Bellechasse-Timmins Exploration Update:
There are currently 5 holes at the SGS Labs in Toronto (BD2011-181, 182, and BD2012-183,184, and 185).
There are also 10 holes or approximately 3300 metres of drill core that are in different stages of being logged, cut and prepared for shipping to the lab at our St-Magloire facility. These holes include BD2012-186, 187, 188, 189, 190, 191, 192, 193, 194 and Béland 05).
The drill crew has left the property as the company is taking a small break from drilling to catch up to the data generated to date and focus on processing the core currently outstanding for assaying. The near term plan includes the publication of the company's first resource estimate as well as preparing an extensive Spring 2012 drill campaign at Bellechasse-Timmins and throughout our property in southeastern, Quebec.
Samples were prepared and analyzed at SGS Minerals Services of Toronto, Ontario (Don Mills laboratory). Analysis for gold was done on one half of core samples following FAI525 fire assay routine. SGS introduced standards and blanks in the sequence.
