Stage #1: A 525 foot drift to the southwest with Drill Station #1 at
the end.  Drilling here indicated lode structure which directed the
Company to go west.  (See news release August 27, 2009)

Stage #2: A 300 foot drift (See news release October 7, 2009) westward
into the footwall of the Main Lode structure and was recently
completed.  Drifting in the footwall, or below the lode, will allow the
Company to use gravity in the removal of mineralized material should
there be any identified within the lode.  Drill Station #2 is currently
being cut at the end of this drift and diamond drilling will take place
in the New Year.  Drilling from Station #2 will be towards the Main
Lode structure to determine if mineralization is evident.  The initial
program, approximately 2000 feet planned, is expected to be completed
by mid-March.

Stage #3: While diamond drilling is taking place at Station #2, a 300
foot extension to the Stage #2 drift will commence with a diamond drill
station cut at the end.  This drift will continue on in a westward
direction unless the lode structure alters.  Work is planned to be
completed near the end of February.  Drifting may be stopped in the
event that mineralized zones are located through diamond drilling from
Station #2.

The "Main Lode" structure is more than 8 kilometers long, extending
east from Silverton on Slocan Lake to Sandon through the "Silver Ridge"
of the Selkirk Mountains some 50 kilometers north of Nelson, B.C.

The Company holds the ground for approximately 1.5 km to the west of
this productive zone, to within 0.5 km of the Mammoth Mine.  This
program represents the first attempt since the early 1990s to explore
west towards the Mammoth, Standard and the other major "Main Lode"
producers.

The Silvana Mine is one of 29 former producers staked or acquired by
the Company within the Slocan Camp.  Other assets include extensive
exploration lands and a fully permitted 100-tonne-per-day (TPD)
flotation mill.

The Silvana Mine produced approximately 8 million ounces of silver and
more than 30,000 tons each of lead and zinc from 550,000 tons of
mill-feed mined from a 1.5-kilometer section of the "Main Lode" under
Silver Ridge. This section was explored, developed and mined almost
continuously from 1970 to 1993 by the Silmonac Syndicate and its
successors, including Kam-Kotia Mines Limited, Silvana Mines Inc.,
Dickenson Mines Limited and Treminco Resources Ltd. Sporadic mining has
since been conducted by other companies, including Klondike Silver.
