THANK YOU
Qualifying Statements Au_Eq grade calculated using gold to silver ratio of 1:60. The gold: silver ratio is determined using metal price and recovery factors and determined according to the parameters below: – Au Price US$1500/oz – Ag Price US$28/oz – Au processing recovery 90% – Ag processing recovery 80% – Metal prices approximate three year averages for each of gold and silver. – Processing recoveries were determined from updated metallurgical testwork carried out by independent consultants on diamond drill core from Casposo. The equivalency factor is calculated by the formula: Gold to Silver ratio = (gold price ÷ silver price) x (gold recovery ÷ silver recovery) = (1500 ÷ 28) x (.90 ÷ .80) = 60 Gold equivalency (Au_Eq) is calculated by the formula: Au_Eq g/t = Au g/t + (Ag g/t ÷ 60.00) Information of a scientific or technical nature that which relates to exploration results, Mineral Resources or ore Reserves was prepared under the supervision of Peter J.
