Liz: "More and more, the fingers are pointing at the Saudi's, which country sounds like a huge mess coming. Iraq, it seems to me, is the lever to unglue the whole tyranny. And, in the name of terrorism!" Not sure I grasp what you are trying to say, but sounds interesting. Could you elaborate. Little joe

SML: Stealth Minerals finds mineralized zones at Wrich Hill Stealth Minerals Ltd SML Shares issued 28,299,560 Oct 7 2002 close $ 0.22 Wednesday October 9 2002 News Release Mr. Bradley Jones reports Stealth Minerals has released an exploration update on its Wrich Hill epithermal gold-silver prospect, which is one of three properties in the company's Toodoggone project that is undergoing systematic large-scale exploration. Excavator trenching on a portion of the Wrich Hill prospect has revealed two steeply dipping subparallel mineralized zones in proximity to the regional Wrich fault. Both mineralized zones remain open along strike to the northwest and southeast. The trenches are oriented northeast, southwest. WEST ZONE Trench Width* Gold Silver (m) (g/t) (g/t) T1 32 1.87 7.0 T2 32 2.04 10.4 T3 24 0.87 6.8 T4 26 0.35 15.6 EAST ZONE Trench Width* Gold Silver (m) (g/t) (g/t) T1 18 0.38 12.7 T2 24 0.67 20.3 T3 20 1.28 10.6 T4 9 0.14 8.1 * Estimated true width The West zone averages 1.36 grams per tonne gold and 9.87 grams per tonne silver, with an average estimated true width of 28.5 metres over a strike length of 170 metres. The East zone, a second subparallel zone, occurs from 10 to 30 metres east of the West one and averages 0.70 gram per tonne gold and 14.1 grams per tonne silver over an estimated true width of nine to 24 metres, also over 170 metres of strike length. Both zones are continuous in all four trenches. Chip samples returned up to 17.33 grams per tonne gold over two metres, and float samples nearby returned up to 81.1 grams per tonne gold, 109.8 grams per tonne silver. Favourable geology, alteration and mineralization is mapped and sampled on surface for a strike length of 850 metres and remains open. A small bulk sample from trench 2 and representative specimens from the area will provide detailed petrographic information. As the mineralized material is oxidized, the company intends to initiate cyanide bottle-roll tests to explore its amenability to heap leaching. In the 2003 field season an initial program of geological mapping and trenching is proposed to address the extension of the silicified zones to the southeast and northwest, the possibility of parallel or conjugate zones, and the relationship between the mineralized zones, the regional Wrich fault and Takla Group-Toodoggone formation contact. Additional prospecting of the entire area is needed to follow up on encouraging soil, stream silt and rock geochemical anomalies returned from current and previous exploration. Management believes that Wrich Hill is an outstanding epithermal gold-silver target and further systematic prospecting followed by diamond drilling is recommended. The company believes that a $1-million program consisting of 20 200-metre drill holes (HQ) would provide initial evidence of a potentially open pit minable deposit and explore the potential for bonanza grade ore at depth. Additional funds ($200,000) should be devoted to a program of intense prospecting in this area. The Wrich Hill prospect is approximately 14 kilometres north of the 48,000 tonnes per day Kemess South mill and five kilometres north of the Kemess North deposit. Acme Analytical Laboratory in Vancouver assayed all reported samples from the Wrich Hill prospect. Sampling and fieldwork were supervised by David Blann, PEng, a qualified person and a director of the company.
