INTRODUCTION
This report summarizes 3 days of prospecting, carried out between October 27 and 29 , 2007 on the west side of the Salmon mineral claims towards the Salmon River bottom. The purpose of the work was to collect silt and rock samples to be assayed.
LOCATION, ACCESS AND PHYSIOLOGY
The Salmon claims (mineral tenure # 505354) are located in the Skeena Mining Division, BCGS Map # 104B010, latitude 56 04' N, longitude 130 03' W (see Fig. 1 Location Map).
The Salmon Claim properties are underlain by volcanic rock of the Unuk River Formation of the Hazelton Group. These strata are intruded by the early Juarassic Texas Creek Batholith on the west side (Minefile Report, 104B 112). (See Fig. 2 Geology Map)
Access to the east side of the Salmon Claims is by road from Stewart, traveling through to Hyder, Alaska to approximately 15 miles on the Granduc road. The Salmon claims border the Granduc road at this point. The Salmon claims are approximately 17 miles from Stewart. The claim is accessible by foot, but helicopter is the best means of access. During the winter months, if the Granduc road is plowed, the eastside of the claims can be accessed by vehicle; if the road is not plowed the claims are accessible by snow machine.
The terrain on the east side of the claims is very rough and steep with shrub trees and alders. Moving to the west side of the claims, the elevation drops down very steeply into the Salmon Valley (150 meters elevation). All the old streams that came from the west are now dry as the Salmon glacier has receded back.
PROPTERY STATUS
The Salmon Claim is 19 units and 343.11 hectares (see Fig. 3 Claim Map). The claim is registered to James (Jim) Carl Marx (Owner/Operator). Fieldwork is being carried out to determine an economic assessment of the property. A statement of work was filed on the MTO system, January 25th, 2008 (Event # 4192069).
HISTORY OF EXPLORATION
The Salmon Claims border the Pinnacle and Mountain Boy operation that have undergone extensive prospecting, drilling and exploration. The Salmon claims also border the New Cantech Venture claims to the north.
The Salmon Glacier Report (Mineral File Number: 104B 112) details two exploration events on the Salmon Mineral claim (see Fig. 3 Claim Map, for location of historical exploration). In 1929, a 30-centimetre sample from a quartz vein was assayed with 9.6 grams, per tonne of gold, 929.83 grams per tonne of silver, 1.3 per cent copper, 0.4 percent lead and 0.4 percent zinc

(Starr, 1929 Property File). Exploration was completed on the Glacier Group in 1979 (Kretschmar, 1979) but they did not relocate the original 1 to 1.5 metre wide vein.
FIELDWORK2007
From October 27 to 29,2008 we prospected along the Salmon River, on the west side of the Salmon Mineral claims. During this time period 5 silt samples and 4 rock samples were collected to be sent to assay (See Fig. 4 Salmon Claim Sample Location Map). However, upon mapping the UTM coordinates it was determined that SS 4 and SS 5 were collected from the Indi 11 claim to the north of the Salmon claim. Below is the sample log that details the work completed on the Salmon Claim (3 silt samples and 4 rock samples). The total area prospected, not including SS4 and SS5, was approximately 0.15 sq km.

TECHNICAL DATA AND INTERPRETATION 3 silt samples and 4 rock samples collected from the Salmon Claim were sent in to be assayed at Assayers Canada 8282 Sherbrooke Street, Vancouver BC. A multi-element ICP-AES analysis was completed using the agua regia digestion method for the silt samples. The rock samples were checked for Au content.

CONCLUSION
In our opinion, the assay results were inconclusive and there needs to be future prospecting done to ascertain the extent of the claim. There were no anomalous results.
ITEMIZED COST STATEMENT The following cost statement has been revised from the original submitted through MTO online on January 25th, 2008 (Event # 4192069). The assay amounts and prospecting time have been reduced to reflect the 2 silt samples (SS4 and SS5) that were taken from an adjacent claim.
