The underground work program is under the supervision of Robert Rodger,  P.Eng., the President of the Company, a qualified person under NI 43-101.  Sampling and assaying procedures are subject to a rigorous QA/QC program,  which includes insertion of standards and blanks for each batch of samples.  All samples were delivered in sealed packages to Eco-Tech Laboratories in  Whitehorse, YT for preparation and shipped by Eco-Tech to their laboratory in  Kamloops, BC for analyses. Samples that return values greater than 900 ppb  Gold (Au) by ICP were fire assayed for gold.
