Copper and gold targets on the Thorn Project include drilling the Trapper Gold Target for 5000 to 10,000m
to expand on the broad intervals of near surface gold mineralization that was discovered in 2021, where
hole 186 returned 187.5m of 1.6 g/t Au including 139.0m of 2.14 g/t Au including 11.0m of 19.25 g/t gold,
see new release of November 12, 2021. Up to six thousand meters of drilling are proposed for the Camp
Creek Cu-Au-Ag-Mo porphyry Target where h ole 184 intercepted 318m of 0.69% CuEq including 14m of
1.04% CuEq, see news release dated October 19, 2021. Additional geological mapping, soil -rock
geochemistry and geophysical surveys are planned for other porphyry targets on the Thorn Project such
as t he Metla Target where recent surface samples of potassic altered , Triassic aged diorite porphyry
returned 4.7% Cu, 1.8 g/t Au, 31 g/t Ag. Further mapping and sampling at the West Target is planned
where Eocene aged copper porphyry style mineralization has been observed in grab samples yielding
multi-percent copper assays. Recent age dating results from the Camp Creek and Trapper porphyries
suggests these centres are Cretaceous in age, having implications for the project in that this in a long-lived
mineralizing system or more specifically an Eocene to Triassic porphyry belt.
