Sturgeon Bridge Property Description

Gold mineralization at the Sturgeon Bridge Properties (MDI42E11NW00003) was first discovered in

1934 and a 5 hole drill program consisting of 395m was completed in 1955 that intersected light to

heavy pyrite and chalcopyrite mineralization in a zone of sheared greenstone with numerous quartz

stringers (MDI42E11NW00003). Kodiak Exploration Ltd. completed 2,565m in 9 diamond drillholes on

the property in 2008. Assay highlights from the 2008 program are taken from the Kodiak Exploration

diamond drill report (File ID: 20000004143) and include:

2.53 g/t Au over 1.6 m in SB08-03;

1.75 g/t Au and 9.56 g/t Ag over 3.8 m in SB08-05;

66.7 g/t Au over 0.3 m in SB08-13; and

1.19 g/t Au over 4.3 m in SB08-14.

MDI42E11NW00003 describes the main zone at Sturgeon Bridge as striking approximately 240

degrees with a variable width from 6 to 23 m along a 490 m strike length. At one point along a 48 m

north-trending trench, visible gold was found within brecciated portions of the quartz veins

(MDI42E11NW00003).

Although gold is the primary commodity, polymetallic quartz veining occurs with the structure and patches

of chalcopyrite were observed in quartz-breccia zones that contain 1045 ppm Zn in a gossan zone in the

eastern exposure (Mason and White, 1992). Surface grab samples returned 1211 ppm Cu and 43 ppm

Zn from 91-MFC-7 and 240 ppm Cu and 1045 ppm Zn from 91-MFC-9 (MDI42E11NW00003).

Prospecting by Onchulenko and Gehrels in 2018 returned 6.5 g/t Au and the mineralized zone has been

traced for over 2 km strike length on the property (MDI42E11NW00003).
