(“Talisker”) 100% interest in 141 mining claims in Wawa, Ontario, in consideration for one-time cash payment of $577,499 and issuing 4,000,000 common shares of the Company (the “Transaction”). The consolidated 100-square-kilometre property package in Wawa brings significant exploration upside for expansion of existing mineralization and new discoveries.

The Golden Sky Project is located approximately 50 kilometres west of the town of Wawa and is situated immediately between the Eagle River underground mine and the Mishi open pit mine of Wesdome. The property is host to the near-surface Dorset Gold Zone, which contains an historic estimated resource (using a 0.50 g Au/t cut-off) consisting of an indicated resource of 40,000 ounces of gold (780,000 tonnes grading 1.4 g/t Au), and an inferred resource of 180,000 ounces of gold (4,760,000 tonnes grading 1.2 g/t Au).
