This gabbro sample contains quartz veining and sulfide mineralization. The sample also returned an anomalous value of 238 parts per million (ppm) copper. Two other grab samples from this outcrop returned 0.42 g/t and 0.71 g/t gold, both consisting of gabbro with sulfide mineralization and +/- quartz veining. Another grab sample returned 5760 ppm copper (0.576% Cu). A historic 2002 rock sample from this area was reported to return 3.2 g/t gold. A 2004 rock sample from this area reported as quartz breccia vein was reported to return 2.2 g/t gold. A Qualified Person has not verified the 2002 and 2004 gold bearing samples from this area.
