--  Renegotiated the agreement covering the Corporation's La Josefina
    project  
    --  On November 15, 2012 the Corporation signed an amendment to its La
        Josefina exploration agreement extending the exploration term by 7
        years, ending June 30, 2019.  
    --  The amendment allows for the Corporation to purchase 100% of the
        back in, if exercised by Fomicruz.  

--  Acquired the right to explore the La Valenciana project 
    --  On November 15, 2012 the Corporation entered into an agreement for
        the La Valenciana project, the exploration term is 7 years, ending
        October 31, 2019.  
    --  The agreement gives the Corporation the option to purchase 100% of
        the back in, if exercised by Fomicruz. 
    --  The project is contiguous with both Coeur d'Alene Mines
        Corporation's Joaquin Silver Project and the Corporation's La
        Josefina project. 

--  Formed a strategic exploration alliance with Eldorado Gold Corporation  
    --  Gives the Corporation the ability to explore its entire Santa Cruz
        land package with a leading mid-tier gold producer. 

--  Maintained a disciplined capital allocation strategy, ending the year
    with a strong balance sheet of $5.2 million cash on hand. 



Field work in 2012 and early in 2013 focused on preliminary exploration of
property blocks, most of which fall under the Corporation's exploration alliance
with Eldorado Gold Corporation, in effect since May of 2012. This work generated
multiple targets that the company plans to follow-up on during subsequent
exploration campaigns. This year's activities included, but were not limited to:




--  Survey and mapping of infrastructure including: 
    --  Roads, tracks and trails 
    --  Fences, gates and ranches 
    --  Surface ownership property boundaries 
--  Construction, installation and improvement(s) to satellite camps for
    logistical support of field crews operating in remote areas 
--  Acquisition of detailed remote sensing imagery to cover prospective
    ground in western Santa Cruz including all of the Corporation's
    exploration packages 
--  Acquisition of high resolution satellite imagery to cover proposed
    future drill targets on Bajo Pobre and El Gateado property blocks 
--  Analysis, interpretation and field verification of project imagery to
    aid in prioritization of prospective areas, detailed geological mapping,
    identification of structural settings, and creation of base maps for
    data compilation 
--  Preliminary reconnaissance sampling covering 1500 square kilometers on
    nine separate property blocks. Work included, but was not limited to: 
    --  First-pass field evaluation of prioritized targets 
    --  Collection of approximately 900 sediment, soil and rock samples 
    --  Regional to detailed geological mapping of exposed lithology,
        stratigraphy, structure and alteration 
    --  Preparation and shipping of collected samples for analysis 
    --  Collection and delivery of material and supplies to support
        exploration crews 
--  Field reconnaissance, with a focus on due-diligence, for possible
    acquisition of new opportunities, located both inside and outside the
    current area covered under the Corporation's exploration agreement with
    Eldorado Gold Corporation. Work included: 
    --  Determination of relative location, orientation and similarities to
        known mineralization or mineralized trends (mapping) 
    --  Identification and verification of exposed alteration and/or
        mineralization (mapping and sampling) 
    --  Determination of prospect potential 



2013 Exploration Plan: 



--  The Corporation plans to continue its 2013 regional exploration program
    in accordance with its exploration agreement with Eldorado Gold
    Corporation, the current program includes regional soil sampling,
