1.0 Summary

Vendome Resources Corp. (“Vendome” or “Company”) is a Toronto, Canada based public

mineral exploration company. On December 1, 2011 Vendome announced that its wholly- owned Mexican subsidiary (Vendome Minas, S.A. de C.V.) had entered into an agreement to acquire from Camsim Minas S.A. de C.V. (“Camsim”) an earn-in option for a 50% undivided

interest in and to the San Javier Mine property, located within the municipality of Malinaltepec, State of Guerrero, Mexico. Vendome paid CDN $75,000 cash and issued 1,000,000 common

shares to Camsim upon signing of the earn-in option agreement. Vendome has also agreed to issue 1,000,000 common shares to Camsim on each of the first and second anniversaries of the effective date of the agreement, and make a final cash payment of CDN $250,000 to Camsim on

the third anniversary date.

Vendome entered into an agreement via its wholly-owned Mexican subsidiary (Vendome Minas, S.A. de C.V.) to acquire from Camsim Minas S.A. de C.V. (“Camsim”) an earn-in option for a

50% undivided interest in and to the La Diana property, located within the municipality of Malinaltepec, State of Guerrero, Mexico on September 2, 2010, which was amended on February 23, 2012. The amended date became the anniversary date for the following payments. Vendome

paid CDN $75,000 cash and issued 1,000,000 common shares to Camsim upon signing of the earn-in option agreement. Vendome has also agreed to issue 1,800,000 common shares to

Camsim on the first anniversary and 1,000,000 shares on the second anniversary of the effective date of the amended agreement, and make a final cash payment of CDN $250,000 to Camsim on the third anniversary date. Vendome agreed to a work commitment of $2,600,000 over the three

year period.

The San Miquel property was acquired (100% of the mineral rights) from Santa Claws Minas, S.A. DE C.V. for $25,000 and 2,500,000 Vendome shares on August 3, 2011.

The San Javier, La Diana,and San Miquel polymetallic projects are located 135 kilometres southeast of the city of Hermosillo, State of Guerrero, in northwestern Mexico. The San Javier

project is contained in a single concession of 253 hectares. This is the only project on which exploration apart from satellite imagery has been carried out.

ACA Howe International Limited (“ACA Howe”) has visited the property and was responsible for running Vendome’s exploration program.

In the spring of 2012, Howe conducted and managed an early stage exploration program on the San Javier property on behalf of Vendome. The detailed results of this program are given in section 9 of this report. Two drill targets were identified during this program and will drilled

during phase 1. The present satellite imagery suggests the potential for similar targets on the other properties. Vendome has nearly 17,000 hectares between the three properties.

Broad Oak recommends a two phase exploration program on this large property position, and the details are given in section 26 of this report. Phase one is budgeted at US$3,210,800, and phase

two which is contingent on the results of phase one is budgeted at US$3,124,550. These programs should be completed in the next 12-24 months.

2.0 Introduction

Broad Oak Associates (“Broad Oak”) was engaged by Vendome Resources Corp. to provide an

independent technical report. This report was prepared under the direction of Geoffrey S. Carter, P. Eng., a principal of Broad Oak and a Qualified Person. A site visit was made to the property on July 6 and 7, 2010 and again on December 5 and 6, 2011 when grab samples were taken. The

extensive database that Vendome has assembled in their offices in Toronto, Canada has been made fully available to Broad Oak.

The exploration conducted on the properties was carried out by ACA Howe for Vendome in 2012.

3.0 Reliance on Other Experts

Broad Oak relied upon Vendome personnel and consultants and their corporate counsel for

information regarding the current status of legal title of the property, property agreements, corporate structure, permits and any outstanding environmental orders.

4.0 Property Description and Location

The Projects are located approximately135 kilometres east-northeast from the city of Acapulco,

and approximately 4 kilometres east of the village of Barranca Panal, in the south east part of the State of Guerrero, southern Mexico. The property is approximately 6 hours from Acapulco by road via Marquela. Access to the San Javier property is possible by 4 wheel drive vehicle in

good weather, but difficult in the rainy season. Access to La Diana and San Miquel is very limited as there are few roads.

As of April 28, 2005 the historical distinction between exploration and exploitation concessions was replaced by the establishment of mining concessions, which confers upon its holders the

rights to exploration, exploitation and extraction of substances. The Project consists of three Mining Concessions which covers 16,865 hectares.

The duration of the concessions is 50 years from the date of request with the potential to renew

for a further 50 years. Rental fees must be paid twice a year (end of January and end of July). Effective from January 1, 2012 fees required during the first and second years in Mexican Pesos are $8.05 per hectare; for the third and fourth years a payment of $7.60 per hectare; during the

fifth and sixth year payment of $15.72 per hectare; during the seventh and eighth years payment of $31.62; in the ninth and tenth years payment of $63.22 per hectare and from the eleventh year

payment of $111.27. Payment for the San Javier project concession in the year 7 (2012) is $7,999.86 Mexican Pesos. Further payments are required for the La Diana and San Miquel concessions.

5.0 Accessibility, Climate, Local Resources, Infrastructure and Physiography

From the city of Acapulco the project area is reached in approximately 6 hours if road conditions

are good (O’Dowd, 2009). From Acapulco one drives east on road MEX200 to the town of Marquela (2 hours). From Marquela one drives north to Barranca del Panal, the last settlement before the project which is located 4 kilometres to the east.

From Marquela to the project requires approximately 4 hours of a very sinuous and, and in some

parts, damaged road. The last portion of the road leading to the project area is in very bad condition and a four wheel drive vehicle is recommended if the road is not upgraded. Access might be a real challenge during the rainy season (August to October). The State government is

in the process of improving the road going from Xochiatenco up to the village of Barranca del Panal.

Climate in the project area is temperate. Highs reach 35º C during the day while midnight lows

reach approximately 10º C. The area is heavily forested, mostly by pines. Lumber companies are known to have been active in the area in the past. Roads in the area derive from that activity. None is currently active

At the project, there is no electricity, telephone line or running water. Cellular phone service is

not available at this time on the property. The mine camp is represented by a few wooden shacks which require a lot of work to make liveable. An old power line used to connect Barranca del Panal to the mine site. A request has already been filed to re-establish this connection to the

federal electricity system. This process has not been initiated as of the date of this report. A small river separates the campsite from most of the veins. A bridge will eventually have to be

built if heavy equipment has to be taken to the east side. An alternate road access could also be evaluated and developed. Satellite communication equipment was used but the rugged terrain made its use workable but unreliable.

Relief is very rugged. The base of the valley stands at approximately 1,400 metres ASL while ridges reach 2,000 metres. The rugged terrain makes it very difficult to develop and maintain the

local infrastructure which is minimal at this point.

6.0 History

The State of Guerrero contains numerous precious metal deposits and mines. Within the State of Guerrero, Goldcorp operates the Los Filos mines (60 MT, 0.991g/t Au), located in the Nukay district, some 150 kilometres northwest of the project and Farallon Resources just started

production on the G-9 deposit (2.18 Mt, 3 g/t Au, 209 g/t Ag, 1.48% Cu, 1.32% Pb and 11% Zn) located in the Campo Morado district some 210 kilometres to the northwest of the project as well

(these numbers are as of 2009).

In the late 80’s and early 90’s, the family decided to develop some the known veins of the

property. A small 30 tpd flotation mill was constructed on the east side of the Mixtecapa River, across and slightly upriver from the old campsite. The heavy material was then transported

through the river. According to Cesar Toledo who lived on site for 8 months at the time, the mill operated at a rate of 25 tpd for at least 8 months. He estimates that at least 6,000 tonnes were processed. This number could not be confirmed by members of the Larequi family at the time of

the field visits. It is clear that there are no good records of the historical production at the mine and of the tonnage processed at the plant. Limited production from Veta Ancha (surface trench)

and Veta Cristo Rey (from a 80 metre long adit) were processed at the plant (possibly 6,000 to 7,000 tonnes, pers. Comm., Cesar Toledo) while material from Veta del Tajo (small pit near the campsite and on the same side of the river as the campsite) was apparently hand-picked and

shipped directly to smelters in Mexico (250 tonnes, pers. Comm., Felix Larequi). According to the Larequi’s, vein material was extracted from 7 different veins or portions of veins over the

Page 15: Vendome ni 43 101

Vendome Properties 15 Broad Oak Associates

years. Broad Oak cannot verify these production figures at this time. The historical estimate is not being treated as a current estimate and the historical estimates should not be relied upon as a current estimate.

Two holes were drilled by the Mexican government (Larequi, personal communication, 2012) while the mine was operating. The results of that core drilling were apparently never given to

the owners. Geologist Cesar Toledo mentioned that he saw the core and confirms the presence of mineralized structures. They were drilled down dip of Veta del Tajo and Veta Mixteco where

a stockwork zone is observed in the river. There is no known geology map of the property. Sr. Cesar Toledo confirmed that he was the only ``geologist`` on site for the Larequi’s (8 months) and that he was in charge of feeding the mill exclusively. All activities apparently ceased in

1993 because of low metal prices. The property has been idle from that time until 2009. Toledo still acts as an experienced prospector and has a lot of knowledge of the local geology.

However, he does not have a P.Geo. designation and his formal training as a geologist is unknown by ACA Howe or Broad Oak. He is not an independent Qualified Person in accordance with Canadian securities commissions’ National Instrument 43-101 and as defined in

the CIM Standards on Mineral Resources and Reserves. In any event his work on the San Javier property was carried out approximately 20 years prior to the implementation of National

Instrument 43-101 and therefore he is not familiar with the instrument or the CIM Standards.

In 2009, limited prospecting and sampling was performed, initially by Camsim, and then by First

Gold during the Company’s due diligence process. O’Dowd (2009) collected 12 samples from at least 8 different veins. Two of the veins ended up being located outside of the San Javier

concession. Two of the samples were damaged during the shipment to the laboratory and were eliminated because of possible contamination. Mr. O`Dowd is an independent Qualified Person in accordance with Canadian securities commissions’ National Instrument 43-101 and as defined

in the CIM Standards on Mineral Resources and Reserves. No further work was carried out by First Gold and the property was not acquired by that Company.

7.0 Geological Setting and Mineralization

Regional geology is shown in Figure 6 (O’Dowd, 2009) and is a compilation of Mexican

government 1:250,000 scale geology maps E14-8-Chilpancingo (Consejo de Recurso Minerales, 1998) and E14-11-Acapulco (Consejo de Recurso Minerales, 1994). The project is found within the southern portion of the precious metal belt of Mexico. Little is known about the geology of

the region. The area is part of the Mixteca Terrane. This structural province is considered to be a pre-Mesozoic regionally metamorphosed nucleus of plutonic, volcanic and sedimentary

lithologies. The exposure of this basement reflects the uplift of the southern continental margin of a cratonic nucleus. The presence of minor tin and tungsten on the property may be a reflection of this metamorphosed continental basement. North-south shortening structures

originated during Laramide orogenesis that ended during Paleocene age. These may be reflected in the project area as N-S and NE-SW property scale faults and lineaments. The terraine also

contains a relatively thin Cretaceous cover (Moran-Zenteno et al., 2007) of sediments (O’Dowd, 2009), as well as volcanic and sedimentary rocks of Tertiary age and granitic intrusions of unknown age.

To date there is no detailed map of the San Javier project area. The 1:250,000 scale mapping of

the area covering the property suggests that is entirely underlain by intrusions of granitic composition. The April 2012 fieldwork recognized two distinct rock units. To the south-west of the Mixtecapa River is a highly weathered (kaolinized?) rock that has been considered

previously to be granite, and has been referred to in earlier reports as the Boracho Granite. Examination of this unit by ACA Howe suggests that it may in fact be a rhyolite/dacite tuff, with

a minor flow component. To the north-east of the river is a much less weathered, much more competent unit than its neighbour across the river to the southwest. It is more easily recognizable as a granitic unit and is referred to in historical reports as the Maguey Granite.

The most recognized mineralized structures and the focus of mining and exploration to date

extend eastward from the Mixtecapa River into the Maguey Granite, and are best exposed on Cerro Maguey. To date minor mineralization has also been observed southwest of the river in the highly clay-altered (possibly) volcanic unit on Cerro Boracho. Past production at San Javier

comes from the Maguey Granite veins that extend from the river eastward a few hundreds of metres from the contact. However, a review of previous reports suggests that those structures

extend several hundreds of metres further east. Typical alteration along the structures include clay alteration (proximal and distal) and sericitization (proximal only).

In this region, all rock types but the Tertiary ones are mineralized, and it can be concluded that the epithermal system was active in the early-mid Tertiary. Typically in Mexico deep intrusive

activity during the Eocene and early Oligocene epoch was followed during the cooling event by a collapse event and the emplacement of mineralized epithermal systems. In San Javier, it appears that mineralized structures develop in the more brittle of the two granites of the region.

MINERALIZATION

To date, approximately ten veins have been discovered east of the Mixtecapa River and only one

lies west of the river. Seven of those have seen some small scale production. Because of the vegetation cover, the veins are poorly exposed along the slopes of the mountainous terrain forming the property. They are better exposed along creek beds. For this reason, it is quite

difficult to establish their extent .

The veins east of Mixtecapa River range from a minimum 50 centimetres to a maximum of 3-4 metres (e.g. Veta Ancha). They mostly strike in an E-W direction with a moderate dip to the

south (approx. 45o). However, diverging strikes and dips and cross cutting relationships were observed. Pinch and swell structures were also observed indicating that mineralized shoots are to be expected.

Stockwork structures appear to be present in some areas. The two drill holes completed near Veta Mixteco seem to have targeted such an area. The area west of Mixtecapa River contains an

approximate 85 metre vertical section of such coarse (1.8 metres) vein to fine (2 centimetres) mineralized stockwork. It is probable that systematic mapping and stripping will uncover more

mineralization of both types on the project.

8.0 Deposit Types

The polymetallic mineralization at San Javier (galena, arsenopyrite, pyrite, acanthite, sphalerite, chalcopyrite) is related to epithermal activity during the Tertiary era. This type of mineralization is found all along the metallogenic belt of Mexico (Sierra Madre, 2,000 km). It hosts some of

the most famous silver districts in the world (Fresnillo, Guanajuato and others). Typically, the mineralization can be found in extensive vein systems, in stockwork, in pipes or even

disseminated (Camprubi and Albinson, 2006). All rock types can host the mineralization but more ductile units are often favoured. Grades are extremely variable. Disseminated deposits can be very low grade (Peñasquito, 0.5 g/t Au) while bonanza grades are often observed in veins and

pipes (Fresnillo, + 1000 g/t Ag). Their metallogeny is also quite variable. Some are typically precious metal rich (Au>Ag or Ag>Au) while others are richer in base metals.

9.0 Exploration

Vendome’s 2012 (spring) exploration program was conducted and managed by ACA Howe

International Ltd. ACA Howe’s exploration activities involved satellite imagery analysis and interpretation, an extensive rock and soil sampling program on the San Javier Property, with focus on the western side of the concession as the Company is in the process of finalizing a

surface access agreement with the local community. The satellite imagery (Quickbird) work was carried out to outline property scale structures and to separate by spectral color and intensity

changes areas of strong clay and oxide alteration that could be related to hydrothermal activity. It was also used to attempt to recognize changes in lithology. The geochemical program primarily focused on soil, channel, grab and stream sediment sampling, plus limited prospecting.

Page 20: Vendome ni 43 101

Vendome Properties 20 Broad Oak Associates

In addition, grab samples were taken from veins on both the east and west side of the river in areas that were previously explored in order to confirm assay values reported from previous studies. Two water samples from Mixtecapa River were also taken.

SATELLITE (QUICKBIRD) IMAGERY

The regional view provided by the Quickbird image (Figure 9, A.C.A. Howe, 2012) shows several linear structures that are interpreted as regional fault systems. These are probably deep-

penetrating and would allow the lateral and upward movement of hydrothermal mineralizing fluids. Dark green patches represent basement complex rocks. These appear as “windows” through the more mottled buff/medium green coloured terrain which may be volcanic, mainly

tuffaceous cover. Cross-hatched areas are steep slopes to the opposite more gentle NE and E dip slopes to those volcanics.

Figure 10 shows the results of spectral imagery analysis. In this case this analysis was used to

show the presence of kaolinite (green and blue) and the presence of alunite (yellow and red). Alunite is generally considered to represent the alteration of plagioclase feldspar of volcanic rocks while kaolinite is the more general alteration product of feldspar. A narrow wedge-shaped

alunite alteration zone is found N and NNW of the San Javier property, and as small patches at Tajo, Ancha and several other sites surrounding the project. The linear nature of the main zone

suggests it is related to a major NNE-SSW regional structure. Interpretation has also outlined a NNE trending zone of enhanced silicification and (Fe) oxidation. Note that this alunite/silicification/Fe oxidation covers the NW quarter of the property.

In the immediate area of the San Javier property (Figure 11) there is a color change that reflects

the compositional and textural difference between the two main host rocks described under Regional Geology. As shown on the figure this includes the Maguey Granite as a dark greenish patch surrounded by a mottled buff and lighter green region covering the majority of the ground

in and around the project. This represents a felsic volcanic tuff. Several other dark green patches occur outside the project. All may represent windows through younger units to the metamorphic basement. Note the steep vs. gentle slopes of hills. The steepness may be due to

slumping of the tuffs or their sedimentary equivalents while the shallow slope may represent an approximate paleosurface and dipslope.

SOIL SAMPLING

Soil grids were established and figures 12-16 show the results. The upper part of the grid

showed only weakly scattered (maximum 7 g/t) silver values. Arsenic showed high values over the south half of the grid (maximum 5,850 ppm) while lead shows a similar anomaly (maximum 5,220 ppm) in the south half, but it provides a NNE trend, suggesting a dip (vein is going deeper)

in this direction. A similar, though weaker, response was seen in zinc with a maximum of 200 ppm. Strike/dip measurements of veins in the roadcuts show a similar NE dip direction. Highest

elevation here is 1,382 metres above sea level.

The lower part of the grid is set out on the east-facing slope between the Upper and Lower Tajo

access roads. Assay results suggest two weak anomalies in silver values, with a maximum of 16.1 ppm. Arsenic anomalies are focused in the south half of the grid and produce a broad NNE

trend. The maximum value was 8,130 ppm. Lead showed a similar broad anomaly in the south grid area, giving a maximum value of 9,180 ppm. A single sample in the NW (3130 ppm), coupled with a weaker aresenic anomaly from the same sample, suggests a second small parallel

NNE trend. Zinc values emphasize both trends and suggest a third parallel trend. These all indicate the probability of three separate veins coming to surface along these NNE trends. A

broad west side and less extensive east side may indicate a shallow to moderate west dip to the veins. Note that although the road at the south end has been disturbed material has probably not been moved more than a few meters.

ROAD CHIP CHANNEL SAMPLING

Three hundred and sixty-six channel samples were obtained along the Upper and Lower Tajo

roads between April 4 and April 16, 2012 (Figures 17-19). Vertical channel samples were collected from the outcrops along the road and horizontal channel samples crossed over the road. In general, the rock is so highly altered in this area that the use of a rock saw was not necessary

for sample collection. Vertical channel samples were spaced 5 metres apart and gathered over continuous 1-metre intervals, as high as reach allowed (typically 1-3 metres). The horizontal

channels also had 5 metre spacings and were sampled continuously, but comprised of 2 metre sample intervals. Not all horizontal channel samples were in situ, particularly along Lower Tajo Road; however, the material appeared local and very near to source and should therefore have no

effect on geochemical results. This extensively sampled area links with both soil grids, creating one large continuous sample zone immediately west of the river above Veta Tajo. The samples

were sent to SGS Laboratory in Durango for fire assay and ICP analysis.

Sampling focussed on the Veta Tajo area located 300 metres southwest of the historical San

Javier mine workings. It is believed the Veta Tajo is a previously unrecognized, unexplored and unexploited area of significant visible stockwork quartz veining that spans an 80 to 100 metre

vertical rise in the west bank of the river valley that transects the central property area.

Quartz veining in the Veta Tajo is stacked, horizontal to shallow-dipping and consists of:

a set of 0.8-1 metre thick veins dipping 40-60° to the east a second set of 25-40 centimetre thick veins dipping 25-35°

a third set of 2-5 centimetre thick veins dipping 0 to 15º

Select weighted averages for silver concentration over continuous chip sample lengths in the

Veta Tajo are as follows: (channel lengths are not true widths)

Veining appears to be associated with east-west structures cross-cutting a host rock previously identified as "old granite", which ACA Howe has re-interpreted as strongly silicified felsic

volcaniclastics. ACA Howe's field work also indicates that veining extends into areas north and south of Veta Tajo. Vendome management is extremely encouraged by these chip results in that

the potential for bulk silver mineralization in wall rock, in addition to high grade narrow vein mineralization has been confirmed.

STREAM SEDIMENT SAMPLING

On April 16, 2012 a total of 14 stream sediment samples were collected by Howe personnel

along the Mixtecapa River (Figure 20). Sampling began at the Veta Ancha mill area and followed the Mixtecapa River to the north boundary of the San Javier concession. Stream sediments were collected approximately every 50 metres along the western side of the river.

There was limited outcrop bordering the river along this 500 metre stretch; small to very large boulders occupied the river instead. The fourteenth sample, KGS-14, was taken from a nearly

dried up tributary by Veta Ancha approximately 40 metres inward from the Mixtecapa River. The sediment consisted of coarse sand here, as opposed to the fine silt and clay sediment in samples KGS-01 to KGS-13. These samples were sent to SGS Laboratory for ICP analysis.

None of the samples along the Mixtecapa River showed anomalous values. The sample taken from the dried tributary near Veta Ancha (KGS-14) showed 6 ppm Ag, 180 ppm As, 430 ppm Pb

and 518 ppm Zn, well above any of the other sample results. It is unknown at this time whether this is the result of sampling of mill tailings or if it is related to the Veta Ancha itself.

SELECT ROCK SAMPLING

Between April 2 and April 17, 2012 limited prospecting was done around the property, focusing

on the western side of the Mixtecapa River. Grab samples (KG-001 to KG-034 and DB-01 to

10.0 Drilling

It is reported by the owners of the property that Mexican government geologists drilled two holes

within the project. The owners were not given a copy of the results and neither the Company, ACA Howe, or Broad Oak have to date found a copy of those results.

No drilling has been carried out on these Properties by the current owners or joint venture partners.

11.0 Sampling Method, Analyses and Security

Sampling Methods and Approach

Representative continuous chip samples and most selected grab samples were removed from the outcrop surface by chipping with a geological hammer. The focus of the sampling was mainly on altered rock and vein material. The chip samples collected from vertical outcrops were taken

over 1 metre intervals and each channel was spaced 5 metres apart. Those samples collected over horizontal outcrops were taken over 2 metre intervals and also spaced 5 metres apart. All

rock samples were placed in labelled plastic bags and/or cloth bags and sealed.

Soil samples were collected using a trowel by first removing all vegetation and organic matter.

The soil samples were placed in labelled kraft paper envelopes and sealed. The 63 samples from Soil Grid A were collected every 10 metres, along lines that were spaced 25 metres apart. Soil

Grid B contains 127 samples that were collected every 10 metres, along lines spaced 10 metres apart.

Page 37: Vendome ni 43 101

Vendome Properties 37 Broad Oak Associates

The stream sediment samples were collected approximately every 50 meters along Mixtecapa River, but more specifically, in areas of reduced flow rates where settling of higher density (heavier) material was likely to occur. Samples were gathered using a trowel and then squeezed

by hand to eliminate the water. They were placed in labelled kraft paper soil sample envelopes and left out in the sun to dry.

GPS locations of the grids, stream sediment, water and select rock samples were recorded utilizing a handheld GPS receiver. The sample number, description, assay results and location

(UTM coordinates) were then compiled in a Microsoft Excel spreadsheet.

It is Broad Oak’s opinion that all of the sampling was carried out according to industry standards

and the samples are representative of mineralization at the Project.

A total of 618 samples (including field duplicates, blanks and standards) of rock, soil, stream sediment and water were collected during the April 2012 exploration program. Of these, 366

were rock chip samples, 46 were rock select (grab) samples, 190 were soil samples, 14 were stream sediment samples and 2 were water samples. All of these samples were sent to SGS Laboratory in Durango, Mexico for geochemical analyses.

SGS Durango is an internationally recognized independent ISO-certified lab; it conforms to the

requirements of the ISO/IEC 17025:2005 standard for the General Requirements for the Competence of Testing and Calibration Laboratories. It is a Standards Council of Canada Accredited Laboratory (No. 657) and conforms to requirements of CAN−P−1579 (Mineral

Analysis) and CAN−P−4E. Its scope of accreditation includes fire assay with Atomic Absorption Spectrometry (AAS) and gravimetric analysis for gold and silver; aqua regia

digestion, strong acid digestion and peroxide fusion by Inductively Coupled Plasma Optical Emission Spectrometry (ICP-OES), and 3 acid digest for Silver by AAS and titration methods for concentrates.

Methods used in the analysis of the San Javier samples included those described below. Based on historical results and budget allowed for assay costs no analysis was requested for Au

Sample Security

All chip and soil samples were collected by a 3-man sampling crew under the supervision of Karen Grey, GIT, with regular review by Dr. Duncan Bain, P.Geo. A numbered sample tag was placed in each bag and the number was also written with waterproof marker on the outside. Each

bag was then closed with plastic zip ties. All samples were placed in plastic pails (15 to 20 per pail) with snap-lock lids. The sample batch was written on each pail. All samples were driven to

the lab by a temporary employee of Camsim. He had no list of the samples nor was he informed where individual samples were taken from. He was under the supervision of a ACA Howe QP.

Sample Preparation

Method PRP85 was used to prepare rock, soil and stream sediment samples. Samples of <1.2 kg weight were dried, fine pulverised to a nominal 75μm using bowl-and-puck equipment. No preparation was carried out for the water samples.

Analytical Procedures ICP-40B was used to analyse 40 major and minor elements, including major base metals and

silver. This method involved Induced Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometry (ICP-MS). In plasma mass spectroscopy, the inductively coupled argon plasma (ICP) is used as an excitation source for the elements of interest. The plasma in ICP-MS is used to generate ions that are then

introduced to the mass spectrometer. These ions are then separated and collected according to their mass to charge ratios. The constituents of an unknown sample can then be identified and

measured. ICP-MS offers extremely high sensitivity to a wide range of elements. It is a multi- element analytical technique capable of determining an extremely wide range of elements to very low detection limits (typically sub ppb). Any samples with Ag values greater than 10,000 ppm

(10 g/T) were re-analyzed using method AAS-21B and/or FAG313. Any base metals with values greater than 10,000 ppm (1.00%) were re-analyzed using method ICP90Q.

AAS-21B is used to measure samples with greater than 10,000 ppm (10 g/T) Ag. It has an

analysis range from 0.3 g/t to 300 g/t. It uses a 2g sample that undergoes 3-acid Digest with an Atomic Absorption Finish (AA).

ICP90Q is used to achieve suitable precision and accuracy for ore grade base metals with values greater than 10,000 ppm (1.00%). This ore-grade analysis is typically performed using a sodium

peroxide fusion and ICP-AES (Atomic Absorption Spectroscopy) analyses.

FAG313. This method is used to achieve high precision for Ag-rich rock samples with

anticipated values greater than 5 g/t. It involves a fire assay and gravimetric finish. Fire assaying involves the mixture of sample and an appropriate flux that is then melted in a crucible. Upon

cooling the “slag” is removed. Various chemicals are then added to separate the various metals in the remaining bead. These are weighed individually to give an assay value. Gravimetric finish is a method of weighing the specific bead with a highly sensitive balance to provide more

precision to the resulting assay value.

25.0 Interpretation and Conclusions

The April 2012 Phase 1 exploration program carried out for Vendome by ACA Howe confirmed

the presence of highly anomalous assay values in silver (up to several thousand g/t in select samples), arsenic, lead and to a lesser extent Zinc, as had been described in historical reports on the San Javier project. Most of these reports had focused on the mineralized veins east of

Mixtecapa River. Because of local community concerns about mineral exploration east of the river, only a single day of the April 2012 program was spent examining these veins and taking

select samples to confirm assay values described previously. That visit indicated that there are several sub-parallel generally east-striking and south dipping mineralized veins. Subject to more detailed examination, these veins appear to be hosted by a relatively fresh-looking unit referred

to as the Maguey Granite (in older literature referred to as the Young Granite). Regional geology refers to the area as being underlain by Mixteca Terrain, a mix of pre-Mesozoic

plutonic, volcanic and sedimentary rocks regionally metamorphosed by the Laramide (and older?) orogeny. However, the relatively unaltered textures and composition of this granite and younger mafic dykes intruding it suggest it is more likely post-Laramide (post-Cretaceous) in

age. Veining in that area would then also be younger than that intrusion. The quartz vein-host rock, with no carbonate, plus the silver-arsenic-lead but low zinc and even lesser copper

indicates that current position is at moderate depth in an epithermal system. High arsenic shows that hydrothermal fluids have leached a thick section of crustal material (the Mixteca Terrane). This mineralized system is related to regional scale structures that penetrate that terrane to great

depth. It is probable that additional veins are present in proximity to other regional structures on and around the San Javier property.

Because of local political issues most of the recently completed work concentrated on known mineralization from the Tajo Vein westward to the western property boundary. Here the host

rock was a moderately to strongly clay-altered buff- to light brown to orange-pink host rock that, although previously considered to be a granitic rock, is considered by Dr. Bain (Howe) to be a

lithic and crystal tuff of rhyolite to dacite (felsic) composition. This unit is thought to be post- Maguey Granite in age. However the mineralizing event is probably the same on both sides of the river. Sulphide and silver minerals are the same, as are the ranges in assay values. Gangue

mineral in the veins and stockwork are both quartz with no carbonate. In the west this mineralization is recognized in a much more stockwork type pattern compared to the east where

individual thicker veins with much less stockwork are more prevalent. Zones of silicification are more easily recognized in the west.

It is suggested that the Maguey Granite was injected through the Mixteca Terrane after the Laramide Orogeny, so as late as Tertiary time. That surface was eroded down to expose the

granite. Following this felsic volcanism, including ash clouds, ashflows and minor rhyolite flows occurred in the region. A glassy brittle horizon may have been present at the base. The porous and permeable nature of the tuff would easily allow the movement of hydrothermal fluids

Page 46: Vendome ni 43 101

Vendome Properties 46 Broad Oak Associates

along its base, especially against an impermeable surface such as the Maguey Granite. That basal zone had “crackled”, either from a possible glassy base or because there was an initial phase of hydrothermal fluid movement that precipitated only silica. That “crackling” created

numerous small-scale (2 centimetre to 1.8 metre) flat to low-angle stockwork veinlets and rare small veins. West of the river mineralization can be projected to at least the elevation of Mixtecapa River (1,308 metres) and as high as the surface of Soil Grid (1,382 metres), an

elevation difference and therefore a known vertical mineralized zone of a minimum of 74 metres thick. Dip direction may be influenced by the original slope of the granite basement, allowing

NE, W and NW dip to the stockwork and veins west of the river. Concurrent or a later phase fluid movement remobilized or carried into this stockwork the same metals (Ag-As-Pb-(Zn)- (Cu)) and sulphur as those seen in the Maguey Granite. The acidic nature of the fluid caused the

moderate to strong clay alteration of the feldspars of the volcanic pile but much less in the feldspars of the Maguey Granite. Veining and mineralization in the granite may reflect a greater

depth in the hydrothermal system. This interpretation would require that volcanics also be deposited east of the river at the same time as those to the west but have since been eroded, possibly because of uplift of the east side was along a NE fault along the river following the

mineralizing event. Insufficient sampling has been done on the east side to show if there is increase in Cu values which would suggest that veining there is deeper in the hydrothermal

system. Little analysis has been done for gold. An increase in one or both elements would be a strong indicator of increased depth in the system.

26.0 Recommendations

Geoffrey S. Carter, the Qualified Person preparing this Technical Report, believes that the

character of Vendome Resources Corp. San Javier, La Diana and Fiscal 2012 Projects are of sufficient merit to justify the following exploration program over the next 12-24 months.

It is recommended that a 2 Phase program be initiated on the Vendome Properties to provide more detail to the silver, gold and base metal potential of the property and the areas surrounding

it. Budget estimates and work programs are outlined below. Phase 2 is contingent upon the results of Phase 1.

Phase 1

The Phase 1 program should consist of detailed mapping of the known veins and their host rocks

east of the Mixtecapa River, as well as a few days of mapping and prospecting in the northwest quarter of the property, to look for evidence of Tajo Zone veining, alteration and mineralization. An IP/Resistivity ground geophysical survey would not be effective on the flattish veining west

of the river. However, it would be useful in trying to trace the continuity of more moderate and steeply dipping mineralized veins such as Veta Ancha east of the river. It would also be used to

assist in the selection of drill targets on that side. Based on the Aster satellite imagery and apparent disposition of hydrothermal alteration and structure, La Diana and San Miquel concessions may host mineralization similar to that at San Javier and consequently with it the

possibility of multiple prospects and occurrences across the properties. It is recommended that an airborne magnetic, EM and radiometric survey together with a regional stream sediment

geochemistry survey be conducted across the properties in order to identify additional veining and mineralization.

The Tajo Road area has been geochemically sampled in detail. An 85 metre deep stockwork and vein zone is present there. Both the Veta Ancha and Tajo road area represent immediate targets for diamond drill testing and it is recommended that the continuity, vertical density and variation

in width of veining in the two areas drill tested as part of the Phase 1 work.
