and development of the Elmtree Gold property in New Brunswick, and for general
working capital purposes. All securities issued pursuant to the Offering,
including the Compensation Options issued to the Agents, are subject to a four
(4) month statutory hold commencing from closing. The Offering is subject to TSX
Venture Exchange acceptance of requisite regulatory filings.


"With this financing Castle is in an excellent position to aggressively drill

to develop a significant NI 43-101 copper and precious metals resource at the
