The IP survey (25 km) is planned to start the first week of October and will cover a 1.4 kilometre by 1 kilometre gold in soil anomaly. Geophysical targets identified from this work will be drill tested in the later part of 2010 or early in 2011. Maues Project The Company has reviewed the results from their recently completed exploration and drill program (2,503 m in 14 holes) on the Rosa de Maio property, one of four properties that comprise the Maues Project. Given the negative results, the Company has decided not to continue with the option agreement and has informed the project vendor.
