&#147;forward-looking statements&#148; within the meaning of Section&nbsp;21E of the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934, including statements concerning the Company&#146;s plans at its Afton Project and other mineral properties, which involve
known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors which may cause the actual results, performance or achievements of the Company, or industry results, to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed
or implied by such forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are subject to a variety of risks and uncertainties which could cause actual events or results to differ from those reflected in the forward-looking statements, including,
without limitation, risks and uncertainties relating to the interpretation of drill results and the estimation of mineral resources and reserves, the geology, grade and continuity of mineral deposits, the possibility that future exploration,
development or mining results will not be consistent with the Company&#146;s expectations, metal recoveries, accidents, equipment breakdowns, title matters, labor disputes or other unanticipated difficulties with or interruptions in production, the
potential for delays in exploration or development activities or the completion of feasibility studies, the inherent uncertainty of production and cost estimates and the potential for unexpected costs and expenses, commodity price fluctuations,
currency fluctuations, failure to obtain adequate financing on a timely basis and other risks and uncertainties, including those described under &#147;Item 4. Narrative Description of the Company&#146;s Business &#151; Risk Factors&#148; in the
Annual Information Form and in the Management&#146;s Discussion and Analysis, included herewith as Exhibits 1 and 3, respectively. Should one or more of these risks and uncertainties materialize, or should underlying assumptions prove incorrect,
actual results may vary materially from those described in forward-looking statements. Accordingly, readers are advised not to place undue reliance on forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements include statements regarding the
expectations and beliefs of management, the assumed long-term price of gold and exchange rates, the estimation of mineral reserves and resources, the realization of mineral reserve estimates in future expected production, anticipated future capital
and operating costs, and the potential of the Company&#146;s properties and expectations of growth. Except as required under applicable securities legislation, the Company undertakes no obligation to publicly update or revise forward-looking
statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18px;margin-bottom:0px" ALIGN="center"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B>RESERVE AND RESOURCE ESTIMATES </B></FONT></P> <P

Instrument 43-101 (&#147;NI 43-101&#148;) and the Canadian Institute of Mining and Metallurgy Classification System. These standards differ significantly from the requirements of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission

<FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">the term &#147;resource&#148; does not equate to the term &#147;reserves&#148;. The definitions of &#147;proven&#148; and &#147;probable&#148; reserves used
in NI 43-101 differ from the definitions in SEC Industry Guide 7. Under U.S. standards, mineralization may not be classified as a &#147;reserve&#148; unless the determination has been made that the mineralization could be economically and legally
produced or extracted at the time the reserve determination is made. The SEC&#146;s disclosure standards normally do not permit the inclusion of information concerning &#147;measured&#148;, &#147;indicated&#148;, or &#147;inferred&#148; mineral
resources in documents filed with the SEC, unless such information is required to be disclosed by the laws of the Company&#146;s principal jurisdiction or of a jurisdiction in which its securities are traded. U.S. investors should also understand
that &#147;inferred mineral resources&#148; have a great amount of uncertainty as to their existence and great uncertainty as to their economic and legal feasibility. It cannot be assumed that all or any part of an &#147;inferred mineral
resource&#148; will ever be upgraded to a higher category. Under Canadian rules, estimated &#147;inferred mineral resources&#148; may not form the basis of feasibility or pre-feasibility studies except in rare cases. Readers are cautioned not to
assume that all or any part of an &#147;inferred mineral resource&#148; exists or is economically or legally mineable. Disclosure of &#147;contained ounces&#148; is permitted disclosure under Canadian regulations; however, the SEC normally only
permits issuers to report &#147;resources&#148; as in-place tonnage and grade. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18px;margin-bottom:0px" ALIGN="center"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B>CURRENCY </B></FONT></P> <P

financial statements for the year ended December&nbsp;31, 2005 and the accompanying Management Discussion and Analysis and the Afton Report and Scoping Study referenced in this Annual Information Form include certain &#147;forward- looking
information&#148; within the meaning of the Ontario Securities Act or &#147;forward-looking statements&#148; within the meaning of Section&nbsp;21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 of the United States. Forward-looking statements are subject
to a variety of risks and uncertainties which could cause actual events or results to differ from those reflected in the forward-looking statements, including, without limitation, risks and uncertainties relating to the interpretation of drill
results and the estimation of mineral resources and reserves, the geology, grade and continuity of mineral deposits, the possibility that future exploration, development or mining results will not be consistent with the Company&#146;s expectations,
metal recoveries, accidents, equipment breakdowns, title matters and surface access, labour disputes or other unanticipated difficulties with or interruptions in production, the potential for delays in exploration or development activities or the
completion of feasibility studies, the inherent uncertainty of production and cost estimates and the potential for unexpected costs and expenses, commodity price fluctuations, currency fluctuations, failure to obtain adequate financing on a timely
basis and other risks and uncertainties, including those described under the heading &#147;Risk Factors&#148; in this Annual Information Form. Forward-looking information is in addition based on various assumptions including, without limitation, the
expectations and beliefs of management, the assumed long term price of copper and gold, that the Feasibility Study will confirm that a technically viable and economic operation exists, that the Company will receive required permits and access to
surface rights, that the Company can access financing, appropriate equipment and sufficient labour and that the political environment within British Columbia and Canada will continue to support the development of environmentally safe mining projects
so that the Company will be able to commence the development of the Afton Project within the timetable to be established in a positive feasibility study. Should one or more of these risks and uncertainties materialize, or should underlying
assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may vary materially from those described in forward-looking statements. Accordingly, readers are advised not to place undue reliance on forward-looking statements. </FONT></P> <P

upon inferred resources. As required under National Instrument&nbsp;43-101, the reader is cautioned that these resources are considered too speculative geologically to have the economic considerations applied to them that would enable them to be
categorized as mineral reserves, and there is no certainty that any of the results predicted in the Scoping Study will be realized. </B>The inferred resources considered in the Scoping Study were estimated according to the requirements of National
Instrument 43-101 under the supervision of Behre Dolbear; who are independent of New Gold. Details of these estimates, a description of the calculation methods employed and a description of New Gold&#146;s assaying and analytical techniques and
methodology are set out in the text of the Scoping Study, which may be found in New Gold&#146;s filings at <U>www.sedar.com</U>. The estimates in the Scoping Study are based on the assumptions and methods, and are subject to the limitations and
qualifications, described in the Scoping Study. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The Afton Report and the Scoping Study are intended to be read as a whole and sections
should not be read or relied upon out of context. The quality of the information, conclusions and estimates contained in the Afton Report and the Scoping Study are consistent with the intentions of the Afton Report and the Scoping Study, as well as
the circumstances and constraints under which the Afton Report and the Scoping Study were each prepared which are also set out therein. Readers are encouraged to review the entire Afton Report and the Scoping Study, which may be found in New

Afton Report and the Scoping Study differ significantly from the requirements of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the &#147;SEC&#148;) and the resource information reported may not be comparable to similar information reported
by United States companies. The term &#147;resources&#148; does not equate to &#147;reserves&#148; and normally may not be included in documents filed with the SEC. &#147;Resources&#148; are sometimes referred to as &#147;mineralization&#148; or
&#147;mineral deposits.&#148; While the terms &#147;mineral resource&#148;, &#147;measured mineral resource&#148;, &#147;indicated mineral resource&#148; and &#147;inferred mineral resource&#148; are recognized and required by Canadian regulations,
they are not defined terms under standards in the United States and normally are not permitted to be used in reports and registration statements filed with the SEC. As such, information contained in this Annual Information Form concerning
descriptions of mineralization and resources under Canadian standards may not be comparable to similar information made public by U.S. companies in SEC filings. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman"

three years, the Company&#146;s principal focus has been the exploration and development of the Afton Project, located approximately 10&nbsp;kms (6&nbsp;miles)&nbsp;west of Kamloops, British Columbia near the Trans Canada Highway. The Afton Project
includes two exhausted open pits where government reports indicate that the previous occupier of the property, Afton Mines Ltd., mined and milled 22&nbsp;million tonnes of ore and produced in excess of 450,000 ounces of Au and 450&nbsp;million
pounds of Cu from 1977 to 1988. The Afton Project is the Company&#146;s only material property. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The Company originally entered into an
option agreement dated November&nbsp;10, 1999 (the &#147;Afton Option Agreement&#148;) to acquire the mineral claims that comprise the Afton Project (the &#147;Afton Claims&#148;) 50% from Westridge Enterprises Ltd. (&#147;Westridge&#148;), a
non-reporting British Columbia company wholly owned by John H. Kruzick, a former director and former President and Chairman of the Company, and 50% from Indo-Gold Development Ltd. (&#147;Indo-Gold&#148;), a non-reporting British Columbia company
owned by John Ball, a geologist. The consideration payable for the acquisition of the 100% interest in the Afton Claims was 2,000,000 shares payable in stages over a 6-year period, a $6,500,000 work commitment, expenditures to be made in stages not
to exceed a 9-year period and a retained 10% net profit royalty in favour of the optionors, Westridge and Indo-Gold. An amendment dated June&nbsp;6, 2002, removed the requirement in the Afton Option Agreement that the Afton Claims be put into
production by December&nbsp;31, 2009. The Company completed its requirements under the Afton Option Agreement to acquire the 100% interest in the Afton Claims on August&nbsp;22, 2005 by making its final payment of 200,000 shares to the optionors.
Each of the principal Afton Claims, in which the Afton Project deposit is located, are in good standing under the <I>Mineral Tenure Act</I> R.S.B.C. 1996, c.&nbsp;292 until between 2011 and 2016. </FONT></P>

addressed the mineral resource, a number of possible mining methods, mineral processing, and permitting for the Afton Project. The study provided an estimate of capital and operating costs related to the potential development of an underground bulk

some of the Afton Lands and the former operator of the Afton Mine. Under the Access Agreement, the Company has the right to enter upon the portion of the Afton Lands held in fee simple by Afton Operating Corporation and to conduct exploration until
June&nbsp;30, 2007. The Access Agreement requires the Company to compensate Afton Operating Corporation for any disruption or damage to any surface facilities, to reclaim areas disturbed by the Company&#146;s operations, to post bond against any
failure to reclaim, to be responsible for any hazardous substances introduced to the lands and to insure and indemnify Afton Operating Corporation against liabilities arising from any activities of the Company in and about the lands<I>. </I>The

providing underground working access to conduct in-fill drilling, which previously was conducted from surface, as well as confirmatory sampling of the resource by cross-cutting into the mineralized zone. The underground definition diamond drilling
is designed to provide improved knowledge of the existing resource by increasing the drilling density and, in conjunction with the completion of a feasibility study, will determine whether the resource can be upgraded to the reserve category. The
sampling program to be taken from the cross-cut into the mineral zone will be of assistance in providing improved grade continuity data required for the mine design and metallurgical information for refinement of mill and process design. </FONT></P>

FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The exploration and development of natural resources involve a high degree of risk and few properties which are explored are ultimately developed into producing properties. Although the mineral resource figures set
out herein have been carefully prepared and reviewed or verified by an independent mining expert, these amounts are estimates only and no assurance can be given that an identified mineral resource will ever qualify as a commercially mineable (or
viable) ore body which can be legally and economically exploited. Also, there has been a significant amount of drilling on the Afton Project since the resource figures set out herein were calculated. Accordingly the mineral resource estimates may be
subject to change. The Company intends to recalculate the resource estimates in the upcoming Feasibility Study as described under the heading &#147;Exploration and Development&#148; below. In addition, the grade of mineralization ultimately mined
may differ from that indicated by drilling results and such differences could be material. Production can be affected by such factors as permitting regulations and requirements, weather, environmental factors, unforeseen technical difficulties,
unusual or unexpected geological formations and work interruptions. Short-term factors, such as the need for orderly development of deposits or the processing of new or different grades, may have an adverse effect on mining operations and on the
results of operations. There can be no assurance that minerals recovered in small scale laboratory tests will be duplicated in large scale tests under on-site conditions or in production scale operations. Material changes in reserves or resources,
grades, dilution estimates or recovery rates may affect the economic viability of projects. The estimated reserves and resources described in this Annual Information Form should not be interpreted as assurances of mine life or of the profitability
of future operations. The long term profitability of the Company&#146;s operations will be in part directly related to the cost and success of its exploration programs, which may be affected by a number of factors. </FONT></P> <P

the Paleozoic, Mesozoic and Cenozoic eras outcrop near Kamloops, but the unit with the most economic significance is the Upper Triassic Nicola Volcanic Group and its sub-volcanic dioritic intrusion, the Iron Mask Batholith. The Afton Project mineral
zone occurs at the north-western extremity of the Iron Mask Batholith, immediately south of a deep graben structure that developed in post-Tertiary time as part of the Coast Mountains orogeny, and which was the focus of vigorous sedimentation and
volcanism in Tertiary times. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The Iron Mask Batholith is a lenticular, composite sub-alkaline to alkaline intrusion, approximately
18&nbsp;km in length, striking in a north-westerly direction. Petrology of the Iron Mask Batholith ranges from picrite and serpentinite to latite porphyry. Outcrops of individual petrographic units are generally elongate in a north-westerly
direction parallel to the axis of the pluton. The Iron Mask Batholith represents the core of an ocean fissure volcano, which built up an island flanked by shallow-water sediments including reef knolls and which during its later stages intruded its
own volcanic pile. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The Afton Project mineral zone occupies the north-western tip of a zone of abundant magnetite veining developed along
the longitudinal axis of the Iron Mask Batholith. An extensive pyrite halo lies south and west of the mineral zone, overlapping slightly onto the southwest sector of the mineral zone. Cu mineralization at the Afton Project is contained in the early
Jurassic-aged Cherry Creek Unit, a sub-unit of the Iron Mask Batholith. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The Afton Project lies within a heavily altered syenitic
micro-diorite. The upper 200&nbsp;m of the deposit (that was mined in the open-pit) is a supergene zone containing native Cu, chalcocite and cuprite. Contact with the hypogene zone occurs at the extreme western end of supergene zone at about
400&nbsp;m (above sea level) elevation where bornite and chalcopyrite, with or without minor chalcocite and native Cu, occur in what New Gold geologists believe to be a southwest-trending structurally controlled zone. </FONT></P> <P

quarter of 2006. Although there are no apparent issues which might materially affect the mining of the resources, the Feasibility Study will address the mining, metallurgical, infrastructure and environmental aspects of the Afton Project in detail.

another of these companies due to the financial position of the company making the assignment. In accordance with the laws of British Columbia, the directors of the Company are required to act honestly, in good faith and in the best interests of the
Company. In determining whether or not the Company will participate in a particular program and the interest therein to be acquired by it, the directors will primarily consider the degree of risk to which the Company may be exposed and its financial
position at that time. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The directors and officers of the Company are aware of the existence of laws governing the accountability of

FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">New Gold Inc., which changed its name from DRC Resources Corporation on June&nbsp;1, 2005 (the &#147;Company&#148;), is in the process of exploring and developing mineral prospects in British Columbia, Canada. Its
principal project, the Afton copper-gold project, has previously been subject to exploration, an advanced scoping study and has not yet been confirmed to have economically viable copper/gold reserves. The Company&#146;s intention is to proceed to
complete a feasibility study in 2006 to confirm whether economical reserves exist. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; margin-left:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The underlying value of the Company&#146;s mineral
claims is dependent upon the existence and economic recovery of mineral reserves, and the ability of the Company to raise financing to complete the development of and operation of the project. In addition, the investments may be subject to changes
in government relations related to mining activities, economic instability and access rights disruption. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; margin-left:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The Company believes it has
adequate funds available to meet its corporate and administrative obligations plus its funding requirement to complete the feasibility study for the Afton copper/gold project, administration while having surplus funds available for exploration.
Management will have to pursue additional financing upon the completion of a positive feasibility to finance the projects construction. There can be no assurance it will be able to raise sufficient funds when these funds are required. <I>(See Note

costs incurred on those properties may be deferred and subsequently carried at cost prior to a Company having obtained the necessary data to complete a positive feasibility study, including the preparation of a cash flow projection in respect to the

the flow-through shares must be recorded as a liability if a premium is paid by investors. This liability is then recorded as income when the flow-through share proceeds are renounced to investors. </FONT></P> <P

relative to the closing market prices of the Company&#146;s shares on the dates that the directors set the flow-through share issue prices. Accordingly, an aggregate dollar premium of $975,100 was obtained and under U.S. GAAP would have been
recorded as income from the sale of the tax benefit upon its renunciation to the investors. Consistent with its approach under Canadian GAAP, the Company would record the future tax and income effects of renunciations effective at the first balance
sheet date subsequent to completion on the related flow through financing. For cash flow reporting purposes the Company would disclose the substance of the transaction, which is to report the proceeds of these sales as operating cash inflows.

thereto and compares the financial results of 2005 with those of the two preceding years. The reader is encouraged to review the Statements in conjunction with this document. This report is dated March&nbsp;24, 2006 and the Company&#146;s public

STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">New Gold Inc. (&#147;New Gold&#148; or the &#147;Company&#148;) is a Canadian based resource company engaged in the exploration and development of base and precious
metals properties in British Columbia Canada. The current principle area of focus is the New Afton copper/gold project (&#147;Project&#148;) located in Kamloops, British Columbia. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT
FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The Company continues to move the development of the Project beyond the February 2004 Advanced Scoping Study (&#147;Scoping Study&#148;) by conducting an underground exploration program, which commenced in late 2004,
and completing an extensive in-fill drilling program. The underground program commenced in late 2004 and by the end of 2005 the Company had completed 2,200 metres of drifting including cross-cutting into the mineralized zones. In-fill drilling
commenced in February 2005 and 24,864 metres, from 66 holes, was completed during the year. As at the December&nbsp;31, 2005 the Company had virtually completed the program. The Company has announced the results of 9 sections of the in-fill program
and the results can be viewed on the company website <B>(www.newgoldinc.com)</B> or on SEDAR. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">In December 2005, New Gold announced the commencement of a
feasibility study (&#147;FS&#148;). The FS will be carried out by a team including, and coordinated by, Hatch Ltd. (&#147;Hatch&#148;) who will be responsible for the processing and engineering components of the study. Mining method and reserves
will be the responsibility of Australian Mining Consultants Pty Ltd. (&#147;AMC&#148;), and Roscoe Postle Associates Inc. (&#147;RPA&#148;) will complete the geology and resource sections. Environmental services and permitting will be the
responsibility of Rescan Environmental Services Ltd. (&#147;Rescan&#148;). In addition, BGC Engineering Inc. (&#147;BGC&#148;) will maintain responsibility </FONT>

<FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">for tailings disposal analysis study. With the exception of AMC (who are based in Australia) all of these engineering companies are based in Vancouver,
British Columbia, Canada. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The scope of the FS includes an updated resource estimation (which will incorporate the 2005 underground in-fill drilling
results), mining method selection, reserves and mine production scheduling, process plant design, tailings deposition, all infrastructure requirements and the preparation of the project economic analysis. Once complete, the FS will replace the prior
Scoping Study completed on the Project (in 2003, and updated in 2004), and will establish the technical and economical potential of developing a new underground mine at the New Afton Project. </FONT></P> <P
STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">During the third quarter of 2005, the Company completed the final payment under the two Afton option agreements by issuing 200,000 common shares while the Company had
previously completed the expenditure commitment. As a result; the Company has a 100% interest in the mineral claims covering the Company&#146;s current mineral resources at Afton. The Optionor&#146;s, one of whom was a Director and had a one-half
interest in the agreement, maintain a 10% net profits royalty which the Company holds an option to purchase for $2 million on or before December&nbsp;1, 2010. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman"
SIZE="2"><B><I>Afton and Ajax Exploration Properties </I></B></FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The Company commenced in 2005 a review of surface exploration potential designed to look at
the entire Afton and Ajax property claim blocks. The Company also contracted for an airborne survey in the fourth quarter of 2005 which included a high resolution magnetometer, electro-magnetics and radio metrics. The Ajax property is connected via
a 10km road to the Afton mineral claims. The Company intends to prioritize the most prospective drilling targets as part of an expanded regional exploration program planned to commence in early 2006. </FONT></P> <P
STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The near-term key performance drivers for the Company are focused predominantly on the ultimate development of the Project, and which will require the successful
completion of the FS, completion of the permitting process, securing surface rights and acquiring the necessary financing to be able to commence development of the Project. The capital requirements of the Project are under increasing cost pressures
as many other mining companies have seen increases in their capital and operating costs due to the current economic environment and will therefore form a critical component of the overall project economics. To a lesser extent, the Company sees the
growth of the resource base as a priority and has allocated funds in 2006 to explore in and around the existing resource at the Project. On a more macro scale, the price of copper and gold continue at relatively high levels and is the single most
important factors in the future project economics and will have a direct impact on the Company&#146;s ability to raise funds towards the Project&#146;s ultimate development. </FONT></P>

preceding three fiscal years ended December&nbsp;31, 2005, has primarily focused on the exploration activities on the Project. The level of activity dramatically increased in late 2004 with the change from surface focused exploration to a more
expensive underground based program. As a result of these activities, the Company expended $16.6 million on the Project in 2005, as compared to $2.2 million in 2004 and $1.1 million in 2003. In 2005, tunneling and related costs totaled $12.3 million
as compared to $1.5 million in 2004 and $nil in 2003 due to the ramp up of this activity in late 2004. Drilling and assaying increased in 2005 to $2.5 million versus $0.1 million in 2004 and $1.1 million in 2003 as a result of drilling more metres
in 2005 from underground at a higher cost per metre. In 2004 the Company did not conduct any exploration drilling as it was preparing for the underground exploration program while in 2003 a significant program was conducted in support of the Scoping
Study. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B><I>Corporate </I></B></FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The Company incurred a loss
of $3.4 million or $0.24 per share in 2005, a loss of $1.2 million or $0.09 per share in 2004 and $1.2 million or $0.13 per share in 2003. The expenditure level in 2005 has increased significantly from that of the prior two years primarily as a
result of the growth of the organization and its management team with its related costs and increased corporate activity marketing the Company. The compensation cost for staffing has increased to $1.7 million in 2005 as compared to $0.3 million and
$0.1 million in the respective 2004 and 2003 years. Travel and promotional costs have shown a similar increase to $0.6 million in 2005 as compared to $0.2 million in 2004 and $0.1 million in 2003. In 2005 the Company recorded a tax benefit of $0.1
million as compared to a cost of $0.1 million in 2004 and $0.8 million in 2003. </FONT></P>

of the options. In addition, the calculated cost of the stock option compensation cost issued in 2005 was higher at a weighted average of $2.00 per option as compared to $1.34 per option in 2004 principally as a result of the increase in the
Company&#146;s share price. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B>S<SMALL>ELECTED</SMALL> Q<SMALL>UARTERLY</SMALL> I<SMALL>NFORMATION</SMALL> </B></FONT></P> <P

FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">During the fourth quarter of 2005, the Company invested approximately $4.8 million on its mineral properties as compared to $1.7 million in the comparative quarter in 2004 for an increase of $3.1 million. The increase
is primarily the result of spending $3.0 million on tunneling and decline development and $0.9 million on an in-fill drilling program and related assaying costs. In the comparative quarter, the Company spent $1.3 million on tunneling as it had just
starting commencing the underground tunnelling program while no drilling had yet commenced. The other significant difference between the comparative quarters related to road construction in 2004 for site and pit access totalling $0.2 million.

comparative quarter of 2004. In the fourth quarter of 2005 the Company incurred an increase of $0.5 million in wages and benefits costs due to the increase in the management team as well as increases related to higher travel and promotional costs of
$0.2 million due to increased activity in marketing the Company. These increases were partially offset by $0.6 million in lower stock based compensation charges due to fewer stock options vesting during the fourth quarter of 2005 than in the
comparative quarter in 2004. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Interest income was $0.1 million for both the current 2005 quarter and the comparable quarter in 2004. </FONT></P> <P

financings by issuing 1,330,000 flow-through common shares at a prices ranging from $7.00 to $8.00 per share for gross proceeds of $10 million (net proceeds of $9.2 million). Proceeds from these private placements are planned to be used to expand
and accelerate the Company&#146;s exploration efforts at the Project and at Ajax. As at December&nbsp;31, 2005 the Company had completed the expenditures on the first two financings ($6 million) and has until the end of 2006 to expend qualifying
amounts for the third financing. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The Company plans to complete its FS in 2006 at an estimated cost of $5.3 million plus undertake a significant

subject to the requirements in the <I>MTA, </I>including permitting, notice and compensation requirements, use, enter and occupy the surface of its mineral claim for the purpose of exploration, development and production and to carry out other
activities related to the business of mining. This right may be exercised despite the fact that the land may be Crown land or fee simple land which is privately owned. A mineral title holder&#146;s right to use the surface of their claims is,
however, also subject to, among other things, the Minister&#146;s power under section&nbsp;17 of the <I>MTA</I> to restrict the use of surface where he/she considers that the surface area should be used for purposes other than mining. Also, under

activities of the Company are subject to environmental regulations promulgated by government agencies from time to time. Environmental legislation generally provides for restrictions and prohibitions on spills, releases or emissions of various
substances produced in association with certain mining industry operations, such as seepage from tailings disposal areas, which would result in environmental pollution. A breach of such legislation may result in imposition of fines and penalties. In
addition, certain types of operations require the submission and approval of environmental impact assessments. Environmental legislation is evolving in a manner which means stricter standards, and enforcement, fines and penalties for non-compliance
are more stringent. Environmental assessments of proposed projects carry a heightened degree of responsibility for companies and directors, officers and employees. The cost of compliance with changes in governmental regulations has a potential to
reduce the profitability of operations. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The current exploration activities of the Company, including any development activities and commencement of

Inspector of Mines under Section 10 of the <I>Mines Act</I>, R.S.B.C. 1996, c. 293 allowing development of an underground access to allow an exploration diamond drilling program to be carried out. The Company has commenced the permitting required to
develop and operate a mine in parallel with the completion of the Feasibility Study. This process requires consultation with stakeholders who may comment on the Company&#146;s plans. The Chief Inspector may take concerns into account in the granting
of our development and operating permit. Companies engaged in exploration activities and in the development and operation of mines and related facilities generally experience increased costs, and delays in production and other schedules as a result
of the need to comply with applicable laws, regulations and permits. There can be no assurance that all permits which the Company may require for exploration, construction of mining facilities and conduct of mining operations will be obtainable on
reasonable terms or on a timely basis, or that such laws and regulations would not have an adverse effect on any mining project that the Company may undertake. The Company believes it is in substantial compliance with all material laws and
