The drill program is targeting the Elan Coal Property which is located in southwestern Alberta near the historic coal mining municipality of Crowsnest Pass and adjacent to Riversdale's recently acquired Grassy Mountain coal project. As announced on August 12, 2013 Altitude entered into an Exploration and Option Agreement with Elan, a private Non-Arm's Length Party. Altitude has acquired an option to earn up to a 51% undivided working interest in Elan's 27 Alberta Crown coal lease applications which cover a 22,951 ha area. The Agreement allows Altitude the right to enter upon and conduct exploration activities in and on all parts of the Leases. An initial NI 43 - 101 Coal Resource estimate was calculated comprising of 62 million tonnes ("Mt") in the Measured and Indicated Mineral Resource categories and 84Mt in the Inferred Mineral Resource category. A 726Mt (NI 43-101 compliant) exploration target for the Elan property has been identified. The property can be accessed by driving north from Crowsnest Pass on secondary roads. Elan has access to rail and port infrastructure with spare capacity. Coal rank is low to mid volatile.
