The PEA was prepared by Mine Development Associates in
accordance with the definitions in Canadian National Instrument
43-101 ("NI 43-101"). The PEA is considered preliminary in nature.
It includes Inferred mineral resources that are considered too
speculative to have the economic considerations applied that would
enable classification as mineral reserves. There is no certainty
that the conclusions within the PEA will be realised. Mineral
resources that are not mineral reserves do not have demonstrated
economic viability.
The technical information contained in this news release has
been reviewed and approved by Red Eagle Mining's Vice President of
Exploration, Jeff Toohey P.Eng., who is a Qualified Person as
defined under NI 43-101.
