On receipt of the TSX Venture Exchange approval to close this first tranche, the company will issue 812,500 flow-through units at 12 cents and 1,167,500 non-flow-through units at 10 cents.

Each FT unit consists of one flow-through common share of the company and one-half of one common share purchase warrant, with each full warrant exercisable to purchase an additional common share of the company for 15 cents for 24 months from the date of issue.

Each NFT unit consists of one common share of the company of the company and one-half of common share purchase warrant, with each full warrant exercisable to purchase an additional common share of the company for 15 cents for 24 months from the date of issue.

Subject to exchange approval, cash finders' fees in the amount of $5,055 will be paid, and 12,000 broker warrants will be issued.

The first tranche of the financing has participation from three insiders, subscribing for a total of $41,000, which portion of the financing is a related-party transaction as such term is defined under Multilateral Instrument 61-101 (Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions). The company is relying on exemptions from the formal valuation requirement of MI-61-101 under sections 5.5(a) and 5.5(b) of MI 61-101 in respect of the transaction as the fair market value of the transaction, insofar as it involves the interested party, is not more than 25 per cent of the company's market capitalization.

All securities issued pursuant to the financing will be subject to a four-month hold.

The net proceeds from the sale of FT units will be used to finance the company's exploration program at its Silverknife and Silver Hart properties in the Rancheria silver district (Yukon/British Columbia). The net proceeds from the sale of NFT units will also be used for general working capital.
