1. SUMMARY

In October 2010, Mr. Les Kjosness, president of Armadillo Resources Ltd (“Armadillo”), commissioned David F. Reid and William R, Gilmour (the “authors”) of Discovery Consultants (“Discovery”) to undertake an independent review and produce a National Instrument 43-101 Technical Report (“Report”) on the Amazon Basin Gold Property (“Property”) in the states of Amazonas, Mato Grosso and Rondônia, in north-central Brazil. The mineral tenures are owned by Amazônia Capital e Participações Ltda (“Amazônia”).

A Letter of Intent, dated October 18, 2010 sets out the major terms of a purchase agreement between Armadillo and RHAG, in which Armadillo can purchase 99% of Amazonia by the issuance of shares and payment of money to RHAG and the meeting of other requirements. Both parties agree to have a formal agreement in place by October 21, 2010.

The authors are neither associates nor affiliates of Armadillo or Amazônia or any associated company.

The Project comprises 116 processos minerais (exploration licences) totalling 960,267 hectares. These have been grouped into 9 areas (Section 7.2) according to Project name, geographical location and geologic setting. All the processos minerais are beneficially owned 100% by Amazônia. Some processos minerais, registered in other names are reported by Amazônia to be held in trust for Amazônia.

The information reviewed for this Report consists mainly of unpublished data collected by Amazônia, together with published geologic papers, press releases, maps and NI 43-101 reports written on other projects in the immediate area. Key documents used in the technical descriptions and summaries are cited at appropriate places throughout the Report and listed in detail in the References section.

The author Reid has had considerable exploration experience in various gold camps in Canada and has incorporated information from this personal experience into the descriptions regarding general geology and deposit types.

The author Reid visited this area of Brazil during the period January 7 to January 12, 2010. The purpose of the visit included an evaluation of access to the Properties and an evaluation of the geological exploration model by visiting known garimpeiro workings.

This Report incorporates a summary and interpretation of recent limited exploration work on the Property. The exploration potential is described and recommendations and budget for future work are given.

The strategically located mineral tenure holdings of Amazônia are underlain for the most part by Paleoproterozoic units of the Brazilian Craton. Numerous companies including RTZ, Barrack Gold, Eldorado, CVRD and BHP are reported to be active in this area. The Property is relatively close to the new (2007) Apui gold discovery and the prolific Tapajos River Gold District, which is reported to have produced over 20 million ounces of gold. The Eldorado do Juma mining area is located along the banks of the Juma River some 75 km north of the city of Apui.

Minimal exploration programs have been conducted on the Property by Amazônia. Activity to date has been limited to land acquisition, data acquisition including a regional geochemical survey, data compilation on the Property by an outside consultant, combined with limited in-house prospecting, preliminary soil and saprolite sampling. An initial effort has also been made to accurately locate any evidence of garimpeiro mining activities on the Property. Portions of the Theobroma and

Madeirinha concessions have been covered by limited geochemical soil and saprolite sampling surveys.

Most of the Amazônia concessions were acquired to cover known garimpeiro operations. As a result, numerous small, historic workings ranging from prospecting pits to large scale excavations are distributed throughout the Property. In Brazil, many of these garimpeiro operations including Colossus Minerals Inc’s Serra Pelada deposit have transitioned from pits into a significant deposit (Jones and Hall, 2007).

In view of the very favourable geologic setting and proximity to areas of known past production, an aggressive two-phase exploration program is recommended for the Property.

In Phase One, the program would consist of mapping and extensive saprolite/rock, soil and stream sediment sampling to cover all identified anomalies, interpretation of existing reconnaissance airborne geophysical surveys, ground geophysical surveys (VLF and magnetic) with the objective of delineating structures that may control mineralization, and finally extensive trenching. Most activities would focus on areas of garimpeiro mining, areas of extensively altered and mineralized outcrop exposures, geochemical and geophysical anomalies and obvious, newly delineated structures. This phase of the program herein proposed is designed to evaluate specific portions of the Property that appear to be geologically, geophysically, and geochemically favourable for the development of sizeable mineralized zones. This phase would also result in the abandonment of geologically unfavourable properties. The budget proposed for Phase One is C$ 1,860,000.

Contingent on the results of Phase One, the exploration program will enter into Phase Two, involving additional mapping and sampling, trenching and 6,000 metres of diamond drilling. The exact positioning of drill holes is to be determined by incorporating geological, geochemical and geophysical results. A budget of C$ 2,230,000 is proposed for Phase Two.

In summary, the completion of the two-phase exploration program herein proposed will require a budget of C$ 4,090,000.

Note that the proposed budgets do not include the annual fees (Taxa Anual por Hectares) payable to maintain exploration licences.

In this report, all measurements units are metric except for a few instances where gold is reported in troy ounces.

Monetary units are expressed in C$ (Canadian dollars), US$ (US dollars) and R$. The currency used in Brazil is the real (R$) with the exchange rate as the date of this Report being C$ 1.00 equal to about R$ 1.65.

2. INTRODUCTION

In October 2010, Mr. Les Kjosness, president of Armadillo Resources Ltd (“Armadillo”), commissioned David F. Reid (“Reid”) and William R, Gilmour (“Gilmour”), the “authors”, of Discovery Consultants (“Discovery”) to undertake an independent review and produce a National Instrument 43-101 Technical Report (the “Report”) on the Amazon Basin Gold Property (the “Property”) in the states of Amazonas, Mato Grosso and Rondônia, in north-central Brazil (Figure 1). The mineral tenures are owned by Amazônia Capital e Participações Ltda (“Amazônia”).

The report is written to meet the requirements of Policy 5.3 of the TSX Venture Exchange as the agreement described in Section 4.2 is a Reviewable Transaction as the acquisition of Amazonia by Armadillo is a Fundamental Acquisition.

A Letter of Intent, dated October 18, 2010 sets out the major terms of a purchase agreement between Armadillo and RHAG, in which Armadillo can purchase 99% of Amazonia by the issuance of shares and payment of money to RHAG and the meeting of other requirements. Both parties agree to have a formal agreement in place by October 21, 2010.

The authors are neither associates nor affiliates of Armadillo or Amazônia or any associated company.

The Property comprises 116 granted exploration licences (processos minerais) totalling 960,267 hectares (“ha”) located in nine target areas, each one of which is defined as a specific Project (e.g., Manicore Project) in this Report. In this Report, these various areas are called Projects, in keeping with a recent Property compilation (Tobias da Silva, 2009).

The scope of the Report includes a description of the general setting and history of the Property; a review of the mineral tenure; an examination and review of historical exploration work; an examination and review of exploration conducted to date by Amazônia; and finally interpretations and conclusions of the results obtained. The Report concludes with recommendations and budgeting for further exploration programs.

The author Reid visited this area of Brazil during the period January 7 to January 12, 2010. The purpose of the visit included an evaluation of access to the Properties and an evaluation of the geological exploration model by visiting known garimpeiro workings. A garimpeiro is a nomadic gold prospector/miner, many of whom have been credited with making important gold discoveries in South America. A proposed trip to Eldorado do Juma on January 11, 2010 had to be cancelled due to torrential rain and impassable roads

The author Reid’s observations combined with his knowledge of similar gold deposits in Canada confirms the good exploration potential of the Property. The Report is also based on the authors’ review of field work by Amazônia, along with an evaluation of results and a compilation of published and unpublished data, maps, and reports as referenced. All interpretations and conclusions are based on the authors’ research and the field confirmation of a reasonable geological exploration model, the later of which is most important as previous exploration by Amazônia is minimal due to the company being principally involved in land acquisition. No mineral exploration has been carried out by Armadillo or by Amazônia since its acquisition by Armadillo.

Additionally, this Report incorporates verbal communications of Fabio Mackievicz and Odair Cordeiro, Amazônia employees, both of whom have considerable practical experience on the Property, as well as conversations with a local concession owner.

In Brazil an exploration licence is called a processo minerais. Within the context of this Report the terms concession, mineral tenure, tenure, exploration licence, and processo minerais are used interchangeably. Currency units are given in Canadian dollars (C$), US dollars (US$) and Brazilian reais (R$).

An important access point to portions of the Property is the Apui Airport located at latitude 7° 10' 27" south and longitude 59° 50' 20" west. The corresponding UTM coordinates (WGS 84) are 0186414 W and 9206012 S.

4.2 Property Description

In a Letter of Intent (“LOI”), dated October 18, Rusheen Handels AG (“RHAG”), a Swiss company, has granted Armadillo the right to acquire 99% of Amazônia Capital e Participações Ltda. (“Amazônia”), a Brazilian company, from RHAG. Amazônia is engaged in the exploration for gold, copper and diamonds in Brazil.

Under the terms of the LOI, a formal agreement (“Agreement”) between RHAG and Armadillo, replacing the terms of the LOI, shall be executed by October 21, 2010.

Under the terms of the LOI, Armadillo has purchased 49.5% (990,000 units) of Amazônia by:

• The issuance of 12,500,000 treasury shares of Armadillo to RHAG • The payment of $350,000 by Armadillo to RHAG • The issuance of 750,000 treasury shares of Armadillo for a Finder’s Fee

RHAG has granted an option to Armadillo to purchase an additional 49.5% (990,000 units) of Amazônia, for a total of 99%, for a period of three months from the date of the Agreement under the following terms:

• The issuance of 12,500,000 treasury shares of Armadillo to RHAG • The issuance of 750,000 treasury shares of Armadillo for a Finder’s Fee

Under the LOI, RHAG retains a 2.5% net smelter return (NSR) on all metals and a 2.5% profit interest on diamonds and all non-smelter products.

In June 2010, previous to the Agreement, RHAG had entered into an agreement to sell Amazônia to Brazil Gold Corp (“BRZG”), an American company. In September, 2010 this agreement was rescinded. However, the LOI states that as a result of the former agreement, Amazônia is indebted to BRZG in the amount of US$ 1,700,000. Furthermore, the LOI states that this debt will be paid by Armadillo by the conversion of a two-year promissory note into Armadillo shares.

The Property comprises 116 processos minerais totalling 960,267 ha. These mineral tenures have been grouped into the nine Projects (Section 7.2) according to geographical location and geologic setting.

4.3 Brazilian Mining Code & Permitting

Brazil has one of the ten largest economies in the world and is South America’s largest country in population and area. It is a constitutional democracy with a strong national policy encouraging foreign investment. It ranks as one of the world’s leading jurisdictions for mining investment owing to an advanced infrastructure, a large pool of skilled technical and professional personnel and, most importantly, has an established Mining Code which clearly defines the mining rights guaranteed by the Federal Constitution of Brazil (Klohn and Broili, 2008).

A summary of Brazilian mining laws quoted directly from Klohn and Broili, 2008 is reported below.

4.3.1 Exploration and Mining Concessions

“Prospecting and mining of mineral resources in Brazil may be carried out by Brazilians or by companies duly incorporated in Brazil, which hold a licence or concession granted by the Departamento National de Produção Mineral (“DNPM”), the Federal agency responsible for controlling and enforcing the Brazilian Mining Code” (Klohn and Broili, 2008).

“Exploration and mining concessions granted by the government consist of Applications for Exploration Licenses, Exploration Licenses or Mining Concessions as described below. Each concession area is normally limited to a maximum of 2,000 hectares, but up to 10,000 hectares are allowed for licenses or concessions in some difficult areas in the Amazon region. There is no limit on the number of licenses or concessions that may be granted or held by any given individual or company” (Klohn and Broili, 2008).

Application for Exploration Licenses [processos minerais]: “Applications must be supported by a location map, exploration plan, and motivation report and must comply with other requirements. Applications are sequentially numbered and dated on filing with the DNPM. Exploration Licenses are normally granted on a priority of application basis provided all requirements are met and the area of interest is not already covered by a pre-existing application or concession” (Klohn and Broili, 2008).

This process may now be modified as it appears that an application can now be done online and there is no waiting period.

Exploration Licenses: “The granting of an exploration license by the DNPM guarantees exclusive exploration rights in the concession area to the holder for up to 3 years but can be renewed for a further period under certain conditions. Exploration must begin within 60 days of the issuance of the licence and work must not be interrupted for more than 3 consecutive months or 120 non-consecutive days. A report must be submitted annually to the DNPM on the exploration work and expenditures made on the concessions. Exploration Licenses can be transferred” (Klohn and Broili, 2008).”

Mining Concessions: “An application for a Mining Concession by the holder of an approved Exploration License must be addressed to the Brazilian Mining Ministry and be supported by plans for economic development, mining and processing, together with proof of sufficient financial support to develop the operation. A Mining Concession is not granted unless a license is issued by the environmental authority, which is an entity separate from the DNPM. In most cases this requires an environmental impact assessment, an environmental protection and re-vegetation plan and possible public hearings. Mining Concessions are not limited in time and remain valid until full depletion of the mineral deposit. Mining Concessions can be transferred between parties qualified to hold them and can be sold or leased subject to approval of the appropriate governmental authority.”

No significant fees or other payments are required to be paid in connection with the

issuance of an Exploration License, an Application for an Exploration License or Mining Concession, or a Mining Concession itself. However, surface owners must be compensated for the disturbance of their activities and other damage caused by the exploration and mining works” (Klohn and Broili, 2008).

4.3.2 Maintenance of Mineral Tenure Rights

Additionally, the owners of mining concessions have the obligation to: execute the work in a manner as proscribed by the Brazilian Mining Law; pay mining levies and surface taxes; strictly follow all the legislation related to mine safety and environmental remediation; preserve all those surface and underground workings created as a result of the mining operation in a safe condition; and provide technical reports on the progress of the work. In the event of a cancellation of the mining right, the owner has the obligation to provide a final geological and mining report.

The annual fee for maintaining a processo minerais for the first three years is R$ 1.90/ha (approximately $C 1.15/ha at the date of this Report). In order to maintain the 960,267 ha owned by Amazonia for another year, a fee of approximately C$ 1,104,000 will need to be paid. This is called the Taxa Anual por Hectare (TAH).

4.3.3 Environmental Regulations

“General environmental rules and obligations are relatively similar to those applicable in Canada. The Brazilian Environmental Policy is the responsibility of the Ministry of the Environment and is executed at three levels: federal, state and municipal.

Environmental licenses required for all mining activities are managed at the federal level. The environmental legislation applied to mining is basically consolidated into the following environmental requirements: a) environmental impact study, b) environmental licensing and c) plan for recovery of degraded areas. An environmental impact study applies to mining projects of any substance. Environmental licensing is mandatory for installing, expanding and operating any mining activity under the systems of mining concessions or licensing. A plan for the recovery of degraded areas requires suitable technical solutions to rehabilitate the soil and other aspects of the environment that might be degraded by mining operations. In recognition that an environmental impact study can represent a substantial financial burden for smaller projects, a company can undertake a less detailed form of environmental impact study called “Environmental Diagnostic Report”. This report is submitted to the Environmental State Control, which has the authority to wave a full environmental study” (Jones and Hall, 2008).

4.3.4 Environmental Liabilities relating to the Amazônia Property

While there has been minor historical garimpeiro mining scattered about the Property, the extent of the small scale mine workings are often limited in size. Surface disturbance is usually confined to an area immediately surrounding the working pits.

The authors are not aware of any environmental issues specific to the Property pertaining to previous work.

4.4 Surface Rights

“In Brazil, surface rights are distinct from mining rights and must be acquired separately. The land owner has no title to the sub-soil or minerals contained therein. The mining code provides for the leasing, acquisition and some form of expropriation of privately held surface rights subject to fair compensation. The holder of a mineral right is entitled to use the surface to conduct mining operations, including the construction of facilities required for such operations. The access to the land and reclamation of disturbed areas must be negotiated with individual surface right holders. However, the landowners are obligated by law to provide access to the mineral license holder in order to conduct exploration. If an agreement cannot be reached by negotiation there are legal mechanisms in place to allow courts to dictate an arrangement” (Jones and Hall, 2008).

4.5 Royalties

“Certain royalties are levied on mineral production in Brazil in accordance with Federal law. The current statutory royalty imposed by the federal government on gold properties is 1% of sales proceeds less sales tax, transportation and insurance costs. The government royalty is divided between the municipality (65%), the state (23%) and the federal government (12%). In addition to the government royalty, a royalty must be paid to the landowner if the surface rights do not belong to the mining titleholder. This landowner amount is equal to one-half the government royalty, which in the case of gold would amount to an additional 0.5%” (Klohn and Broili, 2008).

5. ACCESS, CLIMATE, PHYSIOGRAPHY, LOCAL RESOURCES AND INFRASTRUCTURE

5.1 Access

The city of Manaus is the nearest major city to the Property with an international airport. From Manaus, the Property can be accessed by road following routes BR 319 and 220 as follows (Figure 1):

• City of Manaus to Fumaita, 600 km, southbound Highway BR 319,

• City of Fumaita to Apui, 350 km, eastbound Transamazonica Hwy, BR 220.

The village of Apui has a paved all weather airstrip and is serviced by Apui Taxi Aero Ltda. Flights from Manaus via a twin engine turbo prop are scheduled, depending on weather, every Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday and take about 1 hour and 45 minutes. Luggage space is minimal and excess baggage fees are exorbitant. Traffic volume is high so a two day wait is common. Reservations can be made at the Aero Taxi Office at the Aeroporto Internacional Eduardo Gomes TPSII in Manaus (92- 3652-1440).

Apui has several small hotels and a number of good restaurants. As it is relatively isolated Apui has numerous small stores and shops which cater to the local ranching and mining communities.

Access to the Property is accomplished using a complex system of second to third order gravel roads occasionally branching off the Transamazonica Highway. More remote portions of the Property are accessed using local river transportation, usually dugout canoes.

5.2 Climate

Located only 6° south of the equator, the climate on the Property is typically equatorial with little variation in mean monthly temperatures throughout the year. The area has two seasons: a dry winter and a rainy summer, with the main period of rains occurring between November through March. Annual rainfall for the last several years has averaged about 1,000 mm with temperatures ranging from 17°C to 30°C. Humidity is high. These temperatures are occasionally moderated by winds blowing in from the Andes Mountains.

The prevailing vegetation is overgrown, tropical, slash and burn savannas consisting of dense jungle patches interspersed with open grassy fields. The area supports only limited agriculture, mainly subsistence cattle grazing.

5.3 Physiography

The Property is located mainly along the southern edge of the Amazon Basin, with elevations ranging from 75 to 375 metres above sea level. The area consists of gently rolling hills dissected by occasional steep valleys and ravines. Two of the garimpeiro operations visited by the author are located in moderately steep ravines where the drainages had cut into the underlying craton units. Much of the jungle on the flat terrain in the vicinity of Apui has been cut, burned and planted with grass. Ravines and hills are usually left as dense stands of jungle (Photo 3).

Photo 3: Typical rolling terrain near Apui

Most of the old growth jungle in the flatter terrain has been logged. The trees are commercially valuable for lumber and continue to support a local logging industry. The area is transected by several very large rivers which drain north into the Amazon Basin. Most lowlands are very wet. When remote pastures are abandoned they are quickly reclaimed by the jungle.

5.4 Local Resources and Infrastructure

The Property is located in the north-central portion of Brazil between the Tapajos River on the east and the Marteira River to the west, in a region of extensive mining, logging and ranching operations. Skilled labour, professional services and supplies are readily available in the region for all aspects of mineral exploration and mining.

The Manicore, Aripuana and Curauai Projects lie along main Transamazonica Highway (BR 230) between the cities of Fumaita and Jacareacanga. A power line follows BR 230 out of Apui into the country side for a considerable distance. It is reported that during dry seasons surface water almost disappears from more permanent creeks. However, the presence of surficial water during the winter season, combined with numerous aquifers, would be sufficient to supply water for exploration and mining operations. Numerous houses are located near the various properties and if rented could be used as base camps in the initial stages of the exploration programs.

Further to the south the Madeirinha, Juruena, Matupa, Jatoba, Theobroma and Cacoal Projects are all located near villages where suitable accommodations could probably be rented.

6. HISTORY

The northern tier of the Property lies within the western extension of the Tapajos River Gold Belt, or immediately west of this historic region. The first documented gold discovery in the Tapajos District was in 1747. The area has undergone numerous episodes of intense exploration, mainly by hordes of garimpeiros.

Gold output peaked during the years 1983-89 when more than 300,000 garimpeiros produced approximately 1 million ounces per year, predominantly from alluvial deposits. During the 1970s and 1980s the region produced between 30 and 40% of Brazil’s total annual gold output. Gold production of the Tapajos Mineral Province up to 1993 is officially estimated at 7 million ounces. Actual production is considered to be approximately 22 million ounces; however some estimates put the number closer to 30 million ounces (West, 2009).

Today with modern gold exploration just getting underway in the Tapajos Gold District, some 80,000 garimpeiros are reported to be working in the area’s gold rich streams producing a reported 200,000 to 300,000 ounces of gold annually. Technical information including maps or information related to production rates or grades for deposits in the District is not available.

In 2007, gold was discovered 75 km north of the city of Apui at the Eldorado do Juma site along the banks of the Juma River. Production at this site is estimated at 50,000 ounces of gold, however exact figures are not known.

The population of the city of Apui, located in the State of Amazonas, has exploded as some 6,000 Brazilians moved into this small town of 20,000 people (Phillips, 2007). Facilities are understandably stretched to the limit.

Modern exploration is moving into the area. Very often new exploration and drilling activities are localized directly over the zones of pre-existing, large placer pits which have been hand dug or hydraulically excavated by the garimpeiros.

There is no information available regarding historical mineral resources and mineral reserve

7. GEOLOGICAL SETTING

7.1 Regional Geology

The Brazilian Shield extends over much of South America east of the Andes. The major tectonic units of the shield are the Mesoproterozoic Amazon, São Francisco and the Rio de la Plata Cratons, surrounded by Neoproterozoic orogenic belts. There are many smaller cratonic fragments such as the São Luis Craton. Archean rocks occur as small cratonic nuclei in northeastern Brazil. The cratons contain voluminous 2,600 to 3,000 Ma granitic and greenstone belts and a large volume of Paleoproterozoic rocks. The Neoproterozoic orogenic belts are dominantly derived from the reworking of older Archean crust but also include Mesoproterozoic sediments and volcanogenic sediments. Major orogenic activity ceased in the Cambrian Period. Deformation of the Shield in the Phanerozoic is limited to re-activation of older sub-vertical shears.

The Amazon Craton is the largest preserved block in the Brazilian Shield. Deformation is concentrated along the Neoproterozoic Araguaia orogenic belt on the eastern flank of the south Amazon Craton (Jones and Hall, 2007).

The Property principally lies along the western terminus of the Archean Amazon Craton basement block, while a smaller portion extends south into the contact area between the Amazon Craton and the Xingu Platform. As such, a portion of the Property lies within the western extension of the Tapajos River gold belt or just west of this historic region. Numerous small, historic, garimpeiro workings ranging from prospecting pits to larger-scale excavations are distributed throughout the Property. Many garimpeiro operations including Colossus Minerals’ Serra Pelada deposit have transitioned from pits into large significant deposits. The prolific Tapajos River Gold District is reported to have produced over 20 million ounces of gold and several operations including that of Colossus Minerals are currently in or near production.

The Property is generally focused on outcrops of the Iriri Group and Colíder Group, a complex Paleoproterozoic greenstone package consisting of andesites, basalts, various tuffaceous units, pyroclastic breccias, siliclastic sediments and felsic volcanic units including rhyolites and rhyodacites. Published information indicates that the Colíder has more of an intrusion component and may be up to 200 Ma younger than parts of the Iriri. However, on the geology maps the Iriri Group and the Colíder Group are not subdivided, and therefore in this Report they are called the Iriri/Colíder Group.

Deep seated structural preparation is necessary for the deposition of craton-style gold mineralization. Several dominant structural trends are evident on the Property. The most dominant of these trends have orientations of azimuth (az) of 017°, az 040°, az 065° and az 305°.

The general geology that encompasses the Property is shown on Figure 2.

7.2 Property Geology

The exploration concessions, modified from a previous compilation (Tobias da Silva, 2009a), has grouped the concessions into 11 target areas, called Projects, according to their geologic positions and geological context. The Projects as named are:

This compilation comprised a set of maps at a variety of scales on the various Projects. The authors reviewed these compilations and in order to maintain continuity has kept the original groupings and names.

The Project areas acquired or applied for by Amazônia are generally focused on outcrops of the Iriri/Colíder Group, a complex Paleoproterozoic greenstone package consisting of andesites, basalts, various tuffaceous units, pyroclastic breccias, siliciclastic sediments and the more felsic volcanic units including rhyolites and rhyodacites. The Iriri/Colíder Group is known to host significant gold mineralization and is characterized by a distinct magnetic structure as a result of its high magnetite concentrations.

Descriptions of map units/rock types associated with the various formations, groups and intrusive suites are presented in the legends of the Project maps (Figures 3 to 18). Tobias da Silva references the source of any of these maps as CPRM, 2005 and DNPM, 2008.

Descriptions of the various Projects follow:

7.2.1 Manicore Project

In total, nine processos minerais encompassing 84,070 ha have been acquired in this area located 450 km south-southwest of Manaus and 180 km due west of Apui. These mineral tenures follow a series of outcrops of the Paleoproterozoic Iriri/Colíder Group that trend in a northerly direction for approximately 75 km (Tobias da Silva, 2009b). In the southern portion of the Project area, the Iriri/Colíder Group is in fault contact with the Mesoproterozoic Serra de Providência Intrusive Suite consisting of gabbro, monzogranite and syenogranite. To the north, the Iriri/Colíder Group has been intruded by this same unit. The Iriri/Colíder Group is overlain by sediments of the Neoproterozoic Palmeiral Formation.

For decades, the placer-like alluvial mineralization has been the main objective of the garimpeiro mining activity along the Manicore River, which flows northerly just east of the Project area (Tobias da Silva, 2008b) and (Abram, M. B. et al, 1995). Garimpeiro gold areas are reported on the Project. Figure 3 shows the mineral tenure, geology and garimpeiro sites.

7.2.2 Aripuana Project

One processo minerais of 8,280 ha has been acquired 45 km northeast of the Manicore Project and 50 km northwest of the city of Apui (Tobias da Silva, 2009c). An outlier of the Iriri/Colíder Group is partially covered by the mineral tenure. Figure 4 shows the mineral tenure and geology.

7.2.3 Curauai Project – Block 1

In total, seven processos minerais encompassing 68,689 ha have been acquired 90 km east-northeast of the city of Apui (Tobias da Silva, 2009d). The tenures cover a large area underlain by quartz sandstone of the Igarapé Ipixuna Formation. The exploration targets in this area are Iriri-Colíder Group rocks that may occur beneath the sandstone cover rocks.

An example of the exploration target is at the Garimpo São Francisco, 50 km to the southwest. At this location the garimpeiros are hydraulic mining an east-west trending, structurally controlled shear zone that they reported to be up to six metres wide. The shear zone at this site was hosted by massive, pinkish-grey, porphyritic granite. The garimpeiros were only processing the fine-grained, free gold and were making no attempt to save the pyritic, shear zone material and the limonitic boxwork material that were continually dropping out of their sluice. Photo 5 shows this hydraulic operation.

7.2.4 Curauai Project – Block 2

In total, 18 mineral tenures encompassing 177,224 ha have been acquired 210 km northeast of the city of Apui (Tobias da Silva, 2009d). The two central blocks cover a complex mix of units including the Paleoproterozoic Parauari Intrusive Suite consisting of monzodiorites, granodiorites and other intrusive phases, which is overlain by sedimentary and minor volcanic rocks of the Paleoproterozoic Buiucu Formation, Paleozoic Igarape Ipixuna Formation and the Mesozoic Soil Alteration Formation.

Two garimpeiro gold sites are known in this area (CPRM, 2005). This area may represent the western extension of the Tapajos gold district (CPRM, 2005), which has produced over 20 million oz of gold and is still in production.

Figure 6 shows the mineral tenure, geology and the garimpeiro sites.

7.2.5 Madeirinha Project

In total, five processos minerais encompassing 48,566 ha have been acquired 240 km southwest of the city of Apui (Tobias da Silva, 2009e). The mineral tenures are all located within a large area mapped as the Paleoproterozoic São Romao Intrusive Suite described as consisting mainly of metagranodiorite, metamonzogranite and metasyenogranite (Tobias da Silva, 2009).

One garimpeiro site is known on processo minerais 866994 (CPRM, 2005). Garimpeiro tin mining activity is known, immediately to the north of 866637 and 866996.

Figure 7 shows the mineral tenure, geology and the garimpeiro sites.

7.2.6 Juruena Project

In total, nine processos minerais encompassing 61,471 ha have been acquired 240 km southeast of the city of Apui (Tobias da Silva, 2009f). The mineral tenures occur over a 130 km generally east- west direction, generally covering the east-west trending contact between the Iriri/Colíder Group and the São Romao Intrusive Suite consisting of metadiorites and metamonzogranite. One garimpeiro site is shown on processo minerais 866442 (CPRM, 2005). This site, Garimpo Juruena, represents the northwest terminus of three apparently east-southeast trending deposits (az 285°) including the Garimpo Juruena, the Clareira Nova Astro and the Garimpo Nova Astro. Gold mineralization is associated with a system of branched and discontinuous quartz veins hosted by fractures having an orientation of az 020° and dipping 65° to 70° E. The veins of quartz range in width from 10 cm to 1.0 m. Gold is associated with pyrite, chalcopyrite, covellite, galena, tetrahedrite and bornite. Grades were reported to be about 50 g/t gold (Tobias da Silva, 2008).

Figure 8 shows the mineral tenure, geology and the garimpeiro sites.

7.2.7 Matupa Project - Block 1

In total, five processos minerais encompassing 22,591 ha have been acquired 550 km east-southeast of the city of Apui and 105 km east of the small airstrip town of (Tobias da Silva, 2009g). The four westernmost, east-west trending processos minerais are underlain by the Iriri/Colíder Group and the Paleoproterozoic Juruena Intrusive Suite consisting of granodiorite, monzogranite, monzonite and quartz monzonite. The eastern processo minerais is almost entirely hosted by the Paleoproterozoic Flor de Serra Intrusive Suite, include gabbro, diorite and monzogabbro.

From the most eastern tenure and extending southeast for 25 km is an area of past extensive garimpeiro mining. These include the following eight gold occurrences: Filao do Naiuram, Filao do Geraldo, Filao do Orlando, Colider I and II, Garimpo Veio, Garimpo Domingos and Filao do Sebastiaos. In addition, approximately 19 km to the south is another area of gold mining (nine garimpeiro sites), called the Region of Garimpo Piexoto de Azevedo (Tobias da Silva, 2008). It has been reported by the CPRM that during the period 1980 to 2000 this region produced some 52,309 kg gold. At Garimpo Paraiba, the main vein ranges from 0.18 m to 1.4 m in width and its length is estimated at 1,500 m. Gold is associated with quartz, pyrite, chalcopyrite, pyrrhotite, chalcocite, bornite, galena, tetrahedrite, molybdenite, bismuth and magnetite (Tobias da Silva, 2008). At the Garimpo Serrinha located in the same area gold mineralization was associated with intensely altered granitic porphyry.

Figure 9 shows the mineral tenure, geology and the garimpeiro sites.

7.2.8 Matupa Project - Block 2

In total, 14 mineral tenures encompassing 118,773 ha have been acquired northeast of the Matupa Project - Block 1 approximately 550 km east-southeast of the city of Apui (Tobias da Silva, 2009g). The tenures cover a large area of the Iriri/Colíder Group and in places the Paleoprotorozoic Teles Pires Granite. No garimpeiro sites are known to exist in this Project area.

Figure 10 shows the mineral tenure and geology.

7.2.9 Matupa Project - Block 3

In total, 10 mineral tenures encompassing 99,469 ha have been acquired north of the Matupa Project - Block 2 approximately 600 km east-southeast of the city of Apui (Tobias da Silva, 2009g). The two groups of tenures cover a large area of the Iriri/Colíder Group in contact with the Teles Pires Granite. No garimpeiro sites are known to exist in this Project area.

Figure 11 shows the mineral tenure and geology.

7.2.11 Jatoba Project

In total, three processos minerais encompassing 18,222 ha have been acquired 300 km northeast of the city of Cuiaba, in the most southeast portion of the Property (Tobias da Silva, 2009h).The north- western processo minerais 866604 is a 42 km long, narrow tenure straddling the alluvium filled drainage system of Rio Jatoba. The exploration target at this location is either placer gold or diamonds. The other two mineral tenures occur in the southern portion of the Project area and are underlain by sedimentary rocks of the Neoproterozoic Formation.

A garimpeiro site occurs near processo minerais 866605 in the southernmost portion of the Project area (CPRM, 2005). This small scale mining may represent diamond activity as several possible kimberlite intrusions and chimneys are indicated (Tobias da Silva, 2009). At this time the significance of these occurrences is unknown.

Figure 13 shows the mineral tenure and geology..

7.2.12 Cacoal Project

In total, seven widely scattered processos minerais encompassing 39,963 ha have been acquired 400 km due south of the city of Apui (Tobias da Silva, 2009i). The tenures are shown as being acquired for either diamond or tin. In the western portion of the Project area, sedimentary rocks of the Paleozoic Pimenta Buena and Rio Rolim de Moura Formations underlie the tenures. In the eastern portion of the Project area two mineral tenures are underlain by the Mesoproterozoic Rio Pardo Intrusive Suite consisting of aplite, monzogranite, pegmatite and quartz monzonite.

Four garimpeiro sites including Ribeiro (tin) and Setor Riochuelo (tin) occur in the western portion of this Project area in the immediate vicinity of the five western tenures (CPRM, 2005).

According to a more detailed map of the Project area by Tobias da Silva, 2008, a tin geochemical anomaly occurs in the eastern portion of the concessions with 13 samples having values in excess of 40 ppm Sn (Tobias da Silva, 2008). In addition, five copper/nickel garimpeiro sites in the Espigao D’Oeste Group also occur in this eastern area.

Figure 14 shows the mineral tenure, geology and the garimpeiro sites.

7.2.13 Theobroma Project - Block 1

In total, eight processos minerais encompassing 56,368 ha have been acquired 390 km southwest of the city of Apui and near the airstrip city of Ji-Parana (Tobias da Silva, 2009j). The larger block of six mineral tenures occurs around the town of Theobroma. These tenures are underlain by the Paleoproterozoic Jamari Metamorphic Complex, comprising amphibolite, migmatite, orthogneiss, granodiorite and tonalite and intruded by the Mesoproterozoic Serra da Providência Intrusive Suite. These rocks have been overlain by the Mesoproterozoic Nova Brasilândia metavolcanic sequence and the Paleozoic Pimenta Bueno Formation. Two isolated tenures occur to the west, underlain by rocks of the Paleoproterozoic Jamari Complex, comprising gneissic rocks of igneous origin,

Two abandoned garimpeiro gold mining sites are present in this project area (CPRM, 2005 and Tobias da Silva, 2009). The sites, Igarape Jenipapo in the north and Theobroma in the south are underlain by the Proterozoic Nova Brasilandia metavolcanic sequence. It has been reported (personal communication, J. Young) that this region produced some 76,000 oz gold from these two garimpeiro sites. An additional 12 smaller garimpeiro sites occur around the two main sites.

Figure 15 shows the mineral tenure, geology and the garimpeiro sites.

7.2.14 Theobroma Project - Block 2

In total, three processos minerais encompassing 13,032 ha are situated southwest of the Theobrama- Block-1 area and are underlain by rocks of the Paleoproterozoic Jamari Complex, comprising gneissic rocks of igneous origin. The gneissic rocks are overlain by Paleozoic sedimentary rocks of the Pimento Bueno Formation.

A garimpeiro site, Igarape Arapapa occurs on tenure 886465 and has been worked for gold. Figure 16 shows the mineral tenure and geology.

7.3 Structure

Gold deposits in greenstone terrains, most commonly Achaean in age, are typically associated with regional shear zones and fault splays that cut the greenstone sequences. Several dominant structural trends are evident near and on the Property (DNPM, 1981). Most dominant of these trends are the azimuth 017°, az 040°, az 065° and az 305° orientations.

Numerous mines and mineral showings near and on the Property are focused along these dominant structural trends. The Red Dragon and the Agua Blanca veins reflect the 040° orientation, while the Ouro Roxo North Zone of Amerix and the Crepori Project of Brazauro are focused on the 017° to north-south trends. On the Property, Garimpo Juruena has a strong north-south to north-northeast trend.

Usually, gold mineralization is associated with pyrite, arsenopyrite, chalcopyrite, covellite, bornite and galena. Wall rocks generally exhibit intense hydrothermal alteration.

In contrast, Colossus Minerals’ Serra Pelada deposit lies within a broad braided zone of steeply dipping, east-west trending, ductile shearing known as the Itacaiunas Shear Zone, which produced linked systems of strike-slip and thrust dominated shears. This regional east-west trending, steeply dipping fault zone shows evidence of multiple episodes of movement since around 2,300 MA (Jones and Hall, 2007).

The author Reid visited two garimpeiro sites to evaluate the regional mineral potential in the Iriri- Colíder Group. Tres Estados site appears to be related to a strong east-west trending structural control while the Garimpo São Francisco mineralization appears to be hosted by a north-south trending shear zone.

8.0 DEPOSIT TYPES

The priority exploration targets on the Property are gold mineralization associated with a sheared and deformed Achaean to Proterozoic age greenstone belt sequence comprised of metamorphosed volcanic/sedimentary rock units intruded by slightly younger post-tectonic bodies. At least two styles of primary bedrock gold mineralization may be identified on the Property:

a) Disseminated gold mineralization associated with zones of hydrothermal alteration related to shear zones that cut the greenstone sequence, and

b) Veinlet-stockwork gold mineralization hosted by altered volcanic units adjacent to igneous bodies that intrude the greenstone sequence

Greenstone-hosted gold deposits collectively account for more than 20% of the world’s total gold production and continue to be one of the most productive, common and sought-after types of gold deposits in Canada, Australia and Brazil. Well-known examples of major Canadian gold camps hosted in greenstone terrains include Hollinger-McIntyre (>31 million ounces gold), Kirkland Lake (>24 million ounces gold) and the Campbell-Red Lake Camp (14 million ounces Au) (Poulsen et al., 2000).

Gold deposits in greenstone terrains, most commonly Archean in age, are typically associated with regional shear zones and fault splays that cut the greenstone sequences. For this reason, greenstone- hosted deposits are often referred to as “shear-related lode gold deposits”. Other widely used names include low-sulphide gold quartz veins, Mother Lode veins, and Archean lode gold, or

49

DISCOVERY Consultants W.R. Gilmour, P.Geo. & David F. Reid, P.Geo.

mesothermal gold-quartz veins (Klohn and Broili, 2008).

Greenstone-hosted gold deposits vary considerably in character as the host rocks can include almost any of the various lithologies present in the greenstone sequence: for example, greywacke, shale and mafic to felsic volcanic units. Furthermore, the metamorphic grade of the greenstone belt and the host units vary widely. Additionally, many lucrative gold deposits occur adjacent to, or within, slightly younger post-tectonic igneous bodies of intermediate to felsic composition that intrude the greenstone sequence (Klohn and Broili, 2008).

The gold mineralization is generally classified as “mesothermal”, meaning it is thought to have formed under relatively high temperatures at considerable depths in the earth’s crust by hydrothermal and/or metamorphic processes. For this reason, the deposits may have great vertical extents, commonly two kilometres or more. In many deposits, the gold occurs in fissure veins, veinlets, stockworks and altered wall rock. The veins generally consist of coarse quartz with lesser amounts of carbonate, albite, tourmaline, sericite and chlorite. Sulphide minerals, mainly pyrite, with lesser amounts of arsenopyrite and less commonly pyrrhotite are present, but not necessarily abundant. The wall rocks are usually only altered close to the vein and this alteration consists of the same minerals that also occur in the veins – carbonates, quartz, sericite, albite and pyrite (Klohn and Broili, 2008).

9.0 MINERALIZATION

Much of the Property was acquired to cover areas of known garimpeiro operations. As a result, numerous small historic workings ranging from prospecting pits to large scale excavations are distributed throughout the Property. As noted, many garimpeiro operations in Brazil, including Serra Pelada, have transitioned from pits into significant deposits.

The mesothermal style of mineralization expected to be located on the Property will be gold hosted by sheared and deformed Archean to Proterozoic-age greenstone sequences. These rocks will be composed of metamorphosed (greenstone to amphibolite grade) volcanic/sedimentary rocks intruded by slightly younger post-tectonic bodies. Mineralization will be associated with zones of hydrothermal alteration related to regional shears zones and fault splays that cut through the greenstone package or to veinlet/stockwork style mineralization hosted by usually intensely altered volcanic units adjacent to igneous bodies that intrude the greenstone sequence.

The mineralization identified at Garimpo Juruena (Figure 8) is indicative of this type of deposit. At this location a north-northeast trending zone of stockwork style gold mineralization is associated with a system of branched and discontinuous quartz veins hosted in fractures dipping at 75° southeast. The veins range in thickness from 10 cm to 1 metre and grade is reported to be between 50 and 65 g/t gold (Tobias da Silva, 2008). The gold is associated with pyrite with lesser amounts of chalcopyrite, chalcocite, covellite, galena tetrahedrite and bornite. As a consequence of this mineral assemblage, copper, zinc, lead and silver values are elevated (Tobias da Silva, 2008). Hydrothermal alteration results in white mica, sericite and quartz mineral assemblages.

The newly discovered Eldorado do Juma located east of the Aripuana Project, approximately 75 km north of the city of Apui, demonstrates the prospectivity of the area. At this discovery located on the banks of the Juma River, an estimated 10,000 garimpeiros work in the pits of this new gold mine. Production at this site is estimated at 50,000 ounces of gold however exact figures are not known. Government geologists are trying to measure the deposit; however little hard data is available regarding the Dorado do Juma discovery except that it is being compared to the Serra Pelada gold rush that began in 1979.

10. EXPLORATION

Since Amazônia has conducted minimal exploration on the Property no extensive review is necessary in Section 10. Most of Amazônia’s efforts have been related to property acquisition, data acquisition and to making an effort to identify garimpeiro operations located on the Property. Armadillo has not carried out any mineral exploration on the Property.

A series of compilations reports were made on all of the Project areas by Tobias da Silva, 2008. These compilations plotted known mineralization and mineral tenures on various government geological maps.

10.1 Soil and Saprolite Surveys

In 2007 geochemical soil and saprolite surveys were conducted on the Theobroma Project in the area of the Serra Sem Calca prospect by Sr. Mackievicz and other personnel for Amazônia (Cruz, 2008). In total, 855 soil samples were collected during this program. The samples were collected at 25-m intervals on lines that were 100 m apart, and at 25 cm depth. Note that Mackievicz (personal communication) indicated that the soil samples were collected from 1 m depth using post-hole digger. The samples from the 11 northern lines were sent to SGS Geosol Laboratórios Ltda (“SGS”) in Belo Horizonte, Brasil. They were treated as rock samples, being pulverized to -150 mesh. The southern 10 lines (on Figure 21 the most southerly five lines are not plotted) were shipped to Acme Analitica Laboratórios Ltda. (“Acme Brazil”) preparation lab for sample preparation as soil samples, that is, sieved to -80 mesh. The lab then shipped the samples to its lab in Vancouver, Canada for analyses. Of note is that the southern 10 lines contain no anomalous gold. The anomalous gold on a line 100 m to the north is abruptly terminated. It appears that the different sample preparation methods could have caused the notable difference in the gold results between the northern and southern lines. Specifically, the samples that were sieved to -80 mesh, which was then analysed, would have removed any +80 mesh gold that might have been present. Further work is needed to determine the best methods for geochemical exploration.

In addition, 32 saprolite samples (Figure 21) were collected (Mackievicz, personal communication). The samples were sent to SGS for sample preparation and analyses.

1n 2008 on the Madeirinha Project at the São Francisco site 100 m by 100 m grid samples, likely soil samples similar to those collected at Theobroma, were taken by Mackievicz. The anomalous gold and chromium samples are shown on Figures 19 and 20.

The Madeirinha samples were analyzed by SGS in Vespasiano. All the samples from Madeirinha were treated as rocks being crushed/pulverized to -150 mesh.

10.2 Stream Sediment Survey

As far as the authors are aware, neither Amazônia nor Armadillo have conducted any geochemical stream sediment sampling on the Property.

DISCOVERY Consultants W.R. Gilmour, P.Geo. & David F. Reid, P.Geo.

11. DRILLING

As far as the authors are aware, neither Amazônia nor Armadillo have conducted any exploration drilling on the Property.

12. SAMPLING METHOD AND APPROACH

12.1 Soil and Saprolite Sampling

The soil samples were collected at 25-m or 100-m intervals on lines that were 100 m apart, and at 25 cm depth or from 1 m depth. Which method was used should be determined before future work continues. The samples along the uncut grid lines were located by GPS.

On the Theobroma, 32 saprolite samples originated from hand dug small pits and trenches over mostly the eastern portion of the grid.

13. SAMPLE PREPARATION, ANALYSES, AND SECURITY

13.1 Soil and Saprolite Sampling

On the Theobroma Project, saprolite and some soil samples were sent to SGS in Belo Horizonte. They were prepared as rock samples, that is, crushed to 2 mm and pulverized so that 95% passed -150 mesh. The analysis for gold was by fire assay methods on a 50 g sub-sample. The samples were also analysed for multi-elements by ICP methods following multi-acid digestion.

Some soil samples were sent to Acme in Goinia for sample preparation. The process comprised drying the samples and sieving them to -80 mesh. This material was shipped to Acme Analytical Laboratories Ltd. (“Acme Canada”) in Vancouver, BC for analysis. A 0.5 g sub-sample was digested by aqua regia and analysed by ICP-MS analytical techniques for 36 elements (Code 1DX). The samples were also analysed for gold by atomic absorption methods.

Acme Lab has ISO 9001:2001 accreditation and both the Vancouver and Santiago, Chile hub laboratories are working toward ISO 17025:2005 accreditation and are expected to complete the accreditation process within the next year.

The authors cannot comment on sample preparation or security of the chain of custody of the Theobroma sampling done by Amazônia as there is no documentation that describes these aspects of the Project. It is possible that some QA/QC techniques were utilized as 6 standards, 24 duplicates and 6 blanks were inserted into the sample stream.

The Madeirinha samples were analyzed by SGS in Vespasiano. All the samples were treated as rocks, that is, crushed to 2 mm and pulverized so that 95% passed -150 mesh. The analysis for gold was by fire assay methods on a 50 g sub-sample. The samples were also analysed for multi-elements by ICP methods following multi-acid digestion.

14. DATA VERIFICATION

The authors are unaware of any documentation that describes sampling methodology, QA/QC sampling and the chain of custody procedures employed on the Property by Amazônia, and so cannot comment on its suitability.

According to the assay certificates that Amazônia has in its possession, it is apparent that a certified Canadian laboratory, Acme Labs in Vancouver was used to complete the Theobroma analytical work. From the Acme assay certificates it is probable that adequate QA/QC Techniques were utilized in this sampling at Theobroma as the lab inserted 6 blanks, 24 duplicates and 6 standards into the sample stream.

At this time it is uncertain if similar QA/QC Techniques were utilized in the São Francisco sampling. The São Francisco analytical work was conducted by SGS Geosol Laboratorios Ltda, located in Vespasiano, Brazil.

15. ADJACENT PROPERTIES

Numerous companies are actively exploring and developing their properties in the Amazonas region (Figure 1). A few of the more prominent are as follows:

Eldorado Do Juma

The newly discovered Eldorado do Juma gold deposit is located east of the Aripuana Project area on the banks of the Juma River between the cities of Apui and Novo Aripuana. This site is some 450 km south of Manaus and 75 km north of Apui. Little is known about this new discovery except that it has been reported as a significant discovery (News Release- NotiEMAIL, October 29, 2009). The authors do not know if mineralization is hosted in alluvium or bedrock or both.

Amerix Precious Metals Corp.

In December 2007, Amerix Precious Metals Corporation (“Amerix”) reported that it had drilled 28 new holes for a total of 4500 m of core at its Ouro Roxo deposit on the Vila Porto Rico Property in Pará State. This deposit is located 300 km northeast of Apui.

In total, over 16,000 m of core has been drilled on the Ouro Roxo deposit by both Amerix and previous owner RTZ (Rio Tinto). Initial assay results in drill hole AORN 64 are reported to have ranged as high as 10.2 g/t gold over 10.7 m.

Amerix owns 100% of the mining rights within the 670 km2 property. Gold-rich zones have been identified within the one- to two-km wide, north-south trending Ouro fault zone. This fault zone has been traced along a strike length of more than 25 km. Best values are found within faults, shears and brecciated zones that dip moderately to the east at 40° to 50°. The Vila Porto Rico property has gold potential as it contains historic and active gold mines that anecdotal evidence suggests have produced more than two million ounces from placer and weathered bedrock (saprolite) mining operations (Amerix press release, December 13, 2007).

DISCOVERY Consultants W.R. Gilmour, P.Geo. & David F. Reid, P.Geo.

Brazauro Resources Corp.

Brazauro Resources Corp (“Brazauro”) controls a 58,000 ha property located 360 km east of the city of Apui, in east central Amazonas State. Brazauro has conducted three drilling programs since 2003 in an area located directly over a zone of pre-existing large placer pits. These pits are strung out along the northeast trending TZ high–grade gold-sulphide trend located and mined by garimpeiros since the 1960s.

Other exploration activities conducted by Brazauro have included auger soil sampling and airborne magnetic and radiometric surveys. In January 2008, Brazauro announced a 1000-m 8-hole drill program on its 100% owned Crepori project. The program was designed to test a northeast trending soil geochemical anomaly associated with a zone exhibiting hydrothermal alteration. Gold mineralization is associated with quartz, galena, chalcopyrite and sphalerite. It is reported that channel samples collected from this hydrothermally altered and veined saprolitic granite returned grades of 4.0 m of 5.56 g/t gold, 3.0 m of 4.16 g/t gold, 6.0 m of 4.05 g/t gold and 9.0 m of 11.33 g/t gold (Brazauro Press Release- Jan 8/ 2008).

Brazauro has subsequently optioned its TZ property to Eldorado Gold Corp. which has agreed to spend $US 123 million over 6 years in order to earn up to a 75% interest (West, 2009). In excess of 40,000 m of core has been drilled on the TZ property in the last four years. Non NI43-101 compliant resources at the TZ property are estimated to range from 2.5 to 3.0 million ounces gold.

Colossus Minerals Inc.

Colossus Minerals Inc. controls 100 ha on its Serra Pelada project located 1050 km east of the city of Manaus, Brazil in Para state, northern Brazil. Colossus is moving towards production following the completion of a 5,000 metre drill program completed in late spring/early summer, 2009.

The Serra Pelada discovery resulted in one of the largest gold rushes in Latin American history with up to 80,000 garimpeiros recovering an estimated 2 million oz gold, plus platinum and palladium from a huge hand-dug 400 m x 300 m x 110 m deep open pit (Dickson, 2009). Garimpeiro production declined and eventually ceased in 1986 due to a pit wall collapse and flooding.

Colossus Minerals’ most recent drill results of the Central Mineralized Zone included hole SPD-018 that returned 60.5 metres grading 14.37 g/t gold, 1.81 g/t platinum and 2.46 g/t palladium. A recent hole SPD-034 from the pit drilling returned 70.7 meters 53.59 g/t gold, 20.77 g/t platinum and 31.3 g/t palladium The Central Mineralized Zone was previously mined along strike for 350 metres and to depths of 100 metres. Previous drilling by Vale (Companhia Vale do Rio Doce “CVRD”- the worlds second largest mining group) in this area (1980-1998) encountered some remarkable intersections including 43 metres grading 4,709 g/t gold, 204 g/t platinum and 1,174 g/t palladium (Dickson, 2009). Oxidation at Serra Pelada extends down to 330 metres.

Recent drilling has confirmed that the gold-PGM mineralization extends under the pit and for more than 450 metres to the western boundary of the licence. Mineralization has been encountered at depths ranging from 150 to 250 metres (Dickson, 2009).

Serabi Mining Co.

The United Kingdom-based Serabi Mining Co. (“Serabi”) property is located in the same area as the Brazauro property, approximately 300 km north east of Apui. Serabi was involved in the evaluation, development and mining of its Palito Mine in the Jardin do Ouro District. It is reported that artisanal miners have produced almost 30 million ounces of gold from the Palito area.

Serabi came into commercial production in October, 2007. It is reported that Serabi produced 28,549 oz of gold from its Palito Mine and it continues to explore Jardin do Ouro and conducts regional exploration of the largely unexplored Tapajos area in Pará State (CETEM news release, July 3, 2009). Published non 43-101 compliant resource estimates for the Palito Mine (at a cut off grade of 2.0 g/t Au) are 2.08 million tonnes grading 9.1 g/t gold and 0.39% copper (Brazauro Press Release- October, 2007).

Red Dragon Resources Corp.

The Red Dragon Resources Corp. (“Red Dragon”) holds 14 concessions representing 56,790 ha in four separate properties in the Tapajos Mineral Province in eastern Amazonas State. The properties cover historic alluvial workings and have been partially explored by Mapex Mineracao LTDA (“Mapex”) and CRC do Brazil Mineracao Limitada (“CRC”). Exploration work to date includes airborne magnetic and radiometric surveys, stream, soil and rock geochemistry, ground IP surveys, auger drilling and geological mapping. The Rosa de Maio Property has a number of drill ready targets. One of these exhibits a 5 km in diameter gold soil anomaly which is underlain by altered granite containing disseminated sulphides and quartz-sulphide stock work veins. The soil anomaly is coincident with a flexure in a large northeast trending regional fault (Red Dragon press release, September 24, 2009).

RiverRun Resources Inc.

In July 2009, RiverRun Resources Inc. (“RiverRun”) announced an option to acquire the Aldebaran gold property located 540 km south of the city of Manaus. The property is defined by a large gold in soil anomaly of 6 km x 5 km. Previous drilling has indicated that high grade sections (>5 g/t gold) are indicated to be 2000 m in length, 5 m thick and up to 400 m deep (River Run press release, July 20, 2009).

The mineralization on nearby and adjacent properties is not necessarily indicative of the potential of mineralization on the Property that is the subject of this Report. .

18. INTERPRETATION AND CONCLUSIONS

18.1 Geology and Mineralization

As previously stated, many of Amazônia’s exploration licences cover known past and present garimpeiro mining operations. As a result, numerous small historic workings ranging from prospecting pits to large scale excavations are distributed throughout the Property

The main exploration targets on the Property are mesothermal gold mineralization hosted by sheared and deformed Proterozoic age greenstone sequences, generally mapped as the Iriri/Colíder Group. These host rocks are metamorphosed (greenstone to amphibolite grade) volcanic /sedimentary rocks intruded by slightly younger post-tectonic bodies.

Targets similar to Garimpo Tres Estados and Garimpo São Francisco, exist(?) southwest of the Curauai Project. Targets are associated with zones of hydrothermal alteration related to strong regional shears zones and fault splays that cut through the greenstone package or to veinlet/stockwork style mineralization hosted by intensely altered volcanic units adjacent to igneous bodies that intrude the greenstone sequence.

At Garimpo Juruena (Juruena Project) a north-northeast (azimuth 20° to 25°) trending zone of stockwork-style gold mineralization is associated with a system of branched and discontinuous quartz veins hosted in fractures dipping at 75° southeast. The veins range in thickness from 10 cm to 1 m and grade is reported to be between 50 and 65 g/t gold (Tobias da Silva, 2008). The gold is associated with pyrite with lesser amounts of chalcopyrite, chalcocite, covellite, galena tetrahedrite and bornite. As a consequence of this mineral assemblage copper, zinc, lead and silver values are elevated (Tobias da Silva, 2008). Hydrothermal alteration results in the development of sericite and quartz mineral assemblages.

The newly discovered Eldorado do Juma located 50 km east of the Aripuana Project, some 75 km north of Apui, demonstrates the prospectivity of the area. At this discovery an estimated 10,000 garimpeiros work in the pits of this new gold mine. Production at this site is estimated at 50,000 ounces of gold however exact figures are not known. Government geologists are currently trying to measure the deposit; however, little hard data is available regarding this discovery.

18.2 Exploration Targets

18.2.1 Manicore Project

Most of this Project is underlain by the favourable Iriri/Colíder Group. A reconnaissance investigation, including sampling any garimpeiro sites, is needed to evaluate the potential of this Project area and if additional exploration is warranted.

18.2.2 Aripuana Project

Recently a gold rush has developed at the Eldorado do Juma gold deposit, located 75 km north of the city of Apui along the banks of the Juma River about 50 km east of the Aripuana Project. The Project is underlain by the favourable Iriri/Colíder Group and a reconnaissance investigation, including sampling of garimpeiro sites, is needed to evaluate the potential of this Project area and if additional exploration is warranted.

56

DISCOVERY Consultants W.R. Gilmour, P.Geo. & David F. Reid, P.Geo.

18.2.3 Curauai Project - Block 1

A reconnaissance investigation looking for evidence of garimpeiro sites and then sampling them are needed to evaluate the potential of this Project area and if additional exploration is warranted. If there are workings present in this area they may be indicative of favourable Iriri/Colíder Group poking through the cover sandstones. However, if none are present this area is of lower priority.

18.2.4 Curauai Project - Block 2

Two garimpeiro gold sites are known in this area (CPRM, 2005). This area may represent the western extension of the Tapajos gold district (CPRM, 2005) in western Para State, which has produced over 20 million oz of gold and is still in production. At Tapajos gold–bearing quartz veins occur in intrusive rocks. The areas of favourable geology, the Parauari Intrusive suite and any garimpeiro sites, need to be visited and evaluated. Results of these activities will determine if this Project warrants exploration.

18.2.5 Madeirinha Project

The mineral tenures are all located within a large area mapped as the São Romao Intrusive Suite described as consisting mainly of metagranodiorite, metamonzogranite and metasyenogranite (Tobias da Silva, 2009).

One garimpeiro site is known on processo minerais 866994 (CPRM, 2005). Garimpeiro tin mining activity is known (São Francisco Sn), immediately to the north of 866637 and 866996. In 2008 Amazônia personnel conducted a test geochemical survey on another São Francisco garimpeiro site located on tenure 886996 (Figure 8). Samples, on a 100 m by 100 m grid, likely soil samples as collected at Theobroma, were collected from perhaps 1 m depth.

The gold values show areas of anomalous gold (Figure 17) that warrant further exploration. Results of this survey show iron, nickel, chromium (Figure 19), and vanadium multi-line anomalies indicating that rock types other than granitic rocks may be present.

A reconnaissance investigation looking for evidence of garimpeiro sites and then sampling them are needed to evaluate the potential of this Project area and if additional exploration is warranted.

57

DISCOVERY Consultants W.R. Gilmour, P.Geo. & David F. Reid, P.Geo.

18.2.6 Juruena Project

Most of the tenures cover the geologically favourable Iriri/Colíder Group, with the eastern tenure being underlain by the Paleoproterozoic Juruena Intrusive suite. These tenures and the Garimpo Juruena need to be visited and sampled to evaluate the potential of this Project area and if additional exploration is warranted..

18.2.7 Matupa Project – Blocks 1 to 4

Most of the tenures are underlain by the favourable Iriri/Colíder Group with some felsic and mafic intrusive suites. A reconnaissance investigation looking for evidence of garimpeiro sites and then sampling them are needed to evaluate the potential of this Project area and if additional exploration is warranted.

18.2.8 Jatoba Project

Several kimberlite intrusions and chimneys are known to exist on the Jatoba Project. Diamond exploration targets are low priority and no work is planned in the next phases of exploration.

18.2.9 Cacoal Project

The tenures were staked to cover diamond and tin exploration targets. Diamond and tin exploration targets are low priority and no work is planned in the next phases of exploration.

18.2.10 Theobroma Project

On the Theobroma Project there are two abandoned garimpeiro gold mining sites, the Igarape Genipapo diggings in the north and Theobroma diggings in the south (CPRM, 2005). An additional 11 smaller garimpeiro sites occur around these two principal gold mines. It has been reported (personal communication, J. Young) that this region produced some 76,000 ounces of gold from these two principal garimpeiro sites. Gold mineralization is hosted by the Proterozoic Nova Brasilandia metavolcanic sequence.

The geochemical soil survey by Amazônia over a portion of these sites shows gold anomalies (Figure 21) that warrant follow-up exploration. On the Serra Sem Calca prospect 855 soil samples were collected at 25-m intervals on lines that were 100 m apart, and at 25 cm depth or from 1 m depth. Which method was used should be determined before future work continues. The samples from the 11 northern lines were sent to SGS and were treated as rock samples. The southern 10 lines were shipped to Acme and were treated as soil samples. Of note is that the southern 10 lines contain no anomalous gold. The anomalous gold on a line 100 m to the north is abruptly terminated. It appears that the different sample preparation methods could have caused the notable difference in the gold results between the northern and southern lines. Specifically, the samples that were sieved to -80 mesh, which was then analysed, would have removed any +80 mesh gold that might have been present. Further work is needed to determine the best methods for geochemical exploration.

Results of this survey indicated a strong, wide (up to 125 m) gold, iron, lead, zinc, and barium multi line anomaly that discontinuously extends from line LPSE006A through Line LPNE005 a distance of 1000 metres. This anomalous zone is orientated almost due north/south. Other shorter, narrow linear anomalous zones are located approximately 200 metres east of the main anomaly (Figure 18).

Thirty two decomposed rock (saprolite) samples were collected from the Theobroma gridded area. 60

DISCOVERY Consultants W.R. Gilmour, P.Geo. & David F. Reid, P.Geo.

The samples originated from hand dug small pits and trenches over mostly the eastern portion of the grid. Gold values are low (Figure 18) with maximum values reaching 20 ppb. No saprolite samples were collected from the lengthy, north-south trending geochemical anomaly located 100 m west of the baseline.

Other areas of garimpeiro activity are known to exist on other Property mineral tenures (personal communication, J. Young) and on the Block 2 area to the southwest. These areas will need to be evaluated.

It is the authors’ conclusion that the Property is a Property of Merit and it is recommended that further exploration be carried out on the Property.

19. RECOMMENDATIONS

In view of the favourable land position in a very prospective area, the following two phase exploration program is recommended.

19.1 Recommended Phase One Exploration Program

The objective of Phase One of the proposed exploration project is to explore and evaluate the exploration licences currently controlled by Amazônia in the States of Amazonas, Mato Grosso and Rondônia, Brazil. Although the emphasis will be on gold exploration, exploration should be aware of base metal potential. To facilitate this process all known garimpeiro mining areas identified to date on ground controlled by Amazônia will be visited and evaluated. This work should include but not be limited to evaluating:

• The Garimpo Juruena workings located in the Juruena Project

• The Jenipapo and Serra Sem Calca prospects in the Theobroma Project

• Areas underlain by the Paleoproterozoic Iriri/Cilídor Group greenstone package consisting of andesites, basalts, various tuffaceous units, pyroclastic breccias, siliclastic sediments and felsic volcanic units including rhyolites and rhyodacites, as these rock are favourable for shear zone hosted gold deposits

• Areas of favourable geology with evidence for significant deep crustal structures

• Evaluating all tenures to prioritize exploration areas, dropping areas of low potential

As this phase of the project progresses it is anticipated that other garimpeiro mining areas will be discovered and evaluated.

Phase One exploration is estimated to cost C$ 1,860,000 as proposed to Armadillo herein. Budgeting details are presented in Table 2. The amount of expenditures could vary, depending on the number of exploration licence applications that are granted. Note that the proposed budgets do not include any annual fees payable to maintain exploration licences.

This program would consist of property scale and occurrence scale mapping and extensive rock sampling, stream sediment or heavy mineral sampling, the placement of grids and soil auger geochemical sampling to cover identified anomalies; the commencement of a ground geophysical survey (magnetics and VLF) with the objective of delineating structures that may control mineralization; and finally hand trenching in areas of interest.

Mapping should be conducted on regional, detailed and semi-detailed scales. It has been suggested to proceed with the 1:250,000 scale mapping on a regional scale, 1:50,000 and/or 1:100,000 for the semi-detailed scale and 1:1,000 and/or 1:2,000 scales where more detail is needed (Tobias da Silva, 2008).

64 DISCOVERY Consultants W.R. Gilmour, P.Geo. & David F. Reid, P.Geo.

19.2 Recommended Phase Two Exploration Program

Contingent on positive results of the Phase One exploration program, a Phase Two Program is recommended, involving additional mapping and sampling, trenching and 6,000 metres of diamond drilling. The primary objectives of this program will be to:

• Expand on the geochemical sampling from Phase 1

• Test any possible new structures inferred from the Phase 1 geophysical and geochemical surveys by trenching

• Evaluate by diamond drilling newly identified significant vein systems along strike and to depth.

• Drill test new targets outlined by the geochemical, geophysical and trenching programs.

• A budget of C$ 2,230,000 is proposed to Armadillo for completion of Phase Two. Details of activities and budget herein proposed are presented in Table 3.

Priority will be given to areas of extensive garimpeiro mining where drilling will be performed to test both the down dip and along strike extensions of surface mineralization. The exact positioning of drill holes is to be determined by incorporating geological, geochemical and geophysical results.
