forward-looking information reflects the Company's current beliefs and
is based on information currently available to the Company and on
assumptions the Company believes are reasonable. These assumptions
include, but are not limited to, the actual results of exploration
projects being equivalent to or better than estimated results in
technical reports or prior exploration results, and future costs and
expenses being based on historical costs and expenses, adjusted for
inflation. Forward-looking information is subject to known and unknown

its projects; general business, economic, competitive, political and
social uncertainties; commodity prices; the actual results of current
exploration and development or operational activities; competition;
changes in project parameters as plans continue to be refined;
accidents and other risks inherent in the mining industry; lack of

changes in legislation, including environmental legislation, affecting
the Company; timing and availability of external financing on
acceptable terms; conclusions of economic evaluations; and lack of
qualified, skilled labour or loss of key individuals. Although the
Company has attempted to identify important factors that could cause
actual results to differ materially from those contained in
forward-looking information, there may be other factors that cause
results not to be as anticipated, estimated or intended. Accordingly,
readers should not place undue reliance on forward-looking information.
The Company does not undertake to update any forward-looking
information, except in accordance with applicable securities laws.
