 associated with the structurally-controlled quartz-magnetite stockwork within and to the east of the main porphyry copper deposit.

A drill and exploration base camp has been completed on site. Structural mapping and channel sampling, initiated in October, are continuing in anticipation of citing drill locations and drill pad construction. Continuous, one-meter channel samples are being collected from several zones along the NE-striking structurally-controlled quartz-magnetite stockwork that hosts the high-grade copper-gold-silver mineralization. Channel sampling follows the quartz-magnetite stockwork for at least 300 meters along strike and at least 50 meters across strike. Previous sampling by Bellhaven of a small area within the stockwork zone, as reported in the news release dated March 6, 2006, returned a total of 61 meters at an average grade of 1.89% Cu, 1.44 g/t Au, and 23.28 g/t Ag.
