to announce that it has closed the first tranche of a non-brokered private
placement ("Private Placement") of 10,577,631 units ("Units") at $0.38 per Unit

legislation. The net proceeds from the Private Placement will be used for
permitting and feasibility studies with respect to the Bokan Mountain property
in Alaska.


The Company has received additional subscriptions in the amount of approximately
$2,537,729, which it expects to close in one or more further tranches of the
Private Placement on the same terms. The completion of subsequent tranches of
the Private Placement is subject to certain customary conditions, including, but
not limited to, the execution of definitive subscription agreements with
subscribers, the receipt of funds and the receipt of all necessary regulatory
approvals, including the approval of the TSX Venture Exchange.


The Private Placement is non-brokered; however, the Company may pay finder's
fees in accordance with the rules and policies of the TSX Venture Exchange. No
finder's fees were paid in connection with the first tranche.
