    DEVELOPMENT AND RESERVES

    SUMMARY

    Nudulama Mines Limited has an inactive mine in Leeson

    Township located about 130 miles north of Sault Ste. Marie

    and 14 miles northeast of Missanabie, Ontario. The mine

    Was last operated during the period 1947-1951 to develop a

    gold-bearing quartz vein deposit.

    Exploration of the deposit by diamond drill holes

    from drifts driven in the vein matter on five mine levels

    has indicated that a lenticular zone of quartz vein deposition,

    averaging 300 feet long by 30 feet wide, probably extends from

    surface to more than 725 feet in depth.

    The exploration results indicate that the deposit

    contains probable reserves of about 500,000 tons of vein

    matter which contain 0.146 ounces of gold per ton and

    possible reserves of about 104,000 tons containing 0.075

    ounces of gold per ton.

    A metallurgical test has indicated that 96% of the gold

    contained in the vein matter is recoverable by conventional

    fine milling and cyanidation extraction.

    Renabie Mines Ltd. has mined several orebodies (gold-

    bearing quartz vein deposits) which are located between about

    1,500 to 5,000 feet west of the Nudulama Mine. The descrip

    tions of these deposits indicate that their occurrence is

    similar geologically to that of the Nudulama deposit, which

  • is located approximately in line with the extended strike

    of the Renabie "C" Zone deposit. (Reference No. 2).

    The Great Lakes Power Company which supplies the

    district with hydro electric power at one time supplied

    power to the Nudulama Mine. Water for domestic and mining

    operations is available within 1,700 feet of the mine. A

    truck road connects the mine with Missanabie and thence by

    highway connection may be made with Sault Ste. Marie.

    Miecanabie is also located on the main transcontinental

    C.P.R. line.

    Although the exploration results have indicated

    that the quartz vein deposit probably extends continuously

    from surface to over 725 feet in the mine, it was concluded

    that the dimensions and tenor of the deposit between mine

    levels should be explored with raises and diamond drilling.

    Although it is also possible that the deposit may extend

    down plunge to a depth of 1,200 feet below surface,as

    indicated by drill hole intersections reported to have

    been made on the Renabie-Nudulama property boundary, this

    conclusion should be confirmed by drill hole investigation

    and drifting below the 5th Level of the mine.

    Recommendations include the dewatering and rehabili

    tation of the mine, resampling the drifts, exploring any

    possible extensions of the mineralized zone with diamond

    drilling and underground development both west jind east of

    the shaft.

    v. \INTRODUCTION

    The following report on the

    Nudulama Mines Limited was authorized by the Company's

    Executive Vice-President, Mr. O. A. Seeber of Suite 401,

    25 Adelaide Street West, Toronto, Ontario.

    The Company has approximately 1,700 acres of property

    and a partially developed vein type gold deposit located

    one mile east of Renabie Gold Mines in Leeson Township,

    Ontario. The property is accessible by road from

    Missanabie, Wawa and Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario.

    The purpose of this report is to describe the geology,

    mineralogy, exploration and development of the deposit.

    The deposit consists of a zone of gold bearing

    quartz veins or stringers, deposited in and containing

    inclusions of sheared tonalite gneiss. The zone is

    usually mineralized with a small amount of disseminated

    pyrite. In the report such mineralization is usually

    referred to as vein matter. The probable and possible

    reserves of vein matter in the deposit are presented in

    a tabulated form.

    The report presents recommendations for further

    exploration and development of the deposit, and its

    possible extensions.

    Some surface showings of the Nudulana deposit

    were examined by the writer in October 1973. The

    sources of much of the information contained in the report

  • Jtf^-*.''"' ;"- 'Ite - '

    are the publications listed under "Bibliography" on

    Page 19. The report was written in February 1974.

    The writer's calculations of tonnage and grades

    of vein matter contained in the various reserve blocks

    of the deposit were made from the information shown on

    the sampling plans of mine drifts which are referred to

    'in the quoted sources of information. The writer has

    not made an independent calculation of the data regarding

    the probable average grade, width, length or tons of vein

    matter shown on each plan. However, from a study of the

    plans and reports the writer believes the data shown to

    be a reasonable estimate of the tons and grade of the

    deposit. (See References 4 and 5).

    PROPERTY

    The Nudulama Mines property consists of 15 patented

    claims containing 896.87 acres and 18 contiguous unpatented

    claims containing about 800 acres. The patented claims are

    S34816 to 34820; 34825; 35127 to 35135; and the unpatented

    claims are SSM351619 to 351622; 351635 and 353636; 351643

    to 351654. The assessment work on the unpatented claims is

    due on July 12th and November 15th of 1974. The title of

    the property was ascertained from the Company's copy of

    tax payments and mining recorders' receipts.

    The writer examined the surface trenches and some

    of the veins exposed on the property.

  • - 5 -

    LOCATION-co?^'v Vj-t^B^&ff*^

    The claims are located about 130 miles north of

    Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario in Leeson and Brackin Townships

    of the Sault Ste. Marie and Porcupine Mining Divisions,

    District of Sudbury.

    The Nudulama Mine is located on Mining Claims

    S34818 and S34819, one mile east of Renabie, Ontario.

    (See Plan No. 1).

    ACCESSIBILITY, CLIMATE AND LOCAL RESOURCES

    A gravel-surfaced road leads 12-1/2 miles eastward

    from Missanabie,Ontario and the main line of the Canadian

    Pacific Railway, to the Renabie Mine. One mile of gravel

    truck road extends from the Renabie Mine to the Nudulama

    Mine. Missanabie is connected with Highway 101 by 32

    miles of all-weather gravel highway. Highway 101 goes to

    Wawa and Chapleau, which are connected with Sault Ste. Marie,

    Ontario. (See Plan No. 1). The climate is typical of

    Northern Ontario. Water and mine timber are readily

    available. Hydro electric power is probably available,

    as it previously was, from the Great Lakes Power Company

    which serves the district.

    HISTORY

    From 1945 to 1947 the Nudulama gold deposit was

    explored by surface trenching and diamond drilling. Between

    1947 and 1951 the deposit was further explored and developed

    underground from a vertical shaft sunk to a depth of 1,065

  • - 6 - .. ,

    -J

    feet, and by diamond drilling from drifts mined in the

    vein zone on five levels between surface and 725 feet.

    Underground development was carried on until 1951 when

    the mine was closed and allowed to fill with water.

    Since then it has remained inactive. During this period

    there was no production from the mine, except vein matter

    mined in the drifts which now remain stock piled on surface

    at the shaft. The development was carried on by the pre

    decessor companies, Dulama and Ladulama Gold Mines Ltd.

    Prom 1947 to 1970 the neighbouring Renabie Mine

    produced 3,000,000 tons of ore averaging .21 ounces of

    gold per ton.

    GENERAL GEOLOGY

    The general geology of the region around Renabie and

    Nudulama Mines is shown on Ontario Department of Mines

    Preliminary Geological Map No. P492 included with this

    report. (Reference No. 2).

    The rock formations in the southwest corner of Leeson

    Township largely consist of greenstones intruded by grano

    diorite or tonalite gneiss or massive granite, all of

    whic! are cut by dykes of diabase. (Reference No. 1).

    The greenstones consist of meta-basalt with an

    associated group of meta-ash flow rocks which are presumed

    to overlie the meta-basalts. The major area of granitic

    rocks adjoins the eastern edge of the volcanic rocks.

    Most of the granitic rocks are foliated granodiorite or

    tonalite. Dykes of quartz diabase and lamprophyre

  • - 7 -

    cutting the earlier rocks and quartz

    strike about N 20* W. (Reference No. 2).

    The strike of the country rocks is arcuate, curving

    from northwest in the southern part of the area to north

    east in the northern part of the area. Within the volcanic

    rocks, dips and schistosity range from vertical to 60* W.

    The strike and dip of foliation in the granitic rocks

    generally conforms with the trends in the volcanic rocks.

    (Reference No. 2).

    LOCAL GEOLOGY AND MINERALIZATION

    RENABIE MINES

    Four ore zones occur at the Renabie Mine within

    1,500 to 5,000 feet west of the Nudulama Mine. The ore

    zones consist almost entirely of mineralized quartz or

    quartz lenses conformably enclosed in schistose grano

    diorite. Individual orebodies in the ore zone are thick

    lenses or pipes of quartz, up to 200 feet in length, 50

    feet in width, and about 500 feet in depth, which plunge

    about 50 0 to the west. Some orebodies occur at a depth

    of 2,475 feet. The Renabie quartz deposits occur in a

    zone which has a length of about 3,000 feet, from the "R"

    zone at the west to the "C" zone at the east.

    NUDULAMA MINE

    The Nudulama quartz deposit located 1,500 feet

    east of the Renabie "C" vein zone, is a lenticular

    zone of quartz veins and stringers mineralized with small

  • '-!"': ; ',

    ffi?,.

    - 8 -

    amounts of pyrite, galena, molybdenite, pyrrhotite, ^

    chalcopyrite and gold. The quartz deposition occurs

    in a zone of sheared and silicified tonalite and in

    places greenstone. The quartz frequently contains

    inclusions of tonalite. In the report such collectively

    mineralized quartz and host rock will be referred to as

    vein matter. The lenticular quartz deposit is cut about

    midway by a diabase dyke, 120 feet in width, which strikes

    northwest and dips steeply southwest. On surface the

    quartz lens has a length of about 200 feet on the west

    side of the diabase dyke and 300 feet on the east side

    of the dyke. The quartz lens strikes about E-W from

    surface to the 2nd Level at 275 feet and N 60 0 - 75 0 W

    from the 3rd Level to the 5th Level at 725 feet from

    surface. The dip of the quartz lens on the west side of

    the diabase dyke is south, ranging from 80 0 near surface

    to 67 0 on the 4th Level at 575 feet in depth. In the

    underground workings where the lenticular quartz zone

    lies entirely west of the diabase, it has a length of

    400 feet, a width of from 10 to 50 feet, and plunges

    S 85 0 W at 50 0 . (See Section No. 1).

    On the east side of the diabase the quartz deposit

    strikes about N 80 0 W and dips south at about 750 .

    EXPLORATION AND DEVELOPMENT OF THE NUDULAMA '/BIN ZONE

    PAST DEVELOPMENT

    The Nudulama vein west of the diabase was developed

    on surface by trenching and diamond drilling. A three-

  • compartment vertical shaft was sunk to a dpeth of 1,065

    feet and seven mining levels were established at elevations

    of 150, 275, 425, 575, 725, 875 and 1,025 feet below the

    shaft collar. The vein zone has been delimited on the

    first five levels with drifts and flat diamond drill holes.

    On the 2nd Level, steep inclined holes were also drilled

    t'o delimit the zone above and below the level on 50-foot

    sections. The exploration has outlined a vein zone of

    400 feet in length and 950 feet in depth on the 50* plunge

    of the zone between the surface and 5th Level.

    It was reported that two holes diamond drilled by

    Renabie Mines near the Renabie-Nudulama property boundary

    intersected a mineralized zor^ at a vertical depth of

    1,200 feet from surface. The intersections contained

    1.1 oz. of gold over 10.0 feet and .08 oz. of gold over

    30.0 feet. (See Section No. l and Reference No. 3).

    RESERVES OF VEIN MATTER

    Depending on the extent of delimitation the following

    blocks of vein matter have been placed in the category of

    probable or possible reserves. (See Section No. 1).

    The total tonnage of vein matter calculated for the

    above blocks is considered to be less than it actually is

    due to the fact that the depth of ore in the blocks was

    measured on a vertical plane instead of on the dip plane

    at the vein zone, which dips at 650 to 80 0 .

    METALLURGY

    An investigation of the vein matter from Nudulama Mines

    Ltd. was carried out for the predecessor company, Dulama Gold

    Mines Ltd., by Nepheline Products Limited in June 1949.

    Their report states that "the highest extraction of gold from

    the sample of low grade ore (.140 ounces per ton) was

    obtained by grinding in water and aerating the pulp for

    eight hours with 8 Ib. of Ca (OH) per ton of ore prior

    to cyanidation for 48 hours." This method achieved a

    gold recovery of 96.43%. (See Reference No. 7).

    CONCLUSIONS

    Surface and underground development of the Nudulama

    Mine has indicated that west of the shaft a gold-boaring

    quartz deposit extends from surface to a vertical depth

    of more than 725 feet. However, the vertical continuity,

    dimensions and grade of the vein matter between mine levels

    requires investigation to determine what actual reserve

    tonnage the quartz deposit contains.

    Based on the lower average gold content of the

    725-foot level it could be concluded that Jdle. grade off ~ ..- - .

    /V-: .......'. \,r,,,,... M

  • ^.' '

    / v vein matter may decrease in the lower parts of the quartz

    deposit. However, the diamond drill intersections, made

    at 1,200 feet in depth on the projected plunge of the vein

    from the 725-foot level, indicate that this should not

    become a definite conclusion. {See Page 9 and Reference 3).

    The possibility of the quartz deposit extending undiminished

    to this depth requires investigation by diamond drilling

    below the 5th or 725-foot level.

    More investigation is required of the possible

    extension of that part of the deposit located immediately

    east of the shaft and diabase dyke. The possibilities of

    more remote extensions of the vein zone are well protected

    by patented and unpatented claims which cover a strike

    length of about two miles.

    The metallurgical test indicates that gold in the vein

    matter is recoverable by a conventional milling and

    cyanidation treatment.

    A feasibility study should be made before deciding

    to bring the mine into production. This should be

    commenced at the completion of Phase I of the following

    recommended exploration program.

    RECOMMENDATIONS

    The following program is recommended for further

    exploration and development of the Nudulama gold mine:

  • - 13 -

    FURTHER EXPLORATION AND DEVELOPMENT WEST OF

    It is recommended that the extension of the*TJe13osit

    below the 725-foot elevation be explored by diamond drilling

    from a cross-cut driven from the west end of the 5th Level

    drift. If the drilling indicates the continuity of the

    deposit to the 6th and 7th Levels, these levels should be

    explored by drifting on the vein matter and diamond drilling

    from the drift walls on sections spaced at 50-foot intervals.

    The continuity of mineralization between all levels

    should be explored by driving raises in the vein matter from

    the 7th level to surface. Holes should be drilled from the

    raises to explore the dimensions of the deposit between

    levels.

    FURTHER EXPLORATION AND DEVELOPMENT EAST OF THE SHAFT

    The quartz deposit immediately east of the shaft

    should be explored at vertical depths of 275 and 575 feet

    below the shaft collar by diamond drilling from surface

    along a strike length of 1,000 feet or more. Providing

    an extension of the deposit to those depths is indicated,

    diifts should be driven in the vein east of the shaft on

    the 2nd and 4th Levels.

    SURFACE EXPLORATION EAST OF THE QUARTZ DEPOSIT

    Any possible lateral extensions of the mineralized

    zone to the east ore well covered by mining claims for

    a distance of about two miles along the extended strike

    of the Nudulama gold-bearing quartz deposit. A group of

    18 unpatented claims located on strike will require

    -

  • - 14 *

    assessment work to be completed by mid-July and November

    1974. It is recommended that a grid system of picket

    lines be established and that the claims be geologically

    and possibly geophysically surveyed. A known mineralized

    zone located in the south part of the claim group should be

    investigated by trenching and diamond drilling if necessary.

    SUMMARY OF RECOMMENDED DEVELOPMENT

    The recommended program of exploration will require

    dewatering and rehabilitation of the mine workings and the

    following development work:

  • HISTORY AND BUSINESS

    Nudulama Mines Limited (hereinafter called the "Company") was incorporated, with the objects of a mining and exploration company, under The Companies Act of Ontario by letters patent, dated December 2, 1944, with the name Dulama Gold Mines, Limited. Supplementary Letters Patent were issued dated May 20, 1948, increasing the authorized capital. Under Supplementary Letters Patent, dated.May 29, 1950, the name of the Company was changed to Ladulama Gold Mines, Limited and the authorized and issued capital of the Company consolidated on a one (1) for two (2) basis and the authorized capital increased. Under Supplementary Letters Patent dated March 31, 1953, the name of the Company was changed to its present name, the authorized and issued capital consolidated on a one (1) for two (2) basis and the authorized capital increased to 4,000,000 shares.

    The Company owns 15 patented mining claims in Leeson Township, District of Sudbury, Ontario, upon which in excess of $700,OdO has been expended in carrying out prospecting, exploration and development work prior to 1951. Due to the price of gold at that time further work was not then warranted'and the workings allowed to flood. The Company, by staking, has acquired an additional 18 unpatented mining claims in Leeson and Brackin Townships, in the Porcupine Mining Division, Ontario, which adjoin the 15 patented mining claims.

    With the recent advance in the open market price of gold the Company arranged a private placement to net the treasury $120,000. For further particulars reference is made to the captions under the heading "Prior Sales". Using these funds the Company has undertaken a complete review of all its records, reports and data on prior work carried out on the above properties to determine the structure and extent of the ore zone in order to undertake a aetailed exploration and development programme.

    For particulars of the above properties, past work, reserves and the recommendations of the Company's consultant, William F. Morrison, B.Se., Consulting Geologist, reference is made to the heading "Property".

    PROPERTY

    The following is a summary of parts of the report

  • - 2 - .:. . -' ;

    dated February 21, 1974, by William F. Morrison, B.Se., P.Eng., Consulting Geologist, a consulting geologist retained by the Company. Copies of this report are on file with the Ontario Securities Commission and are available for inspection in the public file of the Ontario Securities Commission and at the head office of the Company.

    The properties consist of 15 patented mining claims containing 896 acres and 18 unpatented mining claims containing about 800 acres. The patented mining claims are numbered S34816 to S34820 inclusive, S34825 and S35127 to S35135 inclusive. The 18 unpatented mining claims are numbered SSM351619 to 351622 in clusive, SSM351635, SSM351636 and SSM351643 to 351654 inclusive. All the mining claims are in good standing and the only require ment to keep the patented mining claims in good standing is the payment of taxes. Assessment work on the unpatented mining claims is due on November 15, 1974 in respect of mining claims numbered SSM351619 to 351622 inclusive, SSM351635 and SSM351636 and on July 24, 1974 in respect of mining claims numbered SSM351643 to 351654 inclusive. No surface rightu are owned by the Company.

    Location and Accessibility

    The mining claims are located in Leeson and Brackin Townships, in the Sault Ste. Marie and Porcupine Mining Divisions of Ontario, which are approximately 130 miles north of Sault Ste. Marie and 50 miles east of Wawa, Ontario. The Nudulama mine is located on Mining Claims S34818 and S34819, one mile east of Renabie, Ontario.

    The properties are accessible by gravel road from the Renabie mine which is situate on adjoining claims and which can be reached by gravel road from Missanbie, Ontario. Missanabie is connected to Highway 101 by 32 miles of all weather gravel highway and from there to Wawa, Chapleau and Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario.

    Development

    The property is developed by a three-compartment vertical shaft to 1,065 feet from surface and seven level stations have been established at elevations of 150, 275, 425, 575, 725, 875 and 1,025 feet below the shaft collar. The partially developed gold bearing zone has been tested'by drifts and flat diamond drill holes on the first five levels including steep in clined holes drilled above and below the 2nd level on sections located at 50 foot intervals.

  • - 3 -

    The results of this work have indicated a mineralized zone vrest of the shaft with a length of some 400 feet. Although no definitive work is recorded for the area below the 725-foot level, it is understood that diamond drilling carried out by the neighbouring Renabie mine on its side of the property boundary indicated the possible depth continuity on the westerly plunge of the mineralized zone.

    The main zone west of the shaft is cut by a diabase dike about 120 feet in width from another zone east of the shaft. The latter zone has not been tested by underground work but there is a modest attribution of tonnage for three blocks in this area to a vertical depth of 100 feet. These blocks vary in length from 60 to 100 feet and an average width varying from 10.5 feet to 27.7 feet.

    From 1947 to 1970 the neighbouring Renabie mine produced 3,000,000 tons of ore averaging .21 ounces of gold per ton.

    Estimated Reserves

    Based on available data from former work, it is estimated the deposit on the west side of the shaft contains probable reserves of 500,000 tons averaging 0.146 ounce of gold per ton to a vertical depth of 650 feet or 50 feet below the 4th level. There is a further 104,000 tons classified as possible in the interval between 650 feet and 750 feet averaging 0.075 ounce of gold per ton but this block has not been as extensively explored and developed as the blocks'above 650-foot horizon.

    The blocks comprising the probable reserves vary in length from 210 feet {at a depth of 50 feet from surface) to 420 feet (for the area between 350 to 500 feet from surface) and from 16.0 feet to 44.5 feet in width, the latter dimensions averaging about 30 feet in width.

    Abutting the diabase dike east of the shaft, the three blocks of possible tonnage contain a total of about 36,700 tons, -similar in grade to that of the main zone west of the shaft.

    Metallurgical test has indicated a 96% recovery of the gold was economically possible by conventional milling and cyanidation extractions treatment.

    Costs and Recommendations

    A detailed summary of the costs of the recommended exploration and development v;ork is set out in Mr. Morrison's report. It is recommended the work be carried out in two (2) phases and detailed costs of each phase are set forth in Mr. Morrison's report. The estimated total cost of Phase I is $500,000 and the monies raised from the sale of shares offered under this Prospectus, together with funds on hand, will enable the Company to complete this phase. The recommendations for Phase I include diamond drilling possible extensions of the known zone and other showings on the property and then dewatering and rehabilitating the mine, resampling the drifts, raising on the ?.one from the 5th level to surface and other incidental work. Any funds not spent on Phase I may be applied to work recommended under Phase II in the said report.

    OFFERING

    The Company has entered into an agreement as ofMarch 26, 1974 with Goulding, Rose f, Turner Limited (the "Agent"), 11 King Street West, Toronto, Ontario, whereby the Agent will offer for sale to the public in the Province of Ontario 500,000 shares without par value of the capital of the Company at a price of ^1.05 per share. The Company has agreed to pay a commission to the Agent of $0.03 for each share*'sold, provided that a minimum of $420,000 including commissions is received from subscriptions for shares. The offering will commence on the date of issuance by the Ontario Securities Commission of its receipt for this Prospectus which qualifies such shares for public distribution. The agreement provides, subject to the concurrence of the Company, for the appointment of sub-agents, who may offer shares at the same price and on the same terms, including terms as to the deposit of funds in trust.

    Under the agreement Crown Trust Company, has agreed 'to act as trustee for the Company and for all subscribers. All monies received from subscriptions for shares offered under this Prospectus will be held dn .trust for the trustee and paid over to the Company only if and when a total of $420,000 has been received from subscriptions. If such amount has not been received within 90 days from the commencement of the offering, all funds will be returned to subscribers without deduction of any kind and without interest. If $420,000 has been sub scribed within such time, the trustee will pay the funds from
