Corporate Highlights
• valuable and undervalued properties for base and precious metals have been identified
• to commence and complete full geological surveys and drilling on 7 properties, including:
• testing methods:– airborne and ground based– systematic, mapping, drilling, delineation,
sampling of resources on key properties to commence
• determine commercial viability of each property• with 23 licenses (6 advanced mineral properties) we
have the to acquire or merge with a public company
Investment Strategy
• Minimize risk and maximize long term returns• Acquisition of advanced exploration projects• Development of a large acreage of early stage
exploration properties
Opportunity Characteristics
• Potential investment opportunities must exhibit the following characteristics:– Under exploited assets,– Sustainable growth prospects,– Strong position in the market,– Valuation representing a discount to net cash or asset
value,– Yields more than average return on investment.
