Highlights

		Ten inclined diamond drill holes totaling 1806.4 metres were drilled on the Link-Catharine property between 1999 and 2003.
		Previous (1999-2003) drill programs show the assay grade for the more interesting zones have averaged 0.91 to 2.34 g/t Au over widths ranging from 2.6 to 15.6 metres. The best intersections were encountered in DDH 99-4, in which intervals returned 6.00 and 1.91 g/t Au over 8.6 and 20.4 m, respectively.
		2008 drill program on the MC Zone include (see press release dated November 17, 2008): DDH CAT 08-02: 3.55 g/t gold over 3.0 m and 3.26 g/t gold over 1.2 m; DDH CAT 08-04: 1.01 g/t gold over 10.0 m and 2.65 g/t gold over 3.4 m

The region is best known for the Kirkland Lake Gold Camp and for its past gold production from a number of underground mines along a six-kilometre main ore zone. The first mine commenced operations in 1913; six of the seven mines operated until 1968. One of these older mines, the Macassa Mine is still operating. The area has produced 24 million ounces of gold.

The Link-Catharine property is spatially located along and straddling the Round Lake Batholith-Wabewawa Group volcanic rock contact. It is more locally at the southeastern end of this contact zone which forms the favourable Boston-Skead gold belt. A pattern of major complementary structures in the volcanic sequence presents a favourable geologic corridor for gold mineralization on the Link-Catharine property.

Diamond drill holes from the 2008 GDM and earlier programs on the Link-Catharine property have intersected a series of 1.0 to 20.0 m wide gold-bearing quartz-sulphide vein systems with iron carbonate and chloritic alteration in basalt host rock. The MC Zone gold mineralization occurs in a basaltic and ultramafic sequence as a system of gold-bearing quartz veins trending primarily northerly across the Link-Catharine property. This northerly trend is complemented by a cross-trending series of breaks, providing the setting for the possible development of sub parallel and reticulated vein systems. Mineralized intersections grading 6.0 g/t Au over 8.6 m, and 1.91 g/t Au over 20.4 m were reported from historical drilling. The 2008 summer diamond drilling in the area of the MC Zone intersected a number of 1.0 cm to 1.5 m-wide quartz veins and brecciated quartz zones in iron carbonate and chlorite altered basalt. Pyrite occurs primarily as disseminated grains in the alteration envelopes that bound the veins and fracture fillings. Gold is intimately associated with pyrite. Highlights of the drill program on the MC Zone include (see press release dated November 17, 2008):

• DDH CAT 08-02: 3.55 g/t gold over 3.0 m and 3.26 g/t gold over 1.2 m
• DDH CAT 08-04: 1.01 g/t gold over 10.0 m and 2.65 g/t gold over 3.4 m

A ground magnetometer and VLF-EM survey was completed in 2008 to determine if geological signatures related to potential mineralization could be defined. Preliminary interpretation of the ground magnetometer survey indicates a prominent 200 to 300m wide magnetic anomaly that extends northerly along the 3.9 km length of the Link-Catharine claim block. There is another 600m along north-south oriented magnetic high along the eastern margin of the claim block; this anomaly probably represents the signature of underlying ultramafic rock. A distinct northwesterly trending magnetic anomaly is defined; this anomaly bridges the gap between the western and eastern anomalies. The intersection of this northwesterly-trending anomaly and the western north-south-trending anomaly is proximal to the current drilling area. Several easterly to east-northeast fault trends are inferred.
