INTRODUCTION

Power stripping, trenching and sampling, was performed on Kirkland Lake minerals Inc. property at Pacaud Twp., Larder Lake Mining Division, Ontario. The purpose of this exploration program was to locate and expose any gold bearing structures associated with the Pacaud Fault system Striking north-west through the property, also to locate the lamprophyre dyke mapped on OGS map No. 1957-4, which is included in this report..

PROPERTY STATUS

This property, comprised of 5 unpatented contiguous mining claims totaling 13 claim units located in Pacaud Twp., Larder lake Mining Division, Ontario, are registered in the name of Kirkland Lake Minerals Inc. (Client No. 303817). These claims are summarized as follows:

CLAIM NUMBER12418321199531124294830089093009042

NUMBER OF UNITS43213

DUE DATEOctober 25, 2003February 28, 2004February 10, 2005September 12, 2005September 12, 2005

LOCATION ACCESS

This property is located in the northeast corner of Pacaud Township. The property situates in Concession 5 and 6, Lots 2 and 3; only 2 kilometers east of Boston Creek Village. Access is via highway 564 to Boston Creek Village, then 2 km east on a well traveled access road, which runs through the property.

WORK HISTORY

The northeast quadrant of Pacaud Township has seen much mining exploration activity in the past. During the first quarter of the last century, work centered on the discovery of gold, two of the properties, Miller Independence and Barry Hollinger Gold Mines Ltd., actually produced gold bullion. Three other mines, Amity, Patterson and Trethewey Ossian Mines Ltd., successfully exploited copper bearing zones in the country rock contacting with the Round Lake batholiths. Most recently (l990's), Atapa Minerals Ltd., just southeast of Kirkland Lake Minerals Inc. Property along the Pacaud fault, discovered gold.

GEOLOGY

Largely, the Kirkland Lake Minerals Inc. Property is covered by overburden. Rock exposure is mainly in the southwestern and northeastern parts of the property. The main structural feature is the northwest trending Pacaud fault in the centre of the claim group. Keewatin lavas are exposed and cut by a Serpentinite Hornblendite sill intrusion northeast of the fault. Southwest of the fault, altered tuffaceous sediments cut by Algoman syentites and a lamprophyre dyke; contact the Round Lake Batholithic granites in the southwest corner of the property.

WORK PERFORMED

Crowley Ground Water Ltd. was commissioned by Kirkland Lake Minerals. Inc, to perform this exploration program of power stripping, blasting and sampling. The first phase of the program was at area A to determine if bedrock could be exposed by excavation, on or near the Pacaud fault. The next stage of work was at area B, where mineralized outcrops (trench #1 and trench # 2) were power stripped with an excavator, drilled with an electric hammer drill, and then blasted. 20 grab samples were taken at area B and were assayed by Swastika Laboratories Ltd. for gold, using conventional methods. I have enclosed the assay certificate along with this report.

Log of Work Continued:

September 16- Backhoe work and drilling at area B begins at trench 1: David Crowley,Alec Dale, Richard Charbonneau, Martyn Harrington

September 17- Backhoe work, drilling and blasting at trench 1: David Crowley, AlecDale, Richard Charbonneau.

September 18- Backhoe work and drilling at trench 2: David Crowley, Alec Dale,Richard Charbonneau.

September 19- Final blast at trench 2, sampling of both trench l and 2, demobilization ofmen and equipment. : David Crowley, Alec Dale, Richard Charbonneau,Martyn Harrington.

RESULTS

Initially at area A, it was thought that bedrock could be exposed across the Pacaud fault. ODM Map 1957-4 shows exposed bedrock in the immediate area, however, attempts to reach bedrock were all in vain. Attention was then turned to area B, where mineralized (l -507o pyrite) syenite, cut by lamprophyre is exposed at trench l and mineralized acid tuff (I 07o pyrite) with quartz veining at trench 2. Best results were as follows: From trench l, sample # 623 (mineralized syenite) returned .03 g/ton Au. From trench 2, sample #613 and #619 (acid volcanic) both valued at .02 g/ton Au.

CONCLUSION-RECOMMENDATIONS

Mineralized trenches l and 2 at area B failed to return any economics gold values. Future work should include cutting a grid along the Pacaud fault with 100 m line spacing, followed by mag and or max min survey to determine if any structurally controlled gold zones exist. Any worthwhile targets should then be diamond drilled as economic gold have been discovered elsewhere in the area.
