Two pieces of float from a hydrothermal breccia system on the Boer property were discovered in November 2014. Assay results from the float samples averaged 0.548 gpt gold, 11.7 gpt silver, and 0.121% molybdenum. The float is believed to be from near the source of the mineralization. Previous exploration on the Boer property identified areas with anomalous metals in pine bark samples and a large hydrothermal breccia body containing anomalous molybdenum, copper and silver values. The property shows potential for the discovery of a large gold-silver-molybdenum-copper breccia or porphyry deposit.

NEW
DISCOVERY
In November 2014, within an area of
Lodgepole Pine outer bark samples
anomalous in metals, two adjacent
pieces of angular, near-source float of
hydrothermal breccia with multiple
stages of stockwork veining with
average 0.548 gpt Au, 11.7 gpt Ag
and 0.121 % Mo were discovered by
Les Allen, Prospector. The float is
believed to be close to source.
Target Gold-silver-molybdenum-copper breccia/porphyry.
Location The road accessible Boer property is located adjacent to Highway 16, and
centered nine kilometers northeast of the resource town of Burns Lake, B.C.
UTM Zone 10N: 6017000N/330000E, NTS maps: 093K/04 and 093K/05,
Omineca Mining Division.
Access Property access is via Hwy 16, 20 kilometers east of Burns Lake then north by
a Mainline logging road network (Augier and Co-op) to and around the
Property. The topography is gentle relief typical of the B.C. Interior Plateau,
and has been extensively clear-cut logged. The Property is located near
excellent infrastructure including the resource town of Burns Lake, and related
highways, grid power, natural gas pipeline and airport.
Land Ownership The Property consists of 21 BCMTO mineral tenures covering 9,730ha,
registered ownership is John A. Chapman (50%) and Gerald G. Carlson on
behalf of KGE Management Ltd. (50%) (the “Owners”). The Property is
available for Option to Purchase.
History The mineral potential at Boer was first identified by John Chapman who
recognized highly anomalous silver in lake sediments (up to 2,000 ppb) from
the Geoscience BC Quest West Project conducted from 2008 to present. This
large silver lake sediments anomaly is ranked in the +95th
percentile from RGS
samples covering a vast area of the B.C. Interior Plateau. In addition, the
same sediment samples were anomalous in molybdenum, copper and mercury.
Structural Study: Gerald Carlson, PhD (geology) conducted a structural
study in 2013 utilizing topography and government airborne magnetics and
regional gravity surveys. Several magnetic anomalies underlie the Boer
property, likely related to intrusive rocks, and interpreted lineaments suggest
both major and secondary structures intersecting within the property.
Pine Bark Geochemistry: In order to determine the geochemical character of
bedrock beneath the extensive glacial till cover on the property (<1 percent
outcrop), the Owners conducted pine bark and till geochemical sampling in
2. Boer Mineral Property, Fact Sheet, December 15, 2014 Page 2 of 9
2012, 2013 and 2014 along logging roads, the natural gas pipeline and clear-
cuts. Several areas with anomalous metals (Ag, Au, Mo, Cu, Zn) were defined.
These biogeochemical surveys were encouraged by Colin Dunn to
complement his 2001 GSC Regional survey (GSC Open File 2001-09) from
Burns Lake to Vanderhoof and south to Kenny Dam (724 Lodgepole outer
bark samples), where the highest copper values occur on the present Boer
property. The Owners’ survey confirmed and enhanced the Dunn anomaly.
Till Geochemistry: In 2014, the Owners conducted a till sampling survey,
using an auger, along logging roads and the natural gas pipeline (just outside
ROW). No metal anomalies of interest were defined because of the
heterogeneous nature of the thin till overburden.
Prospecting: In 2012, the owners discovered a hydrothermal breccia body
(the Boer Breccia, now a MinFile occurrence, mineralized with disseminated
pyrite and anomalous in Mo (182.4 ppm), Cu (279.5 ppm) and Ag (3.4 ppm)
in a mixed host rock of K-spar granite and hornblende diorite. In 2014,
following up on one of the strongest pine bark anomalies (Ag, Mo, Cu), two
angular float pieces of hydrothermal breccia, mineralized with finely
disseminated pyrite and molybdenite and with multiple stages of stockwork
veining and alteration, were discovered ~2 km east of the Boer breccia. Two
analyses from these samples averaged 0.548 gpt Au, 11.7 gpt Ag and 0.121%
Mo.
Geology The geology of the region consists of: 1) Mississippian to Triassic Cache
Creek Group oceanic volcanic and sedimentary assemblage 2) Upper Triassic
dominantly mafic volcanic Takla Group 3) Lower to Middle Jurassic Hazelton
Group mafic to felsic volcanic and sedimentary rocks 4) Upper Cretaceous to
Lower Tertiary Ootsa Lake Group sedimentary and volcanic rocks and 5)
Oligocene and Miocene Endako Group. The region has been intruded by
Lower Jurassic quartz monzonite to granodiorite Topley Intrusive Suite, Upper
Jurassic plutons of the Francois Lake Suite and plugs and stocks related to
Upper Cretaceous and Tertiary volcanism (Minfile 093K033). Several K-Spar
and quartz pegmatite dikes have been located on the Boer claims. The last
glacial ice moved from west to east over the Property.
Mineralization The Boer is a grass-roots play based upon the anomalous RGS (Mo, Cu, Ag)
in lake sediments (see maps). The first mineral discovery was in 2012 at
kilometer 13.4 on the Co-op logging road, ~12km northeast of Burns Lake. It
is a large hydrothermal breccia mineralized with abundant disseminated pyrite
with anomalous Mo, Cu and Ag values. A second discovery, two km to the
east, consists of large, angular float samples of mineralized breccia with
multiple stages of veining and alteration. Two analyses from these samples
averaged 0.548 gpt Au, 11.7 gpt Ag and 0.121 % Mo.
Potential The Boer gold-silver-molybdenum-copper occurrences indicate the potential
for discovery of a large breccia and/or porphyry deposit.
Recommended
Exploration
The next phase of exploration should be a property-wide helicopter-borne
ZTEM survey by Geotech Ltd., in parallel with localized IP surveys on
existing targets – then followed by trenching and drilling
Status The Boer Breccia/Porphyry Au-Ag-Mo-Cu property is available for option.

On June 9, 2013 Jon Rempel a Fort Fraser based earth-moving contractor and mineral prospector
informed John Chapman of the metal enriched bark samples near the eastern end of the Boer property
that are shown on MapPlace (“Focused Geochemical Surveys”, “Bark Survey Data”). This
information prompted John Chapman to contact Colin Dunn, biogeochemical expert to discuss this
MapPlace data which is from Dunn’s GSC Report (Open File 2001-09). This led to planning for the
westerly extension of the Lodgepole pine outer bark survey across the Boer property in 2013 and 20124
using the same sampling and analysis methods as Dunn in his 2001 survey. Significant copper,
molybdenum and silver anomalies have been located in the 2013 and 2014 biogeochemical surveys at
Boer. The tenor and size of the copper and molybdenum anomalies at Boer are superior to those
located at Mount Milligan, using similar methods, and reported in BSC Open File 3290 by Colin Dunn.
These 2013 results and those from 2012 indicate a strong potential for a large porphyry copper,
molybdenum, silver system at Boer. See the table on this page for a Boer vs Mount Milligan
biogeochemical sample comparison.
