cell. The Company has received a third party appraisal of the cells and the independent directors have
approved the purchase price as it reflects a fair the value of the cells. The purchase price will be paid in
common shares of the Company and accordingly the Company will issue 2,065,600 common shares to
complete the acquisition. Closing of the acquisition will occur o n TSX Venture Exchange acceptance of the
Company’s filings. On closing the cells will be immediately shipped to the Company’s Mine at Pioche,

Permitting of the Company’s Pan American Mine is ongoing under the turn key management of

prepared and coordinated with the Nevada Department of Environmental Protection. A new processing plant
is under design and a contract for the supply and erection of the Concentrator as a turnkey supply will be
finalized shortly to be located at the mouth of the mine. The facilities will be located on patented ground
owned by the Company which greatly simplifies permitting.
Negotiations are ongoing for the financing of the entire project.
