pleased to announce that it has closed the first tranche of a
non-brokered private placement announced on April 13, 2012, by the
issuance of 8,133,227 units at a price of $0.15 per unit to raise
gross proceeds of $1,219,984.05. Each unit consists of one
flow-through common share in the capital of the Company and one-half
of a non-transferable share purchase warrant, each whole warrant
entitling the holder to purchase one additional non-flow-through
common share in the capital of the Company on or before April 23,
2013, at a purchase price of $0.175 per share.

In connection with certain subscriptions of the private placement, the

warrants to purchase 586,658 non-flow-through common shares in the
capital of the Company, exercisable on or before April 23, 2013 at a
purchase price of $0.175 per share. The cash commission was paid from

from the sale of the Units.

All securities issued by the Company pursuant to the private placement
are subject to a hold period of four months and one day and cannot be
resold until August 25, 2012.

Proceeds of the Private Placement will be used to incur expenditures
