• Kaminak Gold Corporation owns 100% of the 525 claims (21,000 acres) Hemlo North property which covers gold targets in the Archean Hemlo Greenstone Belt of Ontario.
   
• Kaminak’s Hemlo North property is located directly north of the current Hemlo mine leases and patented claims owned by Teck Cominco Limited, Barrick Gold Corporation and Newmont Mining Corporation.
   
• The Hemlo gold camp represents one of the most prolific gold camps in Canada and has remained in continuous production since 1985.
   
• Kaminak’s exploration rationale at Hemlo is based on a structurally controlled “shear-zone model.” 
   
• Examination of publicly available geological reports and digital geophysical databases by Kaminak and consultant GeoVector Management Inc. strongly indicate the Hemlo deposits are related to a west-northwest trending shear zone. Further evidence suggests the presence of stacked or parallel shear zones north of this main ore trend.
   
• Kaminak’s technical team believes that there has been a lack of exploration directed towards shear zones models at Hemlo, thereby creating a new exploration opportunity in this district.
   
• 2007 Exploration Plans
  • Kaminak is planning an initial field program this summer consisting of geological and structural mapping and prospecting designed to ground-truth inferred structural targets.  This may be supplemented by soil geochemical surveys and ground geophysics. The goal of this program is to identify drill targets by this coming winter.
