Item 5 Full Description of Material Change
The Company announces that drilling is underway on the Cape Ray Gold Project, located in southwest Newfoundland.
A minimum of 2,500 metres of drilling is planned for the 2004 program, consisting of 7 to 9 diamond drill holes. The drill program will consist of in-fill drilling, drilling to test the strike and down-plunge extent of the known mineralization at the 04 deposit and drilling to test the potential between the 04 and 41 deposits. The 04 deposit was the site of the Company’s spring 2003 drill program, where five of six holes encountered significant gold mineralization (see News Releases of June 17 and 23, 2003). Down-plunge drilling in the spring 2003 program confirmed that the 04 deposit remains open at depth.
The Cape Ray Gold Project is an advanced stage exploration project with four known deposits related to the Cape Ray Fault Zone. The Project has three separate claim groups: 1) the Cape Ray claim group, which contains the 04 and 41 deposits; 2) the Big Pond claim group, which contains the Big Pond deposit; 3) the Isle aux Morts claim group, which contains the Isle aux Morts deposit.
