ICA/ITF can earn a 50% interest in the SVB-1 property by completing a $100,000 private placement into CWA (333,333 units at $0.30 , each unit consisting of one share and one warrant of CWA); by exercising $50,000 of CWA warrants on or before May 31 1998; by financing an exploration budget and program totalling $100,000 to complete a big loop Time Domain electromagnetic and a magnetic survey on or before, April 30 1998; and expending $500,000 on the SVB-1 property on or before December 31 1999. After completion of the initial geophysical program ICA will be the operator of the SVB-1 property. The SVB-1 property is 7km south of the Donner/Northern Abitibi property where recent drilling returned 1.13% Ni, 0.78% Cu and 0.20% Co over a core length of 15.7 metres. The massive sulphides are hosted by an olivine gabbro which is known to extend onto the northeast part of the SVB-1 property. The PEM survey will ground proof several AEM anomalies associated with the layered intrusive rocks. ICA/ITF agree to amend CWA's right to earn an interest in map staked licence 5446M consisting of 80 claim units (the Can-12 property). Cartaway will earn a 50% interest (reduced from 60%) by spending $2,000,000 on or before December 31 1999 (originally $3,000,000 on or before September 1 1999 with a minimum of $500,000 on or before December 31 1997). CWA will use its best efforts to complete a minimum of 1000 metres of core drilling on the Can-12 property on or before December 31 1998. The Can-12 property occurs in the Puttuaalu Brook area and is 15km north of CWA's Cirque property. CWA drilled one hole in 1997 on a conductor located by a Crone PEM survey. The hole returned 0.50% Ni, 0.58% Cu and 0.11% Co over a core length of 0.85 metres. This massive sulphide interval is part of a flat lying deposit of disseminated to massive sulphides intersected from 112.76 to 120.26 metres. The conductor has been traced over a length of 300 metres and a width of 125 metres and is open to the northeast. There are two other untested PEM conductors on the Can-12 property.
