The data compiled thus far on the Property has identified 3 historic zones of gold mineralization, including the Thomas Ogden Zone, the Naybob South Zone and the Naybob North Zone

Deep drill target down plunge from known mine workings including the following drill intersections: (Naybob North Zone) 4.88m @ 9.53 g/t Au 4.12m @ 12.13 g/t Au 1.37m @ 24.00 g/t Au 1.07m @ 6.61 g/t Au

These drill intercepts are open down plunge and provide an excellent opportunity for the “Corporation” to build upon these promising results

Drill intersections not mined on upper levels 1.52m @ 13.71 g/t Au 1.98m @ 10.22 g/t Au 0.61m @ 58 g/t Au 3.34m @ 8.01 g/t Au

Page 13: 1 Experienced Team, Endless Opportunities Not Just Another Exploration Story.

The Naybob South Zone also provides an excellent exploration target with historic results including down hole intercepts of 5.37m of 6.33 g/t Au and 1.83m of 11.85 g/t Au

This exploration target remains open at depth and to the east with a coincident IP (induced polarization) ground geophysical anomaly

Results from the Thomas Ogden Zone also include a down hole intercept of 2.4m of 5.7 g/t Au

The Ogden Property will be drill ready within one month

MEK to earn 100% interest by paying prospectors $95,000 and 250,000 MEK shares over three years

Past work has identified three gold showings with values up to 65 g/t Au

The Main Showing at Wood Lake consists of disseminated arsenopyrite and pyrite within a wide, altered (silica, albite, sericite) felsic porphyry

Good potential for High tonnage, lower grade deposit

Two holes within South Wood (Main) Zone had 1.47 g/t Au / 22.5m and 0.23 g/t Au / 52.9m (only two holes in this zone, Open in all directions)

26

Page 27: 1 Experienced Team, Endless Opportunities Not Just Another Exploration Story.

Wood Lake Zone is outlined as a magnetic low, greater than 1000 meters long and is open in all directions

Regionally the mineralization is coincident with a splay off the Cape Ray Fault, which hosts 400,000 oz of gold in a number of deposits

Work has started and will include detailed magnetics, soil geochemistry, channel sampling and geological mapping. Drilling will commence this fall/winter

Recent prospecting resulted in discovery of 196.7 g/t angular quartz vein float containing pyrite and arsenopyrite
