Brief Introduction:
Presenter
Bio Graduated from UBC with a B.Sc major in Geology in 1990 and have been
involved in the mineral exploration industry since then. Worked with
Companies such as Keewatin engineering, Hunter Dickinson, Taseko
Mines and most recently with QuestEx Gold & Copper (formerly known as
Colorado Resources Ltd) and am currently the CEO and Director of
Roughrider Exploration Limited
Throughout the years have held various properties throughout BC and the
Yukon in my private company Cazador Resources Ltd.

The area of the claims is underlain by
Nicola Group (Upper Triassic) volcanic
and intrusive rock, the Summers Creek
batholith (Jurassic) and the Princeton
Group (Tertiary) sediments.
The Nicola rocks occupy the central
part of the claims and consist of
andesite and dacite intruded by syenite
and monzonite. In the eastern part of
the claims these Triassic rocks are
intruded by granodiorite of Jurassic Rats
age (Summers Creek batholith). Minfile
Geology To the southeast and west the Nicola Bonacci
rocks are down faulted along northwest Minfile
and north-south trending normal faults.
Sandstones belonging to the Princeton Lucky
Group cover the Nicola Group in this Minfile
area. Of economic interest is a large
area of hydrothermally altered Triassic
volcanic rocks outcropping as gossans Lucky
along the Princeton-Osprey Lake road. Strike
Minfile
Alteration minerals comprise K-
feldspar, epidote, sericite, quartz, pyrite,
hematite and chalcopyrite. The
alteration affects a large area, much of
it overburden covered. Induced
polarization surveys indicate sulphides
over 1.5 square km area. Sponsored in part by:

Rats- Mineralization exposed in numerous trenches consists primarily of malachite, chalcopyrite, pyrite and magnetite, with
minor bornite and chalcocite (?). The sulphides are confined largely to a 150-metre wide zone trending west-northwest for 500
metres. This zone is comprised of two parallel subsidiary zones. The southern zone is 450 metres long and 50 metres wide. It
contains the strongest copper mineralization, occurring as disseminations, stringers and stockworks. Locally, chalcopyrite and
malachite form up to 10 per cent of the rock by volume. The northern zone is 500 metres long and 100 metres wide, and
generally contains less 1 per cent chalcopyrite and malachite, mostly as disseminations. The mineralization broadly parallels the
folding of the basalts, and therefore may predate it.
Bonnacci- A pyritic zone, 350 metres long and up to 180 metres wide is developed in quartz monzodiorite, monzonite and diorite
in the outer part of a zoned intrusion, 1.2 kilometres wide. This stock intrudes andesitic to basaltic volcanics of the Upper
Triassic Nicola Group. The monzodiorite exhibits clay, epidote and chlorite alteration. Mineralization consists of pink quartz-
carbonate veinlets carrying chalcopyrite and minor pyrite and galena. The west end of the pyritic zone was tested by two adits
Minfile excavated in 1942. Kennco Explorations (Western) Ltd. and Amax Exploration completed geological, geophysical and soil
geochemical surveys over the showing in 1959 and 1969. Additional geological mapping and petrographic studies were
Occurrence conducted by Quintana Minerals Corporation in 1977 and by P. Peto in 1989.
s Lucky - Stronger mineralization, containing 0.2 to 0.5 per cent copper, occurs in a zone widening northerly from 75 metres to 250
metres, over a strike length of 400 metres. At this point the zone and peripheral zones of propylitic alteration are inferred to be
displaced for at least 400 metres by a right-lateral strike-slip fault striking west-southwest (Assessment Report 6292). One
percussion hole, located 70 metres south of the inferred strike-slip fault, analyzed 0.42 per cent copper and 0.205 gram per tonne
gold over 24.4 metres (Assessment Reports 18863, Figure 3; 20113, page 2, hole RC87-8). A second hole drilled 190 metres
north-northwest of hole RC87-8, analyzed 0.21 per cent copper and 0.262 gram per tonne gold over 32.0 metres (hole RC87-1).
Surface sampling yielded copper values of up to 0.822 per cent and gold values of up to 0.470 gram per tonne (Assessment
Report 16265, page 4). Gold values were almost invariably associated with high copper values but many high copper values had
low accessory gold. The amount of pyrite in the rock appears to have no bearing on the gold content.
Lucky Strike - Mineralization consists of chalcopyrite and pyrite, together with quartz and epidote, filling fractures in the
pegmatite and in the volcanics near the pegmatite. Extensive malachite staining is developed along such mineralized fractures.
Traces of copper mineralization also occurs in narrow fractures cutting the Nicola Group rocks. A 2-metre chip sample assayed
0.46 gram per tonne gold and 0.823 per cent copper (Assessment Report 16265, sample #TL92H0159R). This showing was
explored in 1927 and 1928 by G. Broderick and T. Hume. Three adits, one shaft and a number of trenches were excavated over a

distance of 300 metres.
Prospector: Adam Travis
Property Location: Princeton, B.C. In the main Lucky showing a
total of 29 Percussion, RC and
Diamond drill holes were
completed in the showing areas
however only the results of 87-1,
87-2 and 87-8 have been
reported. The three holes that
were reported had significant
copper results. Cominco’s IP
work was never completed over
the showing, and the percussion
holes were short (>100m) deep.
History of In 2007 two copper anomalies
(Anomaly “A” and “B”) were
Project discovered however the historic
IP surveys do not cover the area.
Anomaly A has never been drill
tested, but Anomaly B has been
tested by short percussion drill
holes. On the western edge of
Anomaly B drill hole 90-13 ran
1,920 ppm Cu and 58 ppb Au
over 3.05 m, drill hole 90-15
averaged 560 ppm Cu and 45
ppb Au over 12.25 m and drill
hole 90-1 averaged 433 ppm Cu,

Property Location: Princeton, B.C. First time in more than 40 years that all mineral showing
have been consolidated into one property.
Bonacci/Lucky and Lucky Strike occur along northerly
trending structures over 2km of strike and have returned
significant copper and gold in old poorly documented
drillholes.
Outcrop is limited throughout the property and modern
geophysical programs and drilling programs are warranted
across all showings.
Rats/Castle showing has returned highly anomalous copper
values in shallow drilling of a small portion of large mag
Key anomaly.
