Altitude is an Alberta company incorporated on Aug. 19, 2010. The company has its head office located in Calgary. Altitude holds six coal licences in the Hinton area of west-central Alberta (the Palisades coal property). According to the resource report for the Palisades coal property dated Nov. 28, 2011, by Robert F. Engler, P.Geol, and Robert J. Morris, MSc, P.Geol, at Moose Mountain Technical Services, the Palisades coal property has the potential to host significant coal resources, and is a property of merit and worthy of further exploration.

The following information regarding the Palisades coal property was extracted from the technical report. Historical drilling has confirmed that the coal seams on the Palisades coal property demonstrate moderate lateral stratigraphic and coal-quality continuity, and that the raw in situ coal is classified as being low-volatile bituminous coking coal. On the basis of the current interpretation, the Palisades coal property is classified as a complex, potentially surface minable deposit. Potential exists for structurally thickened coal seams, which could present attractive mining situations.

Three additional greenfield coal properties are also included in the qualifying transaction. The properties are the Palisades extension (which is adjacent to the Palisades coal project), Moberly Creek and Berland. The combined properties cover over 17,100 hectares, and they are all located in close proximity to existing infrastructure such as paved roads and rail lines.

Gene Wusaty, Altitude's Chairman, a qualified person as defined by NI 43-101, supervised the preparation of the technical information in this release.
