RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE ADEQUACY OR ACCURACY OF THIS NEWS RELEASE.

This news release includes certain statements that may be deemed
"forward-looking statements." All statements in this release, other than
statements of historical facts, including the expected completion of the

those in forward-looking statements include, changes in market conditions,
unsuccessful exploration results, unanticipated changes in key management

an inherently risky business. Accordingly the actual events may differ
materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements. This list is
