Review of 2012

The management of Woodjam Copper is encouraged by the results of the aggressive 2012 drilling program and in particular the drilling results from the Deerhorn Zone (see news releases dated Aug. 7 and Oct.22, 2012 and Jan. 21, 2013). In 2012, 36,623 metres were drilled in 114 holes. The 2012 drilling program focused primarily on definition and expansion drilling on the gold-copper bearing Deerhorn, Southeast, Takom, Megabuck Zones as well as the newly discovered Three firs Zone (see table below). The Southeast zone has a NI 43-101 compliant inferred resource of 146.5 million tonnes grading 0.33% copper with accessory gold; (see news release dated March 1, 2012).
