    • Accessing the high grade Bachelor Lake and Hewfran ore (7.38 g/t fully diluted) presently implementing the final phase-
    • sink shaft a further 536ft.(60% complete )
    • level 13 & 14 development already in progress
    • then commence a 15,000m drill campaign from level 15
    • Consolidating/expanding gold resources in and around the Bachelor Lake Mill:
      • Portfolio of properties: 1,601,374 oz of resources (NI 43-101)
      • Potential of a further 1.5M oz in a radius of 100 km of the mill (historical resources not compliant with NI 43-101)
    Commence next phase 2011 Barry drilling campaign to target anomalies (some larger than the existing pit 18Mt - 781,450 oz) and the extensions to substantially increase the existing resources

  • 17. Barry Open Pit-Highlights
    • From 2007 to 2010, with only 20,000m of drilling, resource tonnage increased by 1,240% and contained ounces rose by 336%
    • Mining and exploration at the pit has led to very good understanding of the structure
    • Present resources: 18M tonnes - 781,450 oz with only 50,000m of diamond drilling
    • In perspective, Osisko has conducted an enormous drill campaign of approximately $80M and over 800,000m of diamond drilling to arrive at their resource
    • Barry requires an extensive(1 st phase) drill program over 75,000m to target similar anomalies and extensions to extend the strike length to significantly increase resources . As a result of recent internal discussions, management has decided to investigate the possibility of strategic partners for Barry
    • Increased exploration activity all around the Barry property by Bonterra Resources, Eagle Hill Exploration and Amseco Exploration

  • 19. Longitudinal Barry Deposit
  • 20. Main Zone 43 Zone -100m -300m -400m East Pit Sector Central Zone -200m Barry Gold Deposit Exploration Potential at Depth
  • 21. Investment Overview
    • BACHELOR LAKE/HEWFRAN PROPERTY
      • Develop the higher grade Bachelor underground(sink shaft 536ft- 60% complete)
      • Continue identifying and upgrading the potential gold resources at depth commence 15,000m drill campaign to extend mine life to 7-9 years.
      • Commence production (2012) from Bachelor underground 60,000 oz annual
    • BARRY PROPERTY
      • Expand & Upgrade current gold resources (781,450 oz. at avg.1.3 g/t)
      • Complete IP coverage and continue an extensive drill program
      • Target the large IP anomalies and extensions
    • STRATEGIC ACQUISITION
      • Investigate a potential acquisition of an advanced project near the Bachelor Lake Mine (within a 100 km radius- a potential of 1.5 M oz)
    Emerging Gold Producer + Expand Gold Resources
