Carscallen Township Property
The Company holds an option to purchase a 100% interest in nine property patents covering
approximately 120 hectares in Carscallen Township adjacent to Highway 101, 21 kilometres
southwest of Timmins, Ontario.
The property is located in the West Timmins district, which is the western extension of the
Timmins gold camp, and is bisected by the Bristol Fault. The Timmins gold camp has been in
production since 1909 and has produced over 70 million ounces of gold. There are several
active mines and advanced exploration and development projects currently underway in the
Timmins camp.
The property is surrounded by Lake Shore Gold Corp.’s 130-square kilometre Timmins West
Gold Mine Complex, which includes its Thunder Creek project and its Timmins Mine, with
reported probable reserves of 3.4 million tonnes bearing 7.52 grams of gold per tonne. The
property is also approximately three kilometres east of Melkior Resources’ Carscallen project
which reported drilling results of 60.27 grams of gold per tonne over 1.8 metres and 19.8 grams
of gold per tonne over 3.3 metres, and approximately 4.5 kilometres northeast of Nebu
Resources’ West Timmins project which reported 98.4 grams of gold per tonne over 4.7 metres,
according to their respective websites. There is no certainty that similar results will be obtained
from the Company’s property.
In April 2010, the Company completed a geophysical survey of the property. The survey
indicated the presence of several strong, well-defined induced polarization and linear magnetic
anomalies.
In May 2010, the Company granted an option to SGX Resources Inc. to purchase a 50%
interest in the Company’s property. To exercise the option, SGX paid the Company $100,000
and issued $75,000 of SGX shares, and assumed the remaining payment obligations under the
Company’s head option agreement (of which $50,000 was paid), except for the issuance of up
to 900,000 Company shares. SGX terminated its option on November 30, 2010.
Upon review and interpretation of all the data accumulated by the Company, a significant
through-going structure – the Bristol Fault Zone – indicated by ground magnetics was identified.
This structure is believed to be highly prospective to host gold mineralization. Drilling in 2010 by
SGX Resources Inc. did not test the Bristol Fault Zone, but successfully identified a parallel,
strongly anomalous gold-bearing zone in drill holes NC-10-07 and NC-10-01 approximately 300
metres north of the interpreted Bristol Fault Zone.
In January 2011, the Company initiated a new exploration program to follow up on the recently
discovered gold bearing trend, drill a series of 250-metre holes to test the numerous targets
along the Bristol Fault Zone, and target untested IP anomalies defined in the previous
exploration.
