August 12, 2019 Page 3 of 51 Bill McKinney McKinney Property Event 5724829 SUMMARY The nine claim McKinney Property (“Property”) is located within the historic Camp McKinney, 282 kilometres east of Vancouver, 22 kilometres east of Osoyoos, and nine kilometres north of Beaverdell, a settlement on the British Columbia No.3 Crowsnest Highway. The McKinney property is within the historic Camp McKinney Camp which centred on the Cariboo-Amelia mine to which occurrence has been the most significant mineral deposit and mineral producer from Camp McKinney. It was British Columbia's first dividend paying lode gold mine from which 2,538,101 grams of gold, 1,008,979 grams of silver, 51,393 kilograms of lead and 89,875 kilograms of zinc were recovered over its 68 year mine life from 1894 to 1962. The Cariboo-Amelia mineral deposit type is a gold-quartz vein, gold skarn, silica vein (Figure 9) hosted by a complex interlayered succession of metabasalt flows, tuffs and minor marble of the Anarchist Group which have been intruded by granite and granodiorite of the Middle Jurassic Nelson intrusions. The Cariboo/McKinney vein, mined over a strike length of 754 metres, and to a depth of 107 metres in the west section of the No. 4 level and 171 metres in the east sections of the Nos. 5 and 6 levels, has a total surface trace of 1,630 metres long on the Crown Grants and an additional 780 metres east and west. Widths vary from 0.25 up to 3.5 metres and is composed of white quartz and pyrite with lesser sphalerite, galena, chalcopyrite and rare tetrahedrite and pyrrhotite. Visible native gold is locally prominent. The Cariboo-Amelia, and two
