Each unit consists of one flow-through common share in the capital of the Company and one-half of one non-transferable common share purchase warrant, each whole warrant entitling the holder to acquire one additional non flow-through common share at a price of C$0.25 per share for eighteen (18) months from the date of issuance. The funds will be used for the 5,000 m diamond drilling program to increase the resource in the Rainbow Two and Berg zones, by testing the extensions of these zones above the 1400 m elevation and below the 1200 m elevation. In connection with this offering, the Company has agreed with an eligible registrant to pay a finders' fee in cash of $32,000 and grant finders' warrants on terms similar to the warrants included in the units to purchase 188,179 common shares.

THE TSX VENTURE EXCHANGE DOES NOT ACCEPT RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE ADEQUACY OR ACCURACY OF THIS NEWS RELEASE. This news release includes certain forward looking statements in respect to various issues including upcoming events. These forward looking statements are based upon current expectations which involve risks and uncertainties that could cause actual outcomes and results to differ materially. Mineral exploration is subject to a high degree of risk, which even a combination of experience, knowledge, and careful evaluation may fail to overcome. Exploration activities seldom result in the discovery of a commercially viable mineral resource. Exploration activities are also expensive. The Company will therefore require additional financing to carry on its business, and such financing may not be available when it is needed. The Company disclaims any obligation to revise any forward looking statements as a result of information received after the fact or regarding future events.
