A portion of the Fancamp Investment was completed through an indirect flow through offering by Gold Orogen which resulted in Gold Orogen receiving approximately $3,000,000 in proceeds under the Fancamp Investment; and

The Transaction has received the conditional approval of the TSX Venture Exchange (the ‘ TSX-V ‘), however remains subject to the final approval of the TSX-V.
