TSX.V: AVU 2

Some of the statements contained in this presentation are forward-looking statements. Forward-

looking statements are not historical facts and are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties

beyond the Company's control, including, but not exclusively, statements regarding potential

mineralization, exploration results, completion of work program and studies, and future plans and

objectives of the Company. Resource exploration, development and operations are highly

speculative, characterized by a number of significant risks, which even a combination of careful

evaluation, experience and knowledge may not eliminate, including, among other things,

unprofitable efforts resulting not only from the failure to discover mineral resources but from finding

mineral deposits which, though present, are insufficient in quantity and quality to return a profit from

production. This presentation does not constitute an offer of the securities described herein.

Qualified Person: Mr. Paul W. Kuhn, M.S., C.P.G., has acted as the qualified person as defined in

National Instrument 43-101 for this disclosure and supervised the preparation of the technical

information in this release.

of silica exhalite and cherty units

• Re-thinking of the targeting, based on recent mapping sug-

gests several new drill targets at Serrinha hill
