SUMMARY
During the period July 10-16, 2009, Stares Contracting Corp was contracted by 1518164 Ontario Inc (“151 Ont”) completed a reconnaissance prospecting and soil survey. The field work program covered only a small portion of 151 Ont’s 100% owned Auden Property claim block located north of Hearst, Ontario.
Historical work on the property indicated the presence of gold mineralization in diamond
drill holes along an east-west trending shear zone defined by airborne magnetic surveys. The soil and prospecting surveys were designed to follow-up on the location and nature
of the historical gold mineralization.

1.0 INTRODUCTION
The Auden Property is owned 100% by 1518164 Ontario Inc (“151 Ont” or the
“Company”). During mid-July a short reconnaissance prospecting and soil survey was carried out by Stares Contracting Corp of Thunder Bay, Ontario on behalf of 151 Ont. Only one rock sample was submitted for assay along with 14 soil samples. This report describes the results of the work completed.
2.0 LOCATION AND ACCESS (Figure 1)
The centre of the Auden Property is located approximately 20 kilometres north of the TransCanada Highway (Hwy 11) between the towns of Longlac and Hearst, Ontario and within NTS mapsheets 42F-14, -15, and -16.
The property can be accessed via numerous logging roads off of Highway 11 although
given the extent of the claim group a helicopter would best be used.
3.0 CLAIM HOLDINGS AND PROPERTY DISPOSITION (Figure 2, Table 1)
The Auden property consists of 1590 units in 110 unpatented mining claims that make up two non-contiguous claim blocks split by the Nagagami River. The claim group stretches for approximately 78 kilometers in a narrow east-west oriented band across numerous claim maps beginning in the east with (Limestone Rapids Area (G-1004), Auden Township (G-1748), Pitopiko River Area (G-1706), Fintry Township (G-2308), Feagan Lake Area (G-1911), Mulloy Township (G-2337), Rowlandson Township (G-2348), and Shuel Township (M-1345) to the west. All claims are held 100% in the name of 1518164 Ontario Inc. as recorded with the Ministry of Northern Development and Mines (“MNDM”).
4.0 HISTORY
Historical mineral exploration work in the area of the Auden Project include prospecting, stratigraphic mapping, various air and ground geophysical surveys and diamond drilling. Starting with the most recent exploration undertaken in the area the following is a quick summary of the historical work completed by various companies found in the MNDM assessment files.
1999-2000: Using an Ontario Prospector’s Assistance Program (OPAP) grant 2 isolated claims were staked in Mulloy and Shuel Townships over circular magnetic features that were interpreted to reflect a mafic to ultramafic intrusive source by R. Duess. Line-cutting and ground magnetic surveys were followed by a single diamond drill hole in each target with the magnetic signature being attributed to magnetite-rich schists or sediments in the core. No assays were reported. 1988-1993: During 1988 and 1990 airborne magnetic and VLF-EM surveys (fixed wing) were completed over D. McKinnon’s claims in the area (Auden Township and Pitopiko River Area).

In 1999 a helicopter-borne aeromagnetic and VLF-EM survey was completed. Several targets detected by the airborne surveys were followed up in 1993 with line-cutting, ground magnetic and electromagnetic (EM) surveys, some induced polarization (IP) and diamond drilling (17 drill holes) of the priority targets. Most of the drill holes intersected pyrrhotite-rich iron formation and lacked ore grade intervals however, many intersected anomalous gold and arsenic values. The best intersection (ddh 7-17-1) reported was 3.33 gram per tonne gold over 1.2 metres within an anomalous 27m wide zone. 1984: Noranda Exploration Company Ltd. completed ground magnetic and horizontal loop EM surveys in Auden Township. Six of the seven conductors detected were considered to be bedrock related. 1981-1984: Mattagami Lake Exploration Ltd. completed ground magnetic and EM surveys over several separate claim groups contained within the Rogers Creek and Limestone Rapids Area. These ground geophysical surveys were followed up with 6 diamond drill holes totaling 1041.5m (3417 feet). The drill logs record iron formation in felsic to mafic volcanics and metasediments and sericite schists. Local zones of arsenopyrite were noted in the core as well as quartz-tourmaline veinlets. One hole reported an intersection of 20-30% sulphide stringer material but assay results were not submitted. 1976-1978: Shell Canada Resources Limited completed 12 drill holes in the area over various targets apparently for the search of base metals. Eight of these drill holes, all testing separate targets, appear to be situated within the current Auden Property claim block. Several of the drill holes intersected arsenopyrite+pyrite+pyrrhotite mineralization. The drill logs also indicate the presence of sericite, silicification, green mica, and tourmaline alteration. 1970-1971: North D’Arcy Explorations Ltd held a block of claims that straddled the Nagagami River in Auden and Fintry Townships. The company completed line-cutting, ground magnetic and EM surveys. Seventeen conductive responses were detected of which the priority anomalies were drill tested with 460.5m in six holes, all close to the Nagagami River. Although the drilling appears to have intersected massive sulphide consisting of pyrite+pyrrhotite+/-chalcopyrite no assays were reported. 1965: In Fintry Township, Silver Place Mines Ltd conducted ground magnetic and EM surveys that outlined a conductor just over 200m long but there is no record of the company having drill tested the anomaly. Martin-Hunt Mining Ltd completed ground magnetic and EM surveys in Auden Township. No record of diamond drilling is available. Colleen Copper Mines Limited held ground in Auden Township north of Martin-Hunt. The company completed ground magnetic and EM surveys before drilling 329m in four holes. As with North D’Arcy Explorations listed above the holes were all located close to the Nagagami River. Assays from hole 4 returned 0.41% copper over 1.5m and 0.1% copper over 1.5m in two separate zones.

1961-1964: Over the period of several years, Algoma Ore Properties targeted potential alkalic intrusive complexes with magnetic surveys in Fintry Township. Diamond drilling intersected syenitic to gabbroic intrusive rocks and subsequent thin section work identified the rocks as a mixture of pyroxenite, olivine pyroxenite, and nepheline syenite. No significant assays were reported. 1956-1958: Fatima Mining Company Limited held claims in Shuel and Rowlandson Townships on which they completed magnetic and EM surveys that detected a variety of conductive responses. Diamond drilling followed and 19 drill holes tested magnetic responses and one tested an EM anomaly. This latter drill hole intersected numerous zones of massive pyrite (replacing quartzite) over intervals up to 4m thick. Although the drill logs describe alteration (sericite, carbonate, quartz veining), mineralization, porphyritic intrusions, and shearing amenable to gold deposition there is no record of gold assays. 1954-1967: Prospector James McGale staked some claims in Auden Township and was visited by the resident geologist of the time, A. Ferguson, who described two sulphide showings mineralized with heavy (20% to massive) pyrite and pyrrhotite up to 10m wide, with one showing on each side of the Nagagami River. No assays were reported. In 1967 the showing on the west side of the river was visited by a representative of Algoma Steel Corporation and reported poor copper amounts. 1953: Two drill holes (306m) were completed by Preston East Dome Mines Ltd in Shuel Township. Tuffs and magnetite bands were intersected but no assays reported. 5.0 GEOLOGICAL SETTING 5.1 Regional Geology On a regional scale the Auden Property is situated near the boundary of between the Wabigoon and Quetico Subprovinces of the Superior Province of the Canadian Shield. The Wabigoon Subprovince is dominated to the north by mafic to intermediate volcanics while sediments predominate to the south. Iron formation (iron-, sulphide-, and silica-facies) occurs throughout the region and hosted gold mines in the Beardmore-Geraldton-Longlac area located to the west of the Auden Property. The most recent government publication titled Geology of Ontario (Thurston et al, 1992) indicates a regional deformation zone oriented east to north east and cutting through the Auden Property area with the rocks to the south likely being part of the Quetico Subprovince dominated by metamorphosed turbiditic sequences. The volcanic and sedimentary rocks have been intruded by granitic blocks. Younger Proterozoic dykes cut across the east-west trending volcanics and metasediments in northwest to northeast directions. To the northeast are flat lying carbonate-rich Paleozoic sediments of the James Bay Lowlands An airborne magnetic map published by the provincial government suggests that the Auden Property may cover stratigraphy representing the eastern extension of the Geraldton Greenstone Belt. 5.2 Local Geology
Unfortunately much of the Auden Property is relatively flat and covered by overburden with little to no outcrop exposure. Much of the geology has been interpreted by geophysical surveys and drill logs from diamond drill campaigns. Magnetic data indicates most of the
4
underlying stratigraphy is oriented in an east west direction and consists of Archean-aged turbidite sequences, conglomerate, iron formation, intermediate to mafic volcanics, quartz feldspar porphyry, syenitic intrusive bodies. Proterozoic-aged diabase dykes crosscut the stratigraphy in northwest and northeast orientations. South of the property the stratigraphy appears to be predominantly migmatite and diatexite of the Quetico Subprovince and exhibit relatively flat magnetics. The more detailed 1991 airborne magnetic survey conducted for D. McKinnon confirms the interpretation from the regional, coarser aeromagnetic provincial government maps of dextral offsetting to the northwest and northeast oriented diabase dykes along a linear easterly trending feature. A circular magnetic high feature located in Fintry Township has been identified as an alkali syenite intrusive body.
6.0 PROSPECTING AND SOIL SURVEY PROGRAM (Map 1) Reconnaissance prospecting and a soil survey were conducted over part of the Auden Property with the hope of locating gold mineralized outcrop or boulders and anomalous soil geochemistry that may suggest a buried mineralized horizon. Unfortunately the overburden cover and swampy ground proved to be more difficult than anticipated and hampered both the prospecting and soil survey efforts. The prospecting resulting in the collection of only one promising rock containing numerous quartz-carbonate stringers with 1% pyrite sulphide content for which the assay returned no significant gold. The soil survey did not fair much better with much of the area either being swampy or having relatively thick (up to 1m) accumulations of litter and humus. The soil samples were collected using a handheld GPS with the location coordinates saved in the unit. An attempt was made to collect a soil sample every 250m on east-west oriented lines however the swampy surface conditions and nature of the overburden dictated where it was possible to recover a soil sample. A total of 14 soil samples were collected but they appeared to be either a poor “B-horizon” or possibly “C-Horizon” material with a dominantly brown to pale orange colour. Although most of the soil assays returned less than the detection limit of 5ppb gold there were 2 that returned 7ppb and one 6ppb gold. Two of these occur 200m apart on the southern line close to the southern boundary of claim 4216914 and the third is situated approximately 300m to the northwest. There were no soil samples collected to the north or west of this latter sample and none to the south or east of the former two. All samples were submitted for fire assay to Accurassay Laboratories of Thunder Bay, Ontario. Sample descriptions and location coordinates are located in Appendix I and Assay Certificates in Appendix II. 7.0 CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS
During the period July 10-16, 2009 Stares Contracting Corp personnel, on behalf of 1518164 Ontario Inc, conducted a reconnaissance soil survey and prospecting program over a small portion of the Auden Property located north of the TransCanada Highway (Hwy 11) between Hearst and Longlac. Thick humus and swampy terrain hindered the program as did poor access. Although the soil survey did not delineate any concrete anomalous gold trends in the geochemical results there were a few weak anomalous gold values that should be followed up. Thick overburden also hampered the prospecting such that very little outcropping bedrock was found and the only altered sample that was submitted did not return anomalous gold.
5
Since the property is host to numerous historical gold values determined by previous work programs further exploration efforts is warranted. Given the poor outcrop exposure and thick overburden some recommendations for future exploration efforts should include a wide-spaced till sampling program, preferably basal till if possible. It may be that a small track mounted drill apparatus would work best for this although surface till samples collected by hand could also prove useful. A basal till survey would not only potentially produce gold grains that would be relatively close to the source but it would also provide important information about the nature and thickness of the overburden. Any gold grains found in the heavy mineral concentrates produced from the till samples should be followed up with a closer spaced sampling program. Based on the nature of the overburden different geochemical surveys (humus) may be pursued as well as determining whether any ground geophysical surveys would be useful. Submitted by:
