Tatasham Drilling Campaign TSXV:ARU OTCQB:AUIAF FRANKFURT:20Q 11
Slide 12: Tatasham: Sinter Found at Surface
Tatasham: Sinter Found at Surface • Two holes drilled at Tatasham; two more planned • Geological evidence of an epithermal gold-silver system – we do not know whether it is mineralized • Porphyry could be below at unknown depth Laminated sinter, brecciated and healed by epithermal banded chalcedonic
Slide 13: Well-known Epithermal Deposits
Well-known Epithermal Deposits Waldemar Lindgren, 1922 “epithermal” = Over, above (think “epidermis”, outer layer of the skin) Well-known epithermal deposits plotted against depth in metres below the paleosurface TSXV:ARU OTCQB:AUIAF FRANKFURT:20Q 13
Slide 14: Sinter from Yellowstone National Park
Sinter from Yellowstone National Park These are examples of sinter from Yellowstone National Park. If you find them they ALWAYS identify geothermal activity AND where the old “paleosurface” was. TSXV:ARU OTCQB:AUIAF FRANKFURT:20Q 14

Slide 16: Breccia from Tatasham
Breccia from Tatasham This is an example of breccia from Tatasham. Why is it important? Think of it as the hot spring system “clearing its throat” from time to time with a steam or gas eruption. Breccias identify where the old vent system was and the gold-silver zone should be more or less directly
Slide 17: Tatasham magnetic signature at 300 metres depth
Tatasham magnetic signature as it would look like if you were recording 300 metres below the surface. Classic “doughnut” shape with a magnetic low and resistivity high in the centre. It might look like a meteorite impact crater, but it’s a buried porphyry system. TSXV:ARU OTCQB:AUIAF FRANKFURT:20Q 1
