  10. Ianna Gold Project lies within the Guiana Shield, a palaeo-Proterozoic granite-greenstone terrane (2.2by) forming the northern part of the Amazon craton. • Guyana’s primary gold deposits are commonly found near: • the margins of granitoids stocks that intruded the greenstone belts. • Fault/shear zones within the greenstone belts are also potential areas of gold deposits. REGIONAL GEOLOGICAL SETTING

  11. PROSPECT AREAS Project area includes 12 known prospects 13 medium scale claims 55 km2

  12. FIRST PHASE EXPLORATION • First stage exploration focussed on 3 of the 12 known prospects: • King Ransom • Stone Hill • Chow Wow

  13. DRILL PROGRAM Completed small scout drilling program to identify broad zones of Au mineralisation to confirm potential for large tonnage resource. • 2,252 metres • 36 holes (average depth 62.5 metres) • Stone Hill -18 holes < 60 metres • Kings Ransom - 16 holes < 70 metres • Chow Wow - 2 holes - 100 metres each

  14. First DRILL RESULTS – April 2011 Significant down hole intercepts > 10m and averaging > 1 g/t Au (0.5 g/t cut off) 22% of all holes drilled contain intercepts > 10m @ >1g/t Au (9 intercepts >10m in 8 holes)
