The

2,400,000 common shares for gross proceeds of $300,000.
In connection with the Private Placement, the Company incurred total finder's fees of $55,625.

The transaction
is exempt from the formal valuation and minority shareholder approval requirements of MI 61-101
pursuant to section 5.5(a) and section 5.7(1)(a) as the fair market value of the officers' and directors'

The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the Private Placement to drill recently identified high-
grade gold targets at the Cuiú Cuiú gold project located in northern Brazil and for general corporate and
working capital purposes.
Alan Carter, President and CEO, stated, "We would like to personally thank our shareholders and
investors for their support in closing this significantly oversubscribed financing. This funding will allow us
to drill test a number of recently identified high-grade gold targets and we look forward to issuing regular
updates as we continue to unlock the high-grade gold potential of this exciting district."
