STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Certain of the statements made and information contained in this Annual Report on Form 40-F of New Gold Inc. (the &#147;Company&#148;) may contain
&#147;forward-looking statements&#148; within the meaning of Section&nbsp;21E of the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934. 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
&#147;Narrative Description of the 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. Forward-looking statements are 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 Company will receive required permits and access to surface rights, that the
Company can access financing, appropriate equipment and sufficient labor 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 New Afton Project within the timetable established in the Feasibility Study (as defined in the Annual Information Form). 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. 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:24px;margin-bottom:0px"

incorporated by reference in this Annual Report have been prepared in accordance with Canadian National 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 (&#147;SEC&#148;). Accordingly, information concerning descriptions of mineralization, reserves and resources contained in this Annual Report may not be

<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:24px;margin-bottom:0px" ALIGN="center"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B>CURRENCY </B></FONT></P> <P

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

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 New Afton Project within the timetable established in the Feasibility Study. Should one or more of these risks and

(collectively, the &#147;Bands&#148;). Discussions with the Bands commenced in February, 2006 with the Company meeting with Band members to introduce the Company and the Project. After a number of meetings, information exchanges and discussions, the
Bands and the Company signed Letters of Intent in September 2006 which provide for an exchange of information, educational and economic development initiatives and cultural projects, long term funding by the Company to support the Bands&#146;
contribution to the Project development and the creation of a committee to ensure continued dialogue and monitoring of the Letters of Intent. The committee, named the &#147;New Afton First Nations Committee&#148;, is composed of three members from
each of the Bands and the Company. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">On January&nbsp;12, 2007 the Company submitted an application (the &#147;MPA&#148;) for a permit (the

Development Review Committee (the &#147;Committee&#148;) which is a regional, multi-agency committee. During the mandated 30-day period for review and consultation, the Company held a public meeting and met with the Bands. Discussions with the Bands
continue. After the end of the 30-day review period, the Committee has 30 days to prepare a Recommendation Report to the Chief Inspector of Mines for British Columbia for a permit decision. The Company has been advised by the Committee that it is in
the process of preparing the Recommendation Report. As a part of the permitting process the Government of British Columbia (the &#147;Government&#148;) has a duty to consult with the Bands regarding the permit application. The Company has been
advised by the Government that these consultations have commenced. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">In addition to the Mine Permit, a number of permits, consents and

into the interior of British Columbia following the Fraser and Cariboo gold rushes. The Iron Mask property, staked in 1896, was the first in the Kamloops district. A 100 ft shaft was sunk on the Pothook deposit in 1898. Mining was carried out from
the turn of the century through until 1927 at several gold, copper, and silver mines including the Pothook, Iron King, Copper King, and Iron Mask. The Afton property claims were staked over the Pothook workings in 1949 by Axel Bergland. This was
followed by sporadic, and largely unsuccessful, exploration work by a number of parties through the 1950&#146;s, and 60&#146;s. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Chester
Millar acquired the property in the mid-1960&#146;s and formed a private company called Afton Mines Ltd. to carry out exploration work. In 1970, Afton Mines Ltd. obtained a drill intersection of 170 ft of 0.4% Cu from what ultimately became the
Afton deposit. For the next three years over 150,000 ft of drilling was carried out by a number of operators. Duvall Corporation and Quintana Minerals took options on the property in 1970 but dropped them in 1971. They were followed in 1972 by Canex
Placer. Also in 1972, Teck and Iso Mines Ltd. purchased an equity interest in Afton Mines. Teck and Iso bought Canex Placer&#146;s interest, for $4 Million in 1973 and initiated engineering and metallurgical studies. A production decision was taken
in October 1975 with production commencing at the Afton open pit mine in late 1977. At the start of production the reserves were 34&nbsp;million tons grading 1% Cu, 0.016 oz/T Au, and 0.12 oz/T Ag (30.8 M tonnes grading 1% Cu, 0.58 g/t Au, 4.2 g/t
Ag). Mining took place on the property at the Afton, Crescent, Pothook and Ajax pits. The mill closed in 1991, reopened again in 1994, closing finally in 1997. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT

resources were estimated by Qualified Person (under National Instrument 43-101) David Rennie of Scott Wilson RPA. The measured and indicated resource which was used as the basis for estimating the reserve was released on September&nbsp;21, 2006.
This estimate was made by ordinary kriging, and used the information from drilling completed at the project since 2000. This included 90 surface holes, totalling 42,450 m, drilled during the period 2000 to 2003, and 65 underground holes, totalling
25,805 m, completed from the exploration decline in 2005. In estimating the resource, the following metal prices were used<B>&#151;</B>Copper (Cu) US$1.20/lb; Gold (Au) US$450/oz; and Silver (Ag) US$5.25/oz. </FONT></P> <P
STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Mineralization, in the measured and indicated categories, occurs over a length of approximately 1000m, to a depth of approximately 800 m below surface,
with the bulk of it contained within the Main Zone trending southwest, and which averages approximately 100m in width and 350m in height. In places, the width and height of mineralization can reach in excess of, respectively, 150m and 500m. Smaller
amounts of mineralization are present in parallel lenses (&#147;Hanging Wall Lense<B>s</B>&#148;) to the south of the Hanging Wall Fault. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman"
SIZE="2">This resource estimate has been constrained within mineralogical, and geological boundaries. Mineralization occurs within a structural corridor outlined by the well-defined Hanging Wall Fault (to the south), and the less well-defined
Footwall Fault (to the north). In places the Hanging Wall Fault truncates the mineralization. The boundaries of the mineralization are generally clearly defined between the higher grades of the resource and distinctly lower grades of the surrounding
rocks. This lower grade enveloping mineralization was not included within the resource estimate, as it was considered unlikely that it would become economic at any currently reasonable metal price assumptions. Three zones of mineralization were
noted: (a)&nbsp;hypogene (primary mineralization), with chalcopyrite and lesser bornite being the dominant Cu-bearing minerals; (b)&nbsp;mesogene, where chalcocite is the dominant Cu-bearing mineral with lesser chalcopyrite; and (c)&nbsp;supergene,
where native Cu, and minor chalcocite, is present. Hypogene comprises approximately 52% of the total resource tonnage, mesogene 39%, and supergene 9%. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P>

FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Reserves were estimated by Qualified Person (under National Instrument 43-101) Mike Thomas, MAusIMM (CP) of AMC, and utilized the measured and indicated resource model described above. The starting point for
estimating the reserve was an analysis of the distribution of mineralization within the resource model (excluding the C Zone), which AMC broke down into the following components &#150; East Block, West Block, and Pit Protection Pillar in the Main
Zone, and the Hanging Wall Lenses. To this breakdown, AMC applied knowledge gained from geotechnical data, in addition to geological interpretations of faults and other structures. In estimating the reserves, the following metal prices were
used&#151;Copper (Cu) US$1.45/lb; Gold (Au) US$475/oz. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">As the Hanging Wall Lenses are lower grade, isolated from the Main Zone and would
require separate underground infrastructure, they were not considered in the Feasibility Study. The Main Zone was split into the east and west blocks by an area of lower grade mineralization that was not included in the reserve. A decision was made
to leave a pillar under the west area of the pit (Pit Protection Pillar), as the mineralization was slightly lower grade than the bulk of the main zone and, because of its higher elevation, could not easily be recovered within the same block cave
panel as the East Block &#150; this pillar was not included in the reserve. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">AMC determined that the Main Zone mineralization could be
mined as three cave areas, Block 1 (B1) and Block 2 (B2), separated by a low-grade pillar would have the same cave base, whilst Block 3 (B3) would have its base at a lower elevation. </FONT></P> <P
STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">To enable a single cut-off parameter to be used when selecting the economic parts of the resource to be mined, AMC estimated the theoretical value
(Value) received for concentrate produced from each tonne of resource, assuming that the concentrate is sold at the mine gate. All costs and losses incurred in the off-site transportation and processing of concentrate being the responsibility of the
buyer. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The block caving method requires the orebody to be undercut enabling the ore to collapse and fragment (cave) into underlying
drawpoints where it is extracted. The shape and size of the area to be undercut (the footprint) was determined by comparing a nominated cost of establishing each drawpoint (CDN$300,000) with the total recoverable value of the overlying column of
ore, after deducting mining, processing and all other site costs. The footprint was designed to encompass those drawpoints with a positive net value and, where necessary, a number of sub-economic drawpoints to ensure that the undercut area was large
enough to cave, (determined by geotechnical investigations as being an area with a minimum span in any direction of approximately 95m). </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">As
a result of establishing the most suitable block cave footprints, some areas of remnant mineralization remain beneath the cave outlines, and were, therefore, not included in the reserve. </FONT></P> <P
STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">To determine the heights of the caved ore columns, AMC used two separate simulation programs (Cave-Sim, and PC-BC). These programs model the progressive

development projects, estimates of mineral resources and mineral reserves and cash operating costs are, to a large extent, based upon the interpretation of geological data obtained from drill holes and other sampling techniques, feasibility studies
which derive estimates of capital costs and cash operating costs based upon anticipated tonnage and grades of ore to be mined and processed, the configuration of the ore body, expected recovery rates of copper and gold, estimated operating costs,
anticipated climatic conditions and other factors. As a result, it is possible that actual capital costs, cash operating costs and economic returns will differ significantly from those estimated for a project prior to production. It is not unusual
in new mining operations to experience unexpected problems during the start-up phase, and delays often can occur in the commencement of production. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman"

expectations of inflation, currency exchange fluctuations, interest rates, global or regional consumptive patterns, speculative activities and increased production due to new extraction developments and improved extraction and production methods.
The effect of these factors on the price of metals, and therefore the economic viability of any of the Company&#146;s exploration projects, cannot accurately be predicted. The Company does not presently have a metals hedging policy nor has it
conducted any metals hedging in the past. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B><I>Title To Some Of the Company&#146;s Mineral Properties May Be Challenged Or Defective </I></B></FONT></P>

<FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Although the mineral resource and reserve figures set out herein have been carefully prepared and reviewed or verified by independent mining experts, 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. 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 the Project. 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

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>

impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amounts of the related asset may not be recoverable. Where estimates of future net cash flows are available and the total estimated future cash flows on an undiscounted
basis are less than the carrying amount of the asset, an impairment loss is recognized and assets are written down to fair value which is normally the discounted value of future cash flows. Where estimates of future net cash flows are not available,
management assesses whether the carrying value can be recovered by considering alternative methods of determining fair value. When it is determined that a mineral property is impaired it is written down to its estimated fair value. </FONT></P> <P

other events and circumstances from non-owner sources. It includes items that would normally not be included in net earnings, such as the effective portion of changes in fair values of cash flow hedging instruments. Section&nbsp;3251,

taken in a tax return. The new standard will require several new disclosures in annual financial statements, including: (a)&nbsp;the income statement classification of income tax-related interest and penalties and (b)&nbsp;a reconciliation of the
total amount of unrecognized tax benefits. As at December&nbsp;31, 2006, the Company has not yet determined the impact that this interpretation will have on the financial statements. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT

resource company engaged in the exploration and development of base and precious metals properties. The current principle area of focus is the New Afton copper/gold project (&#147;Project&#148;) located approximately 10 kilometres west of Kamloops,
British Columbia. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">During 2006, the Company continued to progress its efforts towards completion of the feasibility study (&#147;FS&#148;) on the Project
while also continuing with its exploration efforts. In the comparative year in 2005, the primary focus was directed towards the underground exploration decline development as well as completing an in-fill drilling program on the Project resource.
The Project feasibility study results are expected to be released during the first quarter of 2007. The scope of the study 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 establish the technical and economical
potential for potentially developing a new underground mine at the Project. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P>

Barclays&#146; efforts will initially focus on determining the level of debt which may be supported by the Project as well as completing an independent technical review and assessing the extent of metal price protection which might be required to
secure a possible financing. Barclays has not made a commitment to finance the Project and will not be able to determine whether to do so until it has received the results of its independent technical study. </FONT></P> <P

preceding three fiscal years ended December&nbsp;31, 2006, has shifted from an exploration based focus in 2004 and 2005 towards a development focus in 2006. The level of activity has correspondingly increased from 2004 through to 2006 as a result of
commencing, in late 2004, the development of an underground decline which was completed in late 2005, and in-fill drilling the resource from this decline access and then progressing on to the feasibility study which commenced in December 2005 and
continued throughout 2006. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">As a result of these activities, the Company expended $16.5 million on the Project in 2006, as compared to $14.2 million in
2005 and $2.2 million in 2004. In 2006, the Company spent $6.3 million on the feasibility study, $6.1 million on underground exploration, including support services for the underground exploration and $2.3 million for tunneling costs, expended in
2005 but paid in 2006. In 2005, tunneling and related costs, including support services, totaled $10.6 million and drilling and assaying totaling $2.0 million. In 2004 the Company did not conduct any exploration drilling as it was preparing for the
underground exploration program by spending approximately $1.3 million on the commencement of the underground tunneling. </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 $3.5 million or $0.15 per share in 2006, a loss of $2.9 million or $0.20 per share in 2005 and a loss of $1.2
million or $0.09 per share in 2004. The expenditure levels in 2006 and 2005 have increased significantly from those in 2004 primarily as a result of the shift in emphasis from exploration to development and the attendant growth in organization
including a larger management group and increased corporate activity. Wages, benefits and stock-based compensation costs related to corporate staffing has increased to $4.4 million in 2006 as compared to $2.5 million and $0.9 million in the
respective 2005 and 2004 years. Stock based compensation, included in these amounts, totaled $2.5 million in 2006 as compared to $0.8 million in 2005 and $0.9 million in 2004. An additional $0.7 million has been capitalized to mineral properties in
2006, the first year that any material amounts have been capitalized. The increase in stock-based compensation costs in 2006 was the result of having issued more options which vested in 2006 plus incurring higher per option costs due to the
increasing value of the Company&#146;s underlying shares. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Travel and promotional costs have shown a similar increase to $0.7 million in 2006 as compared
to $0.6 million in 2005 and $0.2 million in 2004 commensurate with increases in staffing. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Professional and regulatory fees have increased in 2006 to $0.9
million as compared to $0.3 million and $0.2 million in the respective periods in 2005 and 2004 in part due to higher audit and audit related costs, including fees related to the Company&#146;s restatement of its 2005 annual audited financial
statements and its 2006 unaudited second quarter financial statements in 2006, </FONT>

results differing from expected development results, changes in metal companies&#146; valuations or the departure of key employees. Failure to obtain such additional financing could result in delay or indefinite postponement of further exploration

rates of copper and gold, estimated operating costs, anticipated climatic conditions and other factors. As a result, it is possible that actual capital costs, cash operating costs and economic returns will differ significantly from those estimated

STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT 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. 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 resources 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 STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Substantial expenditures are required to
establish resources through drilling, to develop processes to extract the resources and, in the case of new properties, to develop the extraction and processing facilities and infrastructure at any site chosen for extraction. Although substantial

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:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P>

was carried out by the Company&#146;s Chief Executive Officer (&#147;CEO&#148;) and Chief Financial Officer (&#147;CFO&#148;) of the effectiveness of the Company&#146;s disclosure controls and procedures. That evaluation was updated in connection
with the preparation of the Restated Financial Statements referred to above. Based on the updated evaluation, the Company&#146;s CEO and CFO concluded that the disclosure controls and procedures were not wholly effective as of December&nbsp;31, 2005
to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports that it files or submits under securities legislation. In view of the restatement of the Financial Statements described above, the CEO and the CFO have concluded that a
material weakness existed in the Company&#146;s disclosure controls and procedures as of December&nbsp;31, 2005. As a result, the Company now requires all senior financial personnel to attend professional development training on current and new
developments in regulatory and accounting issues in Canada and the United States in order to improve the monitoring of financial regulations. In addition, the Company has retained new auditors with a view to engaging a chartered accounting firm with
the extensive depth and experience in financial reporting matters in Canada and the United States which management believes is necessary to reflect the Company&#146;s growth and development. In 2006, the Company hired a Controller and a Senior
Accountant to provide further support in financial reporting matters and a General Counsel to advise management in respect of the legal aspects of disclosure controls and procedures. The CEO and CFO have concluded that with these enhancements the
Company&#146;s disclosure controls and procedures are sufficiently effective to ensure material information will be accumulated and communicated to senior management in sufficient time for senior management to make decisions regarding the
Company&#146;s disclosure record as required by securities legislation. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer evaluated the

operation of these disclosure controls and procedures were effective as at December&nbsp;31, 2006 to provide reasonable assurance that material information relating to the Company would be made known. </FONT></P> <P

&#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 Risk Factors Relating to the Company&#146;s Business in the Company&#146;s Annual Information Form and in each management discussion and analysis. 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 by the 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. The Company does not
intend to and assumes no obligations to up-date forward-looking statements and information. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P>
