ROUYN-NORANDA, QC,
The Harker Gold Property is located 5 km south of the Destor Porcupine Fault Zone (DPFZ) host of many important gold mines in the Timmins - Porcupine Gold Mining Camp (over 65 millions ounces of gold). The Holt McDermot Mine (1.3 million ounces) and the Harker Halloway Mine (1.4 million ounces) are located on the DPFZ about 5 km north -northeast of the property.
The 56 holes completed by Lounor to date have intersected the mineralized zones. The results of the program have proven the gold zone to be over 425 metres in strike length and to a vertical depth of 175 metres. It is open to the east, to the west and at depth. Results from the first 48 holes have been released: Press releases dated

To date, the 56 holes drilled have intersected the structure containing the mineralized zones. The continuity of the structure and the gold zones contained herein are an important feature of the mineralization in the Harker area.
The success has prompted the management of the Company to continue the diamond drilling program. One diamond drill is actively drilling on the property to prove up the gold zone to the west and to the east on a 25 x 75 meter spacing. Channel sampling of the surface exposure of the vein is completed and has been evaluated.
