The Company can earn a 100% interest in the Property, subject to a 2% net smelter returns royalty (the “Royalty”), by issuing an aggregate of 400,000 common shares (the “Share Payments”), and making $40,000 in cash payments (the “Cash Payments”) to the Optionor on or before the dates set out below:

Closing
Closing of the Transaction remains subject to the completion of a technical report in respect of the Property, completion of the Offering, and the approval of the TSXV.

Project Overview
The Cooper Lake and Golden Lake properties are contiguous with the Company’s recently optioned Matabitchuan Project. Matabitchuan is located 50kms south of Cobalt, Ontario mining camp, a five-element (Co-Ni-Ag-Cu+/-Au ) vein style district which became one of the largest silver-producing areas in the world, eventually yielding a total of 460 million ounces (more than 13 million kilograms) of silver – over $20-billion worth at today’s silver prices. The district contains several known deposits, historically mined, which have been targeted for their cobalt potential.
Despite the Property’s proximity to this district and the mining towns of Temagami and Silver Centre (abandoned), it has received comparatively little geological or exploration attention over the years.
