1.0 INTRODUCTION

In early 2000, Navigator Exploration Corp. (Navigator) and Canabrava Diamond Corp. (Canabrava) entered into an agreement to explore for diamonds in prospective regions of Northern Ontario. Reports at that time indicated De Beers Canada Exploration was in the advanced exploration stages of investigating their Victor kimberlite discovery within the James Bay Lowlands, approximately 100km west of the community of Attawapiskat. Navigator and Canabrava initiated a staking program, acquiring 15,526ha of mineral claims in the immediate vicinity of the Victor kimberlite. The companies then began an aggressive exploration program, including airborne geophysics, line cutting, ground geophysics and diamond drilling. Additional staking increased the total land package to just over 20,000ha. Ground geophysical surveys and diamond drilling were conducted during the winter of 2000-2001, the results of which included the discovery kimberlite AT-56 (Armstrong, 2001, 2002).

Target F801 was one of the targets tested by a ground geophysical survey in 2001. The results of this survey were reported earlier (Armstrong, 2001). A single drill hole testing this target was also completed during the 2001 drilling program. The results of this drill hole are presented herein.

2.0 DESCRIPTION OF LANDHOLDINGS

2.1 Location and Mineral Claims

The mineral claims of the Kat Project lie within the Porcupine Mining Division of Ontario, centred approximately 100km west of the First Nation community of Attawapiskat (Figure 1). The properties consist of several irregular, contiguous claim blocks and isolated claims in the general area of the kimberlite cluster discovered by De Beers in the late 1980's. Drill hole 01-F801-01 was located on claim 1243706, which is located within BMA Area 527833 (Figure 2). National Topographic System (NTS) map sheet (1:50,000 scale) 43B/13 encompasses the claim block. Claim 1243706 is recorded in the name of Canabrava Diamond Corporation of 1650-701 West Georgia Street, Vancouver, British Columbia. *

2.2 Access

Direct access to the claim area during the summer months is restricted to the use of a helicopter from Attawapiskat. The general area could be reached by float equipped fixed wing aircraft from southern communities such as Nakina or Hearst, however bodies of water sufficiently large for landing such aircraft are few. The nearest improved landing strip available to wheeled aircraft is located at Attawapiskat. During recent winters access to the property was improved by the presence of a winter road, constructed by De Beers Canada Exploration, connecting the Victor Project site with Attawapiskat.

The nearest permanent accommodations to the project area are available at the motel in Attawapiskat. Freeze-up and break-up in the Project area is variable, generally occurring in November and early May, respectively. Ice-free seasons average about 7 months in duration.

2.3 Physiography, Flora and Fauna

The Kat Project area lies within the James Bay Lowlands, approximately 110km west of the shore of James Bay at roughly 54 degrees north latitude. The area is generally flat and poorly drained with 90Vo of the area covered by peat and string bogs/muskeg (Martini, 1989). Primary drainage in the area is provided by the Attawapiskat River, which drains eastward to James Bay. Elevation in the immediate vicinity of the Kat Project claims is approximately 85m above sea level. Tree growth is generally sparse with common alders and black spruce and lessor stands of poplar and jack pine. Average high and low temperatures for January are -17.80C and - 28.7 C, respectively (Martini, 1989). Summer temperatures reach in excess of 200C. Wildlife is common in the region and includes woodland caribou, moose, fox and migratory birds including waterfowl are common during the summer months. In addition, pickerel, trout and northern pike are common in many of the lakes and rivers.

2.4 Property History

The James Bay Lowlands of Ontario have been considered prospective for the presence of primary diamond deposits since the discovery of kimberlitic indicator minerals by the Ontario Department of Mines in the 1960's (Brown et al., 1967). Exploration by Selco Mining Corporation and Esso Minerals in the early 1980's led to the discovery of 45 alnoite and carbonatite intrusions within the southern portion of the James Bay Lowlands (Reed and Sinclair, 1991). The first bonafide kimberlites discovered within the James Bay Lowlands were found by Monopros Ltd. (recently renamed De Beers Canada Exploration) near the Attawapiskat River, approximately 110km west of the shoreline of James Bay (Kong et al., 1999). The discovery of 16 kimberlites by Monopros represented the culmination of an exploration program initiated in 1984. Further exploration in 1994 and 1995 by KWG/Spider Resources resulted in the identification of two additional kimberlites in the Attawapiskat cluster, as well as five older kimberlitic bodies (Kyle Lake cluster) 50 to 60km to the west (Janse et al., 1995; Novak, 2000). In February 2001 kimberlite AT-56 was discovered approximately 4km southeast of De Beers Victor pipe, bringing the total number of kimberlites discovered in the Attawapiskat cluster to nineteen (Armstrong, 2001). Government work in the area has included the release of heavy mineral sampling data along the Attawapiskat River (Morris et al., 1995) and a recent compilation/review of the kimberlites and related bodies of the Attawapiskat area (Sage, 2000).

3.0 GEOLOGY

3.1 Regional Geology

The Kat Project area lies within the 1.2 million km2 Hudson Platform of Northern Ontario (Johnston et al,, 1992). The Hudson Platform is comprised of the flat lying Paleozoic rocks of the Moose River and Hudson Bay basins, separated by the northeast trending uplands of the Cape Hentrietta Maria Arch (Figure 3). The basins consist of shallow water sedimentary sequences that unconformably overlie the Precambrian plutonic and supracrustal assemblages of the Superior Province (Moose River and southern Hudson Bay basins) and the Proterozoic rocks of the Churchill Province (northern Hudson Bay basin). The maximum depth to the Precambrian basement is approximately 800m in the central part of the Moose River basin and in excess of 1000m in the Hudson Bay basin (Johnston et al, 1992).

The Superior Province, the largest Archean craton in the world, is comprised of a series of east-west fault bounded terranes that accreted during the late Archean. Superior Province rocks underlying the Hudson Platform are interpreted to represent the granite- greenstone terranes of the Sachigo and Barrens River subprovinces. These subprovinces are comprised of linear to arcuate greenstone belts within larger felsic plutonic and gneiss domains (Thurston et al., 1992). The 2.7 to 3.0Ga rocks of both subprovinces have under gone multiple deformation events, particularly within the greenstone domains (Thurston et al., 1992). Diabase dykes related to the 2171Ma Marathon, 1888Ma Molson, and 1267Ma Mackenzie swarms are known to cut the rocks of the northwestern Superior Province (Thurston et al., 1992).

The Proterozoic rocks of the Sutton Inlier are exposed in the northern portion of the Hudson Platform. These rocks include undeformed clastic and carbonate sedimentary sequences intruded by gabbroic bodies. The rocks of the Sutton Inlier have been correlated with the Belcher fold belt of eastern Hudson Bay and the Fox River Belt in Manitoba, which are interpreted as part of the Trans-Hudson Orogen (Osmani, 1992).

3.2 Property Geologyt

The bedrock underlying much of the Kat Project area is dominated by the stromatoporoid-coral-algal reefs and interreef carbonate sediments of the Silurian Attawapiskat Formation (Suchy and Steam, 1993) (Figure 3). Outcrops of the Attawapiskat Formation rocks are best exposed in cliffs along the banks of the Attawapiskat River. The Attawapiskat Formation has an estimated maximum thickness of approximately 60m, however the underlying Ekwan River Formation limestones are exposed in some cliffs along the Attawapiskat river due to locally significant faulting (Suchy and Steam, 1993). A major episode of fault movement is interpreted to have occurred at or near the end of Attawapiskat Formation deposition and prior to deposition of the overlying Kenogami River Formation. The thick, red bed clastic carbonate and evaporite sediments of the Kenogami River Formation are extremely erosive and therefore very uncommon in outcrop in the Hudson Platform (Suchy and Steam, 1993).

However, the 2001 drilling program confirmed the local presence of Kenogami River Formation red mudstones within the Project area (Armstrong, 2001). Xenoliths of Kenogami River Formation rocks have been identified in some Attawapiskat cluster kimberlites (Kong et al., 1999).

Kimberlite volcanism represents the most recent major geological event in the Project area. High precision U-Pb perovskite ages for three of the Attawapiskat kimberlites indicate an age to 176-180Ma for these kimberlites (Heaman and Kjarsgaard, 2000). In contrast, the Kyle Lake bodies, which do not penetrate the Paleozoic cover sequences, are estimated to be approximately l lOOMa (Sage, 2000).

4.0 DRILL HOLE 01-F801-01

4.1 Introduction

Drill hole 01-F801-01 was drilled from March 16, 2001 through March 19, 2001, as part of a larger exploration program conducted that winter (Armstrong, 2001). Boart Longyear Inc of North Bay, Ontario was contracted to provide drilling services for the program. An LF-70 helicopter portable hydraulic drill was used to test ten targets with 2,111m of HQ core drilling in 19 drill holes. The drill was mobilized from De Beers Canada Exploration's advanced exploration site 15km west of the Kat Project exploration camp, and was returned to that location upon completion of the program.

The Kat Project camp, constructed along the winter road linking De Beers' Victor Project with Attawapiskat, was located next to the Nayshkootayoaw River at approximately 5859000N l 320500E (NTS NAD27 coordinates, Zone 17) (Figure 2). The camp was constructed under the authority of Ontario Ministry of Natural Resources Work Permit MO-00-11. The camp was supplied by the drilling contractor and shipped to site via the winter road from Moosonee. Clearing of the camp site area was conducted by members of the Attawapiskat First Nation through Attawapiskat Technical Services. The camp was constructed by the drilling contractor, with the assistance of Attawapiskat Technical Services. All food and related provisions for the camp were purchased at the Northern Store in Attawapiskat and trucked to site via the De Beers winter road. Fuel requirements for the program were purchased through Greg's Fuels of Attawapiskat and Paytahpun Fuels of Moosonee. Shipment of fuel and other materials from Moosonee to site was provided by Moosonee Transportation Limited of Moosonee, Ontario. Helicopter support was provided by Canadian Helicopters of Les Cedres, Quebec. Helicopter support included the use of a Bell 206 Longranger as well as an Astar 350BA.

Details relating to allowable assessment work expenditures associated with this work are provided in Appendix I. As this work was conducted more than 24 prior to this assessment filing, expenditures being applied consist ofSO'Yo of the original allowable exploration costs. A listing of project personnel is provided in Appendix II.

4.2 DDH 01-F801-01

Drill hole 01-F801-01 was spotted at the centre of the magnetic anomaly outlined by the ground geophysical survey at grid coordinates 0+OON and 5+OOE (UTM 5856534N/324340E) (Appendix III). Drilling commenced on March 16 and was completed March 19. The vertical drill hole was intended to test the deep seated magnetic feature defined by the ground magnetic survey. The magnetic body was explained by the presence of strongly magnetic sulphide iron formation in the Precambrian basement,

288m below the present surface. Drilling was terminated at 317.5m in oxide/sulphide iron formation. A detailed drill log for 01-F801-01 is provided in Appendix III.

5.0 CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS

Drill hole 01-F801-01 explained the source of a deep seated magnetic anomaly as sulphide-rich iron formation. The drill core is stored and the drill site, with the exception of the section from 286.15m to 317.5m wihin is stored at the site of the Kat Project exploration camp.

Costs relating to this work should be filed for assessment credit.

01-F801-01 Detailed Log

0.0 - 3.0m Overburden

3.0 - 288.3m Paleozoic Limestone (Undifferentiated)

The Paleozoic stratigraphy was not logged in detail above 286.15 metres.

288.3 - 317.5m Graphitic Oxide/Sulphide Iron Formation

This unit is highly altered down to ~297m, with most sulphides and magnetite altered to bright yellow and red clays with significant graphite. Most of the magnetism and original rock fabric is gone from the rock. It is most likely that this upper portion of the unit was altered by penetration of overlying sea waters, as suggested by the presence of carbonate stringer-like veinlets in this part of the section. This is a very pretty rock.

297 - 306m: The rock displays a decrease in the alteration of sulphides and magnetite to bright yellow and red clays and a significant increase in graphite content (locally exceeding 50*5-0 of the rock). The rock is black in colour, more dense, contains unaltered sulphides (py + po), and becomes more magnetic with depth.

306 - 317.5m: The rock over this interval is prominently banded, with the banding made more pronounced by pyrite/pyhrrotite bands. The bands are oriented at 200 to the core axis. The sulphide bands actually occur more as stretched out rods or pencils, elongated in the direction of the banding and locally boudinaged. Pyhrrotite content increases down section, often occurring at the centre of the sulphide rods with an outer white quartz rim. This latter feature is not always well developed. Sulphides compose up to 25 07o of the rock near the base of the section, with the remainder composed of graphite, magnetite and quartz. Significant fine grained amphibole may also be present. Fractures at the bottom of the section show slickensides parallel to the core axis.
