Ladies and Gentlemen:

Re:     Registration Statement on Form SB-2
        Our File: 20020452

We have acted as Yukon counsel for Idaho Consolidated Metals Corp., a
corporation incorporated under the laws of British Columbia and continued to the
Yukon Territory (the "Company"), in connection with the preparation and filing
with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission") under the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), of a Registration
Statement on Form SB-2 (the "Registration Statement"), including a prospectus to
be filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) of Regulation C promulgated
under the Securities Act (the "Prospectus") relating to an aggregate of
60,994,361 shares of common stock, no par value (the "Shares") of the Company,
of which: (i) 43,921,930 Shares (the "Issued Shares") are currently issued and
outstanding; (ii) 5,957,458 Shares (the "Option Shares") are issuable on
exercise of outstanding options of the Company and (iii) 4,313,544 Shares (the
"Warrant Shares") are issuable on exercise of outstanding warrants of the
Company; 4,534,286 Shares (the "Debenture Shares") are issuable on conversion of
a Debenture; and 2,267,143 Shares (the "Debenture Warrant Shares") are issuable
on exercise of warrants issued pursuant to the Convertible Debenture. A total of
44,481,728 Shares may be sold by certain shareholders of the Company.

The Company has issued a $1,000,000 convertible debenture ("Debenture"),
convertible at the option of the holder. The Debenture is convertible into units
of the Company at a deemed price of $0.35 per unit. Each unit consisting of one
Debenture Share and one-half of a common share purchase warrant (the "Debenture
Warrant"). Each whole Debenture Warrant is exercisable for a Debenture Warrant
Share of the Company at a price of C$0.70 per Debenture Warrant Share.

As special counsel to the Company, in connection with this opinion, we have
examined and relied upon such records, documents, certificates and other
instruments as in our judgment are necessary or appropriate to form the basis
for the opinions set forth herein. In our examinations, we have assumed the
genuineness of all signatures, the legal capacity of natural persons signing or
delivering any instrument, the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as
originals, the conformity to original documents submitted to us as certified or
photostatic copies and the authenticity of the originals of such latter
documents.

With respect to the opinion in paragraph 2 and the portions of the remaining
opinions that relate to matters on or before August 17, 2001, during which time
the Company was a British Columbia company, we have relied on the opinion of
Gowling Lafleur Henderson LLP dated July 3, 2002 (the "Gowling Opinion").

Based upon and subject to the foregoing, we are of the opinion, as of the date
hereof, that:

1.      The Issued Shares have been duly authorized and validly issued and are
        fully paid and non-assessable;

2.      The Company has duly authorized for issuance the Option Shares and such
        Option Shares, when issued and paid for in accordance with the terms of
        the respective option agreements will be validly issued, fully-paid and
        non-assessable.

3.      The Company has duly authorized for issuance the Warrant Shares and such
        Warrant Shares, when issued and paid for in accordance with the terms of
        the warrants, will be validly issued, fully-paid and non-assessable.

4.      The Company has duly authorized for issuance the Debenture Shares and
        such Debenture Shares, when issued in accordance with the terms of the
        Debenture will be validly issued, fully-paid and non-assessable.

5.      The Company has duly authorized for issuance the Debenture Warrant
        Shares and such Debenture Warrant Shares, when issued and paid for in
        accordance with the Debenture Warrant certificates will be validly
        issued, fully-paid and non-assessable.

The opinions expressed in this letter are subject to the following exceptions
and qualifications:

(a)     we do not express any opinion with respect to the laws of any
        jurisdiction other than the Yukon Territory and the laws of Canada
        specifically applicable thereto;

(b)     our opinions are based on legislation and regulations in effect on the
        date hereof;

(c)     our opinions are limited to those matters which occurred on or after
        August 17, 2001 the date of the Corporation's continuance into the
        Yukon. We express no opinion whatsoever with respect to any matter which
        occurred on or before August 16, 2001 except those matters opined on by
        Gowling Lafleur Henderson LLP in the Gowling Opinion; and

(d)     the authorization, validity and number of issued and outstanding common
        shares of the Company referenced in paragraph 1 above is based solely,
        without our having conducted any specific investigations, on the records
        of Computershare Trust Company of Canada, the Company's registrar and
        transfer agent, as at May 31, 2002.

This opinion is delivered exclusively for the benefit and use of the persons to
whom it is addressed and is not to be used or relied upon, used by or
distributed by any other person or party without our prior written consent.

We hereby consent to the filing of this opinion as an exhibit to the
Registration Statement and to the reference to this firm appearing under the
heading "Legal Matters" in the Prospectus. In giving such consent, we do not
thereby admit that we are in the category of persons whose consent is required
under Section 7 of the Securities Act or the General Rules and Regulations of
the Commission thereunder.

Yours very truly,

CAMPION MACDONALD
