development activities on the Company's mineral properties and for general
corporate purposes.


The Global Offering is anticipated to close on or about June 26, 2008 and
remains subject to certain conditions, including satisfactory due diligence by
the Agents and the receipt of all required regulatory and other acceptances,
including the acceptance of the Toronto Stock Exchange (TSX).

CAUTIONARY NOTE TO U.S. INVESTORS

We advise U.S. investors that this news release uses terms which are not
recognized by the United States Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"),
including "mineral resources", "measured resources", "indicated resources" and
"inferred resources". The estimation of measured and indicated resources
involves greater uncertainty as to their existence and economic feasibility than
the estimation of proven and probable reserves. U.S. investors are cautioned not
to assume that mineral resources in these categories will be converted to
reserves. The estimation of inferred resources involves far greater uncertainty
as to their existence and economic viability than the estimation of other
categories of resources. U.S. investors are cautioned not to assume that
estimates of inferred mineral resources exist, are economically mineable, or
will be upgraded into measured or indicated mineral resources. U.S. investors
are cautioned not to assume that mineral resources in any of these categories
will be converted into reserves.
