The rights to all other mineral resources including, but not restricted to, base metals, platinum and palladium remains with Canadian Arrow.

Mr. Kim Tyler, President, said, "We are very pleased that San Gold has agreed to invest exploration expenditures in our mineral properties and in our Company directly through the equity placement.

To maintain the Agreement in good standing and earn an 80% interest in the Precious Metals contained on the properties, San Gold has agreed to, among other things, purchase 5,000,000 units of the Company at a price of $0.10 per unit. Each unit will be comprised of one common share in the capital of the Company and a ½ of one share purchase warrant. Each full warrant will entitle San Gold to purchase one common share in the capital of the Company for an exercise price of $0.20 for a period up to two years from the date of the issuance of the warrant.  The securities issued in connection with the unit offering are subject to a four month hold period that will expire on October 26, 2012. In addition San Gold is also required to incur an aggregate $1,500,000 in expenditures on the properties graduated over four years from the date of execution of the Agreement. Upon completion of San Gold's obligations under the Agreement, San Gold will earn an 80% interest in all Precious Metals contained on the properties and a joint venture will be formed between San Gold and the Company. Initial ownership in the joint venture will be San Gold 80% and Canadian Arrow 20%.
