Cautionary Note Regarding
Forward-Looking Statements and Information
This news release contains "forward-looking
statements" and "forward-looking information" (collectively,
"forward-looking statements") within the meaning of Canadian and
United States securities legislation, including the United States
Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. All statements,
other than statements of historical fact, are forward-looking
statements. Forward-looking statements in this news release relate
to, among other things: the final terms of the Offering, the
anticipated use of proceeds of the Offering and expected timing of
the completion of the Offering. These forward-looking statements
reflect the Company's current views with respect to future events
and are necessarily based upon a number of assumptions that, while
considered reasonable by the Company, are inherently subject to
significant operational, business, economic and regulatory
uncertainties and contingencies. These assumptions include, among
other things: conditions in general economic and financial markets;
accuracy of assay results; geological interpretations from drilling
results, timing and amount of capital expenditures; performance of
available laboratory and other related services; future operating
costs; the historical basis for current estimates of potential
quantities and grades of target zones; the availability of skilled
labour and no labour related disruptions at any of the Company's
operations; no unplanned delays or interruptions in scheduled
activities; all necessary permits, licenses and regulatory
approvals for operations are received in a timely manner; the
ability to secure and maintain title and ownership to properties
and the surface rights necessary for operations; and the Company's
ability to comply with environmental, health and safety laws. The
foregoing list of assumptions is not exhaustive. The Company
cautions the reader that forward-looking statements involve known
and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause
actual results and developments to differ materially from those
expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements contained
in this news release and the Company has made assumptions and
estimates based on or related to many of these factors. Such
factors include, without limitation: the timing and content of work
programs; results of exploration activities and development of
mineral properties; the interpretation and uncertainties of
drilling results and other geological data; receipt, maintenance
and security of permits and mineral property titles; environmental
and other regulatory risks; project costs overruns or unanticipated
costs and expenses; availability of funds; failure to delineate
potential quantities and grades of the target zones based on
historical data; general market and industry conditions; and those
factors identified under the caption "Risks Factors" in the
Company's most recent Annual Information Form.
Forward-looking statements are based on the
expectations and opinions of the Company's management on the date
the statements are made. The assumptions used in the preparation of
such statements, although considered reasonable at the time of
preparation, may prove to be imprecise and, as such, readers are
cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking
statements, which speak only as of the date the statements were
made. The Company undertakes no obligation to update or revise any
forward-looking statements included in this news release if these
beliefs, estimates and opinions or other circumstances should
change, except as otherwise required by applicable law.
