This press release contains certain forward-looking
information, including, among other things, the expected completion
of acquisitions and the advancement of mineral properties. This
forward looking information includes, or may be based upon,
estimates, forecasts, and statements as to management's
expectations with respect to, among other things, the completion of
transactions, the issue of permits, the size and quality of mineral
resources, future trends for the company, progress in development
of mineral properties, future production and sales volumes, capital
costs, mine production costs, demand and market outlook for metals,
future metal prices and treatment and refining charges, the outcome

such statements will prove to be accurate and actual results and
future events could differ materially from those anticipated in
such statements. Mineral resources that are not mineral reserves do
not have demonstrated economic viability. Inferred mineral

economic considerations applied to them that would enable them to
be categorized as mineral reserves. There is no certainty that
mineral resources will be converted into mineral reserves.
