In addition, the Company controls approximately 36% of Upper Canada Gold Corporation (TSX.V symbol "UCC") which is represented by 11,744,752 Upper Canada Gold shares owned by Opawica. The principal asset of UCC is the Dingman gold-aggregate deposit located in southeastern Ontario.The Company's current exploration and development efforts are concentrated on its 100% owned Atikwa Lake-Maybrun gold and copper project located about 120 kilometres southeast of Kenora, Ontario. The Company commissioned Golder Associates Ltd. (“Golder”) to prepare an NI 43-101 report on the Atikwa Lake property which included modeling of the mineralization associated with the resources at Atikwa Lake, as well as independent resource calculations. This initial report was completed in March 2009. On August 31, 2009, the Company filed a new NI 43-101 report by Robert Laakso, P.Eng, which included new resource estimates on the Atikwa Lake Project.The Atikwa Lake Project is a former 500 tpd producing gold and copper mine that has been on stand-by care and maintenance since 1973. Opawica is currently carrying out a Preliminary Scoping Study that initially will be limited to the existing historic Maybrun Mine footprint and infrastructure.The study will determine if preliminary economic considerations may be applied to at least 1,800,000 tonnes of higher grade open-pit resources that are within the larger overall Maybrun Main Indicated Resource. This preliminary study will use a production rate of up to 500 tpd for a minimum 10 year period.

Anatolia Minerals is an emerging gold producer and leading minerals explorer in Turkey. The Company discovered and is developing the Çöpler Gold Project, which hosts gold reserves and resources in excess of 6 million ounces and remains open. Construction for the initial oxide phase at Çöpler is fully permitted and funded. First gold pour is slated for the 4th quarter 2010. Growth opportunities for Anatolia Minerals drive from a pipeline of precious and base metals properties and a strategic alliance with Çalik Mining -- a member company of a leading Turkish conglomerate. Near term expansion of both oxide and sulfide potential at Çöpler are being advanced. Longer-term prospects include two nearby copper/gold porphyry deposits -- Cevizlidere and Karakartal - and numerous grassroots prospects throughout Turkey. Anatolia Minerals is dedicated to ethical and responsible mining and exploration practices, with its employees committed to implementing and continuously improving standards for safety, health, environmental and community stewardship.

Baffinland is a Canadian company that was formed pursuant to Articles of Incorporation under the Business Corporation Act (Ontario) on March 10, 1986. The Company owns three mining leases covering approximately 1,600 hectares in the Mary River area, Baffin Island, Nunavut, Canada. The Company is a mineral exploration and development company with a sole focus on the advancement of its Mary River Property, which consists of four high-grade hematite/magnetite deposits (the “Project”). The Project is in its early stages after having been originally discovered and studied in the 1960’s. Notwithstanding current global recessionary conditions, which have significantly impacted the European and North American commodity markets, iron ore market trends are still seen as favourable. Although current iron ore prices have decreased by approximately 30% since the downturn began in late 2008 it is the opinion of the Company’s management that prices are likely to rebound somewhat in the next year. In addition, iron ore and steel industry consolidation continues. Since 2004, Baffinland has been engaged in a wide spectrum of activities supporting the development of the Mary River iron ore deposits. These activities have included the delineation of mineral resources and estimation of mineral reserves, extensive metallurgical testing of the iron ore, field engineering data collection, environmental and socio-economic baseline studies, and evaluation of shipping lanes. A bulk sample was shipped to two key customers in Europe in 2008. The DFS, coordinated by Aker Solutions was completed in 2008, followed by initiation of the regulatory review process and basic engineering design. As a result of the current world economic outlook and the Company’s current resources, basic engineering and other technical support services were suspended in December 2008 and a review of the proposed Project timeline was initiated. Re-initiation of engineering and related technical support services will be contingent on the Company raising funds to complete such activities. As a result of a decision from the Minister of Indian and Northern Affairs Canada in reference to the regulatory review process, in 2009 the Company is pursuing the terms of reference guiding the submission of an Environmental Impact Statement, the submission of which will be contingent on further financing. In the meantime, a modest exploration program is underway to continue development on Deposit No. 1.

Anglo American's name might be a little misleading -- it's never been American. The UK-based company owns significant stakes in global producers of platinum (75% of Anglo Platinum) and diamonds (45% of De Beers S.A.). In addition, Anglo American has interests in ferrous and base metals and industrial minerals; it also is among the world's largest coal miners. Anglo American has spent much of the decade reorganizing its portfolio and has narrowed its focus. Though it used to have a majority stake in AngloGold Ashanti, Anglo American divested its remaining shares in 2009. The founding Oppenheimer family no longer controls Anglo American, though Nicky Oppenheimer, who chairs De Beers, sits on the board.
