date of the Third Option, or (ii) issuing to Mountain View 3,000,000 Common Shares.

The Property

The Property is located in the Snowstorm Mountains Mining District in the western part of Elko County, Nevada.

The center of the Property is approximately 17 km northwest of the town of Midas, the location of Klondex’s Ken

Snyder (“Midas”) underground gold mi ne and approximately 18 km east-northeast of Newmont’s open pit Twin

Creeks gold mine.

The Property contains numerous historic prospects w ith no obvious production; the earliest known exploration

dates to 1907. There was no activity on the Property be tween the 1930’s and 1980. An aeromagnetic survey,

along with trenching, was conducted in the 1980’s. Dr illing exploration commenced in 1989 and was conducted

by various companies through 2000. Geologic mapping w as published in 1993. Mexivada acquired the Property

in 2007, and West Kirkland Mining leased the Property in 2010 and drilled two core holes.

Of a total of 53 holes drilled on the Property, only 3 were core holes. The bulk of the percussion (open hole) and

reverse circulation (RC) drilling was performed along a dominantly east-west trending structural zone located

from 500 m to 1,000 m north of the current target area. A boulder train, yielding results as high as 39 g/t Au

occurs along this northern trend, but drilling failed to identify the source.

In 2010, West Kirkland Mining drilled two core holes on the Property. DH-2010-1 is located on the Clayton

Veins system, situated about 1 km south-southwest of the northern zone. Beginning at 64.4 m depth, the hole

intercepted a 2m vein zone that assayed 5.5 g/t Au, incl uding a 1 m interval @ 9.27 g/t Au and 73 g/t Ag. The

Clayton Veins system trends NW-SE and has been tested by only this one drill hole. The parallel Prochnau Veins

system, located about 300 m to the NE, has not yet been drill-tested. Both these vein systems are open to the NW

and SE, and evidence of veining has been traced over 2,000 m strike length.

The exploration target/model for the Property is based on the Midas mine located about 16 km (10 miles) to the

south-east. Goldstorm sits near the intersection of three im portant gold-bearing structural corridors: the Getchell

Trend; the Carlin/Midas Trend; and the Northern Nevada Rift. It is interpreted that the intercept in hole DH-2010-

1 is near the top of a blind, potentially high grade shoot similar to the geological setting observed at the Midas

Mine.
