| Additional comments provided by the Company | ||||||
| Puma Exploration is concentrating its New Brunswick exploration
activities on the Nicholas-Denys mineral property, located near Bathurst. The
Company expects to be able to outline enough ore to begin mine development,
with a target resource of three (3) to five (5) million tonnes. In fact, a new resource calculation for the Hache and Shaft lenses will be performed as soon as the analyses of the approximately 7,500 samples taken from the 71 holes become available. Out of its initial 3.5-million dollar exploration budget, 2.5 million have been used for the drilling campaign. |
