The Burton Property

The Burton Property consists of 6 patented and 16 unpatented mining claims
encompassing 22 claim units (356 hectares) and is located in the Swayze
Greenstone Belt, Northeastern Ontario, approximately 150 km south of Timmins and
180 km north of Sudbury. The Swayze Greenstone Belt is interpreted as being
correlative with the Abitibi Greenstone belt which hosts the world class
Kirkland Lake and Timmins gold mining camps. The Swayze Greenstone belt is an
active exploration centre including the exploration and evaluation work being
completed by Trelawney.


Historical diamond drill intercepts at the Burton Property include 9.34 grams
per ton ("g/t") over an intersection length of 7.75 metres ("m") at the Shaft
Zone and 12.47 g/t over an intersection length of 3.13 m at the East Zone.
Diamond drilling completed by Falcon Gold during 2011 included 3.74 g/t Au over
an intersection length of 9.96 m (including 10.98 g/t Au over 2.17 m) and 3.25
g/t Au over an intersection length of 10.35 m (including 5.65 g/t Au over 2.85
m) at the Shaft Zone (as set out in Falcon Gold press releases dated July 27,
2011 and September 12, 2011.)
