exercisable into a common share of the company at $ 0.40 for a period of
24 months following the closing date.
Gary Thompson, Chairman and CEO of Brixton, commented on the offering
�Brixton is very pleased to add MineralFields
Group as an Institutional Investor. This is an important milestone in the
growth of Brixton and we look forward to working with MineralFields
Group as we develop our Thorn project in Northern British Columbia�
The Thorn property is a high sulphidation
silver-gold-copper project covering 19,000-hectares. Originally a Kennco discovery in 1959, it has had approximately $5
million in exploration spent to date, which included 6,386 meters of
drilling and numerous geophysical and geochemical surveys.
Gary Thompson added �We see many similarities with other high sulphidation metal deposits around the world
including La Bodega in Colombia, Lepanto in Philippines and El Indio in
Chile which all share comparable characteristics to Thorn. We see Thorn
as a high-grade Ag-Au, Cu mineralized vein system forming as a series of
veins as parallel, sheeted and or clusters of veins.�
Brixton now has a phase one budget for Thorn of about $1.3 million, which
will mainly focus on drilling at the Talisker
Zone. Toby Hughes, VP of Exploration, commented on the upcoming year �We
are very optimistic about this years
program at Thorn. Previous operators have found some excellent numbers
with high grades on many of the zones.� Drilling is anticipated to begin
early June 2011.
Toby Hughes, P. Geo., is a Qualified Person as defined by the National
Instrument 43-101.
A summary of results is presented below, (previously reported in the
NI-43-101 Report on the Thorn property available on both Brixton�s
