Unfortunately, I was delayed by <br /> surgery relating to my atrial fibrillation. I now have a pacemaker and am back on my feet <br /> again. This was the principal cause of the unintended delay in filing the annual report. <br /> Below, we address the comments that Amy Eschberger included in her 2019 inspection <br /> of our mining operation: <br /> • 5.6.1: (c). We have included the description of prospecting activity in 2018 in the <br /> Annual Report. There are no new surface drill holes, mudpits, excavations, rock <br /> dumps, adits, shafts, trenches, pits, roads, or structures. <br /> • Much of the prospecting activity on the site was, and continues to be, as a training <br /> ground for geology students under the tutelage of Professor Bill Atkinson. The <br /> purpose of the training is to train students in the identification and sampling of <br /> valuable minerals, while at the same time providing valuable information to us. <br /> The prospecting and sampling generally involves no new surface disturbance of <br /> the type requiring additional reclamation. <br /> • 5.6.1: (d). We have done no reclamation this year or in previous years. <br /> Pagel of 2 <br />
