Cautionary note: 

This report contains forward looking statements. Resource estimates, unless
specifically noted, are considered speculative. Any and all other resource or
reserve estimates are historical in nature, and should not be relied upon. The
production rate and mine-life projections have been made without support of a
feasibility study, there is no certainty the proposed operations will be
economically viable. By their nature, forward looking statements involve risk
and uncertainties because they relate to events and depend on factors that will
or may occur in the future. Actual results may vary depending upon exploration
activities, industry production, commodity demand and pricing, currency exchange
rates, and, but not limited to, general economic factors. Cautionary Note to US
investors: The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission specifically prohibits
the use of certain terms, such as "reserves" unless such figures are based upon
actual production or formation tests and can be shown to be economically and
legally producible.
