Alix has the existing option on the property which was entered into in September of 2010 with Hidefield Gold Inc. and Mines Trust Company (collectively the "Owners") whereby Alix can earn up to 70% interest in the Golden Zone property. Alix has expended over $1.5 million since the inception of their option for exploration and development.
Goldspan and Alix will enter into a Definitive Option Agreement which, inter alia, will require Goldspan and Alix to obtain the Owners' consent to the assignment of the Alix Option to allow for a direct transfer to Goldspan Resources, Inc.
Once the additional funds being committed by Goldspan have been paid as directed, the option that Alix has with the Owners will allow for an ownership change to Goldspan and Alix for 60% and 10%, respectively.
Alix received a NI 43-101, dated January 14, 2011 , Technical Report from Norwest Corporation which provided a resource estimate for the Golden Zone property. Measured, Indicated and Inferred resources at cutoff grades for gold of 0.5 g/T to 4.0 g/T is included in Norwest's report which is included in Alix's public documents with Sedar (http://www.sedar.com). Several other mineralized prospects are also known to be present on the property.
