ADZ hra report coffin Adamera Minerals is a company that fashioned itself for the times. The company moved from working on
extremely expensive projects in Canada’s far north to much more reasonable targets in infrastructure rich
NE Washington state. In the process it went from targeting diamond and uranium to gold. Management
has worked hard to make the exploration process as prudent and fiscally efficient as is possible with an
early stage explorer. Five projects have been acquired in and around the Republic Graben area and all of
the projects received work programs last year to set up drill targets for the upcoming season.
ADZ plans to be back out in the field as soon as the snow melts next month. There is still a bit of targeting
work to do but, basically, there are five drill targets in the project set and Adamera plans to hit them all.
One of the cost saving measures being employed by ADZ is the use of a Winkie drill. These are portable
and very cheap but do have the drawback of much smaller core and therefor sample size. Adamera is targeting
high grade epithermal gold in most cases. The Republic Graben is home to several high grade gold
deposits including Kinross Gold’s Buckhorn operation that mines material grading over 10 g/t in a highly
profitable underground operation. Buckhorn is operating at half capacity and has a couple of years of ore
left. Adamera views Kinross as the obvious buyer of a discovery and it probably is. Obviously what we
really want is a discovery large enough to be developed independently but a small discovery, say a few
hundred thousand ounces, would be of interest to Kinross.

REPUBLIC/TORODA GRABEN
AREA NE WASHINGTON
STATE:
Adamera’s project set is
concentrated in NE Washington,
predominantly within or
adjacent to the Republic and
neighboring Toroda grabens.
Grabens are recessed or
down dropped blocks of rock
bordered by steep normal
faults (“graben” is a German
word for “ditch”). They are
formed in extensional terrains
where stretching of the
crust opens parallel faults
which allows the block composing
the graben to slide
down, or the bordering
masses of rock to rise. The
faulting opens up pathways
for later fluid flows that can
deposit gold/silver mineralization
as the faults heal. Eocene
aged (34-56 million
year old) grabens are a
common host terrain for epithermal
gold silver deposits
and Republic is no exception.
The Republic area including
the graben and skarns related
to nearby intrusions has
accounted for over 10 million
ounces of gold production
on both sides of the
Canada/US border. The
flagship for the region is Kinross’s
Republic division
which is mining the Buckhorn
and developing the K2
deposits, shipping ore to its
Kettle River mill
