| History of the CELESTE Project |
|
Small scale artisinal copper mining activity has been carried out in the Celeste area since the early 1900’s. In the period 1994 to 2002, Cominco, (later Teck Cominco Limited), Phelps Dodge and Atna conducted exploration activities at the Celeste Property, including the drilling of 18 RC holes for 4,161 m and 16 DD holes for 4,639 m. No resource estimates were completed.

| Geology of the CELESTE Project |
|
|
Mineralization at Celeste is of IOCG type. It occurs as disseminations of copper oxides and sulphides within favourable units with thicknesses of 2 to 30 m, particularly volcaniclastic sandstones, vesicular andesites, and volcanic breccia units as well as structurally controlled swarms of veins and veinlets.
