Each Unit consists of one common share and one transferable common share purchase warrant exercisable into an additional common share for a period of two years, at an exercise price of $1.15 in the first year and thereafter, at an exercise price of $1.30, subject to acceleration in certain circumstances. The bulk of the Private Placement has been subscribed to by three associated funds who, on closing, will own 14.6% of the 13,237,735 outstanding common shares of the Company. The common shares and the warrants are subject to a four month hold period from the date of the closing which, subject to receipt of TSXV final clearance, is scheduled to take place on July 28, 2006. No finders fees are payable on the transaction. The funds will be used to finance further development and exploration of the Company's Mina Real gold/silver property interests in Nayarit State, Mexico (the "Mina Real Project") and for general working capital purposes. Site preparation and civil works for the previously announced conventional mill and related infrastructure at the Mina Real Project is well underway. Firm contracts for the purchase and delivery of key components of the mill have been placed with suppliers with deliveries scheduled over the coming weeks. The plant is scheduled for completion during the fourth quarter of 2006 and will have a design capacity of 300 tonnes/day, with an initial start-up capacity contemplated at 200 tonnes/day.
