About the Marudi Gold Project

The Marudi Gold Project is the Company's flagship project located in Guyana, South America. Marudi is unique in that it has three known gold bearing areas, specifically the alluvial areas, the saporlite overburden and the lower hard-rock. 42,000 metres of diamond drilling (141 holes) has been performed on the property's hard-rock by prior operators. This historical work has delineated multiple historical mineral resource estimates on the Project. For information concerning these estimates and the Project, readers are encouraged to review "NI 43-101 Technical Report on the Marudi Property, Guyana", a technical report prepared for the Company by Derrick Strickland, P.
