About the Properties:

The Savard, Fan and Marcotte properties are located in the Bellechasse gold belt of Southern Québec.  They are comprised of two separate blocks totaling 108 cells and 40 claims for a total of 6,657 Ha.

The Properties are contiguous to the North and South of Golden Hope Mine's Bellechasse-Timmins gold property and the Timmins gold deposit is located just 2 km North of the Properties.  On April 18, 2012, Golden Hope Mines announced that drilling intersected 152 Metres of 1.51 g/t Gold (Au) at Bellechasse-Timmins and the company expects to announce their first resource estimate in late May or early June, 2012.
