ATTACHMENT 1 TO
FORM 12b-25
NOTIFICATION OF LATE FILING
For the six months ended April 30, 2007, the Company had an increase in general
and administrative expenses, and therefore a greater net loss from operations
compared to the six months ended April 30, 2006. Since the beginning of the
current fiscal year, the Company received funding from one private placement
that closed in March 2007. The funding provided the Company with financial
resources necessary to increase its operations and drilling projects, and to
increase its exploration-related expenditures. As a result, the Company's
operations for the six months ended April 30, 2007 are greater than the six
months ended April 30, 2006. This resulted in a net loss for the six months
ended April 30, 2007 of approximately 1.5 times the net loss for the six months
ended April 30, 2006.
