This document contains "forward-looking information" and "forward-looking
statements" (together, "forward-looking statements") within the meaning of
applicable securities legislation, which are made as of the date of this
document or the document(s) referred to herein. Statements that express
predictions, expectations, beliefs, plans, projections, objectives, assumptions
or future events or performance (often, but not always, using words or phrases
such as "expects", "anticipates", "plans", "projects", "estimates", "intends",
"strategy", "goals", "objectives" or variations thereof or stating that certain
actions, events or results "may", "could", "would", "might" or "will" be taken,
occur or be achieved, or the negative of any of these terms and similar
expressions) are not statements of historical fact and may be forward-looking
statements. Forward-looking statements include, without limitation, statements
with respect to: the amount of mineral reserves and mineral resources; the
amount of future production over any period; net present value and internal
rates of return of the proposed mining operation; capital costs; operating
costs; strip ratios and mining rates; and mine life. The forward-looking
statements are made based upon certain assumptions which, if untrue, could cause
the actual results, performances or achievements of the Company to be materially
different from future results, performances or achievements expressed or implied
by the forward-looking statements. 

These assumptions include, without limitation: the price of gemstone products
produced; anticipated costs; the presence of and continuity of gemstones at
modeled grades and values; the capacities of various machinery and equipment;
the availability of personnel, machinery and equipment at estimated prices;
exchange rates; appropriate discount rates; tax rates applicable to the proposed
mining operation; financing structure and costs; anticipated mining losses and
dilution; gemstone recovery rates; reasonable contingency requirements; and
receipt of regulatory approvals on acceptable terms. By their very nature,
forward-looking statements involve inherent risks and uncertainties that could
cause actual results, performances or achievements to differ materially from
those in the forward-looking statements. These include, without limitation:
price volatility, discrepancies between actual and estimated production, mineral
reserves and resources and metallurgical recoveries, mining operational and
development risks, regulatory restrictions (including environmental regulatory
restrictions and liability), activities by governmental authorities (including
changes in taxation), currency fluctuations, the speculative nature of gemstone
exploration, the global economic climate, dilution, share price volatility,
competition, loss of key employees; additional funding requirements and
defective title to mineral claims or property). This list is not exhaustive. See
also, for example, the risks disclosed in the Company's other disclosure
documents filed at www.sedar.com, including, without limitation, those disclosed
in the Company's management's discussion & analysis. The Company expressly
disclaims any intention or obligation to update or revise any forward-looking
statements, except as otherwise required by applicable securities legislation.
