SOUTH BENSO CONCESSION UPDATE
St. Jude has provided following significant results from the first phase
drill program on the South Benso property in Ghana, West Africa. This drill
program was focused on the Subriso East and Subriso West targets, and was
designed to expand on the geochemical, geophysical, trench and drill data
previously collected by Fairstar Explorations Inc.

Geological data from the Subriso West target indicate the presence of a
mineralized body striking approximately northwest with a near vertical dip
ranging from 80 degrees west to 80 degrees east.

* reverse circulation ** diamond drill Azi = Azimuth
Results to date suggest that the Subriso East target hosts a
well-mineralized body striking generally in a north-south direction and
dipping to the west at approximately 60 degrees.
All drill results are being evaluated by geological staff for follow-up
exploration. Assaying of drill samples was conducted and reported by
Transworld Laboratories (Austria) with checks by SGS Laboratories
(Belgium), both from their facilities in Ghana. As per the table above,
some of the reverse circulation drill results were verified by diamond
drilling. Variances are within acceptable limits.
St. Jude is presently conducting a detailed geochemical soil sampling
survey on the South Benso project to establish new exploration and drill
targets. Follow-up drilling has commenced at both the Subriso East and
Subriso West targets.
St. Jude and Fairstar have amended their agreement with respect to the
South Benso concession in order to allow the original licensee to convert
its 7.5-per-cent net profits interest to a 7.5-per-cent shareholding
interest in the Ghanaian joint venture company. Accordingly, St. Jude now
has the right to earn up to an unencumbered 60.125-per-cent interest in the
South Benso property by advancing the project to the feasibility report
stage. St. Jude is presently working with Fairstar to finalize the transfer
of the property to the new joint venture company.
As previously reported, the South Benso concession is contiguous to and
directly north of St. Jude's Hwini-Butre property. Together these two
concessions incorporate approximately 30 contiguous kilometres of the
prevailing strike of the prolific Ashanti gold belt.
