SOUTH MONITOR PROJECT - NEVADA

The South Monitor gold prospect is located 40 km southeast of Tonopah, Nevada. The property consists of 114 claims for a total of 2280 acres. In 2002 Golconda acquired an 80% interest in the property. A total of 96 holes were drilled on the property prior to Golconda’s involvement.

Golconda drilled a total of 31 holes which encountered widespread gold mineralization and proved that the gold continued at least to a depth of 700 feet. Golconda found a strong bonanza vein type feeder zone in Tertiary Tuff in the southeast part of the claims. The zone is barren at surface. The zone seems to be about 400 ft wide and can be traced for about 3500 ft along strike. It is characterized by strong potassic alteration. It has been intersected by two holes only. The one hole intersected 120 ft of 0.115 oz gold/ton. Several holes were terminated in the overlying clay blanket.
