    1.0 SUMMARY This technical report summarizes known information pertaining to the early stage Lunar copper porphyry related target exploration venture. The report describes the underlying geology of the project area, summarizes the property‟s exploration history, reviews the nature of property copper and subordinate silver mineralization and makes recommendations for further exploration. The report was prepared at the request of Stratton Resources Inc. (“Stratton”) and was written under the guidelines of Canadian National Instrument 43-101. The Lunar property is located in north central British Columbia, Canada, approximately 160 kilometres southeast of Dease Lake. The claims lie about 60 kilometres southeast of the road accessible Kutcho Creek VMS deposit or 95 kilometres north of the Kemess North porphyry deposit. A seasonal gravel road ends about 42 kilometres south of the southern limit of the claims. The property consists of a single contiguous claim block of thirty-nine mineral claims, covering 15,915 hectares or 39,326 acres. On August 17, 2011, Stratton acquired the property claims by agreeing to a cash payment of $70,000 for 100% ownership of the property claims and also a 2.75% net smelter return royalty. An aggregate total of 500,000 Stratton common share payments will be made should the company elect to spend a total of $10.0 million on exploration. A onetime cash payment of $500,000 is payable after a positive feasibility study and a positive production decision. The net smelter royalty can be reduced to 1.25% at any time via a $1.5 million payment. The Lunar claims are registered to AZ Copper Corp., a private BC registered company and wholly owned subsidiary of Stratton. The property is best accessed by helicopter from Dease Lake, which is the closest full service community providing infrastructure and skilled manpower. Dease Lake is accessible via a good all weather highway, from Smithers (600 km to the south) and Watson Lake (250 km to the north). There is no infrastructure on the property to assist exploration. Other nearby access points to be considered are the Kutcho Creek dirt airstrip (~60 km northwest) and also the Sturdee airstrip about 70 km south. No exploration permits or reclamation bonds are in place for future large scale mineral exploration. Past work completed by previous explorationists has had very limited surface disturbance and pre-date requirements for modern type exploration permits. The recommended exploration programs will require BC Provincial permits, cash bonding and First Nation consultations to proceed. To the best of the author‟s knowledge there are no existing environmental liabilities for the property. Lunar claims overlap the boundary of the Northeast-Central and Northwest BC mining divisions. There are no First Nations reserves located on or immediate proximity of the Lunar claims. The property is located within the traditional lands of Kaska First Nation. A treaty group made up of the Kaska Dena Council, Liard First Nation (Yukon) and Ross River Dena Council (Yukon). The British Columbia Treaty Negotiations with the Kaska Nation is currently at stage 4 (agreement-in-principle negotiations stage) of the six-staged process and has no definitive time line to completion. To the best of the author‟s knowledge, there has been no past consultation with the First Nation Bands for any past Lunar exploration. The Kaska Dena Council is the main contact for Stratton‟s First Nation consultations. Importantly, the Kaska Dena Council has previously formed partnerships with exploration-exploitation companies who have operated on their traditional lands.

    The property is located within the Cassiar Mountains of the Stikine Range, just south of the continental divide between the Arctic and Pacific watersheds. The claim block covers much of the northern portion of the Lunar Creek drainage system flowing north into the Pitman River, which in turn drains westward into the major Stikine River system. Topography is typical of a rugged glaciated alpine terrain having broad U-shaped valleys which locally exhibit precipitous slopes with large talus aprons, sharp peaks and ridges. Property elevations range from 4,100 to 6,600 feet, with the alpine-tree line at approximately 5,200 feet. Property rock exposure is sparse, with most of the outcrops being either inaccessible cliff faces or high alpine exposures. Soils are very poorly developed, as glacial debris is more common on hill sides and valley bottoms. The property is generally free of snow from early June through October. Winters are cold and dry, while summers are cool and moist. An extensive snow pack will prohibit most winter work, particularly on those portions of the property at higher elevations, where avalanche hazards exist. Regionally, Lunar is underlain by the accreted Stikine and Quesnel terranes, which are mainly composed of island arc, plutonic and sedimentary rocks. Rocks of the Quesnel terrane include mid Triassic to lower Jurassic Takla Group mafic volcanics and the mid Triassic Lunar Creek Ultramafic Complex. The oldest lithologies in the region are Stikine terrane mixed greenstone metamorphics and undivided sediments of the Asitka Group. Also included within the Stikine are mixed marine sediments and volcanics of both the upper Triassic Stuhini Group and lower Jurassic Hazelton Group. Early Jurassic to Cretaceous Guichon Suite granitoids, particularly the Pitman pluton granites, intrude most of the older lithologies found in both the Stikine and Quesnel terranes. Regional structure is dominated by a system of northwest, north and east trending faults that reflect a complex history of sinistral strike-slip and extensional deformation. The major northwest trending Kutcho Fault defines the boundary between the Stikine and Quesnel terranes. On a local scale, the Lunar property is located on the east side of the major northwest trending Kutcho fault and is dominantly underlain by early Jurassic Pitman Granitic pluton (Guichon Suite - Quesnel Terrane). The mid Triassic Lunar Creek Ultramafic Intrusion Complex and small slivers of mid Triassic to lower Jurassic Takla volcanics rocks are found on the southwest portion of the property. Pitman granitoids are high fractured and variably metamorphosed (locally to amphibolite facies) and vary from leucocratic granite to granodiorite to biotite-quartz-hornblende monzonite gneiss. Property structures are dominated by a system of west-northwest, north and east trending faults, shears and fractures, with fabrics ranging from brittle joints and faults to ductile mylonitic shears. The property has been explored intermittently since 1970 with the majority of work completed by El Paso Mining and Milling Company. The company, over six years (1970 to 1976) carried out exploration programs which included prospecting, control grid lines, silt-rock-soil sampling, geological mapping, an IP geophysical survey and five shallow diamond drill holes. In 1981, Hinterland Resources completed a follow-up IP geophysical survey over the main target area. Later in 2006, Hard Creek Nickel Corp. completed a prospecting program on Lunar Creek Ultramafic Complex, exploring for nickel-copper-PGE potential. The property‟s priority exploration target is located in the centre region of the claim block within an area measuring about 2.5 by 1.5 kilometres. The priority area includes the property‟s notable mineral occurrences, IP geophysical anomalies and soil anomalies. Detailed historical exploration efforts, which have been largely confined to this area, have identified porphyry related copper mineralization in two small copper skarns and at least three (perhaps five?) parallel zones of west-northwest trending,

    steep north dipping shears or gneissic bands. These biotite quartz monzonite gneissic bands are the property’s primary copper mineralization target, as they contain irregular disseminations of fine grained pyrite, magnetite, chalcopyrite (rare bornite) and common malachite staining. The biotite quartz monzonite schist/shear/gneiss bands form alternating assemblages which have reported interpreted widths up to 370 metres and lengths of 240 metres. The density and extents of the parallel zones is not well understood as overburden cover has hindered geological interpretation and north-south faults reportedly truncate-offset the units. Exposures of malachite coated fractures are widely noted on the property, particularly the along cliff exposures in the Lunar Creek Valley. Rock chip samples collected from the copper-garnet-epidote skarns showings have yielded a highlight result of 0.46% copper and 1.16 ppm silver over 7.62 metres (Zone 1). In 1971, a five diamond drill hole campaign tested soil anomalies, a IP chargeability anomaly and a surface showing. A total of 905 metres of AQ diameter core was drilled. All holes, except W-4 (no samples collected) yielded anomalous copper values over varying, generally narrow intervals. DDH W-3, drill tested a surface showing of copper enriched biotite monzonite gneiss bands, which reported a highlight result of 53.95 metres of 0.23% copper, 0.8 ppm silver and 0.3 ppm gold (including 3.05 metres of 1.2% copper, 5.5 ppm silver and 0.65 ppm gold). Property soils are very poorly developed consisting of slumped glacial debris and/or locally derived rock-grit material. Detailed soil sampling completed in the center of the property generated numerous individual spot high copper values particularly in a broad region where the overburden is thin and outcrop more abundant. This broad copper anomaly is loosely coincident with the property‟s best exposures of biotite quartz monzonite gneissic bands. The soil anomalies do not well coincide with elevated copper mineralization revealed in the 1971 drilling. Two induced polarization geophysical surveys have been carried out on the central area of the Lunar property. Together, the 1970 and 1981 overlapping surveys have outlined a number of WNW trending, laterally extensive chargeability anomalies which are attributed to elevated sulphides within the target biotite gneiss rocks. Many of these chargeability anomalies are open ended and measure at least 1,000 metres long by 300 metres wide. Very limited drill testing of some of these anomalies has identified disseminated pyrite, magnetite and chalcopyrite within mixed monzonite and biotite gneiss bands. A number of secondary chargeability and resistivity anomalies has been identified and are attributed to either paralleling or cross cutting fault structures. Detailed silt sampling in the immediate vicinity of the priority area (i.e. the northern half Lunar Creek and its tributaries) has successfully outlined the regional extents of the property‟s main target area. Interestingly, an east-southeast trending river off Lunar Creek (opposite the main 1970 IP anomaly and drill holes 1 and 2) show elevated copper values and therefore may indicate significant expansion potential in overall target area. BC government regional silt samples have been collected from the property and surrounding area. While sampling coverage of drainages outside the property‟s priority target area is not wholly comprehensive, results do indicate that there are a number of drainages on and outside of the property limits with moderately anomalous copper, gold and molybdenum values which warrant follow-up investigation.

    The report author inspected the property on August 23, 2011. The independent property audit includes a project site examination, review of property geology, styles of mineralization-alteration and rock sample collection. The author reports that, overall, geology, mineralization and showings referred to in the historical records are genuine. Independent visual assessments and rock samples collected by the author have confirmed the copper porphyry related nature of reported mineralization. The author‟s sampling results indicate that elevated copper concentrations are moderately coincident with anomalous silver values. Other base and precious metals appear to show no positive correlation with copper. Typical pathfinder elements, such as molybdenum, arsenic, mercury, tungsten, tin, bismuth and rhenium show no correlation to elevated copper numbers. It is recommended herein that Stratton carry out additional exploration efforts on the Lunar property. At an estimated cost of $1.0 million, the Phase One program should focus on establishing a large cut line control grid over the priority region. This grid should be geophysically surveyed by magnetics & VLF-EM and also 3D inversion induced polarization. Experienced geologists should detail geological map and prospect the entire grid. Additionally, the company should follow up on anomalous silt samples within and outside the property limits and plus silt sample and prospect lesser known property drainages. The size and scope of the Phase Two program, consisting of about 4,500 metres of diamond drilling priority geophysical targets and surface showings, would be contingent on the results of Phase One explorations. A preliminary budget of $2.0 million is suggested.

    3.0 RELIANCE ON OTHER EXPERTS The author has relied on both private corporate and publicly available information on the Lunar Project. Critical components include historical property assessment reports, private company reports, BC and Canadian Federal Government publications and websites. The author has reviewed the private and public data and believes them to be accurate and reliable in their collection, disclosure and analysis of results and therefore can be relied upon and can be used for project evaluation and determination of value of the project. In cases of uncertainty, the author has qualified that information with accompanying clarification and explanation. The author, not an expert in legal matters, is required by NI 43-101 to include a description of the property title, terms of legal agreements and related information in Section 4.2 of this report. The author has relied on property agreement information provided by Stratton and claim information from British Columbia Mineral Titles Office in order to provide summaries of title, ownership and related information. The property agreements and other relevant legal documents were prepared or reviewed by Stratton legal counsel McMillan LLP. The author has relied on the expert opinion and documents provided by Richard Haslinger (COO Stratton Resources), Peter Rees (CFO Stratton Resources) and also McMillan LLP in these matters; via emails in September and October 2011. A careful review of the Lunar claim title information was conducted by the author on October 21, 2011, via the British Columbia Mineral Titles inquiry website. The results of this review are discussed in Section 4.2 of this report. An independent verification of land title and tenure was not performed and as such this report does not represent a legal title opinion. 4.0 PROPERTY DESCRIPTIONS AND LOCATIONS 4.1 Area and Location The Lunar property is located in the north central British Columbia, Canada, approximately 160 km southeast of Dease Lake. The property is centred approximately at latitude 57º 56‟ North and longitude 127º 25' West (UTM Zone 09V 0593800E/6422400N NAD 83) on NTS maps 094E/13 & 14 and 094L/04 & 03 (or BCGS Maps 094E.083, .084, .093, .094 and 094L.003) (Figure 4.1). The property is approximately 95 km north of the Kemess North Deposit (136.5 billion tonnes 0.29% Cu, 0.558 gpt Au, 2.1 gpt Ag indicated resource – BC Minfile 094E 021). The claims are 60 km southeast of the Kutcho Creek VMS Deposit (11.3 million tonnes of 2.19% Cu, 3.28% Zn, 0.39 gpt Au & 36.7 gpt Ag measured + indicated resource - JDS 2011). 4.2 Claims and Title The Lunar property consists of a single contiguous claim block of thirty-nine mineral claims, covering 15,915.23321 hectares or 39,326.001 acres, within the Northeast-Central and Northwest Mining Divisions (Figure 4.2). The individual claim statistics are summarized in Table 4.2 below. The claims do not have to be legally surveyed as they were staked via the BC Ministry of Energy and Mines mineral titles online system. The property claims have a good standing date ranging from Dec 20, 2011 to October 07, 2012. The surface rights holder for the land covered by the Lunar claims are

  • Lunar Project, October 2011 Stratton Resources Inc.

    11 M Moore P. Geo

    property of the “Crown”, i.e. the Province of British Columbia (notwithstanding the ongoing First Nation treaty negotiations). By virtue of the Mineral Tenure Act of the Province of British Columbia and the recently finalized property purchase agreement, Stratton has the right to access for the purposes of conducting mineral exploration the land it legally owns. The sole registered owner for the Lunar claims was Johan Thom Shearer (MTO Client # 124452) of Port Coquitlam BC. Shearer controls the BC registered private company Homegold Resources Ltd. On June 01, 2011, Shearer and Homegold entered into a Letter of Intent agreement for the Lunar Property with the private BC Company Xstract Resources Inc. On August 17, 2011, Stratton entered into a 100% purchase-sale agreement with both Homegold Resources Ltd and Xstract Resources Inc. to acquire the Lunar mineral claims. This agreement has an effective date of August 17, 2011, as the TSX Venture exchange authorities waived formal agreement approval which would have affected the agreement effective date under the terms of the agreement. On October 19, 2011, ownership of all property claims were transferred to AZ Copper Corp (MTO Client # 246901), a wholly owned subsidiary of Stratton. Stratton has paid a cash payment of $70,000 for 100% ownership of the property claims and also pay a 2.75% net smelter return royalty. An aggregate total of 500,000 Stratton common share payments will be made should the company elect to expend a total of $10.0 million on exploration. A onetime cash payment of $500,000 is payable after a positive feasibility study and a positive production decision. Details of this agreement are as follows.

    (1) On effective date, Stratton will pay to Xstract $70,000 against transfer property titles (complete); (2) On effective date, Xstract will issue 500,000 Xstract Shares to Homegold, which will result in

    approximately 4.5 million Xstract Shares outstanding (complete); (3) Upon 2.0 million in exploration expenditures, Stratton will issue 50,000 Stratton Shares to each of

    Homegold and Xstract (totalling 100,000 shares); (4) Upon spending an additional $3.0 million (totalling $5.0 million) in exploration expenditures,

    Stratton will issue to Xstract a further 150,000 Stratton Shares; (5) Upon spending an additional $5.0 million (totalling $10.0 million) in exploration expenditures,

    Stratton will issue to Xstract a further 250,000 Stratton Shares; (6) After a positive feasibility study and a decision to advance the project to commercial production is

    made, Stratton will make a one-time cash payment of $500,000 to Homegold; (7) If 72 months has passed from the effective date and a payment as contemplated in (6) above is

    owing and has not been made, advance royalties of $12,000 per annum payable by Stratton to Homegold will commence.

    Stratton has agreed to pay to Homegold a net smelter royalty of 2.5%. 60% or 1.5% of this royalty can be bought out at any time for $1.5 million. Additionally, a net smelter royalty of 0.25% is also payable to Xstract. Homegold and Xtract and their officers-directors are bound by an „area of interest‟ of within a three mile (4.82 km) perimeter around the outside of the property boundary from staking additional ground.

    4.3 Environmental Liability, Permits, Bonds & other Significant Risk Factors The author, not an expert in political, environmental and societal matters, is required by NI 43-101 to comment on the environmental, permitting, First Nation treaty negotiations, social and community factors related to the project. To this end, the author has relied on British Columbia and Federal publications, reports and websites, guidance by Stratton and its legal counsel and BC government representatives and also a general working knowledge of the mineral exploration industry in British Columbia. The author has reviewed these data and believes them to be accurate and reliable in their collection and disclosure. In general, exploration, development and mining projects in British Columbia require a high level of environmental and societal conscientiousness. Therefore all of Stratton‟s future work must bear this high standard in-mind. To the best of the author‟s knowledge there are no existing environmental liabilities for the property, as Lunar is an early stage exploration venture and has seen only minor historical work. During the author‟s 2011 property visit, the abandoned 1970‟s camp site, drill area and mineralized outcrops were visited. At the 1970‟s camp site are a collection of dilapidated wood structures, abandoned fuel drums (contents unknown) and a small garbage dump of discarded metal and glass. A fly over of an old drill site (ddh W-3) noted some abandoned drill pipe and a few rusted fuel drums (contents unknown). As part of the recommended Phase One exploration program, Stratton should visit the old camp and drill sites and complete a simple cleanup of the abandoned fuel drums, metal debris and burn wood waste. No exploration permits or reclamation bonds are in place for future large scale mineral exploration. Past work completed by El Paso Mining and Mining Company has had very limited surface disturbance and pre-date requirements for modern type exploration permits. When a larger scale exploration program is contemplated for the property, work permits, cash reclamation bonding and First Nations consultations will be required. No archaeological studies have been carried out at Lunar. Property claims overlap the boundary of the BC Mining divisions of Northeast-Central (Prince George office) and Northwest (Smithers office), although most of the property claims are within the Northeast-Central division. For all exploration and development permits for the Lunar project, Stratton can elect to deal with either regional office. The majority of the property lies within the Omenica Forest Region (Mackenzie District – Mackenzie office) of the British Columbia Ministry of Forests. The southwest corner of the property lies within the Skeena Forestry Region (Skeena Stikine District –Smithers). The property is included within a vast hunter-outfitter area managed by Upper Stikine Adventures of Telkwa BC, run by Jerry Geraci. There are no First Nations reserves located on or in immediate proximity of the Lunar claims. The property is located within the traditional lands of Kaska First Nation; a treaty group made up of the Kaska Dena Council, Liard First Nation (Yukon) and Ross River Dena Council (Yukon). The Kaska Dena Council is a society incorporated under the Society Act of British Columbia. It includes the Dease River and Kwadacha bands and Lower Post First Nation (Daylu Dena Council). Canada does not classify the Lower Post First Nation as a band, but rather as one of eight reserves belonging to the Yukon-based Liard First Nation.

  • Lunar Project, October 2011 Stratton Resources Inc.

    16 M Moore P. Geo

    The Kaska Dena Council (KDC) (offices in Lower Post BC) entered the British Columbia treaty process in January 1994. In July of 2000, Ross River Dena Council and Liard First Nation received mandates at the Kaska Annual General Assembly to work together with the Kaska Dena Council and a revised statement of intent, which included the two Yukon bands, was accepted by the British Columbia Treaty Negotiations (BCTC). Negotiations were in Stage 4 of the six-stage process, negotiation of an agreement in principle, when, in March 2003, Canada suspended its participation in negotiations with both the BC and Yukon Kaska Nation bands due to outstanding legal issues. The Kaska have since put their litigation into abeyance and Canada has re-engaged the Yukon Kaska and Yukon Territorial Government in tripartite negotiations under the Yukon First Nations Umbrella Agreement. Canada and the Province resumed treaty negotiations with KDC in 2008. The parties have tabled and discussed several agreements in principle chapters, as well as linkages to Strategic Engagement Agreement negotiations now underway with the BC Integrated Land Management Bureau. The author is not aware of any conclusive publically available final agreement details. Interestingly, in November 2010, KDC and Silvercorp Inc entered into a Memorandum of Understanding with respect to the Silvertip Project which is located in Kaska traditional territory. The MOU establishes an effective partnership between the Silvercorp and the Kaska communities which includes a joint objective of maximizing Kaska employment during the exploration, construction and operation of the Silvertip Project. To the best of the author‟s knowledge, there has been no past consultation with the First Nation Bands for any historical Lunar exploration work. Federal and Provincial governments have indicated that explorationists have “a duty to consult First Nations peoples and accommodate their concerns”. In keeping with this initiative, governments strongly recommend that mining companies maintain dialog with local First Nation communities so activities can be coordinated to avoid any conflict with exploration and related activities. During the permitting stage of any proposed work, Stratton should notify and consult with the Kaska Dena Council of its plans via written, phone and/or direct correspondence. At the initial stages, these consultations should be conducted in concert with BC Ministry of Energy, Mines and Petroleum Resources mineral exploration permitting personnel, so as to simplify and speed the process and also to avoid duplicative efforts. The author recommends that the First Nation notifications occur on a regular basis, so as to help to foster a good relationship and also that Stratton keep comprehensive records of the timing and details of all communications. Additionally, Stratton should consider offering seasonal exploration related employment to qualified band members when practical and appropriate. The author is not aware of any significant risks or uncertainties or any reasonably foreseeable impacts thereof that could reasonably be expected to affect the Lunar project future potential, other than uncertainties related the ongoing First Nation treaty negotiations.

    5.0 Accessibility, Climate, Local Resources, Infrastructure, Physiography (Figures 4.1 & 4.2) The Lunar property is located in north central interior of British Columbia, Canada, approximately 160 km southeast of Dease Lake. Dease Lake is a community of about 650 people and has basic services such as an airstrip, medical clinic, school, restaurants, college extension campus, grocery store and hotels. The Dease Lake area offers a pool of potential project employees that would be supplemented with people from outside the region. The community is accessible via all weather highway 37, from Smithers (600 km to the south) and Watson Lake (250 km to the north). Dease Lake is 400 km from the Pacific Ocean port of Stewart. There are is no infrastructure on the property to assist exploration. The property is best accessed by helicopter from Dease Lake. Other nearby points of interest and accessibility include the following.

    - A small lake along Lunar Creek is located about 1 km south of the southern limit of the property and maybe accessible by small fixed wing aircraft.

    - Kutcho Creek deposit, located about 60 km to the northwest of the property, is accessible from highway 37 by a 100 km long seasonal 4x4 dirt road and also has a 900 m gravel airstrip located at the junction of Kutcho and Andrea Creeks (JDS 2011).

    - The dirt road and airstrip accessible North Kemess deposit is about 95 km to the south. - The Sturdee Airstrip (1,600m long) is about 70km to the south. - Past the Sturdee Airstrip is a spur off the main Omenica resource access road called the

    Metsantan extension. This seasonal gravel road terminates at the Al Deposit (Minfile 094E 079), about 42km south of the southern limit of the Lunar claim block.

    - The community of Waston Lake, Yukon is about 250 km north. The property is located within the Cassiar Mountains of the Stikine Range, just south of the continental divide between the Arctic and Pacific watersheds. The glacially derived topography is rugged with elevations ranging from 1,250 (4,100 feet) to 2,000 (6,600 feet) metres, with the alpine-tree line at approximately 1,600 to 1,700 metres. The claim block covers much of the northern portion of the Lunar Creek drainage system. The north limit of the claims is near the Lunar Creek confluence with the Pitman River (Pittman River Protected area), which drains westward into the major Stikine River system. The eastern side of the claim block loosely follows Lunar Creek, with much of the property covering the west slopes of the Lunar Creek Valley and slightly beyond. The property extends to the southeast, crossing Lunar Creek to include an unnamed rugged mountain. The south-central area of the property marks the watershed divide between the north and south flow regimes of Lunar Creek itself. To the south, the river flows into the Chukachida River (Chukachida Protected Area) and then into the Stikine River (Stikine River Provincial Park). Lunar Creek and its tributaries will provide abundant water for exploration and related drill programs. The property climate is typical of the north central Cassiar Mountain region of British Columbia, being generally free of snow from early June through October. Winters are cold and dry, while summers are cool and moist. At Kutcho Creek, about 60 km to the northwest, the average annual temperature is about -1º C (range +35 to -51º C) and the total annual precipitation is about 500mm, half of which is snow (JDS 2011). An extensive snow pack on the Lunar claims will prohibit most winter work, particularly on those portions of the property at higher elevations, where avalanche hazards exist.

    Topography is typical of a rugged glaciated alpine terrain having broad U-shaped valleys which on a local scale, often exhibit precipitous slopes with large talus aprons, sharp peaks and ridges. In general soils are very poorly developed, with sparse and irregular coverage being limited to lower slopes and valley bottoms. Glacial debris is wide spread through valley bottoms. The property glacial transport direction is from south to north (Taylor 1976). Property rock exposure is sparse, with most of the outcrops being either inaccessible cliff faces or alpine exposures. The sub-alpine valley regions of the property are covered by dense stands of stunted black spruce trees which give way to grass and lichen at higher elevations. The combination of dense spruce trees, steep/rugged variable terrain and coarse blocky talus or felsenmeer slopes can make walking and grid line establishment difficult. 6.0 HISTORY The following exploration history of the Lunar property is compiled from multiple BC government assessment and two private corporate reports. The author has endeavoured to compile a complete database of all property exploration, but makes no warranty as to whether the following historical information is complete or wholly accurate. Overall, the author believes the information presented herein to be reliable and reflective of all historical documents and information uncovered by and provided to the author.

    The earliest report of exploration in the immediate area was completed by Quebec Cartier Mining Company in 1969. The company completed a prospecting and regional scale stream sediment program on their TK Property, which is located to the immediate east of the current Lunar Property (Kalnins 1969). Copper anomalous stream sediments and prospecting led to the discovery of porphyry copper (± molybdenum) type mineralization hosted in granitiod lithologies. Copper mineralization is reported to occur chiefly as bornite with sparse chalcopyrite, controlled by dykes and fractures. Kalnins reports that there are three main fracture orientations: 300/60NE, 200/38W and 235/49NW. 1970 to 1976 El Paso Mining & Milling Company The majority of work carried out on the property was completed by El Paso Mining and Milling Company, who over six years completed a numerous exploration programs including, prospecting, control grid line establishment, silt-rock-soil sampling, an IP geophysical survey and five diamond drill holes. For more details on select showing, sampling and geophysical results the reader is referred to Section 7.2 Local Geology & Mineralization. 1970 West Claims The earliest report of exploration at Lunar is by El Paso Mining and Milling Company, who in early July 1970 completed a geological and geochemical program on the property then called “West Claims” (Jones 1970). The company established about 5.68 miles (9.14km) of cutline control grid from which 214 soils and 12 rocks samples were collected. All samples were shipped to Chemex Labs (Vancouver BC), where the soils were analyzed for copper and the rocks for copper, zinc, silver and gold. The program identified two small garnet-epidote-copper skarn zones (Zones 1 and 2) (BC Minfile 094E 204) and a few discrete copper in soil anomalies. In September of 1970, El Paso contracted Kenting Earth Sciences of Calgary Alberta to complete a pole-dipole induced polarization survey on the cut line grid (~5.68 miles total survey) (Dodds 1970). The survey identified an open ended (to the southeast and northwest) chargeability anomaly, measuring at least 1,000 metres long by 250 metres wide and striking at about 300º. Located on the southern edge of the survey area, the anomaly was interpreted as a likely eastward extension of the copper skarn related mineralization identified in Skarn Zones 1 and 2. Dodds comments that survey results indicate that sulphide mineralization is continuous through to Lunar Creek, although the degree or extent may vary considerably. Historical soil sampling of the area covering this large chargeability anomaly is incomplete, but does appear to show a potential coincident open ended copper in soil anomaly on the western extent. A weak southeast trending and consistent resistivity low (conductive zone) underlies the western limit of the main chargeability anomaly and is interpreted to be reflective of a possibly a fault or shear zone. A second weaker and narrow chargeability zone, measuring about 500m long and striking about 105º, was also identified on the north-western portion of the grid. 1971 West, Earl, Mack Claims In 1971, El Paso completed a large exploration program of flagged grid expansion, soil sampling, geological mapping and diamond drilling (Taylor 1971). A total of 567 soil samples were collected on grid expansion lines located to the north and southeast (east of Lunar Creek) of the 1970 soil-IP cutline grid. The soil samples were analyzed for copper and molybdenum. Despite generally poor quality soil, the sampling outlined broad copper anomaly north of the baseline. This broad anomaly is loosely

    defined by numerous individual spot high copper values which often can only be extrapolated for a single additional line width of about 60 metres. Soil sampling on the east side of Lunar Creek yielded generally subdued results. Detailed geological mapping was completed on the grid area located to the northeast of the earlier 1970 mapping. At least three roughly parallel zones of copper enriched „meta-sediments‟ (biotite gneisses or metagranites), trending 280º to 305º, were mapped on the northern half of the grid. Taylor notes that rock exposure is exceptionally poor on the region south of the baseline; the area underlain by the 1970 main IP chargeability anomaly. Five diamond drill holes (DDH W1 to W5) were drilled to test the main IP chargeability anomaly, two soil anomalies and a surface showing. A total of 905 metres (2,970 feet) of AQ diameter core was drilled. All holes, except W-4 (no samples collected) yielded anomalous copper values over varying, generally narrow intervals. Hole W-3, drill testing a surface showing hosted in „meta-sediments‟, reported the best results of 53.95 metres of 0.23% copper, 0.8 ppm silver and 0.3 ppm gold (including 3.05 metres of 1.2% copper, 5.5 ppm silver and 0.65 ppm gold). 1972 “South Group” of West, Earl, Mack Claims In June - July 1972, El Paso completed a follow up exploration program of flagged grid expansion, silt sampling and local-regional geological mapping and prospecting (Ryback-Hardy 1972). The 1970-1 cutline grid was expanded eastward to Lunar Creek and detailed geological mapped. A total of 67 silt samples were collected at ~500 foot (152m) intervals down the major drainages of the Lunar Creek Valley and also the large north-south trending drainage to the west. All samples were shipped to Min-En Labs (North Vancouver BC), where the soils were analyzed for copper, molybdenum, zinc, nickel and silver. Regional scale prospecting and geological mapping was carried out on the ridges and mountain tops surrounding the area of earlier focussed work. Importantly, detailed geological mapping redefined and refined a number of earlier lithological and mineralization assumptions. Ryback-Hardy (1972) concluded that the property’s dominant copper mineralization is controlled by west-northwest trending, steep north dipping biotite-quartz gneiss/schist/shear zones likely of intrusive origin (i.e. biotite quartz monzonite gneiss) and not a meta-sediment as earlier thought. At least three such prospective zones were identified. 1976 West Claims (North) In 1976, El Paso followed up on a few highly anomalous copper silt samples collected in 1972 from a north flowing drainage located north of the detailed work. The limited program included establishment of a small flagged control grid, silt-rock sampling, prospecting and a rock thin section study (Taylor 1976). A total of 233 soil, 2 silts and 5 rock samples were collected. All samples were shipped to Min-En Labs (North Vancouver BC), where they were analyzed for copper, molybdenum, zinc and silver. Prospecting efforts reported that the area is underlain by sparse outcrops of medium to coarse grained, coarsely blocky-jointed granodiorite. No sulphide mineralization was identified. Soil sampling yielded generally sub-anomalous values. The source of the 1972 sediment sample copper anomaly was attributed to the main study area copper mineralization to the south, particularly the DDH W-3 & 4 region. The claims were later allowed to lapse.

    1981 Hinterland Resources In August of 1981, Hinterland Resources had Glen White Geophysical Consulting Services Ltd of Vancouver BC complete a pole-dipole induced polarization survey over an overlapping area north of the main 1971 IP chargeability anomaly (Pezzot 1981). The survey grid area included drills holes W-3 to W-5, the main surface biotite quartz gneiss showings and potential on-strike extension to the west-northwest. A total of 10.0 km of grid line was surveyed, on seven 200m spaced, north-south lines. The survey identified a large west-northwest trending chargeability anomaly on the northwest corner of the survey grid. This anomaly has a coincident resistivity low, is open ended off the grid to the northwest and measures at least 950m long and up to 300m wide. A second prominent NE-SW trending chargeability anomaly is located on the southwest corner of the grid. This anomaly is open to the southwest, measures at least 750 metres long by about 100m wide and appears to bisect the larger WNW anomaly at the IP survey‟s highest individual chargeability station value. Pezzot attributes this narrow and lengthy anomaly to a fault-shear structure. Two other narrow WNW trending chargeability anomalies are located on the east side the survey area. Both of these anomalies are open ended to the southeast, measure more than 400m long and are attributed to sulphide enriched target biotite gneiss. The claims were later allowed to lapse. 2006 Hard Creek Nickel Corp. In the summer of 2006, a prospecting and rock sampling program was conducted by Hard Creek Nickel Corp (Ross 2007). The program followed up on minor chromite and sulphide occurrences reported by Nixon et al (1990) within the package of ultramafic-volcanic rocks (Lunar Creek Ultramafic Complex) found on the west-central side of the Lunar claim block. Ross (2007) reports that several gossanous areas, quartz veins, minor malachite stains and sulphide occurrences were found in the southeastern portions of the target area, almost solely in the gabbro-diorite unit. Similar sulphide occurrences were found in the northwestern part of the complex, although quartz veins and gossans were less abundant. The majority of ultramafic outcrops encountered lacked significant sulphide mineralization. All sulphide showings, malachite stained zones, quartz veins and chromite schlieren encountered were sampled. A total of 40 rock samples were collected and submitted to Acmelabs (Vancouver BC), where they were analyzed for Au, Pt and Pd by fire assay and also by multi-element ICP-ES. Analytical results for total and sulphide nickel from all lithologies were uniformly low. Ross comments that the potential for economic nickel mineralization in the Lunar Claims is considered to be low. Copper and gold analyses returned a small number of interesting values, however, these samples were from narrow quartz veins and the likelihood of an economic copper-gold deposit does not appear high. One magnetite-rich chromite pod sampled from chromite schlieren hosted by dunite returned over 1 g/tonne Pt. The aerial extent, however, of chromite bearing dunite is rather small. The claims were later allowed to lapse.

    7.0 GEOLOGIC SETTING & MINERALIZATION 7.1 Regional Geology & Mineralization Regional Geology (Modified after Nixon et al 1997, Diakow et al 1993 and Woodsworth et al 1991) Regionally, the Lunar property is located within the major morphogeological Intermontane Belt of the Canadian Cordillera. The Intermontane Belt is divided into four tectnostratigraphic terranes, two of which, the Stikine and Quesnel accreted terranes, are represented in the property region. These two terranes are mainly composed of island arc, plutonic and sedimentary rocks of Late Triassic and Early Jurassic age. Rocks of the Quesnel terrane include mid Triassic to lower Jurassic Takla Group mafic volcanics (with minor sediments) and also the mid Triassic Lunar Creek Ultramafic Complex. The oldest lithologies in the region are found in the Stikine terrane. These are the mixed greenstone metamorphics and undivided sediments of the Asitka Group. Also included within the Stikine are mixed marine sediments and volcanics of both the upper Triassic Stuhini Group and lower Jurassic Hazelton Group. Intruding the Asitka and Stuhini Groups are upper Jurassic quartz monzonites. Early Jurassic to Cretaceous Guichon Suite granitoids, particularly the Pitman pluton granites, intrude most older lithologies found in both the Stikine and Quesnel terranes. The northwest trending early Jurassic Pitman granitiod pluton intrusives are well foliated and altered from greenschist to local amphibolite facies assemblages, particularly along and near faults. Regional structure is dominated by a system of northwest, north and east trending faults that reflect a complex history of sinistral strike-slip and extensional deformation. Structures range from brittle to ductile mylonitic shear fabrics. The major northwest trending Kutcho fault defines the boundary between the Stikine and Quesnel terranes and may have been active as early as mid Jurassic with movement continuing to Eocene. Other prominent fault structures of east-west trends include the Pitman River fault and an unnamed fault southwest of the property. The region hosts numerous lengthy and notable north trending river valleys which likely mark fault structures; i.e. the Lunar Creek Valley which cuts through the property. Regional Mineralization

    Most of the area‟s mineral occurrences occur within either the Asitka greenstone metamorphic or the Pitman granite lithologies. Occurrences within the Pitman granites are dominated by copper - molybdenum ± gold & silver enriched porphyry or skarn type mineralization. A single porphyry related occurrence is noted on the south border of the unnamed quartz monzonite intrusive within the Stikine terrane. Mineral occurrences within the Asitka greenstone metamorphic rocks include epigenetic vein hosted and disseminated copper, lead, silver and zinc showings and also syngenetic stratabound gold-silver-base metal showings. Ultramafic rocks of the Lunar Creek Complex contain occurrences of small chromite pods and copper showings. The Lunar property hosts four British Columbia Minfile mineral occurrences: 094E 010, 060, 061 & 204. All four occurrences report varying copper-molybdenum ± gold & silver enriched porphyry or skarn type mineralization. The immediate surrounding area around the property includes twelve other Minfile occurrences. Table 7.1 summarizes the general characteristics of these regional mineral occurrences and Figure 7.1 illustrates their locations.

Copper anomalous stream sediments and prospecting led to the discovery of porphyry copper (± molybdenum) related mineralization hosted in granitiod lithologies. Copper mineralization is reported to occur chiefly as bornite with sparse chalcopyrite, controlled by dykes and fractures. Kalnins reports that there are three main fracture orientations which have a bearing on copper mineralization: 300/60NE, 200/38W and 235/49NW. Other regional noteworthy deposits in the greater region include the Kemess North Deposit (136.5 billion tonnes 0.29% Cu, 0.558 gpt Au, 2.1 gpt Ag indicated resource – BC Minfile 094E 021; located about 95 km south) and the Kutcho Creek VMS Deposit (11.3 million tonnes of 2.19% Cu, 3.28% Zn, 0.39 gpt Au & 36.7 gpt Ag measured + indicated resource - JDS 2011; located about 60 km northwest).

    7.2 Local Geology & Mineralization Local Geology

    The Lunar property is located on the east side of the major northwest trending Kutcho fault and is dominantly underlain by granitic lithologies of the early Jurassic Pitman pluton (Guichon Suite - Quesnel Terrane). The mid Triassic Lunar Creek Ultramafic Intrusion Complex and small slivers of mid Triassic to lower Jurassic Takla volcanics rocks are found on the southwest portion of the property (Figure 7.2a). The most abundant rocks within the property limits are the Pitman granitoids which vary from leucocratic granite to granodiorite to biotite-quartz-hornblende monzonite gneiss. Reports indicate that the granite and granodiorite phases are most common, being medium to coarse grained and coarsely blocked or jointed. Early geological mapping in the central part of the property identified bands of „meta-sediments‟ which were interpreted to be screens or rafts in the granites (Taylor 1971). Mapping by Ryback-Hardy in 1972 redefined and refined a number of earlier lithological and mineralization assumptions. He concluded that the property‟s dominant copper mineralization is controlled by west-northwest trending, steep north dipping biotite quartz monzonite schist/shear zones likely of intrusive origin (i.e. biotite-quartz gneiss) and not a metasediment as earlier thought. Within these bands, a complete gradation of textures exists from schistose to gneissic to schlieren and at times the bands appear migmatitic. Ryback-Hardy reports that the schist-gneissic bands follow the contact between biotite-quartz monzonite and hornblende monzonite units and can be truncated or offset by north-south trending vertical fractures/faults, which are also widespread. Frost heaving of the large granitic blocks has emphasized the fracturing, reducing most outcrops to large areas of slumping and blocky rubble. Ryback-Hardy reports that a highly altered fine grained white feldspathic dyke rock occurs on the south contact of a mineralized gneissic band, paralleling its WNW trend. This unit measures about 900 metres long and has a varying width of 60 to 3 metres. The dyke rock is highly silicified and saussuritized and contains pyrite with occasional chalcopyrite disseminations. Within the dyke body, alteration is reported to decrease eastward where inclusions of unaltered monzonite are found. Recent thin section analyses of four rocks collected by the author during the property visit have expanded greatly on Ryback-Hardy‟s 1972 work. Colombo (2011) subdivided the four samples into two different suites. Three of the rocks (MMR-4, 4b & 4c) are classified as metamorphic schists-gneisses made up of quartz, albite, biotite and hornblende, while the fourth rock (MMR-5) is a medium to coarse grained granite consisting of plagioclase, quartz and K-feldspar, which is overprinted by epidote, chlorite and lesser white mica. The following is an excerpt from Colombo‟s summary description of the gneissic suite. „The gneissic suite of rocks have a metamorphic schistosity which is mainly defined by biotite, as well as hornblende, which is a relict mineral that indicates the rocks underwent a medium grade (amphibolitic?) tectonometamorphic event. Epidote, chlorite, white mica, magnetite, pyrite and chalcopyrite were introduced in the three samples after the end of the metamorphic recrystallization, as they define post-kinematic microstructures. A tentative paragenetic sequence based on the microstructural observations of the metamorphic suite and granitic rocks are sketched out‟.

    Granitic Rock Property structures reflect the regional tenor being dominated by a system of northwest, north and eastward trending faults, shears and fractures. Rock structures range from brittle joints and faults to ductile mylonitic shear fabrics. The major northwest trending steep dipping Kutcho fault is located on the southwestern limit of the property. The Lunar Creek valley which cuts through the property marks a brittle north trending fault zone. The west-northwest trending gneissic bands within the Pitman Pluton contain elevated concentrations of copper and can be offset or truncated by north-south trending vertical fractures/faults, which are also widespread. Profound structural disruption is documented in the Lunar Creek Ultramafic Complex. The geology and structures of the Lunar Creek Ultramafic Complex are well documented by Nixon et al (1997). The Complex is an elongate body which measures more than 11km long and up to 4km wide. The northwesterly trending axis of the intrusion parallels the structural grain of the region. The Complex is typical of Alaskan-type ultramafic intrusions as it contains most of the typical lithologies; dunite, chrome rich dunite, wehrlite, olivine wehrlite, olivine clinoproxene, clinoproxenite and gabbroic-dioritic rocks. The Lunar Creek Complex is bound to the west by the Kutcho fault and to the east by ductile shears against the Takla Group volcanics and Pitman granites. Northwest trending, steeply dipping structures that are subparallel to the Kutcho fault are dominant within the Complex, with less abundant steeply dipping NE and east trending faults. The Complex has been intensely disrupted creating a mosaic of disconnected blocks. Both Ross (2006) and Nixon et al (1997) describe the economic mineral potential for the Complex as low, containing only minor chromite and copper stained showings. Takla volcanics rocks are metamorphosed from middle greenschist to lower amphibolite grade facies and include volcanic, volcaniclastic and sedimentary rocks (dark grey to greenish grey augite and plagioclase-phyric actinolitic schists, amphibole-biotite wacke or tuff and dark grey to black well-foliated amphibolites). Granodiorite dykes emanating from the Pitman Pluton intrude both rock groups.

    Local Mineralization The priority exploration area for the Lunar Property is located in the centre part of the claim block within an area measuring about 2.5 km by 1.5 km. This area is underlain by metamorphosed and fractured Pitman granites and includes the property‟s notable mineral occurrences, IP geophysical and soil anomalies. Historical exploration efforts, which have been largely confined to this priority area, have identified porphyry related copper mineralization in two small copper skarns and at least three parallel zones of west-northwest trending, steep north dipping shears or gneissic bands. The gneissic bands are the property’s primary copper mineralization target, as they contain irregular disseminations of fine grained pyrite, magnetite and chalcopyrite (rare bornite) with common malachite staining. Exposures of malachite coated fractures are widely noted on the property, particularly the along cliff exposures in the Lunar Creek valley. The dimensions of most copper enriched zones discovered to date are not fully known, being masked by glacial overburden and not fully outlined by geophysical means. For the purposes of brevity, the author will not detail each of the individual copper occurrences of the Lunar property. In depth descriptions of most of the property showings can be found in the following references Jones 1970, Taylor 1971, Ryback-Hardy 1972 and Taylor 1976. The following is a summary account of the foremost Lunar mineral occurrences identified to date. Zones 1 & 2 copper-garnet-epidote skarn (BC Minfile 094E 204 “West 8”)

    Zone 2 shows weak and erratic pyrite and chalcopyrite mineralization, with strong limonite weathering. Analytical results from surface chips samples collected from these skarn zones are detailed in the table above, with Zone 1 yielding the best results of 0.46% copper and 1.16 ppm silver over 7.62 metres. Detailed property geology maps indicate that there are a number of other small skarn-like showings scattered about the central property area; examples are the BC Minfiles 094E 060 “Mack” and 094E 061 “Earl”. West-northwest shears or gneissic bands (BC Minfile 094E 010 “West 16”) At least three (perhaps up to five?) parallel zones of copper enriched biotite quartz monzonite schist/gneiss bands (metagranites) are mapped in the centre of the claim block. These copper enriched zones trend 280º to 305º, have steep north dips and contain irregular disseminations of fine grained pyrite, magnetite and chalcopyrite (rare bornite) with common malachite staining. The alternating gneissic bands have textures from schistose to gneissic to schlieren and at times appear migmatitic and can be offset or truncated by north-south trending vertical fractures/faults. The recent thin section study shows that these copper enriched gneisses have experienced an amphibolite grade metamorphic event and that epidote, chlorite, white mica, magnetite, pyrite and chalcopyrite were introduced after the end of metamorphic recrystallization (Colombo 2011). Outcroppings of these main exploration target zones are irregularly spread throughout the centre of the property. Best exposures identified to date are located on the west side of the Lunar Creek valley in an area where detailed geological mapping was competed. Other exposures have been documented within and on both sides of the Lunar Creek valley. Descriptions by Ryback-Hardy (1972) indicate that the mineralized zones comprise alternating biotite-quartz monzonite and biotite-quartz schist/gneiss bands, which have interpreted widths up to 370m and lengths of 240m. The density and dimensions of the parallel zones is not well understood as overburden cover as greatly hindered geological interpretation. The distance between two of the property‟s more significant band assemblages is estimated at more than 350 metres. In 1971, El Paso Mining and Milling Company drilled five shallow diamond drill holes (DDH W1 to W5) in the main property area, testing an IP chargeability anomaly, two soil anomalies and a surface showing. A total of 905 metres (2,970 feet) of AQ diameter core was drilled. All holes, except W-4 (no samples collected) yielded anomalous copper values over varying, generally narrow intervals. Hole W-3, drill testing a surface showing hosted in the biotite monzonite gneiss bands, reported the best results of 53.95 metres of 0.23% copper, 0.8 ppm silver and 0.3 ppm gold (including 3.05 metres of 1.2% copper, 5.5 ppm silver and 0.65 ppm gold). The table below includes the drilling summary results.

    W-3 200 -53 152.7 Surface Cu

    Showing

    Drilled under surface copper showing. Moderately sheared monzonite and „metasediments‟, with secondary biotite, chalcopyrite and a little bornite mineralization. 69.19-123.14m: 53.95m of 0.23% Cu, 0.8ppm Ag, 0.3ppm Au including 3.05m of 1.20% Cu, 5.5ppm Ag, 0.65ppm Au

    W-5 188 -51 175.3 1970 Soil anomaly

    Drilled beneath soil copper anomaly. Mainly monzonite with bands of „metasediments‟. Very little sulphide mineralization. Highest assay 0.14% Cu over 3.05m.

    Lunar Soil & Silt Sampling Surveys A total of 1,014 soil samples were collected from a control grid located in the center of the property, with most sample sites being on the west side of Lunar Creek and a few soil lines on the east side of the valley (Figure 7.2b). Soil samples were collected in three phases between 1970 and 1976 and were variably analyzed for copper, zinc, molybdenum, silver and gold. Past explorationists used copper as the primary element for identifying areas of prospective mineralization, as the other limited suite of elements yielded either sub-anomalous or erratic values. Property soils are very poorly developed consisting of slumped glacial debris and/or locally derived rock-grit materials. Overburden cover is generally thin and irregular being limited to lower slopes and valley bottoms. Both the glacial-related cover and the highly irregular local topography appear to have a significant effect on the distribution of copper in soil. Taylor (1971) reports that samples collected along elevated sandy ridges and small knobs yield background values, while samples collected from depressions often contain elevated copper results. Taylor also states that the copper in soil anomalies do not well coincide with elevated mineralization revealed in the 1971 drilling. Despite generally poor quality soil, the sampling has coarsely outlined a broad copper anomaly north of the historic grid baseline measuring about 950m by 1000m. This broad anomaly is loosely defined by numerous individual spot high copper values which often can be extrapolated for only a single additional line width of up to 60 metres. This anomaly appears to be mapping areas of very thin glacial cover, as sample materials are likely derived from local lithological detritus. Soil sampling on the east side of Lunar Creek has identified an open ended broad low grade copper anomaly (100 ppm contour), likely marking an eastward main zone extension.
