m each, are pending from the Footwall Zone from
about 22 holes between 2006 to 2010. The Footwall Zone is
contiguous to and underlies the Maybrun Main Zone.
