The Rainbow Canyon property comprises 53 unpatented lode mining claims that cover an area of 417

hectares in the Olinghouse mining district about 40 kilometres east of Reno in Washoe County, Nevada.

Geologically, Rainbow Canyon is a low-sulphidation gold prospect located in the northern

Walker Lane structural and metallogenic domain.

Gold mineralization has been identified at numerous locations throughout the property, primarily in the

form of quartz veins up to 20cm wide which assay in grab sample from 0 to 79 g/t (ppm) gold. The veins

occur in wide (up to 30m ) zones of strong argillic alteration over a NE strike distance of more than two

kilometers. Most of the veins dip steeply to the southeast. Andesites, basalts and rhyolites of the

Miocene Alta and Old Gregory Formation underlie most of the property.
