SUMMARY

The St. John Ridge Project is located on the north edge of the historic Beaverdell Mining Camp. Exploration in the area dates to the 1880‘s when silver was discovered in 1887 on Wallace Mountain and placer gold was discovered in several creeks located north of the project during the same period. The Beaverdell Mining Camp has produced nearly 50,000,000 ounces of silver, with significant amounts of gold, lead and zinc to date.

The St. John Ridge Project consists of a six cell mineral claim that has a total surface area of approximately 314 acres. The claims are in the Greenwood Mining Division, and is centered at approximately 49o30'30” N latitude and 119o00‘W longitude on BC TRIM MAP Sheets 082E055 & 082E056. The town of Beaverdell is located 6 miles to the southwest from the property. There is good road access to most parts of the property.

The project encompasses a documented mineral showings listed in the BC Government mineral inventory data base “MINFILE” as well as an additional gold/silver in soil-geochemical sample anomaly. Exploration within the project boundaries itself dates back to the early 1900‘s.

The noted MINFILE showing encompassed within the St. John Ridge project is located in the central area of the claim. The showing consists of a 6.5 to 10 foot wide quartz vein developed by 5 trenches and 4 shallow shafts. A rock sample from a trench that exposed the vein returned 0.26 oz/ton gold (Au) and 2.97 oz/ton silver (Ag).

Geochemical soil sample surveys carried out over the area in 1970 and 1984 located two anomalous zones that have an approximate 180o strike. One of the anomalous zones correlates directly with the known strike/surface trace of the vein. The second anomalous zone is a coincident gold, silver, lea, zinc and copper in soil anomaly located approximately 125 feet to the west of, and running parallel to, the known mineralized vein.

Further exploration work designed to test for the down-dip extension or causative source of the mineralized zones is recommended. A program consisting of detailed geological mapping, prospecting, magnetometer (geophysical) survey, rock and soil sampling is recommended. The recommended budget for this work is US$35,000.

LOCATION AND ACCESS

The St. John Ridge Project is located approximately 180 miles east of Vancouver, near Beaverdell (Figures 1 and 2). The property is located in the Greenwood Mining Division, and is centered at approximately 49o30'30“N latitude and 119o00‘W longitude on BC TRIM Maps 082E55 & 082E56. Beaverdell lies 6 miles to the south, Kelowna is located 30 miles to the northwest and Rock Creek and the junction of Highways 3 and 33 are 30 miles to the south.

The claim is best accessed via Beaverdell by going north on Hwy 33 for 3 miles then turning east on the Beaverdell Creek Main Logging road. Continue east for approximately 3 miles until the junction with a secondary logging road that heads north and follows St. John Creek valley. This road runs through the western sections of the Property. A network of secondary gravel roads and trails branch off from the St. John Creek Road and provide good access to most other parts of the property.

PHYSIOGRAPHY, VEGETATION AND CLIMATE

The Property is located within the Monashee Mountains of the Southern Interior Physiographic Region and straddles St. John Ridge. Elevations within the claims range from 3,500 feet to 4,400 feet. The lower elevation of 3,500 feet is located at the southwestern area of the property within the eastern side of the St. John Creek drainage. The highest elevation of 4,400 feet is located at the northeast corner of the property on St. John Ridge.

Slopes within the claim area are moderate to steep throughout the property. Vegetation consists mainly of fir; larch and pine, much of it mature second growth. Some of the area has been recently logged or burned over. There is relatively little underbrush, and there are sections of open grassy lands. Soil cover is extensive, with the soil cover being 4-5 feet thick in the St. John Creek valley bottom and generally less than one-foot deep at higher elevations. Rock exposures make up about15-20% of the Property surface area.

The local climate features warm summers and cool winters. The Beaverdell area is fairly dry in the summers, although not as dry as the Okanagan valley to the west. Average yearly precipitation is 20 inches. A snow pack of 3-5 feet begins to accumulate in November and lingers in places into May. The recommended field season for initial phases of exploration is from early May to late November. Drilling and underground development can be carried out on a year-round basis with the aid of a bulldozer to keep access roads snow-free.

Ample water is available from St. John Creek and Beaverdell Creek to support all phases of exploration and development.

HISTORY

The St. John Ridge Project is located on the northern edge of the historic Beaverdell Mining Camp. Exploration in the area dates to the 1880‘s when silver was discovered in 1887 on Wallace Mountain and placer gold was discovered in several creeks located north of the project during the same period. Silver production on Wallace Mountain commenced in 1901. The Wallace Mountain area has undergone nearly continuous exploration since the original discoveries, and the Highland Bell Silver Mine saw continuous production for 76 years (1913 to 1989). At its closure in 1989, the Highland Bell Mine had produced over 46 million ounces of Silver (Ag), 12,500 tons of Lead (Pb) and 15,000 tons of Zinc (Zn) as well as minor amounts of Cadmium (Cd), Copper (Cu) and Gold (Au). The Wellington Mine, also on Wallace Mountain produced approximately 1,500,000 ounces of silver between 1901 and 1953. Dozens of other, independently owned, small mines located within the camp produced small amounts of silver, lead, zinc and gold during this period.

Historic records indicate that placer gold was mined in the late 1880‘s from a creek originating within the northwest area of the claims. Exploration within the project boundaries itself dates back to 1901. In 1901 and 1903 prospecting and trenching was carried out on the St. John Ridge areas of the project.

There is no public record of exploration activity occurring within the project boundaries between 1903 and 1969. However, exploration programs conducted in the 1970‘s and 1980‘s located numerous trenches and pits, located within the project area, that were most likely excavated during this period.

In 1970 DeKalb Mining Corporation completed a soil geochemical survey over a portion of the northeastern area of the project.

In 1971 Husky Oil Ltd. carried out ground magnetic and soil geochemical surveys within the northern area of the project.

In 1984 Talisman Silver Mines Inc. completed an exploration program consisting of the emplacement of a small control grid and the collection and analysis of 320 soil geochemical samples within the project.

Addition information regarding the property history is provided in the “Property Geology and Mineralization” section of this report.

REGIONAL GEOLOGY

The area is within the Omineca Crystalline Belt; a NW trending belt dominated by plutonic and high-grade metamorphic rocks. Regional geology is presented in Figure 3, the source of which is G.S.C. Map 1736A by Templeman-Kluit.

Rock units present in the immediate area of the project include:

Jurassic age Nelson Plutonics comprised primarily of quartz diorite, monzonite and granodiorite but also include greenstones, amphibolites, mafic schists, meta-wackes and lesser limestone of the Carboniferous and older Anarchist Group. This sedimentary and volcanic package occurs as isolated rafts or roof pendants surrounded by the younger intrusive.

The Valhalla Intrusions (granite and granodiorite) of Jurassic-Cretaceous age are distinguished from the Nelson Plutonics by their porphyritic nature and general lack of foliation.

The Coryell Group is Eocene porphyritic felsic intrusions that occur as plugs and dykes in the area. These trachytes, andesites and lesser tuff and shale interbeds outcrop in erosional remnants on the property and in fault bounded outliers throughout the Okanagan region.

Fine-grained mafic dykes are the youngest intrusive rocks in the area, and are related to regionally significant Miocene plateau basalts. Several dykes occur within the property.

PROPERTY GEOLOGY AND MINERALIZATION

The only source of property geological information available is the above noted regional geological map by Templeman-Kluit. Some specific geological information/notes, directly associated with known mineralization within the property, has been found and is included within each of the mineral showing descriptions below.

The following property geological information is based on Templeman-Kluit’s regional mapping (Figure 3).

The St. John Creek is primarily underlain by Nelson Plutonic Rocks which are covered by a thin layer of alluvial material (gravel, sand and soil).

The British Columbia Geological Survey/Department of Mines mineral inventory file “BCDM MINFILE” notes that a designated mineral showing occurs within the St. John Ridge Project area as follows:

St.     John Ridge Vein: this showing is located within the central portion of the project. The showing consists of a quartz vein hosted by limestone and quartzite of the Carboniferous-Permian Anarchist Group and has been developed by 5 trenches and 4 shallow shafts.

Mineralization includes pyrite, pyrrrhotite and chalcopyrite in a gangue of quartz-epidote-calcite. The vein is reported to be 6.5 to 10 feet wide. It strikes 190o and dips to the west; no dip angle is given and has a known strike length of 1,350 feet. Early reports refer to a massive body of arsenical iron pyrite containing gold and silver values and underlain by iron-stained barren quartz. The Minister of Mines Annual Report 1901 reports gold values averaging 0.02 oz. /ton and silver values of 2.97 oz/ton. A rock sample from a trench that exposed the vein returned 0.26 oz/ton Au.

Geochemical surveys carried out over the area in 1970 and 1984 located several weakly anomalous zones that have an approximate 180o strike. One of the anomalous zones correlates directly with the know strike of the vein.

A coincident gold, silver, lead, zinc and copper soil anomaly is located 125 feet to the west of, and runs parallel to, the known mineralized vein.

CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS

The St. John Ridge Project contains two zones of gold, silver, copper, lead and zinc mineralization.

The limited exploration work conducted within the property to date has focused on the known mineral showings themselves. This work did locate two (2) gold, silver and copper geochemical anomalies, coincident with high-grade rock samples from old trenches that require follow-up.

Modern exploration techniques and mineralization theories should be implemented to test for a larger body of mineralization that is thought to be the causative source for the numerous mineral showings within the project area.

The results of previous work carried out on the St. John Ridge indicates that there is strong potential for the discovery of additional gold, silver, copper, lead and zinc mineralization within the project area. It is therefore recommended that the following steps be carried out to further test the mineralization within the property:

1.

Emplace a control grid with a surveyed base line over the entire property;


2.

Conduct detailed geological mapping and prospecting over the entire property –tying in all showing locations, roads/trails, geological data and samples to the control grid;


3.

Complete a magnetometer survey over the entire property;


4.

Complete mechanical trenching along the strike of the known mineralized zones. Detailed geological mapping and rock sampling should be carried out in each trench; and


5.

Diamond Drilling should be carried out along the projected strike of and down dip of the main mineralized zones.


NOTE: Stages 1 - 3 are recommended for Phase I exploration Program and stages 4 and 5 are recommended for the Phase II exploration program.

A table detailing the costs of the Phase I exploration program is located on the following page. <center>10</center>

CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS (Continued)

The aforementioned recommendation not withstanding, the following two-phase exploration for the St. John Ridge Project is recommended:

PHASE I

The Phase I program will require approximately 3 weeks completing and will consisting of grid emplacement, detailed geological mapping, prospecting, rock and soiling sampling and geophysical magnetometer survey. An additional 3 weeks will be required to complete analysis of samples, data compilation and interpretation, drafting and report writing. Results gained from the program will lead to a better understanding of, the location of and controls of, mineralization at known showings as at any new showings and/or anomalous areas discovered as a result of the Phase I program.
