Morris Block, Elk Hills Oil & Gas Property

The Company's Evaluation of Contingent Resources and other Petroleum Information for the Morris Block located in the Elk Hills Region Twp. 4S, Rge. 24E of Montana, USA dated effective September 1, 2012, prepared September 18, 2012 by B.L. Whelan, P.Geo (the "Morris Report") is currently under review by the regulators and the Company has received initial deficiency comments. Accordingly, readers are advised NOT to rely on the oil resource estimates and related analyses contained in the Morris Report until such information is supported by a new or amended NI 51-101 report.

The Company is preparing its response to the oil and gas regulatory review and will issue a futher clarification news release about its Morris Block Property in due course.

Preissac Property

Press Release/Material Change Report: On November 2, 2012, the Company issued a press release and on November 5, 2012, the Company filed a corresponding Material Change Report, pursuant to which it disclosed that the "… Preissac Property has a historical resource containing 123,830 tons of mineralization grading 0.65 per cent nickel". This statement did not comply with NI 43-101 in that the Company did not disclose the source and date of such statement, the relevance and reliability of the historical estimate, the key assumptions, parameters and methods used to prepare the historical estimate, an explanation of the differences between the category of resource stated and current accepted categories of mineral resources, and disclosure on what work needs to be done to upgrade or verify the historical estimate as current mineral reserves or mineral resources, all as required by section 2.4 of NI 43-101. In addition, the cautionary language that was used in the press release was not NI 43-101 compliant in that it did not state that the qualified person had not done sufficient work to classify the historical estimate as current mineral resources and that the Company is not treating the historical resource as a current resource.

After further review of the source information, the Company is unable to re-state the above estimate in compliance with NI 43-101 requirements for disclosure of a historical estimate; consequently, the Company retracts the referenced statement of a historical resource estimate in its entirety. Readers should not rely on the retracted statement.

Website: The Company's website previously disclosed that the property "…has a body containing 123,830 tons of ore grading 0.65% Ni". This statement did not designate the estimate as historical. The use of the term "ore", which normally implies a mineral reserve, and disclosure in the form of a current estimate was potentially misleading, and restricted by NI 43-101. The Company clarifies that it has no valid historical or current resource or reserve estimates at its Preissac property. Consequently, the Company retracts the referenced statement in its entirety and has removed the statement from its website. Readers should not rely on the retracted statement.

The Company does not intend to move forward with this property in the foreseeable future, if ever.

Michael Dufresne, M.Sc, P.Geo is the Qualified Person (as defined by NI 43-101) who has reviewed and approved the technical information in this news release as such relates to the Preissac Property.

ON BEHALF OF THE BOARD

Wolf Wiese, President & CEO
