The Company recently completed exploration in other select areas. Assays are pending for 2018
rock and soil samples. Quartz float samples collected by the Company during 2017 in one target
area (referred to as the Branden Zone) in the northern region of the Property returned 57.2 and 200
grams / tonne (g/t) gold (News Release of August 28, 2017). A 0.32 meter long chip s ample
collected across the Shawn’s Shot V ein by the Company in 2017 returned 48.2 g/t gold (news
