With the initial broad spaced drilling near completion, phase 2 delineation drilling programs focused on the higher grade chutes on the Buffalo West Extension and the Laverty Corridor will commence in early May. The goal of this follow-up program will be to define NI-43-101 compliant resources for release by mid to late summer.

Mega management believe that their Laverty and East My-Ritt properties are all part of a much larger gold system that encompasses the adjacent Howey, Hasaga and Gold Shore mines which historically produced approximately 640,000 ounces of gold. Mega has an option to acquire a 100% interest in both Laverty and East My-Ritt properties. The property mineralization hosts two styles of gold mineralization, including the near surface, steeply dipping north-northwest striking diabase Dyke Zone, and the east-west trending, steeply dipping gold mineralization in sheared granodiorite.

The prolific Red Lake camp has produced more than 25 million ounces of gold and production of about 700,000 ounces of gold per year continue as the district's production base from Goldcorp's Red Lake Gold Mines. When compared to other camps, Red Lake is still a young and developing camp where consolidation, mechanization, improvements to processing technology and "Big Picture" economics will improve margins and drive future success
