A program of prospecting, mapping, soil sampling and claim staking was completed.  The Company's 100% controlled and optioned land position now encompasses about 7,000 acres. A map illustrating the location of the current Endurance Property is available for viewing at www.endurancegold.com. \n\nAs announced on September 3, 2013, the summer program has confirmed the discovery of the QL Copper Prospect, located in the southeastern claim group, which returned copper values from a single grab sample which assayed 2.65% total copper associated with malachite, chrysocolla and copper wad.   A second grab sample, located 93 metres away, returned 2,750 ppm copper associated with an iron-oxide gossan. Both of the copper-rich samples may be locally transported and consist of brecciated fine grained and hematized chalcedonic quartz in an area mapped as Archean-aged metasediments. The QL copper Prospect is located in the southeastern claim group.   \n\nAt the QL Copper Prospect, a soil sampling grid consisting of 39 soil samples was completed and has identified a 400 by 100 metre copper-in-soil anomaly (greater than 50 ppm copper) with a continuous 300 metre area that exceeds 100 ppm copper-in-soil. The QL Copper Prospect grab samples noted above are associated with soil samples containing 283 ppm, 232 ppm, and 196 ppm copper. Additional high 328 ppm and 251 ppm copper values in soil remain to be explained. The QL copper soil anomaly remains open to expansion and an expanded soil sampling grid is warranted. The soil anomaly is largely underlain by an area recently mapped as Archean-aged metasediment marginal to the intrusive contact with an Eocene aged quartz latite intrusive.\n\nAn additional 525 soil samples on four soil grids were also completed in the northern group of staked and optioned claims. This soil sampling program has successfully identified new areas that...
