Property Background
The Crowrea Project (discovered by the joint-venture
in 1995) is a mineral rich occurrence in a northeast trending
dyke zone which required additional discoveries in the area before becoming economical. The discovery was contained in a trench which returned .209% MoS 2 over 38 meters. Subsequent drilling returned up to .273% MoS 2 over 39 meters in hole#95-03-09 and 4.6 metres grading 3.390% MoS 2 in hole#96-14-56.
UPDATES:
Jan.28, 2009 - Resource Estimate Completed For Empress Molybdenum Property; Indicated Resource is calculated to be 3,996,155 tonnes at a grade of 0.0605% Mo; Inferred Resource is 3,498,000 tonnes at a grade of 0.0619% Mo
June 23, 2008 - Drilling Complete on Empress Molybdenum Property; 2007 and 2008 programs include 19 holes drilled totaling 3,493 meters

The 26-hole diamond drilling program in 2006 reinforced those initial findings with returns up to .292% Mo over 10.6 metres, in hole #05-06 in the Webbsite zone. It also seemed apparent that only a small portion of the mineralized structure had been drilled to date.
The acquisition in 2006 of the adjoining Empress Claims and in 2007 of HP Claims greatly increases the total number of potential molybdenum occurrences within the Crowrea Molybdenum Camp.
