As stated on September 14, 2009, KWG and Spider have committed to undertake an exploration program on the Big Daddy Chromite Property under which an aggregate of at least $5 million must be spent by March 31, 2010, in order for Spider and KWG to earn an additional 1.5% each (3.0% in aggregate), bringing each Optionees respective interest level to 26.5%. The field aspect of this program has commenced, with crews arriving on September 20, 2009. Field operations are currently based out of the Billiken Management Services Ltd.'s Base camp, located at McFaulds Lake. Cabo Drilling (Ontario) Corp. was recently awarded the diamond drilling contract portion of the program. It is anticipated that approximately 11,000 metres of diamond drilling will be completed during the current phase of exploration, the results of which will be incorporated into an initial resource estimate for Big Daddy.

Drilling Program

Drilling commenced September 23, 2009 on hole FW-09-24 located on Line 1400E @ 1700N; drilling at 135o azimuth, with an initial dip of -50o. Intermittent chromite beds in a serpentinized dunite were intersected between 64.6 and 86.0 metres downhole. Chromitite was intersected between 101.9 and 132.2 metres downhole (30.3 metres of massive chromite). The hole was stopped at 136.4 metres in pyroxenite on September 26th. Assay results are pending. This hole compares favorably with holes FW-08-22 and FW-08-23, both of which are located 100 metres to the southwest on Section 1300E. As previously announced on January 14, 2009, Hole FW-08-22 encountered 42.08% Cr2O3 over 34.8 metres, and FW-08-23 encountered 34.96% Cr2O3 over 42.0 metres. These two holes also encountered intriguing platinum and palladium mineralization grading as high as 1.08 g/t Pt and 1.5 g/t Pd over 4 metres (in hole FW-08-23). True width of the chromitite and the platinum and palladium zone is not yet determined.

A second hole FW-09-25 was started on September 26, 2009 on Line 1400E @ 1800N with an initial azimuth of 135o azimuth, with an initial dip of -50o, designed to undercut hole FW-09-24. Intermittent chromite beds were intersected between 153.4 and 233.9 in a serpentized dunite. This was followed by chromitite from 233.9 onwards to 271.9 metres downhole (38.0 metres of massive chromite). The hole was stopped at 341.0 metres in pyroxenite on September 30, 2009. Assays are pending on this hole. The first drill is moving onto its' third hole setup.

The second drill crew arrived on September 26, 2009 and are in the process of moving the second rig onto its' first site. It is anticipated that this rig will commencing drilling on October 1, 2009. There are approximately 28 holes planned for the current drill program, testing the Big Daddy Chromite Occurrence along its entire geophysically inferred strike length (estimated to be in excess of 1 kilometer) to a depth of 250 metres.
