Pass Property

The Pass property comprises 9 mineral claims totaling 337 hectares located on north-central BC. The property is host to gold-silver-poly metallic quartz veins from which grab samples collected in 2006 assayed up to 72.95 glt gold, 365 glt silver, 11.13% copper, 29.0% lead and 20.14% zinc. In the fall of 2008, Grande Portage completed 24 drill holes totaling 1600 metres from 4 setups testing a strike length of 700 metres. All holes tested the vein system near surface; additional drilling is required to test the down dip extent of the mineralization and to expand the strike length of the vein system. Highlights of the drilling included a 2.46 metre intersect grading 12.84 g/t gold, 29.21 g/t silver, 4.88% lead and 3.36 % zinc.

The Company plans an expanded program in 2009 comprising a further 30-40 holes totaling 2000 metres to continue expanding the strike length of the vein complex and to test the down dip extent of the mineralization. In addition a second vein system located near a ridge top was not tested in 2008. This vein comprises quartz-tourmalines chalcopyrite - magnetite and has returned values of up to 26.05 glt gold, 99 g/t silver, 0.34% copper and 4.5% lead from chip samples ranging from 0.4 to 1.0 metres.
