Bowmore will have the right to purchase up to 1% of the NSR for the sum of $1,000,000 for a period of one year after a positive bankable feasibility study.

        Mr. Paul Dumas, President of Bowmore, stated "We are pleased with this opportunity to acquire the Victoria Lake property. This allows the Company to expand its strategic exploration portfolio into the tin market given the high price and lack of global resources for this valuable commodity. Tin is a very scarce metal and it is highly sought after in the use of electronics and industrial industries due to its corrosion-resistant properties. We believe that with the current pullback of the gold price, Bowmore can benefit from diversifying outside of the gold sector, specifically when the opportunity that presents itself demonstrates above average potential within a sector where current demand continues to outpace supply."
