4 1.0 SUMMARY This report describes a program of exploration undertaken during August 2011 on the Peavine Property, 100% by DGW & Assoiciates. The property is being held in trust by James Thom. The property is located ~26 kilometers east of Clearwater B.C. of Central British Columbia. The property consists of one claim and covers an area of 1.40 km 2. DGW & Associates completed a reconnaissance trip to the Peavine property with the mandate of determining accessibility and to locate the Peavine Creek Showing indicated in the ARIS report. Five quartz carbonate vein samples were also collected from the area to be assayed and petrographicaly described in the future. The accessibility was found to be in great condition and access by 4x4 truck or ATV is easily manageable. The Peavine showing was not located on this property visit. However a number of quartz carbonate veins were identified in the Peavine Creek metabasalts. DGW & Associates Peavine A Assessment Report Page 4

5 2.0 INTRODUCTION This report has been written in order to satisfy assessment requirements for SOW: This report describes the geology, a brief work history and the program of exploration undertaken during August 2011 on the Peavine claim group, 100% owned by DGW & Associates and being held in trust by James Thom. The 2011 property visit was carried out by the author. All UTM locations given are from the NAD83 ZONE11 projection. 2.1 Property Description and Location The PEAVINE Property is located in the Kamloops Mining Division, in the Kamloops-North Thompson Electorial District, of Central British Columbia, Canada. The property covers hectares. The Peavine Property is situated on N.T.S. map sheet 082M (1:250,000), 082M/12, (1:50,000) and 082M/062, (1:20,000). The property consists of one claim group. The claim group, known as the Peavine claim group, consists of one (1) claim covering approximately hectares. The status of the claim is given in Table 1. The Peavine Property is 100% owned DGW & Associates and is being held in trust by Dorian Leslie. Figures 1 3 illustrate project location and infrastructure at two scales. 2.2 Access, Climate, Local Resources and Physiography Access to the Peavine Property is afforded by the paved road via Route #5 (Southern Yellowhead Highway) for a distance of approximately 26 kilometres east of Clearwater, BC. Driving time from Vancouver to Clearwater is approximately 6 hours. Driving distance from Clearwater to the unpaved tertiary logging road turn off is approximately 14 kilometers. The Peavine Property itself is covered by a network of variously maintained roads and trails. This access affords excellent ability to reach most areas of the Property by 4x4 or ATV vehicle. The Peavine Property is located on Mount McClennan; which is situated to the north of the North Thompson River midway between the communities of Birch Island and Vavenby. The property covers a portion of the steep south facing lower slope of the Mountain. Table 1.

6 3.0 HISTORY Where no specific reference is listed, information has been taken from the British Columbia Minister of Mines Annual reports, from the BC Geological Survey Branch Mineral Inventory File (MINFILE) and Ministry of Mines. 3.1 History of Exploration, Peavine Project Claim Group The claims were staked to include an old mineral prospect identified by Placer Dome in Assessment Reports: 12080, and The mineral prospect identified by Placer Dome but not reported in the British Columbia Ministry of Energy and Mines Minfile Showings, is located in the bed of Peavine Creek. It consists of a series of narrow sulphide rich carbonate veins which cut metabasalt immediately be a limestone interbed. The veins are rich in Au, Ag, As, Cu, Pb, Zn and Hg. Exploration on the Peavine Creek Property by Placer Dome included: geological mapping, soil sampling, stream sediment program and a VLF and Mag geophysical survey. The results from these exploration programs resulted in Placer Dome interpreting that the Peavine Creek showing has little geophycial and geochemical response.

7 4.0 GEOLOGY 4.1 REGIONAL GEOLOGY The regional geology of the project area is taken from Paper , BCDM Geological Fieldwork 1981, Clearwater Area by P. Schiarizza. Figure 2 shows the generalized geology of the Clearwater Area. The figure shows that claims are underlain by a package of complex deformed and metamorphosed sedimentary and volcanic strata. The package is assigned to the Lower Cambrian to Mississipian Eaglebay Formation. The assemblage includes chloritic schist and greenstone, predominantly derived from mafic volcanic and volcaniclastic strata and intercalated limestone. The greenstone unit appears to be tectonically overthrust onto a mixed predominantly metasedimentary package. The latter consists of dark grey phyllite with intercalated fine clastic sediment; light to medium greenish-grey chlorite-sericitequartz schist intercalated with siliceous sediment and light to medium grey quartzite. The sediment is locally calcareous and it contains intercalations of limestone. DGW & Associates Peavine A Assessment Report Page 7

8 EXPLORATION PROGRAM The 2011 exploration program covered in this report consisted of a reconnaissance trip to the property to find the location of the Peavine showing, determine the condition of the logging roads and collect a representative suite of rocks from the area for petrographic study. The Peavine showing was not located during this property visit but it was found that the logging roads were great condition and allow easy access by 4x4 or quad. Five quartz carbonate vein samples were also collected from the area to be assayed and petrographicaly described in the future. The locations of these samples are shown in Figure 3.

9 6.0 CONCLUSIONS DGW & Associates completed a reconnaissance trip to the Peavine property with the mandate of determining accessibility and to locate the Peavine Creek Showing indicated in the ARIS report. Five quartz carbonate vein samples were also collected from the area to be assayed and petrographicaly described in the future. The accessibility was found to be in great condition and access by 4x4 truck or ATV is easily manageable. The Peavine showing was not located on this property visit. However a number of quartz carbonate veins were identified in the Peavine Creek metabasalts. Recommendations: Locate the Peavine showing DGW & Associates Peavine A Assessment Report Page 9
