Grab samples were collected on our fully owned flagship Knauss Creek property located 35 km northeast of Terrace, BC. Highlights include: Grab sample C363284 returned 69.3 g/t Au, 331 g/t Ag and 5.78% Cu on the Copper Ridge showing; Grab sample C363279 returned 38.4 g/t Au, 51.8 g/t Ag and 3.19% Cu on the Copper Ridge showing; Grab sample C363283 returned 7.9 g/t Au, 198 g/t Ag and 10.42% Cu on the Copper Ridge showing; Grab sample C363277 returned 2.8 g/t Au, 974 g/t Ag, 33.3% Pb and 4.1% Zn on the Hugin showing; Grab sample C363144 returned 4.4 g/t Au, 627 g/t Ag and 0.58% of Pb on the Kandy showing. The Copper Ridge showing is in the southern part of the property. The sampling was done on the ridge of the mountain around a staining in azurite and malachite that goes down on a vertical slope over a few tens of meters. Seven samples were taken on a north-south strike length of about 180 meters. The samples were collected in small quartz veins or fractures which contain malachite, azurite, chalcopyrite and pyrite. The results are listed in table 1.

Both showings are separated by a steep valley. Four samples were taken there and three of them contain anomalous values. Samples C363144 and C363148 are from quartz vein blocks. All samples were taken near the summit of this part of the mountain, it is assumed that the source is nearby. The results are shown in table 2.
