The Company cautions that forward-looking statements are based on the beliefs, estimates and opinions of the Company's management on the date the statements are made and they involve a number of risks and uncertainties. Consequently, there can be no assurances that such statements will prove to be accurate and actual results and future events could differ materially from those anticipated in such statements. Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to: the possibility that the TSX Venture Exchange will not approve the Financing; the lack of investor interest in the Financing; general business, economic, competitive, political and social uncertainties; the actual results of current exploration activities; timing and availability of external financing on acceptable terms; future prices for precious metals and other minerals; accidents, labour disputes and other risks of the mining industry; and delays in obtaining governmental approvals, required financing or in the completion of activities, as well as those risks identified in the Company's filings with the Canadian securities regulators, which may be viewed at www.sedar.com. Readers are cautioned that forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance or events and, accordingly are cautioned not to put undue reliance on forward-looking statements due to the inherent uncertainty of such statements. The forward-looking statements included in this press release are made as of the date hereof and the Company disclaims any intention or obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as expressly required by applicable securities legislation.
