Results from 746.25 m in 15 trenches were excavated across a northeast trending network of quartz veins and surrounding lateriitic and altered wall rock injected with quartz veinlets and stringers. The trenches are 0.75 to 1.15 m deep and were sampled in 1.0 m intervals. They are spaced 25 t0 75 m apart and cover a strike length of 240 m of the favourable geology. These results are relatively sub-economic but very significant since they to a strong and penetrative hydrothermal mineralization system carrying gold affecting the rocks of the property along a northeast structural trend. Furthermore the appearance of the lateritic rocks exposed in the trenches is very similar to the one hosting gold mineralization now being exploited at the nearby SAG mine. Pro-Veinor is now planning an extensive exploration to begin in February 2005. The program will include trenching in areas of gold rich quartz veins. Follow-up on at least 25 gold occurrences outlined by the local artisan miners and the continuation of the regional termite mounds sampling survey that has outlined significant gold anomalies will also be followed-up.

Analytical results from the termite mounds geochemical sampling survey has outlines a significant anomalous gold zone inthe center of the Fifa gold permit. A total of 331 samples were collected on a 500 by 500 m sq grid. The lower detection limit of the fire assay analytical method is 10 ppb Au and over the survey area 57 samples had gold concentration lower than this threshold. Excluding these samples, the average gold concentration for the remaining population is 50 ppb for the area covered by the survey and overall 69 samples were found to contain 50 ppb Au or more. In the centre of the permit, the anomalous samples are forming a linear zone oriented east-northeast that can be traced over a strike length exceeding nine kilometres. The eastern and central portion of the anomaly is characterized by scattered samples with gold concentration in the range of 150 to 250 ppb, whereas the western extent of the zone forms a cluster of higher grade samples ranging between 350 and 445 and remains open to the west of the survey area. The anomalous zone coincides with a regional structural lineament interpreted from a remote sensing imagery photography.
