As a result of a review by the British Columbia Securities Commission, the Company is issuing the following press release to clarify its disclosure.

The Commission recently advised the Company that it had reviewed the Company's March 31, 2011 and June 30, 2011 interim financial statements (the "Interim Statements") and the related Management's Discussion and Analysis (the "Interim MD&A") (collectively the "Disclosure Documents") relating to the Company's transition to International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS"), and provided comments directed at helping the Company to comply with securities regulation and to improve the quality of disclosure provided to the Company's shareholders and other investors.

• The June 30, 2011 MD&A did not identify the qualified person who prepared or approved the technical / geological information in the MD&A, or his relationship to the Company;
• The June 30, 2011 MD&A did not contain the level of disclosure required by NI 43-101 in respect of the exploration work completed during the quarter and overall results received, and reported various mineral resources for adjacent properties without the details of resource category, tonnes and grade required by NI 43-101.
