Forward  Looking  Statements  

This document contains "forward-looking information" within the meaning of applicable Canadian securities legislation and United Stated federal securities laws. Forward-looking information includes, but is not limited to, information with respect to future exploration and development plans, the adequacy of Golden Birch's financial resources, business plans and strategy and other events or conditions that may occur in the future. Generally, forward-looking information can be identified by the use of forward- looking terminology such as "plans", "expects", or "does not expect", "is expected", "budget", "scheduled", "estimates", "forecasts", "intends", "anticipates", or "does not anticipate", or "believes" or variations of such words and phrases or state that certain actions, events or results "may", "could", "would", "might", or "will be taken", "occur", or "be achieved". Forward- looking information is subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause the actual results, level of activity, performance or achievements of Golden Birch to be materially different from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking information, including risks associated with the exploration, development and mining industry such as economic factors as they effect exploration, future commodity prices, obtaining financing, market conditions, changes in interest rates, actual results of current exploration activities, government regulation, political or economic developments, environmental risks, insurance risks, capital expenditures, operating or technical difficulties in connection with development activities, personnel relations, the speculative nature of gold exploration and development, including the risks of diminishing quantities of grades of resources and reserves; contests over title to properties, and changes in project parameters as plans continue to be refined. Forward-looking information is based on the reasonable assumptions, estimates, analysis and opinions of management made in light of its experience and its perception of trends, current conditions and expected developments, as well as other factors that management believes to be relevant and reasonable in the circumstances at the date that such statements are made, but which may prove to be incorrect. Assumptions have been made regarding, among other things: Golden Birch's ability to carry on its exploration and development activities, the timely receipt of any required approvals, the price of metals, the ability of Golden Birch to obtain qualified personnel, equipment and services in a timely and cost-efficient manner, the ability of Golden Birch to operate in a safe, efficient and effective manner, the ability of Golden Birch to obtain financing on acceptable terms, the accuracy of Golden Birch's resources estimates and geological, operational and price assumptions on which these are based and the regulatory framework regarding environmental matters. Readers are cautioned that the foregoing list is not exhaustive of all factors and assumptions which may have been used. Although Golden Birch has attempted to identify important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in forward-looking information, there may be other factors that cause results not to be as anticipated, estimated or intended. There can be no assurance that such information will prove to be accurate, as actual results and future events could differ materially from those anticipated in such information. Accordingly, readers should not place undue reliance on forward-looking information. Golden Birch does not undertake to update any forward-looking information, except in accordance with applicable securities laws.

“Dimidi  Trend”    Transverse  Fault  (David  Lindley)  

In  New  Guinea,  the  upper  crust  is  rich  in  Late  Miocene  and  Pliocene  copper–gold  deposits,  yet  the  host  intrusives  are  mainly  in  the  New  Guinea  Fold  Belt  and  are  of  mantle  origin  and  not  directly  subducBon-­‐related.  Structural,  thermochronological  and  geodynamic  analyses  of  the  Grasberg,  Porgera,  Ok  Tedi  and  Frieda  River  deposits  show  that  the  richest  deposits  occur  along  the  eastern  edge  of  the  intersecBons  between  long-­‐lived  crustal  transfers  perpendicular  to  strike  and  strike-­‐parallel  crustal  extensional  faults  that  were  strongly  inverted  during  Late  Miocene  –  Pliocene  orogenesis.  The  deposits  are  all  associated  with  north-­‐northeast-­‐trending  transfers,  (source:  Hill,  Kendrick,  Crowhurst,  Gow,  2002,  direct  quote  from  source)
