This two hole drill program was designed to test the lateral and down dip extensions of the high grade silver mineralization Mineralization

 fault zone were unsuccessful. The initial drill hole was abandoned at 34 metres when the drill proved incapable of coring the shear zone. A second steeper angled drill hole was successful in intersecting the hanging wall of the mineralized shear structure. However, the second hole did not penetrate through the entire width of the shear zone and did not intersect the high-grade footwall foot·wall

 mineralization.

Although the drill holes did not reach their proposed depth, the width and intensity of the intersected shear structure is very encouraging. Prior drilling by Cream in 1998 returned values up to 2,271 g/t silver over 0.51 metres within a 3.25 metre interval that assayed 390.05 g/t silver from drill hole 98SB-05. The highest silver values intersected in the previous drill program were obtained from the strongest part of the shear zone tested during that program. These step out holes intersected what appears to be broader and more intense shearing that may be related to higher grade silver values.

The company proposes to return to the Silver Bear area of its Kaslo Silver Property and continue the drill program using a reverse circulation drill.
