RECITALS:

Avalon Gold Corporation is a Public Company, which is fully trading on the
Nasdaq OTC Bulletin Board in the United States of America Public Markets (Symbol
: AVGC) and is desirous of acquiring an asset to work with and increase in value
for the benefit of its shareholders. Tom Bergman is the owner of a mineral asset
in the form of certain State of Nevada Mining Claims (claims) known as Lode
Mining Claims LSA1, LSA2, LSA3, LSA4, LSA5, LSA6, LSA7, (140Acres) located in
Lander County, Nevada, in sections 14 and 23, Township 31N, Range 43E, in the
Mt. Diablo meridian.

Tom Bergman will transfer a ninety-percent (90%) ownership in the claims,
retaining a non-assessable, carried ten-percent (10%), and Avalon agrees to
acquire and take full responsibility for the claims for the purpose of
increasing the claims value.

UNDER THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS AS FOLLOWS:

(1)  Avalon, upon signing this agreement, will pay the sum of $1,000.00 USD to
     Tom Bergman and will issue 1,000,000 Avalon shares to Tom Bergman and/or
     his nominees; which stock will be classified as being under rule 144 of the
     Securities and Exchange Commission for a period of one year, with trading
     restrictions under rule 144 for another year.

(2)  Avalon will, in addition to the treasury stock being transferred to Tom
     Bergman and/or his nominees upon signing this agreement, agree to a further
     payment of $5,000.00 USD in cash or stock equivalent of Avalon shares to
     Tom Bergman, ninety  (90) days from the date of this agreement.

(3)  Avalon will subsequently agree to further payments of $2,000.00 USD in cash

     payments due to him and/or his nominees.

(5)  The ten-percent (10%) retained interest of Tom Bergman in the claims is
     non-assessable, meaning that Avalon cannot make a funds call to Tom Bergman
     and /or his nominees for any reason whatsoever and cannot for any reason
     reduce the ten-percent (10%) retained interest.  In the event of Avalon
     selling their interest in the claims, Tom Bergman would continue to have a
     ten-percent (10%) non-assessable interest ownership under the same terms
     and conditions of this agreement, unless Tom Bergman agrees to sell his
     interest to the purchaser of Avalon's interest.  In any event Avalon has a
     first right of refusal to purchase the retained interest of Tom Bergman ,
     should Tom Bergman decide to sell his interest.  In addition, and in the
     event that Avalon for any reason decides to sell their interest in the
     claims within thirteen (13) months from the date of signing this agreement,
     it will be entirely Avalon's decision.

     out to the proper government office to be submitted with the paperwork
     prepared by Tom Bergman. Fees for the years 2003/2004 become due September
     1 and the necessary amounts will be provided to Avalon by Tom Bergman

(7)  The State of Nevada requires that work must be performed on the claims each
     year before the 1st of September and recorded at the mining office.  Avalon
     will be responsible to insure that this assessment work is accomplished.
     Tom Bergman will assist Avalon, but the ultimate responsibility will be
     with Avalon. Mining Claim assessment work basically consists of performing
     a minimum of $100.00 worth of work per claim, per year before 1st day of
     September. Assessment work can be Labor, Equipment time, sampling,
     basically anything that improves the claims.  Tom Bergman must notify
     Avalon of requirements on a timely basis.

(8)  In the event that Avalon does not perform the required assessment work on
     the claims by or before August 1st of any year, Tom Bergman reserves the
     right to perform that work under Nevada State Law. Further, if Avalon does
     not pay the required fees by the State of Nevada on or before October 20th
     of any year, Tom Bergman reserves the right to pay the fees under Nevada
     State Law.

(9)  Avalon agrees to conduct itself concerning the claims in a manner so as to
     not cause the claims to suffer any undue legal or other undesirable
     problems.
