INTRODUCTION

Roy Annett, a prospector from Shining Tree, Ontario, acquired by staking during June and July of 2002 a portion of the historic McIntyre-McDonald property in south-western Macmurchy Township, which came open for staking in early June due to non-payment of taxes. Shortly thereafter a program of linecutting, stripping and washing, trenching and sampling was commenced on the claims. The bulk of this work was concentrated in the area where previous operators in the period prior to 1920 had carried out extensive trenching and had sunk two shallow shafts on new Claim 1046148. This report describes the work carried out by Annett and his partners during the summer of 2002.

PROPERTY DESCRIPTION, LOCATION AND ACCFSS

The Annett property consists of two contiguous mining claims registered in the name of Roy Annett, Client No. 102630, details of which are tabled below.

Claim No.10461481046149

Units11

Record DateJune 4. 2002Julvl 0.2002

The claims straddle and are bisected by the waters of the western branch of the Montreal River. The land portion of the claims occupy mainly higher ground rising to a maximum of thirty metres above the river bottom land. The hills are forested with second growth softwoods such as poplar, birch, jackpine and spruce.

Access is gained by the old Violet Lake Road, which leaves Highway 560 about five kilometres east of Shining Tree village. The Violet Lake Road is followed easterly for approximately two kilometres to a short branch road constructed by Annett et al which leads onto Claim 1046148 where stripping took place in 2002. Figure No. 2, a claim map of southwestern Macmurchy Township shows the location of the Violet Lake Road and other topography features.

Historical Comments

The Annett Claims are part of the old McIntyre-McDonald claim group in the historic Wasapika section of the West Shining Tree gold area. A number of gold-bearing quartz veins were trenched and pitted on Claim TRS 2565 (now Annett's 1046148) in 1911. A 55 ft. shaft was sunk in the fall of 1912 at the site of Annett's north shaft stripping.

Gold was first discovered in the Shining Tree area in 1911 followed by a flurry of staking and prospecting which resulted in over a hundred recorded occurrences of native gold being found in quartz veins. Many of the occurrences were of a high-grade nature with some spectacular pockets being mined from shallow surface workings. These gold occurrences, however, never resulted in a mine but certainly created some fanciful and ill-advised developments where promoters would utilize the romance of some spectacular gold find to finance the building of a small mill and sink a shaft without the benefit of defining any ore

reserves. Once the money ran out the project died. This has been the history of the Shining Tree camp. Granted the gold values may be erratic and the "nugget-effect" exaggerated, but never in the almost 100 years since gold was first discovered has a meaningful and well funded campaign been carried out to try and develop a meaningful reserve of gold mineralization been mounted.

Some noteworthy past and present properties in the Wasapika area are briefly discussed in the following and are illustrated in Figure No. 3.

(a) Rilmac Gold Mines Limited - located west of the Annett property, it was formed in 1934 by amalgamation of White Rock Mines, Harvey Kirkland Holdings, Atlas and MacVittie Estate to form a block of 6-patented mining claims covering about 300 acres. Development from 1934 to 1937 included sinking the existing shafts from 125 feet to a depth of 425 feet and carrying out lateral work on the Saville vein at the 65, 170 and 410 ft. levels. A small mill (^ 50 tpd) was also erected. Assay results from sampling carried out by Sylvanite Mines in 1940 show a 50' section on the 410 level, which assayed 0.22 ounces/t, gold. Two twenty-ton bulk samples taken from the 65 ft. level returned 0.72 ounces/t Au and 0.59 ounces/t Au respectively. Each sample was derived from the taking down of backs along twenty foot sections of the drift. Channel sampling of the drift back prior to extraction averaged less than 0.1 ounces per ton Au., a prime example of "nugget effect". The bulk of this work has been on the Saville vein a strong northwesterly striking quartz vein structure, which has been traced for over a mile. The extension of this vein projects onto the Annett property.

Also on the Bilmac property the Atlas tunnel was driven into the side hill below a spectacular showing of gold in a quartz vein. Twelve tons of high-grade are reported to have been bagged from this occurrence.

(b) West-Tree Mine - adjoining the Bilmac on the north this property was also known as the Lake Gas well, Canadian Champion Reef and more recently was under the control of New Bedford Explorations and TUT Enterprises. Most of the development took place during the period 1924-1930 which included the sinking of a 520 foot shaft on the extension of the Saville Vein, numerous trenching campaigns on an up to thirty different veins with visible gold, and some diamond drilling. Only sixty feet of lateral work is recorded in the main shaft. During 1936-1937 development work on the 240-foot level reportedly opened up over 300 feet of strongly mineralized vein with "much visible gold" on what is assumed to be the Saville vein. The property came open for staking due to non-payment of taxes in June of 2000 and is now held by private interests.

(c) The Bennett claims - located south and east of Annett's property, gold was discovered in 1912 in a lenticular quartz vein confined to a strong northwest striking shear zone traced for about 400 feet. A one hundred foot shaft was sunk on the structure in 1935 and limited development work was carried out from the shaft bottom. Some spectacular gold has been reported. The property is presently in private hands.

HFOI OCirAT SFTTTNf;

Bedrock in southwestern Macmurchy Township is predominantly steeply dipping Archean age dark green basalts, often pillowed or amygdaloidal, which trend in a northwest- southeast direction. These basalts are interlayered with light greenish intermediate andesites and tuffs. Less common but also part of the layered sequence are felsic flows, which are grey to pink in colour and often porphyritic in texture.

Occasional remnant outliers of Huronian sediments unconformably cap the Archean lithology. Nipissing diabase sills have been noted south of the Wasapika area. North trending diabase dykes are common throughout the Shining Tree area.

Major faulting in the area are late stage events, which appear to offset the stratigraphy up to six kilometres. One of these faults, the Michiwakenda Lake Fault, is located about one kilometer west of the Wasapika area. This structure occupies a marked lineament traceable from Lake Wanapitae in the south to Timmins in the north. Many of the north trending quartz veins in the area appear to parallel this structure though its economic significance is unknown.

Shear zones are a common occurrence in the Wasapika area either paralleling the regional northwest-southeast trend of the country rocks or as tensional fracture zones perpendicular to the trend. The shears are often rusty, crenulated, sericitized, and carbonate-rich and host major quartz veins or quartz lenses and boudins. Pyrite is the most common sulphide in these shears though galena, sphalerite, and chalcopyrite have been noted. Gold is preferentially present in the quartz veining along with tourmaline and rarely galena and sphalerite.

FXPrORATTON 2(102

During June, July and August 2002, Roy Annett and his partners in the venture carried out a program of mechanical stripping, outcrop washing, drilling and blasting trenches, linecutting, geological mapping and sampling on a portion of Claim 1046148. This area, in the southwest section of the claim, contains the historical workings of the McIntyre-McDonald holdings, which date back to 1912. Old shafts, pits and trenches with reported gold occurrences were overgrown as were the access routes. It was therefore decided to embark on the stripping program to uncover the reported gold bearing veins to determine the mode of occurrence of the mineralization, the size and distribution of the veins and the types of alteration accompanying them.

Three areas were stripped and washed over the course of this work and subsequently mapped and sampled. Results are plotted on Map No. l attached to this report. Sample descriptions and assay results are also appended.

A John Deere 31 OD backhoe owned by Robin Lowe, one of the partners, was utilized for the stripping program. A Honda high-pressure pump and an Atlas Copco plugger, also owned by Mr. Lowe, were used to wash the outcrops and drill the hole for the trenches. Messrs. Annett, Salo and Lowe carried out the stripping washing and drilling and blasting portion of the program. Jack Tindale, the writer guided some of the work, mapped the southwestern portion of Claim 1046148 and mapped and sampled the stripped areas. The exploration program is described in the following.

(a) South Shaft Area

An area approximately 60 metres long by 8 to 10 metres wide was stripped and washed along the strike of the old trenching in a northwesterly direction commencing at the original old McIntyre-McDonald shaft. The shaft is reported to be 50 feet deep and was sunk in 1911. The shaft is capped with a concrete slab. The stripping program exposed a strong undulating grey to transparent to white quartz vein varying in width from 25 cm to 50 cm striking in a northeasterly direction and dipping vertically. Black needle-like intergrowths of tourmaline are noted in the vein along with talc lined partings and inclusions of carbonate. Pyrite as cubes and fine dustings is present in the vein and the wallrock. Branching off of the main leader vein are irregular and discontinuous veins and veinlets.

The veining is hosted by a rusty, silicified, dark green, carbonate-rich shear zone varying in width from 3 metres to up to 6 metres. The shear zone has been injected with boudins and lenses of quartz, 1-2 cm wide, along the shear planes. Pyrite is common throughout the zone. Away from the main shear the intensity of alteration lessens, foliation is minor and irregular discontinuous quartz veins and lenses are apparent. Host rock is a dark green basalt. Sub-parallel to the main zone shear is a 10-20 cm wide, very fine grained, diabase dike.

Page 11: HISTORIC MCINTYRE MCDONALD PROPERTY OF

Two trenches were blasted across the main vein and its accompanying shear zone. The more southerly trench is about two metres long, .5m deep by .5 metres wide. The trench exposes rusty sheared, party crenulated, wallrock injected with narrow lenses and stringers of quartz on either side of the main vein, which is about 40 cm wide at this location. Assay values ranged from 0.3 gm/t Au to 6.17 gm/t Au in the wallrock and the vein ran 3.84 gm/t as depicted on the accompanying stripping map.

The northerly trench was a little over 6m long, .5m deep and .5m wide. Most of the trench exposed the rusty shear zone with the main quartz vein being about 30 cm wide at this location. Minor chalcopyrite was noted in the wallrock. Assay values of the vein ran 5.73 gm/t Au across a one-metre chip and 4.39 gm/t Au from a grab of the vein material. Values in the sheared wallrock ranged from 0.53 gm/t Au in chip sample adjacent to the vein to 0.16 gm/t Au away from the vein.

A sample of the vein at the north extremity of the stripping assays 11.25 gm/t Au in chip sample across l metre. The vein continues strong to the north and its trace is indicated by a deep line of trenches for a further 100 metres as noted on our geological mapping.

It is noteworthy that a thorough examination of our samples did not reveal any visible gold in the quartz veins. Either the gold is exceedingly fine-grained or it is tied-up in the pyrite. Assay sheets and detailed sample descriptions are appended to this report.

(b) North Shaft Area

Stripping centered around a 55' shaft sunk in 1912 on a reported gold-rich quartz vein. An area approximately 30 metres long in a north-south direction and 10 metres wide was stripped and the outcropping so exposed was washed by the high-pressure pump. The old muck pile obscured the northerly extension of the main vein.

The shaft was sunk on an irregular grey to translucent white 10 to 20 cm wide quartz vein, which strikes roughly north-northwest, and dips steeply to the west. Pyrite is an obvious accessory mineral in the quartz as cubes and fine-grained dissemination. Minor carbonate inclusions are noted. Talc lined the fractures in the vein and chlorite is common along the vein border. Visible gold as smears and blebs in the quartz is common. Occasional blebs of galena were noted in the vein. A branch off of the main vein just south of the shaft carries much visible gold and swells to 30 cm in places.

The wallrocks adjacent to the main vein are rusty and sheared and carry disseminated pyrite. The shearing is not as well developed as at the south shaft and tends to peter out a meter or so away from the veining. Minor carbonate alteration is present in the wallrock. At the north end of stripping well-developed pillows are noted in the dark green mafic volcanic outcroppings.

Page 12: HISTORIC MCINTYRE MCDONALD PROPERTY OF

-6-

White quartz fragments are strewn throughout the shaft dump and visible gold can easily be found in this material. It is possible the old timers encountered a blowout of quartz while sinking the shaft, which would account for the unusual amount of quartz present.

A three metre long trench was blasted across the quartz vein about three metres south of the shaft. The trench is about .5 metres deep and .5 metres wide. A chip sample of the wallrock over 2m assayed 1.32 gm/t Au and a 1m chip across the vein assayed 6.10 gm/t Au. A 1m chip across the branch vein 2m west of the shaft assayed 96.0 gm/t Au. A selective grab of the quartz vein fragments in the dump assayed 35.93 gm/t gold.

The gold-enriched veining at the North Shaft appears to have limited strike extent. Surface mapping in the area of the stripping failed to pick up any old trenching along the strike of the veins. Further prospecting and stripping to the north may turn up new leads as shearing is evident in an outcrop of mafic volcanics near the northend of the stripping. A plan of the stripping is shown on Map No. l enclosed with this report.

(c) No. 3 Vein Stripping

This stripping is located 40 metres south and west of the North Shaft and exposes a narrow ( 15 cm) grey quartz vein which strikes north of east and dips steeply to the south. The stripping measures 20 metres long (east-west) and 5m wide. A two metre long trench. .5 metres wide and deep, was blasted across the vein exposure.

The quartz vein is hosted by a rusty, carbonate-rich, sheared mafic volcanic with disseminated pyrite common throughout. The vein itself is a grey to translucent quartz vein, which pinches and swells across the outcrop. Minor narrow stringers stringers of quartz branch off of the main vein. Pyrite, chalcopyrite and galena as blebs and fine disseminations are noted in the vein. A grab sample of the vein from the trench assayed 6.10 gm.t Au, 1.5 gm/t Ag, 728 ppm Pb and 961 ppm Zn. No visible gold was noted. A plan of the stripping is shown on Map No. l enclosed with this report

(d) Geological Mapping

The writer mapped the area encompassed by the southwestern portion of Claim 1046148 on August 23, 2002 assisted by Roy Annett. A cut and chained 368 metre long baseline at an Az of 3600 was established by Annett and Larry Salo on August 15, 2002 and this control was used to turn off flagged lines at 50 metre intervals during the mapping.

The geological map at a scale of 1:1000 forms part of Map No. l enclosed with this report. Topographic features such as the access road, the stripping areas, claim lines and posts are presented along with the estimated location of important veins and workings on the adjoining Bilmac Property to the north and west.

The mapped area is underlain by mainly dark green, massive mafic volcanics (basalts).

Page 13: HISTORIC MCINTYRE MCDONALD PROPERTY OF

Pillow structures in this rock type were noted at the North Shaft stripping and on the large outcrop at the north end of the basalts. Some reasonably fresh coarse grain, reddish flecked, gabbro was noted in the easterly portion of lines 50 and 100 north.

The large outcrop along the western claim boundary south of the mouth of West Shining Tree Creek is streaked with a porphyritic reddish coarse-grained felsic volcanic (diorite?). This appears to be part of the same sequence as mapped on the Bilmac zone close to their Main Shaft adjacent to the Saville vein.

Narrow fine-grained north to northwesterly striking diabase dikes were noted along the west boundary and crossing the access road.

Remnants of old trenching are scattered over the mapped area. The most obvious of these is the long, deep excavation, which apparently traces the northeasterly extension of the South Shaft vein.

Quartz veins are fairly common in the mafic volcanics and a number of these were sampled during the course of the mapping. Assay results are appended to the report along with the vein descriptions.

Work by Annett and his partners during the summer of 2002 has confirmed the presence of gold bearing quartz veins at at least three locations on Claim 1046148. At the South Shaft workings a very strong vein systems carries appreciable gold along the entire 60-metre strike exposure. The vein system is open for extension to the north for a further 100 metres along the trace of old deep trenching.

The north shaft workings expose considerable visible gold in quartz veins though the strike length of the veins appear to be limited.

Promising gold values were returned for the No. 3 stripping from relatively narrow quartz structures.

The initial program of stripping has been proven warranted and a continuation of this work along the strike of the South Shaft vein structure is recommended.
