Kiska Enters Agreement to Acquire 100% Interest in Midlothian Project - Seite 2

The Project is located 80 km west-southwest of Kirkland Lake, Ontario and 25 km west-southwest of Matachewan, Ontario. The west-southwest trending, 250 km long Cadillac-Larder Lake Break ("CLLB") is interpreted to pass through the southeast portion of the property. This major structure provides a regional locus for numerous gold deposits and hosts more than 100 mines and significant gold prospects, extends from well east of Val d' Or, Quebec to Matachewan in Ontario, and probably extends further to the southwest. A subparallel structure to the CLLB has also been interpreted on the property, and several westerly trending splays off the latter structure have been inferred. The property contains Archean intermediate and felsic volcanic rocks intruded by east-trending mafic to ultramafic linear intrusions, with Timiskaming Conglomerate in the northeastern corner. The Archean geology of the eastern portion of the property, including the CLLB, is concealed by an unknown thickness of Proterozoic sediments.
