price of $0.50 per unit for gross proceeds of up to $3,000,000.
Each unit will consist of one common share and one-half of one
non-transferable share purchase warrant. Each whole share purchase
warrant entitles the holder to purchase one common share of the Company
at a price of $0.75 per share for 18 months, subject to accelerated
expiry, such expiry being accelerated to 30 days in the event the
Company's shares have closed at or above a price of $1.00 per share for

A finder's fee may be payable in cash, shares and/or warrants in
relation to this financing, in accordance with regulatory policies. The
foregoing is subject to regulatory approval.
The funds from the private placement will allow the Company to increase
its 2010 drill program from a minimum of 12,000 metres to a maximum of
28,000 metres. The balance of the funds will be used for the ongoing
development work on the Nixon Fork Gold Mine in Alaska and general
working capital.
