| (1) | Mineração Duas Barras Ltda. ("MDB") obtained a 4-year renewal of its environmental license of operations (" Licença de Operação" ), and it can apply for continuous renewals of such license every four years. On September 8, 2015, MDB's initial renewal application was voted favorably by the COPAM committee, which is made up of representatives from different segments of the local community; the tally was ten votes in favor of our renewal and one abstention. This public vote was held in Montes Claros, state of Minas Gerais, the nearest large city to MDB's mine. We believe that obtaining an environmental license for any mining company in Brazil is a substantial achievement, as the process is a long and detailed, and many studies are required. |
| (2) | We completed all contractual cash payments for the purchase of our 50% stake in RST, a Brazilian company with 10 mining concessions and 12 other minerals rights, all for diamond and gold. These RST mining concessions are located in the same general area as our MDB diamond and gold recovery plant. Prior to our involvement, the last time RST shares had been acquired by a publicly-traded company occurred in June 2008, when a Canadian issuer contractually agreed to pay US$10.5 million dollars for 100% of RST. Subsequently, and as part of such contractual agreement, this Canadian buyer paid US$2 million to the sellers, but was unable to pay the remainder due to the global financial crisis affecting its situation. RST was not explored by it or other owners since then and its areas have remained essentially untouched. |
| (3) | We completed preliminary drilling of an area within one of the RST mining concessions (the "RST Initial Area"). It is a dry location, amenable to a potential program of extraction by open surface excavation and removal and transport of the thick white gravel to our diamond and gold processing and recovery plant. |
| (4) | Beginning in Q3 2015, and continuing after the end of the quarter, we built a dirt road to connect our large diamond and gold recovery plant to the RST Initial Area a few miles away, where we intend to conduct operations for the next several years. Work is currently ongoing on the placement of cement tubes under certain parts of such road, in a few specific areas, to allow for proper drainage during rainfall. This part of Brazil is dry for most of the year, except for the normal rainy period between December and March. Besides the road drainage system, workers are also depositing layers of pebbles and rocks to the road surface to make it sturdier for the expected heavy truckload traffic. |
| (1) | In November 2015, we filed the necessary documents for further permitting of a 24,708-acre gold area in the state of Amazonas, Brazil. In this filling, we have added the mineral copper, also identifiable in the area. In prior fillings, we have referred to this area as "Borba". It is a mineral right located in the Apui area of Amazonas, a region of the Amazon now well known for gold deposits. |
| (2) | In November 2015, we filed the necessary documents for further permitting of the second mineral right that belongs to MDB, and which encompasses an area of 982 acres. This mineral right has not been explored before and holds promise for future mining for diamonds and gold. Our technical team encountered in this area a type of gravel locally called "grupiária", which is known for having a lower density concentration of diamonds but yielding much larger stones diamonds when they do occur. |
