QP Statement
Mr. Shaun M. Dykes, M.Sc. (Eng), P. Geo., Director of the Company, is the designated qualified person for the B&C Springs property and has prepared the technical information contained in this news release.
About the B&C Springs Property
The B&C Springs property consists of 337 unpatented lode claims in the southern Paradise Range in west-central Nevada, within the Fairplay Mining District, which historically is a prolific precious metals mining district. Notably, the Paradise Peak Mine 5.6 miles to the West/Southwest of the B&C Springs Project produced 1.6 million ounces of gold and 24 million ounces of silver from 1986 to 1994. Recent historic drilling at B&C Springs intersected a Mo-Cu-Ag mineralized zone, indicating there is significant base metal potential as well.
