  • the Company conducted a geochemical sampling program consisting of 671 samples focusing on two primary targets: the MB Zone and the Camp Zone;
  • Underground sampling was completed on all drifts and raises on the upper two levels of the mine;
  • the British Columbia Mines Act Permit for Mining and Reclamation at Treasure Mountain and the British Columbia Mines Act Permit Amendment for construction and operation of a 200 TPD mill in Merritt were received in May 2012;
  • 33 tonnes of direct ship ore from the East Zone was delivered to a smelter under contract in May 2012, with a provisional payment received;
  • airborne surveys were completed on both Treasure Mountain and the Merritt property in July 2012;
  • all of the substantial mill components have been delivered to site and the commissioning process has begun; and
  • an equity financing was completed in various tranches between June 29, 2012, and August 2012, for aggregate gross proceeds of $9,650,079.

I would also like to personally thank our directors, officers, employees, partners, and contractors for making all of this possible. I look forward to another very successful year."
