1. SUMMARY
The Hong Kong Property is situated in the Biscotasing Arm of the Swayze
Greenstone Belt, approximately 35km east of Sultan, Ontario and is
comprised of claims held by Wallbridge Mining Company Limited that
surround a patented claim held by Mr. George Beith, that was optioned by
Wallbridge in December 2003. Historical work in the area has revealed the
presence of small Ni-Cu-PGE showing known as the Beith Showing. The
Beith Showing represents a sheared amphibolite-gabbro unit hosting
disseminated pyrrhotite, pyrite, and minor chalcopyrite. Assay results from
historical drilling indicated metal values of Q.39% Cu, D.87% Ni (DDH #1) and
Q.80% Cu, Q.54% Ni (DDH #3). A total of 6 historical drillholes were drilled, of
which 5 intersected mineralization; the true extent of mineralization has not
been satisfactorily determined.
Mapping conducted in the summer of 2004 has revealed a possible eastern
extension to this shear zone that is hosted in mafic volcanic rocks that are
bound by sediments to the south and by granitoids to the north.
Measurements taken in this eastern extension suggest that a dike plunges
between 31" and 48". This would suggest that the mineralized zone at the
Beith Showing follows a similar plunge and may explain why no outcropping
mineralization is observed to the east. A recent airborne VTEM survey over
the area has been designed to test this possibility. The following
recommendations are made contingent on positive results from this survey:
* Ground truthing of anomalies should be performed;
* Depending on the nature of the anomalies a ground geophysical
survey (IP or EM) would be recommended to follow-up and better
define prospective drill targets. This should be done on cut lines at
50m spacing and should be designed to penetrate to at least 200m
depth. Detailing at 25m spacing over highly anomalous areas should
not be ruled out.
* Further mapping over any cut grid is recommended for greater control
over outcrop locations and to add to current knowledge of the area.
This should be done at 1:2500 scale maximum;
* Any new, untested target that can be considered as geologically and
geophysically attractive should be drilled. Note that consideration must
be made of historical work in the area before any such step should take
place (i.e. historical drilling, etc.);
* Follow-up drilling should be carried out on targets where warranted.
2. INTRODUCTION AND TERMS OF REFERENCE
This report was compiled by Wallbridge Mining Company Limited
('Wallbridge') technical staff under the direct supervision of Richard Murphy,
Vice President of Corporate Affairs for Wallbridge. This report summarizes
work completed on the property to date and makes recommendations for
continued exploration.
The Hong Kong property is host to the Beith Showing in eastern Hong Kong
Township. The showing is characterized by Ni-Cu-PGE mineralization hosted
in sheared amphibolite and mafic volcanics. The Bieth patent was optioned
by Wallbridge to assess further mineral potential associated with the shear
zone, which has been observed to the southeast of the showing, and is
believed to continue northwest.
3. PROPERTY DESCRIPTION AND LOCATION
The Hong Kong property is located in Hong Kong Township extending
eastward into adjacent Edith Township in the Biscotasing Arm of the Swayze
Greenstone Belt, approximately 165 km northwest of Sudbury, Ontario. The
property described herein includes one leased - single unit lease and a 15
unit unpatented claim block (S323968) held by Mr. George Beith and optioned
by Wallbridge in 2003. Wallbridge holds 8 contiguous blocks of unpatented
claims around Mr. Beith's claims, claimed in February of 2004. Mr. Beiths
claims were recorded prior to 2004 in September of 2002 and are due in
September of 2004.
The Beith claims were optioned by Wallbridge in December of 2003.
4. ACCESSIBILITY, CLIMATE, LOCAL RESOURCES,
INFRASTRUCTURE AND PHYSIOGRAPHY
The area is accessible via a combination of paved and unpaved roads, ATV
trails, and foot trails. From Sudbury, drive 149 km north on Highway 144
toward Timmins. Turn left (west) on Sultan Industrial Road (a.k.a. Eddy
Road). Travel approximately 45 km along Sultan Industrial Road to a
southward extending timber road. Turn south on this road for 1 km
whereupon bush road will branch southwest toward the Woman River. Follow
this road for 1.2 km where the Woman River truncates it. Cross the river by
foot and follow the western extension of the road where it will continue
sinuously to southwest for 2.1 km to the Beith Showing. Secondary roads and
bush traverses allow for access to the extents of the surrounding claims.
Topography in the area ranges from steep-faced to rolling hills with
interceding lows. The Woman River flows north and represents the
confluence of smaller tributary drainage in the area.
Bedrock exposure is limited and sporadic with greater concentrations
associated with topographic highs near and around the banks of the Woman
River. Overall, there is approximately 7-1007o outcrop, SO-85% glacial cover,
S-10% drainage and swamp.
Vegetation in the area is mostly second-growth mixed bush consisting of
jackpine, alder, poplar, spruce, balsam, and lesser white pine and red pine.
5. PREVIOUS WORK HISTORY
Historical work was performed on the Beith showing by Hudson Bay
Exploration and Development ('HBED'), who optioned the property from G.
Beith in 1972. They conducted ground magnetometer and EM-17 surveys
over the area and commenced a six hole diamond drilling program on one of
Mr. Beith's patents (S323968).
Geophysics were carried out over at cut block at 61 m (200 ft) spacing using a
Geonics EM-17 horizontal loop survey with a 91.4 m (300 ft) coil separation.
Readings were taken at 30.5 m (100 ft) intervals along lines with detailing at
15m (50 ft) where anomalous results were taken.
The EM survey highlighted a conductive zone on lease S323968, and is
coincident with the sulphide showing in the area. A 6-hole diamond drilling
program was commenced by HBED in 1972 based on these results.
Mineralization was intersected in 5 of the 6 drill holes as S-10% disseminated
pyrrhotite, pyrite and lesser chalcopyrite. Assays results from the HBED drill
program yielded maximum assays of Q.39% Cu, Q.87% Ni (DDH#1) and
Q.80% Cu, D.54% Ni (DDH#3). The mineralized zone varies in thickness
between 6 and 8 feet (1.8-2.4m; true thickness), containing up to 100Xo
sulphide that extends from surface to at least 90 feet (27m) depth.
6. GEOLOGIC SETTING
Regional Geologic Setting
The Hong Kong property resides in the southeast leg of the Swayze
Greenstone Belt, the westernmost extension of the Abitibi Greenstone Belt,
known as the Hong Kong Assemblage or the Biscostasing arm. It consists of
steeply dipping, tholeiitic basalts, interlayered with thin (-^lOm) units of clastic
and chemical sedimentary rocks. Iron formation occurs along the northern
limit of the assemblage and traces a series of tight folds in the central part of
the assemblage having a northerly axial trace. The dominant penetrative
fabric dips steeply southwest and strikes easterly, and therefore does not
necessarily parallel the axial planar surface, but rather conforms with the
contacts of the external granitoids. The assemblage was later intruded by
north, northwest and northeast striking mafic dike swarms that are often
evident as linear aeromagnetic anomalies. These swarms are interpreted as
representing the Matachewan (north striking), Sudbury (northwest striking)
and Abitibi (northeast striking) dike swarms.
Local Geologic Setting
The geology of the Hong Kong property is known from 1:5000 scale mapping
and is shown in Figure 5. The area is dominated by highly strained mafic
volcanics whose primary structures and textures have been largely
obliterated. Occasional pillows with high aspect ratios can be observed, but
are rare, with selvages either absent or attenuated parallel to dominant
regional fabric, occurring as discontinuous ribbon-like domains. The volcanics
are bound to the south by highly strained pelitic sediments exhibiting
phyllosilicate growth, and locally approach a schistose character. An
amphibolite-dike can be traced from the Beith showing trending 087" to 1130
extending for a minimum strike length of 750 m east-southeast into Edith
Township, where it tends to become more horneblend-dioritic in character at
the easternmost extent. A gradational change from hornblende-diorite to
amphibolite can be observed at a local scale in the field with greater strain
associated with the latter.
The Beith Showing is hosted in sheared amphibolite and contains up to 2-307o
chalcopyrite, 707o pyrrhotite with up to 100Xo total sulphide. Interstitial
plagioclase is occasionally observed. The strongest portion of the shear is
localized in the amphibolite, however strain/foliation occurs throughout.
Mineralization is concentrated but not confined to the amphibolite, and
extends to the mafic volcanic wallrocks on either side. The shear is zone is
approximately 1.5 m wide at the showing.
The nature of the sulphides shows that they tend to follow slip-planes along
foliated rock, and often have a sigmoidal habit, mimicking the S-C fabric.
However, they remain disconnected and essentially disseminated. The
nature and occurrence of the sulphide suggests remobilization of a primary
phase via a late kinematic overprint.
Metamorphic grades in the area are lower amphibolite to middle greenschist
facies with no systematic variability in any given direction.
7. DEPOSIT TYPES
The presence of anomalous Cu-Ni-PGE values found in the HBED diamond
drilling program has illustrated the potential for this type of mineralization in
the area. Wallbridge has sought to explore the greater area to:
1. Determine the extent of the shear zone known to host the
mineralization at the Beith Showing;
2. Determine whether any such extension hosts similar or more
concentrated sulphides;
previously unexplored depths.
The primary model invoked for this program is that of early sulphide saturation
of an igneous melt inducing precipitation of Ni-Cu bearing sulphide. Also
considered is the potential remobilisation and possible refining of sulphides
associated with late structural events. Such remobilisation is observed at a
small scale at the Beith Showing proper, as evidenced by mineralization
permeating the volcanic wallrocks and small scale attenuation of sulphide
along penetrative fabrics.
8. MINERALIZATION
Mineralization on the Hong Kong property is, to date, confined to the Beith
Showing. Assays returned from the HBED drill program yielded maximum
assays of Q.39% Cu, Q.87% Ni (DDH#1) and D.80% Cu, G.54% Ni (DDH#3).
Similar assays were returned by Wallbridge during a preliminary property visit
of Q.4% Cu, Q.7% Ni, 0.06 g/t Pt+Pd, 0.01 g/t Au (best results). Four of five
grab samples taken by Wallbridge during this visit are subanomalous. The
reported percentage of sulphide ranges between 50Xo and 10"Xo, with Ni grades
increasing proportional to sulphide content (e.g. 0.22-0.350Xo Ni @ 507o content
to Q.56-0.87% Ni @ 100Xo content).
Follow-up work during the summer of 2004 revealed no other significant
mineralization in the area exposed at surface. A total of 14 samples were
taken from in and around the Beith Showing with only the Beith Showing
yielding significant results with Q.17% Cu, 1.2307o Ni, 0.201 TPM (best results).
Table 1 summarizes all samples taken from the Hong Kong property.
9. EXPLORATION
In December 2003 Wallbridge optioned the property from the holder and
proceeded to stake properties around the original claims. A summer
reconnaissance program was commenced in 2004 that included 1: 5000 scale
mapping, sampling, and prospecting in the Hong Kong area. A total of 4 days
was required for this portion of the summer program.
A heliborne VTEM survey was conducted over the area in August 2004 and
extended beyond the property onto adjacent Wallbridge claims at 100m
spacing with 3 km lines. The results of this survey are pending.
10. SAMPLE METHOD AND APPROACH
A quality control program has been implemented by Wallbridge to ensure best
practices in the sampling and analysis of the diamond drill core and surface
samples. Wallbridge utilizes SGS Minerals as its primary lab. The lab is
located in Mississauga, Ontario and it is ISO 9000 certified.
At the lab, crushed samples are split using a Jones riffle to 200 grams.
Samples are milled to 90 to 95 passing 200 mesh. A standard fire assay is
used for gold, platinum and palladium analyses and a sodium peroxide fusion
with ICP finish is used for base metals.
11. DATA VERIFICATION
The geologist sampling reviews all assays. Significant assays are referenced
back to mineralization observed in the sample. Quality control standards and
blanks are inserted approximately every 20th assay sample. Standards and
blanks are checked by the geologist who submitted the samples. Any
discrepancies in data quality are immediately reported to supervising
management.
Five percent of the samples (coarse rejects) are submitted to ALS Chemex for
check assaying. Significant discrepancies between labs result in re-assaying
of the original material until Wallbridge is satisfied that the end analytical
results are valid.
12. INTERPRETATION AND CONCLUSIONS
Principal rock types and structural deformation in the area indicate a typical
volcano-sedimentary package that has been subsequently highly strained
possibly due to bounding plutons to the north and south of the area. The
principal area of interest remains to be the Beith Showing as no other surface
exposure of sulphide with anomalous to low-grade Cu-Ni-PGE values could
be found. Minimum strike length of the shear hosting the mineralization is
200m, but may extend eastward for at least 750m if some offset exists. The
Woman River represents a possible lineament where late dextral structural
displacement may have occurred, offsetting the amphibolite dike to the east of
10
the river from the expected strike of the Berth (~1100). The amphibolite is
interpreted here as being originally gabbroic to dioritic in composition where
shearing, metasomatic and late metamorphic processes have made
plagioclase relatively unstable where a greater amphibolitic phase is
recognized. Where shearing is greatest, C-S fabrics are well developed.
Where hornblende diorite is recognized, plunge and trend measurements of
48071200 , 38071150 , 31"71100 have been taken. Assuming that this represents
the eastern extension of the Beith Showing, it would suggest that
mineralization, if it were to continue, would occur progressively deeper to the
east and become shallower to west. A paucity of outcrop to the west has
made testing of this hypothesis difficult. Similarly, the lack of conspicuous
mineralization to the east cannot be cited as negative evidence in this regard.
The low percentage and nature of occurring sulphide (i.e., S-10%
disseminated pyrrhotite, pyrite, chalcopyrite) in Wallbridge assays are
impressive, with a direct correlation observed between Ni values and
percentage sulphide. At such high Ni tenors, any increase in percentage
sulphide would be considered significant.
13. RECOMMENDATIONS
Further exploration on the Hong Kong property may be prudent pending
results of the recently completed airborne VTEM survey over the area. If
anomalies exist in the area the following work is recommended:
* Ground truthing of anomalies should be performed;
* Depending on the nature of the anomalies a ground geophysical
survey (IP or EM) would be recommended to follow-up and better
define prospective drill targets. This should be done on cut lines at
50m spacing and should be designed to penetrate to at least 200m
depth. Detailing at 25m spacing over highly anomalous areas should
considered, subject to available budget.
11
Any cut grid should be mapped to supplement current geological
information on the area. This should be done at 1:2500 scale
maximum;
Any new, untested target that can be considered as geologically and
geophysically attractive should be drilled. Note that consideration must
be made of historical work in the area before any such step should take
place (i.e. the source of the any anomalies should be compared to
known mineralization in the existing drill holes to avoid unnecessary
duplication);
Follow-up drilling should be carried out on targets where warranted.

2 28468 Hong Kong Township Property Visit-Vendor George Beith:
Date of Field Visit: 23/05/03 Date Report Completed: 24/07/03 Visited By: Robert Levesque (Field Geologist) and Mark Hall (Lands Management Officer/Geologist)
Introduction and Objectives:
The main objectives for conducting the site visit on Mr. Beith's copper/nickel showing in Hong Kong Township was to: locate any possible copper/nickel mineralization within the Archean Superior Province- Abitibi Subprovince rocks or within later intrusives. The scope of work involved a one day exploratory site visit for copper-PGE mineralization within the Archean rocks and associated Precambrian rocks (metavolcanic and metasedimentary rocks).
Location:
The site area is located in Hong Kong Township some 160 kilometers northwest of the city of Sudbury. The area of interest on the property is located within a 2m X 4m trench on the north side of a small hill at OPS co-ordinates 5266313N, 0388480E in NAD 83. The property is located at the south east corner of Hong Kong Township, abutting Edith Township. It consist of one - one unit mining lease, which is currently under review by MNDM for renewal, and one 15 (16 units minus the one lease in the middle) unit staked mining claim SI 18737. Due date for this claim is September 26, 2004.
The area is easily accessible by various timber roads. The outcrop is poor due to lots of overburden, however the ground is sand-gravel, therefore very sound for driving. The roads are over grown with brush but passable.
Access:
To access the property take Hwy #144 north to the watershed, turn west on the Sultan Road. Travel west approximately 45 Km to a recently constructed timber haul road running southerly. (If you get to the Woman River bridge you have gone to far.). Travel this road approximately 3 Km to a bush road on the right hand side. Turn right on this road and follow it without turnoffs to the woman river and a washed out bridge. From there, cross the woman river on foot and follow the continuation of this bush road approximately 2 km to the claim. The location is best recognizable by a clearing approximately 100 meters in diameter and a small rise notable on the claim map. UTM coordinates are 5266313N J)388480. NAD 83. ~
SEP 1 7 200*1Background
The claim is situate on a relative magnetometer low trending parallel to Out crop is less than 507o. Regional government geology maps indicate the granite/gneissic rocks.
Past exploration consisted of trenching and 6 drill holes. Trenching was done buy George Beith and the drilling was conducted by Hudson Bay Exploration and Development Company Limited in October of 1972. The drill logs indicated that the zone is persistent, if not impressive and found within a sheared gabbro/amphibolite. Mineralization consisted of disseminated sulphides-pyrrhotite,pyrite and chalcopyrite with concentrations of up to 10"^o sulphide. Past assay results from the blasted pit/trench were of the value Wo Cu/Ni combined.
Geology:
Our findings on the property consisted of five grab samples from or near the trenched-out area.
The samples were assayed for PM's, PGE's, Cu, Ni and Co. Polished thin sections were made from all samples. The results are indicated in the chart below.
The rock in the area of interest is primarily metavolcanics and metasediments. The rocks have undergone regional metamorphism and may locally be affected by contact metamorphism brought on by localized significant structures.
Mineralization:
Mineralization consists of pyrrhotite, and minor chalcopyrite up to 100Xo but usually less than 50Xo. Where the bedrock is less sheared the mineralization appears to be net textured. It is fine to coarse grained, elongated in the direction of the shearing.

Note: Samples 2-6 are of solid out crop within proximately to the trench with associated gossans.
Structure:
The out crop is closely associated with a strongly foliated shear zone running 135/80 to 140/78. The rocks (metavolcanics) have been regionally metamorphosed to an amphibolite facies and contain substantial fine -grained hornblende. The shear zone is micaceous with predominantly sheared amphibolite and coarse grained biotite crystals. Mineralization is hosted and limited to the shearing event.
Conclusions:
The showing is relatively small and limited in known extent. It appears the Hudson's Bay, who have done the only work on the property concluded that the mineralization was too limited to warrant additional exploration. However, the work done by Hudson's Bay employed geophysical equipment of limited capacity, especially given the depth of overburden in the region. Drilling results indicate that mineralization remains open in at least 2 directions (down and to the east)
Recommendations:
Ft is recommended that the property be optioned (subject to negotiating reasonable terms) and investigated with deeper looking EM equipment to better determine the extent and nature of the mineralization.

1. SUMMARY
The Hong Kong Property is situated in the Biscotasing Arm of the Swayze
Greenstone Belt, approximately 35km east of Sultan, Ontario and is
comprised of claims held by Wallbridge Mining Company Limited that
surround a patented claim held by Mr. George Beith, that was optioned by
Wallbridge in December 2003. Historical work in the area has revealed the
presence of small Ni-Cu-PGE showing known as the Beith Showing. The
Beith Showing represents a sheared amphibolite-gabbro unit hosting
disseminated pyrrhotite, pyrite, and minor chalcopyrite. Assay results from
historical drilling indicated metal values of Q.39% Cu, D.87% Ni (DDH #1) and
Q.80% Cu, Q.54% Ni (DDH #3). A total of 6 historical drillholes were drilled, of
which 5 intersected mineralization; the true extent of mineralization has not
been satisfactorily determined.
Mapping conducted in the summer of 2004 has revealed a possible eastern
extension to this shear zone that is hosted in mafic volcanic rocks that are
bound by sediments to the south and by granitoids to the north.
Measurements taken in this eastern extension suggest that a dike plunges
between 31" and 48". This would suggest that the mineralized zone at the
Beith Showing follows a similar plunge and may explain why no outcropping
mineralization is observed to the east. A recent airborne VTEM survey over
the area has been designed to test this possibility. The following
recommendations are made contingent on positive results from this survey:
* Ground truthing of anomalies should be performed;
* Depending on the nature of the anomalies a ground geophysical
survey (IP or EM) would be recommended to follow-up and better
define prospective drill targets. This should be done on cut lines at
50m spacing and should be designed to penetrate to at least 200m
depth. Detailing at 25m spacing over highly anomalous areas should
not be ruled out.
* Further mapping over any cut grid is recommended for greater control
over outcrop locations and to add to current knowledge of the area.
This should be done at 1:2500 scale maximum;
* Any new, untested target that can be considered as geologically and
geophysically attractive should be drilled. Note that consideration must
be made of historical work in the area before any such step should take
place (i.e. historical drilling, etc.);
* Follow-up drilling should be carried out on targets where warranted.
2. INTRODUCTION AND TERMS OF REFERENCE
This report was compiled by Wallbridge Mining Company Limited
('Wallbridge') technical staff under the direct supervision of Richard Murphy,
Vice President of Corporate Affairs for Wallbridge. This report summarizes
work completed on the property to date and makes recommendations for
continued exploration.
The Hong Kong property is host to the Beith Showing in eastern Hong Kong
Township. The showing is characterized by Ni-Cu-PGE mineralization hosted
in sheared amphibolite and mafic volcanics. The Bieth patent was optioned
by Wallbridge to assess further mineral potential associated with the shear
zone, which has been observed to the southeast of the showing, and is
believed to continue northwest.
3. PROPERTY DESCRIPTION AND LOCATION
The Hong Kong property is located in Hong Kong Township extending
eastward into adjacent Edith Township in the Biscotasing Arm of the Swayze
Greenstone Belt, approximately 165 km northwest of Sudbury, Ontario. The
property described herein includes one leased - single unit lease and a 15
unit unpatented claim block (S323968) held by Mr. George Beith and optioned
by Wallbridge in 2003. Wallbridge holds 8 contiguous blocks of unpatented
claims around Mr. Beith's claims, claimed in February of 2004. Mr. Beiths
claims were recorded prior to 2004 in September of 2002 and are due in
September of 2004.
The Beith claims were optioned by Wallbridge in December of 2003.
4. ACCESSIBILITY, CLIMATE, LOCAL RESOURCES,
INFRASTRUCTURE AND PHYSIOGRAPHY
The area is accessible via a combination of paved and unpaved roads, ATV
trails, and foot trails. From Sudbury, drive 149 km north on Highway 144
toward Timmins. Turn left (west) on Sultan Industrial Road (a.k.a. Eddy
Road). Travel approximately 45 km along Sultan Industrial Road to a
southward extending timber road. Turn south on this road for 1 km
whereupon bush road will branch southwest toward the Woman River. Follow
this road for 1.2 km where the Woman River truncates it. Cross the river by
foot and follow the western extension of the road where it will continue
sinuously to southwest for 2.1 km to the Beith Showing. Secondary roads and
bush traverses allow for access to the extents of the surrounding claims.
Topography in the area ranges from steep-faced to rolling hills with
interceding lows. The Woman River flows north and represents the
confluence of smaller tributary drainage in the area.
Bedrock exposure is limited and sporadic with greater concentrations
associated with topographic highs near and around the banks of the Woman
River. Overall, there is approximately 7-1007o outcrop, SO-85% glacial cover,
S-10% drainage and swamp.
Vegetation in the area is mostly second-growth mixed bush consisting of
jackpine, alder, poplar, spruce, balsam, and lesser white pine and red pine.
5. PREVIOUS WORK HISTORY
Historical work was performed on the Beith showing by Hudson Bay
Exploration and Development ('HBED'), who optioned the property from G.
Beith in 1972. They conducted ground magnetometer and EM-17 surveys
over the area and commenced a six hole diamond drilling program on one of
Mr. Beith's patents (S323968).
Geophysics were carried out over at cut block at 61 m (200 ft) spacing using a
Geonics EM-17 horizontal loop survey with a 91.4 m (300 ft) coil separation.
Readings were taken at 30.5 m (100 ft) intervals along lines with detailing at
15m (50 ft) where anomalous results were taken.
The EM survey highlighted a conductive zone on lease S323968, and is
coincident with the sulphide showing in the area. A 6-hole diamond drilling
program was commenced by HBED in 1972 based on these results.
Mineralization was intersected in 5 of the 6 drill holes as S-10% disseminated
pyrrhotite, pyrite and lesser chalcopyrite. Assays results from the HBED drill
program yielded maximum assays of Q.39% Cu, Q.87% Ni (DDH#1) and
Q.80% Cu, D.54% Ni (DDH#3). The mineralized zone varies in thickness
between 6 and 8 feet (1.8-2.4m; true thickness), containing up to 100Xo
sulphide that extends from surface to at least 90 feet (27m) depth.
6. GEOLOGIC SETTING
Regional Geologic Setting
The Hong Kong property resides in the southeast leg of the Swayze
Greenstone Belt, the westernmost extension of the Abitibi Greenstone Belt,
known as the Hong Kong Assemblage or the Biscostasing arm. It consists of
steeply dipping, tholeiitic basalts, interlayered with thin (-^lOm) units of clastic
and chemical sedimentary rocks. Iron formation occurs along the northern
limit of the assemblage and traces a series of tight folds in the central part of
the assemblage having a northerly axial trace. The dominant penetrative
fabric dips steeply southwest and strikes easterly, and therefore does not
necessarily parallel the axial planar surface, but rather conforms with the
contacts of the external granitoids. The assemblage was later intruded by
north, northwest and northeast striking mafic dike swarms that are often
evident as linear aeromagnetic anomalies. These swarms are interpreted as
representing the Matachewan (north striking), Sudbury (northwest striking)
and Abitibi (northeast striking) dike swarms.
Local Geologic Setting
The geology of the Hong Kong property is known from 1:5000 scale mapping
and is shown in Figure 5. The area is dominated by highly strained mafic
volcanics whose primary structures and textures have been largely
obliterated. Occasional pillows with high aspect ratios can be observed, but
are rare, with selvages either absent or attenuated parallel to dominant
regional fabric, occurring as discontinuous ribbon-like domains. The volcanics
are bound to the south by highly strained pelitic sediments exhibiting
phyllosilicate growth, and locally approach a schistose character. An
amphibolite-dike can be traced from the Beith showing trending 087" to 1130
extending for a minimum strike length of 750 m east-southeast into Edith
Township, where it tends to become more horneblend-dioritic in character at
the easternmost extent. A gradational change from hornblende-diorite to
amphibolite can be observed at a local scale in the field with greater strain
associated with the latter.
The Beith Showing is hosted in sheared amphibolite and contains up to 2-307o
chalcopyrite, 707o pyrrhotite with up to 100Xo total sulphide. Interstitial
plagioclase is occasionally observed. The strongest portion of the shear is
localized in the amphibolite, however strain/foliation occurs throughout.
Mineralization is concentrated but not confined to the amphibolite, and
extends to the mafic volcanic wallrocks on either side. The shear is zone is
approximately 1.5 m wide at the showing.
The nature of the sulphides shows that they tend to follow slip-planes along
foliated rock, and often have a sigmoidal habit, mimicking the S-C fabric.
However, they remain disconnected and essentially disseminated. The
nature and occurrence of the sulphide suggests remobilization of a primary
phase via a late kinematic overprint.
Metamorphic grades in the area are lower amphibolite to middle greenschist
facies with no systematic variability in any given direction.
7. DEPOSIT TYPES
The presence of anomalous Cu-Ni-PGE values found in the HBED diamond
drilling program has illustrated the potential for this type of mineralization in
the area. Wallbridge has sought to explore the greater area to:
1. Determine the extent of the shear zone known to host the
mineralization at the Beith Showing;
2. Determine whether any such extension hosts similar or more
concentrated sulphides;
previously unexplored depths.
The primary model invoked for this program is that of early sulphide saturation
of an igneous melt inducing precipitation of Ni-Cu bearing sulphide. Also
considered is the potential remobilisation and possible refining of sulphides
associated with late structural events. Such remobilisation is observed at a
small scale at the Beith Showing proper, as evidenced by mineralization
permeating the volcanic wallrocks and small scale attenuation of sulphide
along penetrative fabrics.
8. MINERALIZATION
Mineralization on the Hong Kong property is, to date, confined to the Beith
Showing. Assays returned from the HBED drill program yielded maximum
assays of Q.39% Cu, Q.87% Ni (DDH#1) and D.80% Cu, G.54% Ni (DDH#3).
Similar assays were returned by Wallbridge during a preliminary property visit
of Q.4% Cu, Q.7% Ni, 0.06 g/t Pt+Pd, 0.01 g/t Au (best results). Four of five
grab samples taken by Wallbridge during this visit are subanomalous. The
reported percentage of sulphide ranges between 50Xo and 10"Xo, with Ni grades
increasing proportional to sulphide content (e.g. 0.22-0.350Xo Ni @ 507o content
to Q.56-0.87% Ni @ 100Xo content).
Follow-up work during the summer of 2004 revealed no other significant
mineralization in the area exposed at surface. A total of 14 samples were
taken from in and around the Beith Showing with only the Beith Showing
yielding significant results with Q.17% Cu, 1.2307o Ni, 0.201 TPM (best results).
Table 1 summarizes all samples taken from the Hong Kong property.
9. EXPLORATION
In December 2003 Wallbridge optioned the property from the holder and
proceeded to stake properties around the original claims. A summer
reconnaissance program was commenced in 2004 that included 1: 5000 scale
mapping, sampling, and prospecting in the Hong Kong area. A total of 4 days
was required for this portion of the summer program.
A heliborne VTEM survey was conducted over the area in August 2004 and
extended beyond the property onto adjacent Wallbridge claims at 100m
spacing with 3 km lines. The results of this survey are pending.
10. SAMPLE METHOD AND APPROACH
A quality control program has been implemented by Wallbridge to ensure best
practices in the sampling and analysis of the diamond drill core and surface
samples. Wallbridge utilizes SGS Minerals as its primary lab. The lab is
located in Mississauga, Ontario and it is ISO 9000 certified.
At the lab, crushed samples are split using a Jones riffle to 200 grams.
Samples are milled to 90 to 95 passing 200 mesh. A standard fire assay is
used for gold, platinum and palladium analyses and a sodium peroxide fusion
with ICP finish is used for base metals.
11. DATA VERIFICATION
The geologist sampling reviews all assays. Significant assays are referenced
back to mineralization observed in the sample. Quality control standards and
blanks are inserted approximately every 20th assay sample. Standards and
blanks are checked by the geologist who submitted the samples. Any
discrepancies in data quality are immediately reported to supervising
management.
Five percent of the samples (coarse rejects) are submitted to ALS Chemex for
check assaying. Significant discrepancies between labs result in re-assaying
of the original material until Wallbridge is satisfied that the end analytical
results are valid.
12. INTERPRETATION AND CONCLUSIONS
Principal rock types and structural deformation in the area indicate a typical
volcano-sedimentary package that has been subsequently highly strained
possibly due to bounding plutons to the north and south of the area. The
principal area of interest remains to be the Beith Showing as no other surface
exposure of sulphide with anomalous to low-grade Cu-Ni-PGE values could
be found. Minimum strike length of the shear hosting the mineralization is
200m, but may extend eastward for at least 750m if some offset exists. The
Woman River represents a possible lineament where late dextral structural
displacement may have occurred, offsetting the amphibolite dike to the east of
10
the river from the expected strike of the Berth (~1100). The amphibolite is
interpreted here as being originally gabbroic to dioritic in composition where
shearing, metasomatic and late metamorphic processes have made
plagioclase relatively unstable where a greater amphibolitic phase is
recognized. Where shearing is greatest, C-S fabrics are well developed.
Where hornblende diorite is recognized, plunge and trend measurements of
48071200 , 38071150 , 31"71100 have been taken. Assuming that this represents
the eastern extension of the Beith Showing, it would suggest that
mineralization, if it were to continue, would occur progressively deeper to the
east and become shallower to west. A paucity of outcrop to the west has
made testing of this hypothesis difficult. Similarly, the lack of conspicuous
mineralization to the east cannot be cited as negative evidence in this regard.
The low percentage and nature of occurring sulphide (i.e., S-10%
disseminated pyrrhotite, pyrite, chalcopyrite) in Wallbridge assays are
impressive, with a direct correlation observed between Ni values and
percentage sulphide. At such high Ni tenors, any increase in percentage
sulphide would be considered significant.
13. RECOMMENDATIONS
Further exploration on the Hong Kong property may be prudent pending
results of the recently completed airborne VTEM survey over the area. If
anomalies exist in the area the following work is recommended:
* Ground truthing of anomalies should be performed;
* Depending on the nature of the anomalies a ground geophysical
survey (IP or EM) would be recommended to follow-up and better
define prospective drill targets. This should be done on cut lines at
50m spacing and should be designed to penetrate to at least 200m
depth. Detailing at 25m spacing over highly anomalous areas should
considered, subject to available budget.
11
Any cut grid should be mapped to supplement current geological
information on the area. This should be done at 1:2500 scale
maximum;
Any new, untested target that can be considered as geologically and
geophysically attractive should be drilled. Note that consideration must
be made of historical work in the area before any such step should take
place (i.e. the source of the any anomalies should be compared to
known mineralization in the existing drill holes to avoid unnecessary
duplication);
Follow-up drilling should be carried out on targets where warranted.

2 28468 Hong Kong Township Property Visit-Vendor George Beith:
Date of Field Visit: 23/05/03 Date Report Completed: 24/07/03 Visited By: Robert Levesque (Field Geologist) and Mark Hall (Lands Management Officer/Geologist)
Introduction and Objectives:
The main objectives for conducting the site visit on Mr. Beith's copper/nickel showing in Hong Kong Township was to: locate any possible copper/nickel mineralization within the Archean Superior Province- Abitibi Subprovince rocks or within later intrusives. The scope of work involved a one day exploratory site visit for copper-PGE mineralization within the Archean rocks and associated Precambrian rocks (metavolcanic and metasedimentary rocks).
Location:
The site area is located in Hong Kong Township some 160 kilometers northwest of the city of Sudbury. The area of interest on the property is located within a 2m X 4m trench on the north side of a small hill at OPS co-ordinates 5266313N, 0388480E in NAD 83. The property is located at the south east corner of Hong Kong Township, abutting Edith Township. It consist of one - one unit mining lease, which is currently under review by MNDM for renewal, and one 15 (16 units minus the one lease in the middle) unit staked mining claim SI 18737. Due date for this claim is September 26, 2004.
The area is easily accessible by various timber roads. The outcrop is poor due to lots of overburden, however the ground is sand-gravel, therefore very sound for driving. The roads are over grown with brush but passable.
Access:
To access the property take Hwy #144 north to the watershed, turn west on the Sultan Road. Travel west approximately 45 Km to a recently constructed timber haul road running southerly. (If you get to the Woman River bridge you have gone to far.). Travel this road approximately 3 Km to a bush road on the right hand side. Turn right on this road and follow it without turnoffs to the woman river and a washed out bridge. From there, cross the woman river on foot and follow the continuation of this bush road approximately 2 km to the claim. The location is best recognizable by a clearing approximately 100 meters in diameter and a small rise notable on the claim map. UTM coordinates are 5266313N J)388480. NAD 83. ~
SEP 1 7 200*1Background
The claim is situate on a relative magnetometer low trending parallel to Out crop is less than 507o. Regional government geology maps indicate the granite/gneissic rocks.
Past exploration consisted of trenching and 6 drill holes. Trenching was done buy George Beith and the drilling was conducted by Hudson Bay Exploration and Development Company Limited in October of 1972. The drill logs indicated that the zone is persistent, if not impressive and found within a sheared gabbro/amphibolite. Mineralization consisted of disseminated sulphides-pyrrhotite,pyrite and chalcopyrite with concentrations of up to 10"^o sulphide. Past assay results from the blasted pit/trench were of the value Wo Cu/Ni combined.
Geology:
Our findings on the property consisted of five grab samples from or near the trenched-out area.
The samples were assayed for PM's, PGE's, Cu, Ni and Co. Polished thin sections were made from all samples. The results are indicated in the chart below.
The rock in the area of interest is primarily metavolcanics and metasediments. The rocks have undergone regional metamorphism and may locally be affected by contact metamorphism brought on by localized significant structures.
Mineralization:
Mineralization consists of pyrrhotite, and minor chalcopyrite up to 100Xo but usually less than 50Xo. Where the bedrock is less sheared the mineralization appears to be net textured. It is fine to coarse grained, elongated in the direction of the shearing.

Note: Samples 2-6 are of solid out crop within proximately to the trench with associated gossans.
Structure:
The out crop is closely associated with a strongly foliated shear zone running 135/80 to 140/78. The rocks (metavolcanics) have been regionally metamorphosed to an amphibolite facies and contain substantial fine -grained hornblende. The shear zone is micaceous with predominantly sheared amphibolite and coarse grained biotite crystals. Mineralization is hosted and limited to the shearing event.
Conclusions:
The showing is relatively small and limited in known extent. It appears the Hudson's Bay, who have done the only work on the property concluded that the mineralization was too limited to warrant additional exploration. However, the work done by Hudson's Bay employed geophysical equipment of limited capacity, especially given the depth of overburden in the region. Drilling results indicate that mineralization remains open in at least 2 directions (down and to the east)
Recommendations:
Ft is recommended that the property be optioned (subject to negotiating reasonable terms) and investigated with deeper looking EM equipment to better determine the extent and nature of the mineralization.
Respectfully submitted,
Robert Levesque and Mark Hall
