The goal for this campaign was to validate induced polarization anomalies obtained during a geophysical survey completed previously. This goal was reached with success.

Drill hole DES-11-01 (272 meters) has intersected intense hematization zones inside a somewhat deformed granitic intrusive with an equigranular texture. An altered zone located between 161 and 175 meters, containing fine disseminated cubic pyrite has returned an anomalous gold value of 0.26 g/t Au over 13 meters including 0.80 g/t Au over 1 meter. The presence of this type of mineralization on the property reveals a probable potential for a low grade porphyritic system. (See map: http://media3.marketwire.com/docs/Typhoon_map_0517.pdf)

Drill holes DES-11-02 (336 meters) and DES-11-03 (309 meters) have intersected a gabbroic intrusion mineralized in pyrite-pyrrhotite and chalcopyrite. The presence of fine disseminated mineralization inside these drill holes explains the induced polarization anomalies.

Drill hole DES-11-04 (405 meters) has intersected a sericite, chlorite and an intense quartz shear system. Some anomalous gold values, such as one of 0.63 g/t Au over 1 meter, were obtained inside this new major structure (more than 70 meters thick) corresponding to an important induced polarization anomaly.

In summary, the drilling campaign allowed the discovery of new zones with previously unknown auriferous potential and those will be evaluated.

A second drilling campaign is currently underway on the Aiguebelle-Goldfields Property, owned at 51% by Typhoon and at 49% by Agnico-Eagle Mines Ltd. Results will be released upon receipt.

QUALITY CONTROL

All drill cores are oriented using "Corientr" tool in order to measure their geological structures. Cores are sawn in half, with one part kept as a control and the other being analysed. Assays are performed with standard fire assay procedures and atomic absorption finish. The assaying is performed by ALS Chemex of Val d'Or.
