The Company is professionally managed

Focus project – Captain is 100% owned (BC Canada)

The Captain East target is large measuring 1,000 by 5,000 meters

The “discovery hole” compares favorably to Mt. Milligan 30km north:

Mt. Milligan ore grade (532 Mt): 0.38 g/t gold and 0.20% copper

Captain discovery hole 43m: 0.29 g/t gold and 0.09% copper

Including 16m: 0.43 g/t gold and 0.13% copper.

Conclusion – Captain is a large, early stage copper/gold discovery.

Two other targets remain untested - 30 locations permitted for drilling.

The primary goal for 2011 was to establish the existence

of a large mineralized copper/gold porphyry system.

2011 expenditures totaled $600,000

Grid layout and 31 line kilometers of geophysics

Induced Polarization

Resistivity

Ground Magnetometer

1240 metres of core drilling in four-holes

Petrographic studies of the core material

Three geophysical anomalies interpreted to be similar to the Mt. Milligan Deposit.

TSX.V:ORS

Hole C11-02 was drilled to a depth of 185 metres at the eastern edge

of a magnetic high intersecting a monzonite intrusive, minor pyrite.

Hole C12-01 was drilled 400 metres east of hole C11-02 to a depth of

499 metres, intersecting sericite-pyrite-quartz-carbonate over 250

metres - pyritic halo, outer phyllic shell around the porphyry.

Hole C11-01 was drilled 400 metres east of hole C12-01 to a depth of

255 metres and intercepted highly potassic-sericite-carbonate

altered volcanic rocks, porphyry dykes and hydrothermal breccia.

Assays from this hole returned an intercept of 87 metres from 127

metres grading 0.230 g/t gold and 0.03% copper, including 43 metres

grading 0.298 g/t gold and 0.09% copper and 16 metres grading

0.434 g/t gold and 0.133% copper.

Geochemical data combined with the geophysical signature

indicate a mineralized porphyry system strengthening to the east.

CAPTAIN EAST TARGET – DRILLING SUMMARY

Page 14: Orestone corporate-presentation

TSX.V:ORS

Hole C11-02 was drilled to a depth of 185 metres at the eastern edge

of a magnetic high intersecting a monzonite intrusive: no petrographic

analysis conducted.

Hole C12-01 was drilled 400 metres east of hole C11-02 to a depth of

499 metres: results show a pervasive alteration assemblage of

sericite/pyrite/quartz/carbonate over approximately 250 meters from

100 meters to 350 meters down hole. This indicates that the hole

intersected the pyritic halo in the outer phyllic shell around the margin

of a porphyry system.

Hole C11-01 was drilled 400 metres east of hole C12-01 to a depth of

255 metres: results show an alteration assemblage consisting of very

fine grained ankerite/potassium feldspar with minor kaolinite/sericite

and abundant magnetite/hematite, overprinted in part by coarse-

grained potassium feldspar. Fine-grained chalcopyrite, associated with

magnetite and pyrite, is disseminated throughout the core interval.

This alteration assemblage indicates a high temperature environment

near an intrusive source.

The primary goal for 2012 is to confirm economic grades

of copper/gold and begin to outline the East target.

Conduct initial test drilling on a second target to establish the

existence of copper/gold mineralization.

2012 expenditures budgeted at $650,000 - $1.2 million

10 line kilometers of geophysics

Induced Polarization/Resistivity and magnetics

2,000 to 4,000 metres of core drilling in 10 to 20 holes

Petrographic studies of core material

100% owned, with major mining companies Thomson Creek, Xstrata,

Goldfields and Teck working on porphyry projects in the area.

Alteration and geochemical signatures consistent with alkalic porphyry

systems; Afton, Mt. Milligan, Galore Creek and Ridgeway among others.

The East target measures 1,000 by 5,000 meters

The “discovery hole” compares favorably to Mt. Milligan:

Mt. Milligan ore grade (532 Mt): 0.38 g/t gold and 0.20% copper

Captain discovery hole 43m: 0.29 g/t gold and 0.09% copper

Including 16m: 0.43 g/t gold and 0.13% copper.

Important features of the Captain porphyry system within the Takla Arc -

Quesnel Trough of British Columbia

Located adjacent to large NW trending regional faults and shorter

linked northeast trending faults which have controlled intrusive

emplacement and mineralizing hydrothermal fluids.

Mineralization is associated with the smaller porphyry bodies

peripheral to a larger intrusive.

Magnetic highs are associated with a large alteration halo of

subvolcanic alkaline intrusive bodies.

Alteration consisting of an outer propylitic zone and a central core of

intense sericite-potassic alteration with related copper gold

mineralization.
