The gross proceeds raised from the Private Placement including any proceeds raised under the closing of a second tranche will be used by the Company to incur exploration expenditures on its mineral properties.

("Clarus") equal to 6% of the gross proceeds raised under the Private Placement relating to investors introduced by M Partners and Clarus, respectively, and has also issued 1,199,834 non-transferable compensation options (each, an "Option") to M Partners and 299,959 Options to Clarus. Each Option entitles the holder to purchase one unit of securities of the Company (each, a "Finder Unit"), at a price of $0.11, for a 24-month period.  Each Finder Unit is comprised of one common share of the Company and one-half of one common share purchase warrant of the Company.
