3. OPTION TO PURCHASE

(a) Upon and subject to the terms and conditions of this  Agreement,  the Vendor
hereby  irrevocably  grants to the Purchaser the exclusive option to purchase an
<PAGE>
                                      -4-


undivided One Hundred  Percent  (100%)  right,  title and interest in and to the
Claims, free and clear of all liens, charges, royalties, encumbrances and claims
whatsoever,  except for the NSR. The purchase  price for the Claims shall be the
sum of $205,000,  which shall include the Deposit described below (the "Purchase
Price").  The Purchaser  shall have until the first  anniversary  of the date of
this Agreement to elect whether to exercise the option and complete the purchase
of the Claims.  The date of  completion  of the  purchase and sale of the Claims
(the "Closing  Date") shall be such date as may be  established by the Purchaser
but shall in no event be later  than the first  anniversary  of the date of this
Agreement.

(b) In order to maintain its option in good  standing,  the  Purchaser  shall be
required to pay to the Vendor the sum of $10,000  and issue and deliver  500,000
Common Shares (at a deemed price of $0.10 per share) as a non-refundable deposit
(collectively, the "Deposit") upon the execution and delivery of this Agreement.

(c) In the event that the  Purchaser  elects to  complete  the  purchase  of the
Claims  hereunder,  the  Purchaser  shall  notify the Vendor of its  election in
writing (the date of such notice being deemed the "Closing  Date") and shall pay
to the  Vendor the  balance of the  Purchase  Price,  payable in either  cash or
Common  Shares  at the  election  of the  Vendor by  notice  in  writing  to the
Purchaser  at least  ten (10)  days  prior to the  payment  date (and if no such
election is made, then in cash), as follows:

           Payment Date                                 Cash Payments
           ------------                                 -------------

     On or before April 30, 2010                    $ 25,000 (additional)

     On or before April 30, 2011                    $ 50,000 (additional)

     On or before April 30, 2012                    $ 70,000 (additional)

           TOTAL:                                   $145,000

In the  event  that  the  Vendor  elects  to be  paid  any  instalment  set  out
immediately  above in Common Shares,  then the Common Shares will be issued at a
deemed price of $0.10 per share.

(d) On the Closing Date, the Vendor will deliver to the Purchaser:

     (i)    evidence  that the Claims have been  transferred  to the  Purchaser,
            pursuant to the laws of Manitoba; and

     (ii)   all  non-public  data and other  information  in the  possession  or
            control of the Vendor with respect to the Claims.

(e) The Purchaser's  payment of the balance of the Purchase Price  ($145,000) as
set out under Section 3(c) above,  shall be secured by a promissory  note in the
form attached as Schedule "B" (the "Promissory Note"). The Promissory Note shall
be an unsecured,  non-interest bearing,  limited recourse promissory note of the
Purchaser  in favour of the Vendor in the amount of the balance of the  Purchase
Price  ($145,000),  pursuant to which the  Purchaser  will pay to the Vendor the
Purchase  Price in staged  payments as  described in Section  3(c).  For greater
certainty,  in the event the  Purchaser is in default of its  obligations  under
Section  3(c),  then the Vendor  agrees  that the only  recourse  the Vendor has
<PAGE>
                                      -5-


against the Purchaser or under the  Promissory  Note is the return of the Claims
to the Vendor and any payments already made by the Purchaser pursuant to Section
3(c) shall be forfeited.

4. MAINTAIN THE CLAIMS

(a) Until the earlier of the date that the Promissory Note has been paid in full
or the date upon which the Claims are fully  returned to the Vendor  pursuant to
Section 3(e) as a consequence of the  Purchaser's  default in making any payment
under the  Promissory  Note, the Purchaser  shall be responsible  for making all
payments  required to maintain the Claims in good  standing  including,  but not
limited to, all rentals, levies, duties, royalties,  assessments, fees, taxes or
other governmental charges levied with respect to the Claims.

(b) In the event that the Purchaser does not elect to purchase the Claims or the
Purchaser  defaults on the  Promissory  Note,  and  possession  of the Claims is
therefore  returned to the Vendor,  then the Purchaser will ensure that adequate
work is filed or  assessment  fees paid to leave the Claims in good standing for
at least another twelve (12) months from the date the Claims are returned..

5. OPERATOR

(a) The Purchaser  shall have the right to appoint an operator on and in respect
of the Claims and may appoint itself as operator.

6. AREA OF MUTUAL INTEREST AND RIGHT OF FIRST OFFER

(a) For a period of five (5) years  following  the Closing  Date,  the Purchaser
shall  have a right of first  offer (the  "ROFO")  in  respect  of any  proposed
disposition by the Vendor,  or its  affiliates or  associates,  of any direct or
indirect interests in any mineral claims or properties located within an area of
mutual  interest of two (2) kilometres of the exterior  boundaries of the Claims
and which are  presently  held or which are acquired  prior to the expiry of the
ROFO by the Vendor or its affiliates or associates (an "AMI Property Interest").
During the term of the ROFO,  the Vendor shall notify the Purchaser of the terms
and conditions of any proposed disposition of an AMI Property.

(b) The ROFO may be  exercised by the  Purchaser  within 15 days  following  the
receipt of the notice from the Vendor  referred to in Section  6(a) by notifying
the Vendor  that it will  acquire  the AMI  Property  Interest  on the terms and
conditions set out in the Vendor's notice.

(c) If the Purchaser  fails to give the notice  contemplated  by Section 6(b) to
the Vendor within the requisite 15 days, the Vendor will then be free to dispose
of the AMI  Property  Interest to an arm's  length third party on the same terms
and conditions or on such other terms and  conditions no less  favourable to the
Vendor,  provided  that if the Vendor fails to complete such  disposition  to an
arm's length third party within 60 days of the expiry of the  aforementioned  15
day period, the provisions of this Section 6 will again become applicable to any
proposed disposition by the Vendor of the subject AMI Property Interest.

(d) The ROFO will not  terminate  if, on receipt  of any notice  from the Vendor
under this Section 6, the Purchaser fails to exercise the ROFO.

(e) For further clarity,  any additional  mineral claims,  mineral properties or
interests or rights therein  staked or otherwise  acquired by the Vendor outside
of the ROFO  area  described  in  Section  6(a)  shall not be  governed  by this
Agreement and shall,  in the event such  properties are offered by the Vendor to
the Purchaser,  be governed by a separate  agreement  containing  such terms and
conditions as may be negotiated between the parties.

not to be unreasonably withheld.

9. DEFAULT

(a) In the event that the  Purchaser  is in  default  of any of its  obligations
hereunder, the Purchaser will not lose any rights under this Agreement until the
Vendor has given to the Purchaser  notice of such default and the Purchaser does
not take any reasonable  steps to cure such default within thirty (30) days from
the Purchaser's receipt of such notice.
