Investors are cautioned not to assume that any part or all of the mineral deposits in these categories will be converted into reserves. Mineral resources that are not mineral reserves, do not have demonstrated economic viability. In addition, 'inferred resources' have a great amount of uncertainty as to their existence, and economic and legal feasibility. It cannot be assumed that an inferred resource will be upgraded to a higher category. Under Canadian rules, estimates of inferred resources may not form the basis of feasibility or pre-feasibility studies, or economic studies except for preliminary economic assessment as defined under NI 43-101. Investors are cautioned not to assume that part or all of an inferred resource exists, or is economically or legally mineable.

The basis on which this potential quantity of gold (which is conceptual in nature) has been determined as a target is based on the Company having completed resource drilling on only portions of 2 of 26 areas of 4 outcropping gold mineralization and none of the buried geophysical targets at Gold Springs, and has already reported a mineral resource within the two drilled areas.
