The Company has initiated the compilation, evaluation, and interpretation of historical exploration data generated on the New York Canyon property including verification of the historical mineral resource estimate. It is anticipated that this work will continue through the fall and winter. The Company will also be initiating a ground exploration program which will include geological mapping, bedrock sampling, and soil sampling. The field work will initially focus on the gold and silver potential in the northern claims which are contiguous with the past producing Santa Fe gold mine property. The Santa Fe mine is reported to have produced in excess of 350,000 ounces Au and 700,000 ounces Ag prior to closure in 1994 (Victoria Gold Corp.: www.vitgoldcorp.com )
