THE DOME MOUNTAIN MINE
The Dome Mountain Mine includes a past producing mine on tenures consisting of 42 contiguous mining claims and one
mining lease totaling 10,970 hectares, located approximately 38 kilometers east of the town of Smithers in northwest British
Columbia. Expenditures on the mine by past operators, including Gavin Mines, Timmins and Noranda, have totaled in excess
of $68 million, $28 Million of which was spent by Gavin in the past 12 years. Mine permitting and significant infrastructure
construction and underground development was completed on the mine between 2010 and 2012, including about 75% of the
planned underground development necessary for commencing production from the site. The Dome Mountain Project holds a
Mining Permit and Environmental Management Act Permit (EMA) providing for up to 75,000 tonnes annually.
The following provides a summary of the infrastructure and underground development completed during that period:
• Mine dry/office building
• Electrocoagulation water treatment plant
• Water and sewer for all surface facilities
• Pipelines system for mine water
• Mechanics shop
• Electrical work into the mine
• Fuel storage and distribution system
• Major earthwork projects completed
• Underground development
The Dome Mountain area has a long history of exploration that resulted in the discovery of numerous gold bearing quartz-
carbonate veins. Gold mineralization was first located on the property in the late 1800s and considerable surface and
underground work was done in 1923-24. Resumption of exploration in the 1980s led to the discovery of the Boulder Vein
system in 1985. Underground mining was initiated in August 1991 by Timmins Nickel Inc. and its joint venture partner,
Habsburg Resources Inc. and ceased in May 1993. During this period 43,900 tonnes at an average grade of 12.0 grams per
tonne gold were reportedly mined from shrinkage stopes accessed from trackless drift developments on the 1290 and 1370
levels.
THE BIG ONION PROPERTY
The Big Onion is a porphyry copper project located 16 kilometres east of the town of Smithers and consists of 13 contiguous
mineral claims comprising a total area of 4,493 hectares. Following a total of 218 drill holes totaling 41,010 meters a NI 43-
101 resource report dated May 31, 2009 was prepared by Giroux Consultants Ltd.
The Company will provide additional technical information on the Dome Mountain Mine and the Big Onion Project in a
subsequent news release pending completion of the Company’s technical review of the projects.
