About Eastfield Resources:

Since its inception in 1987, Eastfield has utilized a successful
business strategy that involves securing third party exploration
financing on the majority of its projects. At present, Eastfield has
six projects located in British Columbia and one in Nevada. The Okeover
project is currently optioned by Prophecy Resource Corp. (TSX-V: PCY).
Following the spin-off, Eastfield will continue to develop its
remaining properties as well as seek new opportunities such as the
recently acquired Zymo copper and gold property in northwestern BC.

About Lysander:

Since 1992, when it recognized the potential of the area, Lysander has
assembled a significant land package within the Omenica Mining District
of British Columbia. Its focus has been on the Hogem Batholith and the
Duckling Creek complex, a large alkaline intrusive complex. Following
the spin-off of the Lorraine-Jajay Property, Lysander will continue to
hold the adjoining Pinchi, Descend and Osilinka/CAT properties.

The large Pinchi Property is believed to include a significant section,
to the north and west of the Lorraine-Jajay Property, of the Duckling
Creek complex. Exploration of the Osilinka/CAT Property has been
farmed out to a junior exploration company, which has an option to earn
a 50% interest. Following the spin-off, Lysander will have
approximately $850,000 of working capital. It will seek new
opportunities as well as develop the potential of its remaining
properties.
