                                     SUMMARY

Armitage  Mining  Corp.  is the  optionor  of  the  mineral  rights  to a 164 ha
unpatented  mining  property in the Sudbury  area of  northeastern  Ontario (the
"Wanapitei  River"  property).  The  property  is located in  Scadding  Township
approximately 30 km northeast of the City of Sudbury. This region is believed to
have the  potential  to host  economic  deposits  of gold,  copper,  nickel  and
platinum-group metals.

The Wanapitei River property is underlain by  Paleoproterozoic-age  sediments of
the  Huronian  Supergroup.  The  sediments  were  intruded by sills or sheets of
Nipissing diabase CIRCA 2.2 Ga.

Five styles of  mineralization,  observed in other  occurrences  throughout  the
region,  have  particular  importance  for  exploration  on the Wanapitei  River
property.  Two  styles  of  mineralization  are  related  to  Nipissing  diabase
intrusives:  the accumulation of copper and nickel sulphides with platinum group
metals can occur at or near the base of an  intrusive,  while quartz - carbonate
veining  at or near  the  upper  contact  of a  gabbro,  especially  in  sheared
portions,   has  the   potential   to  host  gold   mineralization.   Skarn-like
mineralization  can be present where the gabbros intruded  calcareous rock types
(e.g.  limestones of the Espanola  Formation);  this style of  mineralization is
noted  on  mining  claims  in the  vicinity  of the  Wanapitei  River  property.
Elsewhere, quartz - carbonate flooding of altered and brecciated portions of the
Huronian  Supergroup  are  known to host  copper  and gold  mineralization.  The
associated alteration includes carbonatization, chloritization and albitization.
Mineral deposits in the region are also related to copper - nickel bodies within
the margin of the Sudbury  Igneous  Complex  and Offset  dikes  associated  with
Sudbury breccia.

The  Wanapitei  River  claim is regarded as  comprising  a property  that merits
additional exploration expenditures.  Recommendations are made for the continued
exploration  and  evaluation  of the  property.  The  program  of work  includes
linecutting,  geophysical surveying, mapping, prospecting, and sampling. A total
expenditure  of  $US145,000   (excluding  GST)  in  a  three-phase   program  of
exploration is recommended.

Lake Nipissing  ecoregion of the Boreal Shield.  The following  descriptions are
derived  largely from the work of the  Ecological  Stratification  Working Group
(1998).

The region is classified as having a humid high cool temperate  ecoclimate.  The
area is  located 10 km to the  northeast  of Sudbury  Airport  (YSB),  for which
extensive  climatic records are available from Environment  Canada.  The average
mean annual temperature is 3.5(degree)C.  The average daily temperature range in
summer is from 11.8(degree)C to 23.1(degree)C  while in winter the average range
is from  -16.8(degree)C to -6.9(degree)C.  Average yearly  precipitation for the
area is 872 mm and the  month-end  snow cover is deepest in January and February
with an average of 40 cm.

3.3 LOCAL RESOURCES

The  dominant  land cover is mixed wood  forest of sugar  maple,  yellow  birch,
poplar, eastern hemlock, and eastern white pine. Wetter sites support red maple,
black ash, white spruce,  tamarack and eastern white cedar. The area is strongly
glaciated and is  characterized by ridged to hummocky rock outcrops covered with
discontinuous  acidic morainal tills. Bedrock exposure is about 25%. Humo-Ferric
Podzols are the dominant with  significant  Gleysolic soils.  Wildlife  includes
white-tailed  deer, wolf, lynx, moose, black bear,  chipmunk,  snowshoe hare and
beaver.  Forestry,  mining and tourism are important land uses in the region;  a
number of tourist  camps and cottages are present in the  immediate  vicinity of
the Scadding Township property.  Low-intensity  farming,  primarily grazing,  is
scattered throughout the ecoregion.

3.4 INFRASTRUCTURE

The  proximity  to the  Sudbury  mining  camp and the  history  of past  mineral
production  in and in the vicinity of Scadding  Township  provides all manner of
infrastructure  necessary for the timely  exploration and development of mineral
properties in the area. The smelter complex of  Falconbridge  Limited lies 12 km
to the southwest of the property  area;  the smelter has the capacity to produce
130,000 t of nickel  matte per  annum and is  currently  underutilized.  Sudbury
Airport is located only 10 km to the southwest of the property.

                                4 PREVIOUS WORK

4.1  GOVERNMENT SURVEYS

Geology of the  region has been  mapped  over the years by the  agencies  of the
Ontario  Government.  This work  includes the mapping of Maclennan  and Scadding
Townships  by  Thomson  (1961),  Falconbridge  Township  by  Thomson  (1959) and
Dressler (1987),  Janes,  McNish,  Pardo and Dana Townships by Bruce (1932), the
Ashigami Lake area by Fairbairn (1939), Kelly and Davis Townships by Thomson and
Card (1963),  McNish and Janes Townships by Dressler (1979),  the Wanapitei Lake
area by  Dressler  (1982) and  Street  Township  by Easton  and  Murphy  (2002).
Additional  government studies have focused on regional geological  compilations
(Dressler,  1984; Easton, 2001), mineral occurrences (Gates, 1991), stratigraphy
(Debicki,  1990),  regional  geochemistry  (Tardif,  2000) and  assessment  data
inventories (Ontario Geological Survey, 1987a; 1987b).

4.2 EXPLORATION WORK

Occurrences of native gold have been known since the late 1800s in the Wanapitei
Lake region (Fairbairn, 1939). Bruce (1932) suggests that after the discovery of
silver  mineralization  to the north in the Gowganda area much of the region was
prospected in an attempt to locate additional deposits. Considerable exploration
also occurred after the discovery of major copper - nickel deposits in Maclennan
and Falconbridge Townships.

Much of the  exploration  in the region has focused on the margin of the Sudbury
Igneous  Complex and related  Contact  Sublayer  exposures  and Offset  dikes as
targets for copper and nickel  mineralization.  The results of some of this work
will be further discussed under Local Mineral Occurrences in Section 6.2.

The only  recorded work over the current  property area is airborne  geophysical
surveys  carried  out by the  Canadian  Nickel  Company  Ltd.  in 1981  (Ontario
Geological Survey, 1987a; 1987b). No anomalies of significance were reported.

Undocumented  exploration work by Falconbridge Limited and Inco Limited has been
carried out over the property area and  environs.  This work is believed to have
consisted of airborne and ground  geophysical  surveys,  geological  mapping and
sampling.  It is estimated  that the total  apportioned  cost of these  programs
would have  exceeded  $100,000.  The  results of this work are not in the public
domain.

Immediately to the west of the property,  recorded exploration work for gold has
been undertaken by Inco Exploration and Technical  Services,  Inc.  (mapping and
geophysics,  1989)  and  T.  Fielding  (prospecting,   trenching  and  sampling,
1998-1999).

4.3  CURRENT WORK

The area is being actively  explored by companies such as Millstream Mines Ltd.,
Wallbridge  Mining Company  Limited,  Aurora Platinum  Limited and JML Resources
Ltd.

No work to date has been carried out on the property on the behalf of Armitage.

5.1 REGIONAL GEOLOGY

     5.1.1 Introduction

     The  Scadding  Township  area is  located  within the  Southern  Structural
     Province of the  Canadian  Shield.  Figure 4 presents a map of the regional
     geology of the  Sudbury  area;  rocks types on this map are  subdivided  by
     lithology without particular  reference to age or setting.  Key elements of
     economic  geology are also found on this map. The  accompanying  legend for
     the map is found in Figure 4A.

     5.1.2 Huronian Supergroup

     In this region of central and northeastern  Ontario,  the Southern Province
     comprises rocks of the Huronian Supergroup:  sedimentary and basal volcanic
     rocks of Paleoproterozoic age (2.22 Ga to 2.50 Ga) that were deposited in a
     divergent  tectonic  regime that was  subsequently  affected by convergence
     (the Penokean Orogeny).

     Rocks of the Huronian  Supergroup lie  unconformably  upon the  Archean-age
     rocks of the Superior  Province.  The preservation of paleosols is noted at
     this unconformity in the western part of region.  The Archean-age  basement
     forms  part  of the  Ramsey-Algoma  granitoid  complex  and is  made  up of
     granodioritic   and  agmatic   granitic  gneiss  and  foliated  to  massive
     granodioritic  plutons  (Jackson and Fyon,  1991).  Abundant  xenoliths and
     enclaves of volcanosedimentary supracrustal rocks (I.E., "greenstones") are
     present (E.G., Benny and Temagami belts).

     The Huronian  Supergroup  consists of four groups.  The oldest  group,  the
     Elliot Lake Group, is the only group to contain  volcanic rocks in addition
     to clastic  sedimentary  rocks.  Though not specifically part of the group,
     layered  intrusions of  gabbroic-anorthositic  composition are found at the
     base of the  supergroup  at a number of  locations  (e.g.,  East Bull Lake,
     Shakespeare-Dunlop   Townships,  River  Valley,  Street  Township).  Felsic
     intrusives such as the Skead,  Murray and Creighton  plutons are thought to
     be coeval  subvolcanic  equivalents of the Elliot Lake Group volcanic rocks
     (Bennett ET AL., 1991).

     The remaining three groups,  namely the Hough Lake,  Quirke Lake and Cobalt
     Group in ascending  order, are each  characterized  by a sedimentary  cycle

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
June 15, 2004                                           John M. Siriunas, P.Eng.
<PAGE>
Report on the Wanapitei River (South) Property, Scadding Township        page 14
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------


     comprising  conglomerate  (tillite)  overlain by  mudstone,  siltstone  and
     arenites.   The  Quirke  Lake  Group  also  contains  calcareous  units.  A
     stratigraphic   column  which  sets  out  in  more  detail  the  individual
     formations that comprise the Huronian  Supergroup is presented in Figure 5.
     Formations  containing  sulphur-  or  sulphate-bearing  minerals  or  where
     sulphur  analyses  have been  published  are also  indicated.  The  present
     distribution of rocks of the Huronian  Supergroup  throughout the region is
     shown in Figure 6.

     5.1.3 Nipissing Diabase

     Nipissing  diabase is the name that was  adopted by Miller in 1913 to refer
     to a suite of  fractionated  tholeiitic  gabbroic  rocks  that are found as
     widespread intrusives throughout the Huronian Supergroup.  The gabbro forms
     dikes,  sills and  undulating  sheets up to several  hundred  meters thick.
     These  sheets are often  cone-shaped  around  original  feeder  dikes.  The
     intrusions are part of an event that occurred between 2.206 Ga and 2.223 Ga
     and may be a remnant of an eroded  continental  flood basalt  (Lightfoot ET
     AL., 1987).

     The typical lithologies occurring within an intrusion,  from studies in the
     region  around  Cobalt,  ON,  are shown in  schematic  section in Figure 7.
     Medium  grained,  two pyroxene gabbro or  gabbro-norite  is the most common
     rock type reported from regional field observations.

     Individual  gabbro bodies such as the Lake Wanapitei  Intrusion  (Dressler,
     1982) and the Janes Township  Intrusion (the Chiniguchi  River Intrusion of
     Jobin-Bevans ET AL., 1999) are observed to exhibit reverse  differentiation
     (Finn, 1981).

     5.1.4 Sudbury Structure

     Arguably the most profound  geological feature in the region is the Sudbury
     Structure:  a basin-like  feature created about 1.85 Ga by meteorite impact
     (Peredery and Morrison,  1984) or volcano-tectonism  (Muir, 1984). Rocks of
     the Whitewater  Group that fill the basin are interpreted as representing a
     fall-back  breccia  and  it's  various  reworked  components.  The  general
     distribution  of the  main  lithological  and  structural  features  of the
     Sudbury Structure are presented in Figure 8.

     The  margin of the basin is rimmed by the  Sudbury  Igneous  Complex or SIC
     (Naldrett,  1984). The SIC consists of a variety of igneous units that were
     intruded  along the contact of the  Whitewater  Group and basement rocks of
     either Archean or  Paleoproterozoic  age; it is believed that intrusion was

<PAGE>
Report on the Wanapitei River (South) Property, Scadding Township        page 15
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------


     initiated by the violent  geological  event that led to the  development of
     the Sudbury Structure. The igneous units comprising the SIC include a lower
     discontinuous  Contact Sublayer (gabbro and quartz diorite) overlain by the
     Main Mass made up of lower  norites  which  give way to quartz  gabbro  and
     granophyre.  An irregular zone of breccia, the Footwall Breccia,  comprised
     of fragments  derived from basement rocks,  also lies along the base of the
     SIC in the North and East Ranges  (margins).  The entire SIC is over 2000 m
     thick.

     Sudbury Breccia and pseudotachylites form patches, dikes and veins that cut
     all rocks older than the SIC. These have been recognized tens of kilometers
     from the Sudbury Structure (E.G.  Dressler,  1979;  1982).  Compositionally
     these rocks are chemically  similar to their host rocks and are believed to
     have been  formed by the IN SITU  milling of the host rock in  response  to
     abrupt  tectonic  forces.  Several  occurrences  are noted in  Falconbridge
     (Thomson,  1959; Dressler,  1987) and west-central Street Townships (Easton
     and Murphy, 2002).

     Radial or  concentric  ("offset")  dikes around the basin are thought to be
     part  of the  Contact  Sublayer  of  the  SIC.  The  Manchester  offset  in
     Falconbridge Township is a 5-km long concentric dike that strikes northeast
     -  southwest.  The  dike is 12 m to 30 m wide and  comprises  discontinuous
     segments of quartz diorite enclosed by Sudbury Breccia.  In some instances,
     such as the Maclennan offset in Maclennan Township, the radial breccia zone
     did not fully develop and magma was injected into the  surrounding  country
     rocks for only a short  distance.  The  Maclennan  offset has an  irregular
     shape up to 900 m wide but  narrows at depth.  Discontinous  pods of quartz
     diorite occur within a zone of Sudbury  Breccia and have undergone  intense
     crushing, shearing and alteration (Grant and Bite, 1984).

     5.1.5 Sudbury Dike Swarm

     A series of  northwest-trending  olivine diabase (olivine  tholeiite) dikes
     known as the Sudbury dike swarm was emplaced about 1.24 Ga (Osmani,  1991).
     They are medium to coarse grained,  dip vertically and weather  recessively
     to a brown  colour.  The dikes are typically 15 m to 35 m wide and commonly
     follow, or occur in proximity to, northwest-striking faults and are readily
     apparent on aeromagnetic maps.

     5.1.6 Grenville Structural Province

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
June 15, 2004                                           John M. Siriunas, P.Eng.
<PAGE>
Report on the Wanapitei River (South) Property, Scadding Township        page 16
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------


     The boundary  between rocks of  Paleoproterozoic  and Archean age and those
     that have been affected by the Grenville  Orogeny  (CIRCA 1.1 Ga) is marked
     by the Grenville Front. The Front is a locus of faulting and mylonitization
     that  delineates  the limit of  penetrative  metamorphism  and  deformation
     related to the orogeny (Easton,  1992).  Rocks north of the Grenville Front
     become  increasingly  deformed  near  the  Front.  The  south  side,  I.E.,
     Grenville  Province  side  of the  Front,  comprises  a wide  (up to 30 km)
     tectonic zone consisting of deformed and  metamorphosed  rocks derived from
     Superior and Southern Province  protoliths.  For example,  the River Valley
     anorthositic  intrusion lies within this zone and  amphibolites  within the
     zone are believed to be  equivalent  to the  Nipissing  diabase  (Dressler,
     1979).  Further  to the south the  quartzo-feldspathic  orthogneisses  with
     granitic and monozonitic  plutons of the Central Gneiss Belt (1.8 Ga to 1.4
     Ga) predominate.

     5.1.7 Cenozoic Features

     Lake  Wanapitei  is believed to occupy an  astrobleme  created  about 37 Ma
     (Peredery and  Morrison,  1984).  Dressler  (1982)  summarizes  many of the
     features  and field  evidence  that support  this  hypothesis.  Macroscopic
     features such as shatter cones are abundant in parts of Maclennan, Scadding
     and northeastern Falconbridge Township (Dressler, 1987).

     The  Laurentide  ice sheet  covered the region  about  20,000 years bp with
     deglaciation  occurring  9,500 to 11,000 years bp. Ice flow ranged  between
     165(degree) and 195(degree) and only one till has been identified  (Tardif,
     2000).

5.2  PROPERTY GEOLOGY

     5.2.1 Introduction

     Geological mapping has been carried out over the property area and vicinity
     by Thomson (1961) and Dressler  (1982).  The region is also included in the
     compilation of Dressler  (1984).  Figure 9 presents the general  geology of
     the property area.

     5.2.2 Lithologies

     The property area is underlain by rocks of the Huronian  Supergroup.  These
     Huronian sediments are predominantly represented by steeply dipping arkoses
     and quartzites of the Mississagi Formation (Hough Lake Group).  Lithologies
     of the Quirke Lake Group including  conglomerates  of the Bruce  Formation,
     wackes and limestones of the Espanola  Formation and arkoses of the Serpent
     Formation  are  present  within a synform  in the  southern  portion of the
     property area.

     Gabbroic  rocks  (Nipissing  diabase)  may be present  in the  northeastern
     corner of the property.

     An olivine diabase dike of the Sudbury swarm bisects the property area.

     Sands  and  gravels   associated  with  the  Maclennan  Esker  may  provide
     overburden cover in the portions of the claim group.

     5.2.3 Structure

     Significant  fault systems have not been  recognized  on the property.  The
     north-northeast  -  south-southwest  trending  Coniston Fault passes to the
     west of the property  area.  The Sudbury dike that crosses the property may
     be coincident with a  west-northwest  trending fault that forms part of the
     Airport  Fault  system.  This system may in turn be part of the South Range
     shear zone, a major regional thrust system with displacements of 8 km to 19
     km (Easton and Drury, 2002).

     The  north  -  south  trending  Upper  Wanapitei  River  Fault  which  lies
     immediately to the east of the property area has a protracted deformational
     history  and marks a  significant  domain  boundary  for both  Archean  and
     Paleoproterozoic-age  rocks: to the east the Archean rocks are dominated by
     supracrustal  assemblages  and the Huronian  Supergroup is dominated by the

     Cobalt  Group while to the west of the fault the  Archean  rocks are mainly
     plutonic  and the lower  three  groups  of the  Huronian  are the  dominant
     Paleoproterozoic-age lithologies.

6.1  REGIONAL MINERAL OCCURRENCES

     6.1.1 Introduction

     A variety of metallic  mineral  deposits have been exploited in the Sudbury
     Mining Camp and the  surrounding  area. A number of these are  indicated on
     Figure 4 and are  described in brief below.  While the focus of this report
     is on copper - nickel and associated  platinum group metals (PGMs) and gold
     (+/- copper),  other  important  occurrences  are included as they may have
     relevance to the exploration potential of the Wanapitei River property.

     A number of industrial  mineral and dimension stone  occurrences  have also
     been mined in the region but will not be  discussed  in the context of this
     report.

     6.1.2 Sudbury Mining Camp

     Mining has been  ongoing in the Sudbury  area since the late 1800s.  At the
     end of 1999 there were fifteen (15) mines in operation in the camp; in 1998
     alone  the mines of the camp  produced  over  175,000 t of nickel  and over
     169,000 t of copper in addition to by-product  cobalt,  PGMs, gold, silver,
     selenium, tellurium, and sulphur compounds.

     The ores of the Sudbury camp are associated  with the basal portions of the
     SIC including  Footwall  Breccia,  Contact Sublayer and norites of the Main
     Mass.  Sulphide  minerals  can occur in massive  zones,  as stringers or as
     disseminations. The basal nature of occurrences, the presence of cobalt and
     PGMs,  the  absence  of lead  and  zinc,  the lack of  alteration,  and the
     presence of textures  suggesting the  co-existence  of a magmatic  sulphide
     liquid  with  a  partially  crystallized  silicate  magma,  all  contribute
     evidence to the magmatic origin of the ores (Naldrett, 1984). Occasionally,
     as at the Falconbridge and East Mines in the southeast part of the SIC, the
     sulphide mineralization can be controlled by faulting and brecciation along
     the contact between the SIC and the Huronian  Supergroup  (Stobie Formation
     of the Elliot Lake Group; Owen and Coats, 1984).

     Many  large ore bodies in the  Sudbury  camp are also  associated  with the
     Offset  dikes.  Quartz  dioritic  magmas were  injected  into the radial or

     concentric  breccia-filled  fractures  surrounding  the  margins of the SIC
     after the solidification of the Lower Zone of the SIC. Sulphides within the
     dikes are believed to have been entrained from the SIC.

     The  Vermillion  and  Errington  Mines  (Zn-Pb-Cu)  are located  within the
     central  part of the Sudbury  Structure  hosted by rocks of the  Whitewater
     Group.  They are believed to represent  deposits of  sedimentary-exhalative
     origin.

     6.1.2 Janes Township, Rastall Prospect

     It is thought that Nipissing  diabase presents a favourable  environment or
     medium for the formation of magmatic deposits (Lightfoot ET AL., 1987). The
     Jackie Rastall  prospect is located in Janes Township within the Chiniguchi
     River Intrusion.  The prospect was discovered in the late 1960s when it was
     evaluated for its copper and nickel  potential.  Mineralization is reported
     to be associated  with the lower contact of the  high-magnesium  gabbro and
     also locally  with a (Huronian)  sediment-gabbro  and/or  sulphide  breccia
     (Pacific  North West Capital  Corp.,  2000).  Recent  diamond  drilling has
     intersected mineralization over a strike length of about 375 m and down-dip
     from surface showings for 140 m.

     6.1.3 Dana Lake area, River Valley

     The presence of significant PGM  mineralization  was discovered in the Dana
     Lake area in 1998. The mineralization is hosted by magmatic breccias in the
     basal portion of the northeastern  and  southeastern  portions of the River
     Valley (anorthosite) Intrusion.  Most of the known mineralization occurs as
     disseminated  and  bleb  sulphides   (chalcopyrite   dominated)   within  a
     heterogeneous  rock package that is proximal to the country rocks or margin
     of the intrusion.  This heterogeneous rock package includes melanocratic to
     leucocratic  breccias and pegmatitic to  vari-textured  breccia  zones.  In
     October  2001  Pacific  North West Capital  Corp.  and their joint  venture
     partner,  Anglo American Platinum  Corporation  Limited,  reported they had
     outlined a resource of  12,700,000  t grading  1.46 g  Pt+Pd+Au/t;  copper,
     nickel and rhodium  credits are also present.  (Pacific  North West Capital
     Corp., 2001). Exploration work (Phase 5) continues on their property.

     Mustang  Minerals Corp. and their joint venture  partner,  Impala  Platinum
     Holdings   Limited,   also  continue  to  explore   similar  zones  of  PGM
     mineralization in the southeastern portion of the intrusion.

     6.1.4 Rathbun Lake Occurrence

     A small pod of massive sulphide mineralization is associated with fractured
     and  sheared  gabbro-norite  at the  base of the Lake  Wanapitei  Intrusion
     (Powell and Edgar,  1986).  The mineralized  zone is only 12 m to 14 m long
     and from 0.3 m to 0.6 m wide.  Alteration of the host rocks,  including the
     development of chlorite, sericite,  saussuritized plagioclase,  epidote and
     biotite,  and  the  presence  of  replacement  textures  suggest  that  the
     mineralized  zone was  formed  by  late-stage  hydrothermal  activity.  The
     hydrothermal  fluids were highly saline and likely  contained both magmatic
     and formational brines (Farrow and Watkinson, 1999).

     A grab sample of material from surface returned 10.2% Cu, 0.14% Ni, 2.22 oz
     Ag/ton,  0.02 oz  Au/ton,  0.056 oz Pt/ton  and 34.6 oz  Pd/ton  (Dressler,
     1982).

     6.1.5 Temagami Mine

     The Temagami  Mine had  produced $34 M worth of copper  before it closed in
     1972 (Cabri ET AL.,  1973).  It comprised pod and vein-type ore bodies with
     associated  pipe-like  alteration that Colvine (1974) stated was indicative
     of a volcanogenic  origin;  however,  the associated high nickel values and
     the lack of zinc could not be reconciled  with such a genesis.  The deposit
     is also the type-locale for temagamite  (Pd3HgTe3),  which  incidentally is
     also found at the Rathbun Lake occurrence.

     6.1.6 Scadding and Norstar Lake (Orostar) Mines

     Four zones of gold mineralization at the Scadding Mine in Scadding Township
     were hosted by tectonic breccias at the base of the Serpent quartzite where
     it overlies Espanola  limestones (Quirke Lake Group).  Gold,  chalcopyrite,
     pyrite,  pyrrhotite and arsenopyrite and intense chloritic  alteration were
     present  within  the  structurally   complex   stockworks.   Three  of  the
     mineralized zones were mined by open pit methods in 1984; a total of 24,000
     tons of ore grading  0.199 oz Au/ton was mined to produce 3,525 oz of gold.
     The fourth zone, the  Intermediate  Zone, was exploited from underground in
     1987.  A total of 115,724 tons of ore was  processed  and 15,769 oz of gold
     was recovered (0.156 oz Au/ton) from the Intermediate  Zone though reserves
     in 1986 had been  reported at 136,496 tons grading  0.206 oz Au/ton  (Manns
     and Ellingham,  1992).  Concentrates from the Scadding Mine were shipped to
     the Horne smelter in Rouyn-Noranda, QC for processing.

Report on the Wanapitei River (South) Property, Scadding Township        page 28
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------


     The  breccia  zones  that  hosted the ore were from 100 m to 300 m long and
     from 30 m to 50 m. The  gold-bearing  material was located  within the most
     highly  chloritized  portions of these breccia zones. Gates (1991) suggests
     that  intense  sodic  alteration  along the  Serpent - Espanola  Formations
     contact produced a dense, brittle rock that was easily fractured.

     While geophysical surveys were found to be useful for mapping purposes,  it
     was  prospecting  and humus  geochemistry  that provided the best tools for
     locating the zones of mineralization at the Scadding Mine.

     Gold and copper  mineralization was discovered at the Norstar Lake (Orostar
     or  Mount  Aetna)  Mine in  Davis  Township  in the  late  1890s.  Episodic
     underground  exploration  eventually  led to the  deposit  being  put  into
     production  from 1986 through 1987. A total of 449,056 kg of copper and 330
     kg of gold was produced  from 63,000 tons of ore grading 0.21 oz Au/ton and
     0.90% Cu. The  mineralization was hosted by brecciated and altered rocks of
     the Gowganda  Formation.  Clasts of Gowganda  Formation  were cemented by a
     matrix of quartz, carbonates, arsenopyrite,  chalcopyrite and pyrite. Zones
     of albitization  (sodic  alteration) are noted  throughout the area;  these
     zones exhibit a grey-buff-yellow-pink colouration and the presence of large
     laths  of  ankerite  (Gates,  1991).  Ore was  trucked  to the  mill at the
     Scadding Mine for processing.

     6.1.7 Geneva Lake Mine

     The Geneva Lake Mine is located  northwest of the Sudbury  Structure in the
     Archean-age  Benny  volcano-sedimentary  belt. The  stratabound  deposit is
     localized at a mafic-felsic  volcanic  contact and was interpreted as being
     volcanogenic in origin by Card and Innes (1981).  Between 1941 and 1944 the
     mine produced 4,717 t zinc and 1,633 t lead from 73,108 t of ore.

6.2  LOCAL MINERAL OCCURRENCES

     6.2.1 Introduction

     The following  paragraphs describe some of the known mineral occurrences in
     the immediate  vicinity of the Wanapitei River  property.  The locations of
     the occurrences are presented in Figures 9 and 10.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

     6.2.2 Alkin Gold Mine

     Gold-bearing   quartz  veins  trending  320(0)  are  found  within  sheared
     Nipissing Diabase at this locality;  the  mineralization  may be related to
     felsic phases of the gabbro  ("altered sodic dikes" of Fairbairn,  1939). A
     grab sample of blue-grey  vuggy quartz with chlorite and dusty pyrite taken
     from an old  muck  pile  returned  38.8  ppm  Au,  10 ppm As and 314 ppm Cr
     (Gates, 1991; sample 89-BIG-0016).

     6.2.3 Alwyn Porcupine

     Two  shafts  to  depths  of 40 ft.  and 186 ft.  were put  down to  explore
     mineralization  along the McLaren  Lake fault.  The fault cuts rocks of the
     Gowganda  Formation  that are  reportedly  intruded  by dikes of  Nipissing
     Diabase.  Conglomerates of the Gowganda Formation adjacent to the fault are
     highly  brecciated  and  fractured  and  can  contain  red  carbonates  and
     fine-grained  pyrite and chalcopyrite.  Diamond drilling in 1951 returned a
     best  result  of 0.085 oz  Au/ton  and  1.11% Cu over a true  width of 6'5"
     (Thomson, 1961).

     6.2.4 Bonanza Mine

     A large quartz vein was first  examined on this property in the late 1800s.
     The vein  which is 60 feet wide and has been  traced  for 1,800  feet along
     strike follows the contact of a Nipissing  diabase  intrusive and quartzite
     of the Mississagi  Formation (Hough Lake Group). The vein strikes at 140(0)
     and is near  vertical in attitude.  The vein  material,  which does contain
     some carbonate,  was examined in 1956 by Falconbridge  Nickel Mines Limited
     under option from J.J. Biloki as a possible  source of silica-rich  smelter
     flux.  Sampling at that time  reported a maximum  content of 0.04 oz Au/ton
     (Thomson,  1961).  Additional  exploration  work  was  carried  out  on the
     property by E. Blanchard between 1968 and 1971.

     6.2.5 Fielding

     This  property was explored in the late 1980s by Inco when the property was
     referred to as the McVittie Option.  Huronian sediments on the property are
     intruded   by   Nipissing   diabase   that  has  locally   brecciated   and
     hydrothermally altered the sediments.  Surface samples containing up to 2.3
     g Au/t area  found in an area that  exposes  the  contact  between  gabbro,
     Missassagi  Formation  arkoses and  limestones  of the  Espanola  Formation
     (Jackson and Berrer, 1989).

<PAGE>
Report on the Wanapitei River (South) Property, Scadding Township        page 30
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

     Additional  sampling in 1999 returned values of up to 3.8 g Au/t in an area
     to the southeast of the original mineralized discovery (Fielding, 2000).

     6.2.6 Johnston

     An occurrence in this area was worked off and on between 1923 and 1924 when
     a shaft was sunk to a depth of 50 feet.  In general only low tenors in gold
     are believed to have been  encountered  though reliable reports are lacking
     (Fielding, 1998).

     6.2.7 MAC-100A

     In November of 2001, Falconbridge Limited announced the intersection of six
     zones of copper  and  nickel  mineralization  in hole  MAC-100A,  part of a
     deep-drilling  program.  It is perhaps significant to note that only one of
     those reported zones of  mineralization  was described to be at the contact
     of the SIC while the  remaining  five zones  occurred  within the  footwall
     rocks.  The deepest  zone,  starting at a depth of 1656.85 m down the hole,
     returned 2.26% Ni, 17.49% Cu and 66.40 g PGM  (Pt+Pd+Au)/t  over a width of
     6.15 m.

     The  drilling  program  is taking  place in an area about 2 km south of the
     Nickel Rim Mine, another past producer in the area. The Nickel Rim produced
     6,218,000 lbs of copper and 14,068,600 lbs of nickel from 1,276,633 tons of
     ore between 1952 and 1958  (Thomson,  1961).  Falconbridge  reports that an
     inferred  resource of 1.6 Mt grading  1.6% Ni, 10.1% Cu and 10.2 g PGM/t is
     present at the mine.

     6.2.8 Maclennan Mine

     Copper and nickel  mineralization at the Maclennan Mine is believed to have
     been  associated  with the  Maclennan  offset.  The mine was  developed and
     exploited  by  Inco  between  1965  and  1972;  however,   little  specific
     information  regarding  the deposit  appears to exist in the public  domain
     (Dressler, 1982; M. Cosec, pers. comm., 2002)

     6.2.9 Midas - Kayjon

     Narrow quartz veins containing galena, chalcopyrite and pyrite are found in
     the vicinity of the contact  between the Gowganda  Formation  and Nipissing
     Diabase at this  occurrence.  The largest  vein exposed is reported to have
     been 75 ft. long and 2 1/2 ft. wide (Thomson,  1961).  Diamond  drilling in
     1960  intersected a 0.15 m wide vein which  assayed 11.3 oz Au/ton,  8.7 oz

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

     Ag/ton and 1.95% Cu. Further  drilling in 1967 identified five  mineralized
     zones or veins; maximum assays reported were 0.65 oz Au/ton, 0.36 oz Ag/ton
     and 0.07% Cu, all over widths of 1.5 m (Dressler, 1982).

     6.2.10 Potvin

     A shallow dipping quartz vein within  Nipissing  Diabase  contains  visible
     gold.  The vein is  reported  to be from 4 ft. to 7 ft. wide and is shallow
     dipping.  A. Potvin is  believed  to have  worked the showing  with a small
     gravity  concentrator during the 1930s. No reports of actual production are
     available.

     Exploration  of the  occurrence  and its  vicinity  was carried out by R.J.
     Graham between 1990 and 1995 (Graham,  1995). This work located  additional
     showings of sulphide-bearing quartz stockworks that returned up to 0.810 oz
     Au/ton in grab samples.

     6.2.11 Red Rock Mine

     A sill of Nipissing  Diabase intrudes  greywacke and arkose of the Gowganda
     Formation at the Red Rock Mine site.  Gold-bearing quartz - carbonate veins
     and masses  with  pyrite  are found over a strike  length of 350 m within a
     structural zone the trends 030(0) in the gabbro. The veining is oriented at
     270(0) to 360(0) within this structural zone. While "attractive  specimens"
     of gold-bearing quartz reportedly found their way to the streets of Sudbury
     in 1922,  Gates (1991)  comments  that gold is more likely to be associated
     with Ca-Fe-Mg carbonates (plus minor values in Co and Ni).

     Surface  exploration  (test pits and stripping) was first undertaken by the
     Golden Nugget  Exploration and Development  Company during 1922 - 1923. The
     McMillan Development Company sank a shaft to a depth of 160 ft. and carried
     out 1,140 ft. of  lateral  development  soon  thereafter.  Mid  Continental
     Goldfields Limited  subsequently  identified other quartz - carbonate veins
     containing  visible  gold in sheared  portions of the  Nipissing - Gowganda
     contact  elsewhere on the property  (Thomson,  1961).  A recent grab sample
     from the site (87-BIG-0018) returned 18,800 ppb Au.

     6.2.12 Scadding Mine

     The Scadding Mine,  located about 2 km to the southwest of the property and
     an important  producer of gold, has been described  above in Section 6.1.7.
     Exploration of the property is currently being carried out by JML Resources
     Ltd.

     6.2.13 Sheppard

     Gold was  discovered  on the  property  owned by Thomas  Sheppard  in 1980.
     Trenching  and diamond  drilling  was carried out between  1981 and 1983 by
     Cowaching  Mines Ltd. and the Mac Issac Mining and Tunnelling Co. Values of
     up to 0.575 oz Au/ton were reported from surface samples.  A 500 ton sample
     of  material  that was removed  and  stockpiled  is reported to have had an
     average grade of 0.16 oz Au/ton (Esson,  1983). The gold  mineralization on
     the property is reported to be structurally  controlled within fractures in
     quartzites of the Mississagi Formation.

     6.2.14 Sheppard Mine

     Gold was  discovered  at this location in 1888. A short adit was driven and
     some ore was  treated  between  1889 and 1890.  Mineralization  consists of
     narrow quartz veins within greywackes of the Mississagi Formation. Vein No.
     1  reportedly  assayed  5.43 oz Au/ton  and 0.23 oz Ag/ton  (Gordon ET AL.,
     1979).

     6.2.15 Skead Mine

     Falconbridge   Nickel  Mines  Limited  dewatered  and  sampled  underground
     workings at this  property in 1946;  it is not known when the  pre-existing
     165-foot shaft and drifts were originally developed.

     The  gold-bearing  zone  strikes  east - west and dips  25(0) N.  This zone
     follows the contact  between  argillites  and  quartzites of the Mississagi
     Formation but is confined to the  quartzites.  The vein material  comprises
     altered quartzite, quartz, carbonates and minor sulphides.

     Material  from  a  surface  dump  totaling  488  tons  was  shipped  to the
     Falconbridge  smelter  -  this  material  averaged  0.088  oz  Au/ton.  The
     underground  sampling  identified  three ore shoots:  the West shoot with a
     length of 60 feet and a width of 4 feet averaged  0.390 oz Au/ton and 0.20%
     Cu;  the  Central  shoot  with a length  of 50 feet and a width of 6.1 feet

     averaged  0.270 oz Au/ton and 0.62% Cu; and the East shoot with a length of
     60 feet and a width of 5.8 feet averaged 0.198 oz Au/ton (Thomson, 1961).

     6.2.16 Wanapitei Basin

     Gold-bearing  quartz veins were found to be present in shears and fractures
     within  monzonite  that  intrudes  Serpent  Formation   sediments  at  this
     occurrence  (Gordon ET AL., 1979). The "monzonite" is likely a felsic phase
     of the Nipissing  diabase.  Three ore shoots  outlined by diamond  drilling
     total 42,000 tons of ore grading 0.37 oz Au/ton.

                                 7 CONCLUSIONS

The following  conclusions,  based on the material presented within this report,
are made regarding  Armitage Mining Corp.'s Wanapitei River property in Scadding
Township:

1)   The  property  area  is  underlain  by  Paleoproterozoic-age  rocks  of the
     Southern  Structural  Province of the Canadian Shield.  Huronian Supergroup
     sediments comprising  quartzites and arkoses of the Mississagi Formation of
     the Hough Lake Group. Limestones (Espanola Formation), conglomerates (Bruce
     Formation)  and arkoses  (Serpent  Formation)  of the Quirke Lake Group are
     also present;

2)   The sedimentary  rocks in the area are intruded by sills of  differentiated
     gabbroic rocks  commonly  referred to as Nipissing  diabase.  Gabbro may be
     present in the northeast corner of the property;

3)   Only minor  faulting  and/or  shearing has been  recognized  to date in the
     property area;

4)   Five  styles of  mineralization  that occur in the region  have  particular
     importance for exploration on the Wanapitei  River  property.  These styles
     are:

     a)   quartz - carbonate  veining at or near the upper  contact of Nipissing
          diabase sills,  especially in sheared portions,  have the potential to
          host gold mineralization.  In proximity to calcareous sediments (E.G.,
          Espanola  Formation) the potential for skarn-like  mineralization also
          exists; and
     b)   quartz - carbonate flooding of altered and brecciated  portions of the
          Quirke  Lake Group are known to host  copper and gold  mineralization.
          These breccias are observed to occur at the contact of the Serpent and
          Espanola    Formations.     Alteration    includes    carbonatization,
          chloritization and albitization;
     c)   massive and disseminated  sulphides within quartz diorite Offset dikes
          and associated  Sudbury breccia that form important  copper and nickel
          deposits in the Sudbury area;
     d)   structurally    controlled   and   remobilized   copper   and   nickel
          mineralization at the base of the Sudbury Igneous Complex and adjacent
          footwall rocks; and
     e)   sulphide  accumulations at or near the base of Nipissing diabase sills
          have the potential to host copper, nickel and PGMs;

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

5)   The  principal  area of  mineralization  in the property area is a prospect
     referred to herein as the  Fielding  occurrence.  The claims that  comprise
     this property are located  adjacent to the west side of the Wanapitei River
     property. Various grab samples from this occurrence have reported up to 3.8
     g Au/t. Native gold and gold-bearing sulphide  mineralization is present to
     the north of the property area at the Potvin occurrence;


6)   Overall  there   appears  to  be  the   potential  for  locating   economic
     mineralization,  especially  gold, on the property.  The targets of highest
     priority are skarn-like zones  associated with altered  limestones in close
     proximity to  Nipissing  diabase,  as observed at the Fielding  occurrence.
     Quartz veining within brecciated  portions of the Mississagi  Formation and
     potential  mineralization  along the contacts of the Nipissing  diabase are
     other targets of particular interest.

                               8 RECOMMENDATIONS

The following  recommendations  are made to further  explore the Wanapitei River
property in Scadding Township:

1)   Preliminary  prospecting  will provide critical  information  regarding the
     preferred orientation of the grid given the varying attitude of the various
     possible  exploration  targets.  Follow-up  mechanical  trenching of target
     zones should be carried out to supply as much  critical  information  at an
     early stage of exploration;

2)   An exploration  grid should be established to cover the property to provide
     spatial control for further exploration activities.  Approximately 20 km of
     line  should be cut to  complete  a grid over the  property.  Nominal  line
     spacing  should  be 100 m with  stations  at a  20-m  spacing.  Geophysical
     surveying, including magnetometer and VLF-EM surveys, should be carried out
     over the grid.  The results of these  surveys will 1) assist in the mapping
     of the property; 2) attempt to recognize dikes and mafic intrusives,  where
     present; 3) assist in mapping possible zones of alteration; and 4) identify
     the existence of possible off-setting structures;

3)   Geological  mapping and sampling  should be carried out over the grid in an
     attempt  to locate  zones of  mineralization  and the  distribution  of the
     various lithologies  present.  Whole rock analyses,  trace element analyses
     and, possibly,  mineralogical  studies should accompany all sampling on the
     property;

4)   Geochemical  surveying,  specifically  humus  sampling,  has proven to be a
     useful tool for identifying zones of gold mineralization in this region. It
     is therefore  recommended to carry out a program of humus sampling over the
     entire grid. The samples should be analyzed by  multi-element  instrumental
     neutron  activation  methods that will provide data on pathfinder  elements
     for both gold and nickel (+/-PGM) mineralization;

5)   Once all the  geotechnical  information  is compiled,  a program of diamond
     drilling  should be  undertaken  to  provide  an aspect of  geological  and
     geochemical information in the third dimension.

A proposed three-phase budget for the recommended program of exploration work is
as follows:

PHASE I
