Cautionary Notes to U.S. Investors


The United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) permits U.S. mining companies, in their filings with the SEC, to disclose only those mineral deposits that the company can economically and legally extract or produce. We use certain terms on this website (or in press releases available on this website) such as "measured resources", "indicated resources", and "inferred resources", which the SEC guidelines strictly prohibit U.S. registered companies from including in their filings with the SEC. U.S. Investors are urged to consider closely the disclosure in our Form 20-F, File No. 000-49919, which may be secured from us, or from the SEC's website at http://www.sec.gov/edgar.shtml

This website contains information about adjacent properties on which we have no right to explore or mine. We advise U.S. investors that the SEC's mining guidelines strictly prohibit information of this type in documents filed with the SEC. U.S. investors are cautioned that mineral deposits on adjacent properties are not indicative of mineral deposits on our properties.
