The Akie Zn-Pb-Ag Project
The 100% owned Akie property is situated within the Kechika Trough, the southernmost area of the
regionally extensive Paleozoic Selwyn Basin and one of the most prolific sedimentary basins in the wor ld
for the occurrence of SEDEX zinc-lead-silver and stratiform barite deposits.
Drilling on the Akie property by the Company since 2005 has identified a significant body of baritic-z inc-
lead SEDEX mineralization known as the Cardiac Cree k deposit. The deposit is hosted by siliceous,
carbonaceous, fine grained clastic rocks of the Middle to Late Devonian Gunsteel Formation.
With additional drilling completed in 2017, the Com pany has updated the estimate of mineral
resources at Cardiac Creek, as follows:
5% Zinc Cut-Off Grade Contained Metal:
Category Tonnes

Indicated 22.7 8.32 1.61 14.1 4.162 0.804 10.3
Inferred 7.5 7.04 1.24 12.0 1.169 0.205 2.9
In addition to the Akie Project, the Company owns 100% of eight of eleven large, contiguous property blocks
that comprise the Kechika Regional Project includin g the advanced Mt. Alcock prospect. The Kechika
Regional Project also includes the Pie, Yuen and Ci rque East properties within which the Company
