About the Company

The Rambler property had been a former underground copper and gold producing property that ceased
production when the deposit reached a then third party property boundary. This neighbouring property
was subsequently consolidated before being brought into the Company. The Company now owns a 100%
interest in the property.

The principal activity of the Group is carrying out development and exploration on the Rambler
Property, a mineral exploration property located on Newfoundland and Labrador's Baie Verte Peninsula.
