Note: The Qualified Person ("QP") has not inspected the drill cores. No check assays have been performed.The QP does not have inadequate information to determine whether the reported intersections represent true widths. The results presented are historical in nature and cannot necessarily be relied upon as accurate. The drill hole information was sourced from the following assessment reports, which are in the public domain.

Millrock has purchased a 100% interest in the project for the sum of $40,000 and 300,000 Millrock shares. All currency referenced herein are Canadian dollars. Millrock will also make other payments in the event the following milestones are met:

1. In the event that 2,500 meters of drilling is completed, $40,000 or 200,000 Millrock shares at the option of the vendor; and
2. If a Preliminary Economic Assessment ("PEA") is completed, Millrock will pay 50 cents per ounce of gold contained on the property in an Inferred Resource (Canadian Institute of Mining definition) to a maximum of $2 million; and
3. If a Decision to Mine is made, Millrock will pay $1.00 per ounce of gold contained on Reserves and Resources in all categories delineated at the time, less any amount paid at the time of the PEA, to a maximum of $5 million.

Mine production, if it occurs, will be subject to a 3% Net Smelter Returns royalty. The royalty may be purchased in its entirety for the sum of $3 million at any time prior to the commencement of commercial production.

The purchase and sale agreement is subject to approval by the TSX Venture Exchange.

Gregory A. Beischer, Millrock President stated: "The prospect is in steep mountainous terrain on the eastern edge of the Cambria Icefield. The terrain will present challenges, but also opportunities. Glaciers have been rapidly receding over the years since the last exploration drilling work was done in 1995. Much more may now be visible and accessible. The gold grades intersected by previous explorers are quite high. We look forward to following up on the discoveries made previously."

Eleven different zones of mineralization have been identified on the property. The host rocks are Jurassic in age and are geologically assigned to the lower portions of the Hazelton Group. The high grade gold zones are associated with vein structures and sulfide minerals.
