The program is in accordance with the recommendations of the technical report prepared for the Company in respect of the Project which is available on www.Sedar.com, and was performed by
The Company carried out a field exploration program on the Isla Property in 2022 that included the collection of 402 soil samples taken from two surveyed grids, 5 rock samples, 4 petrographic samples, and 17.933 kilometers of ground magnetometer surveys. Soil samples were collected from the
The soil grids were successful in expanding the area of the soil anomalies in all directions. Rock sampling returned values of 630 ppm and 2310 ppm Cu. Analysis of rock samples from bedrock in the area of anomalous copper in soil anomalies consists of amygdaloidal basalt with variable (0.1-5% by volume) quartz-calcite-chlorite alteration, sparse disseminated and fracture filling pyrite-pyrrhotite, and trace amounts of copper bearing sulphide minerals such as chalcopyrite, bornite, and chalcocite. In the LL Grid area, mineralization occurs adjacent to northwest trending faulting along the
The vuggy low-sulphidation hydrothermal systems have resulted in vein and/or stockwork style mineralization. This fault is interpreted as being a part of an extensive series of faults related to the emplacement of the Eocene-Oligocene Mount Washington Plutonic Suite which host the Domineer & Mount Washington Copper polymetallic mineral deposits located approximately 3 kilometers south of the Isla Property. Silt samples taken on the property have returned values of up to 325.3 ppb Au and 2418.7 Cu. Soil samples have returned up to 996.5 ppm Au and 409 ppm Cu. The 2022 ground magnetometer survey identified two significant areas of interest that should be followed up due to positive (>54,000 nT) anomalies. Additionally, the 2022 survey identified a northwest trending, 850 meter long by 50-meter wide negative
