Assays are pending on eight additional holes recently completed on the Davidson
Gold Project claims. It is anticipated that assay results on these holes will be
available prior to month end.
A total of four holes were completed in four separate areas of the Blackwater
deposit for the purpose of generating representative samples for metallurgical
testing. Two of the four holes (BW-MET01 and BW-MET04) were drilled on the
Davidson Gold Project claims. The assays for these two holes are shown in the
following table.
