Duck Test - If TDC sounds like a goose ready to lay a golden egg..........

... then how long until it looks like one ???

... might TDC have to walk like one first ???

... yes, I think so

... when TDC can walk to the bank with gold, then tdc will look like...

Tyhee Development Corp. 11/25/99 - Tyhee Development and Fortune
Minerals Significant Gold Results

TYHEE DEVELOPMENT CORP ("TDC-V;TYHJF-L") FORTUNE MINERALS LTD ("FT-T") -
Tyhee Development and Fortune Minerals Significant Gold Results - From
Recent Diamond Drilling at their Russell Lake VMS Property

Dr. D.R. Webb, President of Tyhee Development Corp. announces that Tyhee
and Fortune Minerals Limited (the "Companies") report that initial
results from four diamond drillholes completed on the Russell Lake
Property (the "Property") have been received and confirm the presence of
a significant gold-rich volcanogenic massive sulphide ("VMS") deposit on
the Property.

The drillholes tested a portion of the Robin Lake Deposit, an Archean
VMS deposit that occurs within a 1,600 meters (5,200 feet) long and 200
metres (650 feet) thick intermediate to felsic volcanic and chert
horizon.

One drillhole tested beneath the IG Zone, a portion of the Robin Lake
Deposit that can be traced for 400 meters along strike north of Hammer
Lake and has previously returned significant gold concentrations (TDC
News Release 3-113, July 12 1999). The IG Zone attains a maximum
thickness on surface of 40 meters. Results include intercepts of 21.7
meters (71 feet) of massive and semi-massive sulphide including
pyrrhotite, pyrite, and arsenopyrite, with minor chalcopyrite and
sphalerite.

Analyses include 19.2 meters (63 feet) of 1.1 gpt (0-032 opt) gold
including 4.6 meters (15.0 feet) of 2.1 gpt (0.061 opt) gold and 1-5
meters (5.0 feet) of 5.1 gpt (0.149 opt) gold. Low base metal values, up
to a maximum of 0.05% copper over 1.3 meters (4.3 feet) were obtained.

Three drillholes tested the EMS Zone of the Robin Deposit south of
Hammer Lake, all of which intersected massive and semi-massive sulphides
(pyrrhotite with minor pyrite, chalcopyrite and sphalerite) over core
lengths of 5.3 to 17.4 meters (17 to 57 feet). Significant gold
mineralization was identified in RL-01, 02, and 03, along with anomalous
copper and zinc. Analyses include 3.9 meters (12.7 feet) of 0.1% zinc
and 0.4 meters (1.2 feet) of 8.2 gpt (0.239 opt) gold in RL-01. RL-02
intersected 3.8 meters (12.5 feet) of 1.6 gpt (0.047 opt) gold, RL-03
intersected 2.1 meters (7.0 feet) of 0.1% zinc, 1.6 meters (5.1 feet) of
0.2% zinc, and 1.0 meters (3.4 feet) of 0.1% copper.

The Property is located 90 km west-northwest of Yellowknife, Northwest
Territories, Canada. It is 60 km north of Highway 3 and 5 km north of
the high voltage power line between the Snare hydroelectric complex and
Yellowknife.

Tyhee can earn a 51% interest in the Project by spending $400,000 prior
to May, 2003, and may either form a joint venture with Fortune after
vesting, or may increase its interest to 60% by incurring an additional
$400,000 by May of 2006. There is an underlying 1% NSR on the Property,
half of which can be purchased for a one-time payment of $500,000
subject to certain conditions.

The Companies are very encouraged by these results which confirm a very
large VMS system with enrichments of copper and zinc, and higher than
average gold concentrations. Tyhee anticipates commencing a second phase
drill program as soon as conditions permit. The purpose of the second
phase drill program will be:

1. to assess the extent of the IG Zone in all directions,

2. to determine if any additional concentrations of copper, zinc or

gold exist elsewhere within the Robin Lake Deposit, and

3. to test additional geophysical targets outside of the Robin Lake

Deposit for other massive sulphide concentrations.

Results will be made available as they are received and verified by the
Companies. TEL: (604) 681-2877
