This news release has been reviewed and approved by Neil Froc, P.Eng., a qualified person consistent with NI 43-101. The news release includes the use of inferred resources that are considered too speculative geologically to have economic considerations applied to them that would enable them to be categorized as mineral reserves. The news release uses the terms "measured" "indicated" and "inferred" resources. We advise U.S. investors that while those terms are recognized and required by Canadian regulations, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission does not recognize them. U.S. investors are cautioned not to assume that any part or all of mineral deposits in these categories will ever be converted to reserves.

The TSX has not reviewed this news release and does not accept responsibility for the accuracy or adequacy of this news release.
