not experience any material accident; and the Company will be able to identify and acquire additional mineral interests

uncertainties and assumptions which are difficult to predict. In particular, there is no guarantee that exploration work,

potential inability to find suitable acquisition opportunities and/or complete the same; and other risks and uncertainties
listed in the Company’s public filings. These ri sks, as well as others, could cause actual results and events to vary

economic resources will be discovered or developed at the Property. Acc ordingly, readers should not place undue
reliance on forward -looking statements and information, which are qualified in their entirety by this cautionary
statement. Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those in forward looking statements include,
but are not limited to, continued availability of capital and financing and general economic, market or business

directors, employees, advisors or consultants and fees charged by service providers. There can be no assurance that
