Maybe this will help you since I had a little more time..

"DESCRIPTION OF PAYMASTER GOLD & SILVER PROPERTY

Our original mineral exploration property was the CAD 1 - 4 Claims, located in the Lone Mountain Mining District, Esmeralda County, Nevada. Management refocused this project on the Paymaster Mine, which was located about two miles south of the CAD claims and was available for the Company to acquire by staking. On September 19, 2009 we staked two lode mining claims known as the Paymaster #1 and the Paymaster #2 Claims. These mining claims cover the historic Paymaster Mine, which includes numerous shafts and adits (tunnels) located along a prominent vein system that is exposed along a northeasterly trend for at least 3,000 feet. The surrounding country rock is Cambrian age Harkless Formation, which is a dominantly green siltstone. The Paymaster Mine is located in Paymaster Canyon approximately 20 miles northwest from Goldfield, Nevada. It is accessible from Las Vegas by US Highway 95, a paved all-weather road that runs through Goldfield, and from there by a well-maintained all-weather unpaved road. The Paymaster Mine is part of the Lone Mountain Mining District, in the Weepah Mining Sub-District. This mining district has been a substantial historic producer of both gold and silver. Weepah was actually the site of the last major "gold rush" in Nevada following the discovery in 1927 by two 19 -year old boys of gold ore that assayed over $75,000 per ton gold. We were encouraged by the results of our initial sampling program, which was comprised of nine (9) grab samples from mine dumps located along the Paymaster vein system. All of the samples had detectable gold and silver. One sample from the dumps of the South Shaft assayed a bonanza grade of 161.8 ounces silver per ton. Another sample from the North Shaft dumps contained high grade gold, assaying 0.164 ounces gold per ton. Three additional samples assayed at over 2 ounces silver per ton and two more samples assayed over .01 ounces gold per ton. We plan to follow up with more detailed geochemical sampling at Paymaster in order to identify potential drill targets.

DESCRIPTION OF YABA SILVER PROPERTY

The Yaba Silver Property is located on 40 acres of mining claims (two lode claims) on land administered by the US Forest Service (USFS) in the Yarber Wash Mining District, in Yavapai County, Arizona, about 15 miles south of Jerome.

There are two mines at Yaba Silver, the Tri-Metals Mine and the Gold Dot, the name of which suggests that the property may also have gold byproduct potential. There are shafts and adits, ranging from 65 feet to 285 feet.

The geology in the Yaba Silver Project area is similar in many respects to that in and about Jerome. In both cases the deposits were once thought to be replacement in origin. However, by the 1970's the theory had become generally accepted that the Jerome deposits were volcanogenic massive sulfide (VMS) deposits. Approximately 1.7 billion years ago seafloor volcanic activity built up successive layers of the country rock. Feeder vents (also called "black smokers") deposited massive copper sulfides and, later in the cycle, silica, silver and gold. The strata were later deformed to greenstone schist and tilted sharply so that today the dip is nearly vertical in many instances. Finally, portions of the preCambrian schist were covered with Tertiary volcanics. One difference is that the United Verde deposit at Jerome was principally hosted by quartz porphyry, while at Yaba the country rock is diorite.

The Company's plans for this Mine are to begin exploration with surface and underground rock chip sampling to confirm previously reported silver mineralization."
