The ABG Group can trace its origins in Tanzania back to March 1999, when Barrick acquired the Bulyanhulu property as part of its acquisition of Sutton Resources Ltd. Shortly thereafter, in July 2000, Barrick acquired the Tulawaka and Buzwagi properties as part of its acquisition of Pangea Goldfields Inc. ("PGI"). In 2006, the North Mara mine was added to the ABG Group as part of Barrick's acquisition of Placer Dome Inc. Over the past decade, The Tanzanian mines have made significant investments both to drive operating efficiency and to increase production, resulting in 2009 gold production of approximately 716,000 attributable ounces (an approximate 31.5 per cent. increase from 2008). The effects of this commitment in relation to the operating mines of the ABG Group can be seen at each of its existing mining operations.

Yorbeau Resources Inc. is a Canadian public company (TSX:YRB.A) involved in gold exploration in Quebec, Canada. Its properties are located in a northwestern area of the province associated with a large number of significant deposits, namely the Cadillac-Larder Lake region on the famed Abitibi Greenstone Belt. Some 200 million ounces of gold have thus far been mined in the area.At the present time, Yorbeau is focusing on its Rouyn Property which has demonstrated the most immediate and substantial prospects for discovery of a major gold deposit and eventual mine development. Representing a consolidation of several contiguous properties strategically located on a famously productive mineralized trend in the Noranda mining camp, the Rouyn Property is divided into seven "Blocks": Augmitto, Cinderella, Durbar, Lake Gamble, Astoria, Wright-Rouyn and Lake Bouzan. Other holdings of the Company include its interest in the Beschefer Property in northwestern Quebec, as well as a net smelter return royalty on the Ellison Property in Bousquet Township of Quebec, a property that Agnico-Eagle Mines purchased from Yorbeau in 2002.

Wits Basin owns the Bates-Hunter Gold Mine in Central City, Colorado. Discovery of gold at the Bates-Hunter Mine in 1859 kicked off the Colorado gold rush and established Denver as a major American city. All mines in the area went dormant in 1936. This mining district has historically produced more than 4 million ounces of gold. Twenty-five percent (25%) of all the gold mined came from the area immediately surrounding the Bates-Hunter mine. Wits Basin's property controls the 15 principal veins underlying the mine. The veins historically produced about 750,000 ounces mined to an average depth of 600 feet. When the mine was closed, the mineshaft reached 800 feet. Drilling in the 1990's confirmed grades of 0.48 ounces over 10-foot widths with veins ranging from 2 to 20 feet wide. Workings down to the 800-foot level confirm that the gold veins continue to depth. Similarly mineralized properties in the region have been mined to 2,250 feet in depth.

Canada Gold doesn't actually mine for gold in Canada. In fact, it doesn't mine for gold anywhere else either. Its 2009 acquisition of Canadian Ore Processors gave the company a 50% stake in a gold ore processing facility in Peru that will serve companies that do all the mining. The other half is owned by Grafton Resources Investment Trust, which retains the option to sell its stake to Canada Gold by 2012. Now under construction, the facility is scheduled to begin operations by the end of 2010; it's located in northern Peru and would be the first of its kind in the mineral-rich area. Canada Gold changed its name from Metalquest Minerals after buying Canadian Ore Processors.

Los Andes Copper is a Canadian exploration and development company that holds an interest in the advanced stage Vizcachitas porphyry copper-molybdenum deposit in Region V, Chile. Vizcachitas is located in an area of excellent infrastructure including available water, road access to the site, power approximately 40km away and ports and smelters within 200km. The deposit has the potential for a low strip open pit operation. The Vizcachitas deposit is located in the prolific central Chile Late Miocene-Pliocene metallogenic belt that also includes the world class El Teniente (78.64Mt Cu), Los Pelambres/El Pachon (26.42Mt Cu) and Rio Blanco/Los Bronces (52.43Mt Cu) deposits. The geology is typical of Andean porphyry copper molybdenum deposits and shares several characteristics with other deposits in the belt. To date, an interim NI43-101 compliant indicated sulphide resource of 515M tonnes grading 0.39% Cu and 0.011% Mo (0.46% CuEq), and an inferred sulphide resource of 572M tonnes grading 0.34% Cu and 0.012% Mo (0.41% CuEq) at a 0.3% CuEq. cut-off have been defined on the property. These resources represent a total of 8.72 billion pounds of contained copper and 276 million pounds of contained molybdenum. A small resource of oxide/transitional material is also present. Los Andes continues drilling on the property to expand these resources. Recently, Los Andes engaged AMEC to undertake a scoping study/preliminary economic analysis. This study is expected to be completed by March 2009.
