1.0 INTRODUCTION
This report has been prepared by Transition Metals Corp. to provide documentation of a program of
physical work completed on a property located in Bayly Township, Larder Lake Mining District between
August 22th and August 28th, 2011. The company conducted the work to expand on the Bute-Larder gold
occurrence located north of Wendigo Lake. The content of this report is believed by the author to be
current, as of December 1st, 2011.
2.0 PROPERTY LOCATION, ACCESS, AND DESCRIPTION
The New Kirkland property consists of one 1.6 km by 1.6 km claim block north of Wendigo Lake
in mid-central Bayly township at approximately 597670E, 5303930N (Zone 17; NAD 83 ) (Figure
1; Table 1). At the time of the work program, there were no other claims staked in Bayly
Township. Numerous pits and trenches dating pre-1940 are found on the property and have
been exposed to varying degrees by present and past logging operations.
The trenches are located at a point of locally higher elevation with downward slopes to the
west, south and east. The property contains a combination of dry hummocky higher ground and
wet, swampy low ground. Drainage is towards Wendigo Lake, and there are few sources of
water on the property other than small beaver ponds.
The property is accessible via a winter logging road, referred to as the Gogo road by local
cottagers, exiting south from highway 624 approximately 12 km south of Larder Lake. The
logging road is roughly 16 km long from the highway to the trenching locations. During the field
visit in August, the road was driveable by truck for a few kilometres only, after which ATV’s
were required due to poor road conditions. The property can also be accessed by boat via
Wendigo Lake with a short (< 1 km) hike from the lake shore.

4.0 GEOLOGY
4.1. Regional Geology
The following description of the Abitibi greenstone belt was summarized by Hart (2011), and was extracted from Ayer et al. (2002, 2005) and Thurston et al. (2008) and on the references found in those papers. The Abitibi greenstone belt is composed of east-trending synclines of mainly volcanic rocks and intervening domes cored by synvolcanic and/or syntectonic plutonic rocks (gabbro-diorite, tonalite, and granite) alternating with east-trending bands of turbiditic wackes (Figure 2). Most of the volcanic and sedimentary rock dip vertically and are generally separated by east-trending faults with variable dips. Some of these faults, such as the Porcupine-Destor fault, display evidence for overprinting deformation events including early thrusting, later strike-slip and extension events. There are two ages of unconformable successor basins, early, widely distributed “Porcupine-style” basins of fine-grained clastic rocks,
4
followed by later “Timiskaming-style” basins of coarser clastic and minor volcanic rocks which are largely proximal to major strike-slip faults (e.g. Porcupine-Destor, Larder-Cadillac). Numerous late-tectonic plutons from syenite and gabbro to granite with lesser dikes of lamprophyre and carbonatite cut the belt.
Metavolcanic and metasedimentary rocks of the Abitibi greenstone belt have been subdivided into a series of assemblages, the Pacaud, Deloro, Stoughton-Roquemaure, Kidd-Munro, Tisdale, and Blake River. The 2723 to 2720 Ma Stoughton-Roquemaure assemblage, characterised by broad regions of tholeiitic basalts, komatiitic basalts, and komatiites with several relatively minor felsic volcanic centers, is located on the east flank of the Round Lake batholith. Calc-alkaline intermediate to felsic volcanic rocks of the 2701 to 2696 Ma upper Blake River assemblage overlie the Stoughton-Roquemaure in the Kirkland Lake area and have been interpreted to underlie the area of the New Kirkland property (Figure 2).

property location in orange.

The plutonic rocks of the Abitibi greenstone belt were subdivided by Ayer et al. (2005) into synvolcanic, syn-tectonic and post-tectonic intrusions. The synvolcanic intrusions were further subdivided in to felsic to intermediate and mafic to ultramafic intrusions. Felsic to intermediate synvolcanic intrusions range in age from about 2745 to 2696 Ma and are coeval with, and geochemically similar to, the volcanic assemblages. These intrusions predate significant compressional strain, are typically foliated tonalite to granodiorite, and are found predominantly within the larger granitic complexes (e.g Round Lake batholith). Mafic to ultramafic bodies intrude the metavolcanic rocks to the north and east of the property (unit 10; Figure 3). These rocks may be part of the suite of mafic to ultramafic synvolcanic intrusions that range from approximately 2740 to 2700 Ma and mainly occur as peridotite to gabbro and diorite sills or lenticular units that cut stratigraphy at a low angle. The Archean rocks are unconformably overlain by Paleoproterozoic rocks of the Huronian Supergroup, which were deposited in a north-trending graben referred to as the Cobalt Embayment overlying the Abitibi greenstone belt (unit 16b; Figure 3). Four formations, the Gowganda, Lorrain, Gordon Lake, and Bar River, were deposited in the Embayment and form the upper most sedimentary cycle of the Huronian Supergroup collectively referred to as the Cobalt Group (Bennett et al. 1991). The Gowganda Formation has been subdivided in to the lower Coleman Member consisting of clast and matrix supported conglomerate, and the upper Firstbrook Member consisting of pebbly wacke, wacke, siltstone, mudstone, and arenite. The Coleman Member conglomerates have been interpreted to have been glacial or alternatively debris flows or turbidity currents. The finer sediments of the Firstbrook Member are interpreted to have been deposited in a deltaic environment. Gabbroic rocks of the Nipissing Intrusive event intrude all older rocks of the Cobalt Embayment forming sills, dykes and undulating sheets up to a few hundred metres thick (Bennett et al. 1991) (Unit 17; Figure 3). A two pyroxene gabbro is the most common lithology in the Nipissing but olivine gabbro, hornblende gabbro, feldspathic pyroxenite, leucogabbro, and granophyric gabbro and granophyres are also present. The 2219 Ma Nipissing gabbro may have originated from a radiating dike swarm related to the 2217-2210 Ma Ungava magmatic event located under the Labrador Trough fed via the 2216 Ma Senneterre dykes that form part of the radiating dike swarm (Ernst 2007). Locally, emplacement of the Nipissing appears to have been controlled by pre-existing structures in the Huronian and Archean basement rocks.

Supracrustal units in the Abitibi greenstone belt are dominated by east-striking volcanic and sedimentary assemblages and east-trending Archean deformation zones and folds. Larger batholithic complexes external to the supracrustal rocks (e.g. Round Lake) represent centres of structural domes. The intervening areas define belt-scale synclinoria that deformed during a number of distinct periods. This pattern is interrupted by the trends of Porcupine and Timiskaming assemblage rocks which unconformably overlie the older assemblages. Older syntectonic intrusions (2695–2685 Ma) may be related to the compressive stresses that induced early folding and faulting related to the onset of continental collision between the Abitibi and older sub provinces to the north. Younger syntectonic intrusions (2680–2670 Ma) are coeval with the Timiskaming assemblage and are spatially associated with the Porcupine Destor and Larder Lake Cadillac deformation zones. The late tectonic intrusions (2670–2660 Ma) are possibly synchronous with D4 folding within the Timiskaming assemblage rocks in the Timmins area and represent the final stage in transpressional deformation along the Porcupine Destor deformation zone and may be correlative with the D2 event identified in the Kirkland Lake–Larder Lake area. The regional deformation zones commonly occur at assemblage boundaries and are spatially closely associated with long linear belts representing the sedimentary assemblages (i.e., Porcupine and Timiskaming). It has been proposed that the regional association of the Porcupine Destor and Larder Lake Cadillac deformation zones and major assemblage boundaries are proximal to the locus of early synvolcanic extensional faults.
4.2. Local Geology
The property is underlain to the east by intermediate to felsic metavolcanic rocks interpreted to be part of the calc-alkaline 2701 to 2696 Ma upper Blake River assemblage. The metavolcanic rocks are intruded by a suite of medium- to coarse-grained gabbro and diorite bodies exposed to the north and east of the property (Lovell et al., 1976) (Figure 3). Clastic metasedimentary rocks of the Cobalt Group, Huronian Supergroup, unconformably overlie the older lithologies. A northeast-striking Proterozoic-age diabase dyke intrudes all younger units.
Intermediate to felsic rocks on the property consist of dacitic crystal tuffs, lapilli-tuffs and tuff breccias exposed to the east. The metavolcanic rocks trend to the northeast and are part of the south-eastern limb of a large anticline with an axis that strikes east through Skead Twp. (Lovell and Ploeger 1980).
A different suite of northeast-trending, medium- to coarse-grained gabbros and diorites intrude the metavolcanic rocks (Figure 3). Lovell and Ploeger (1980) mapped two major sills of high MgO tholeiite composition intruding subparallel to the bedding of the metavolcanic rocks.
Uncomformably overlying the older rocks on the west side of the property are argillites and conglomerates of the Coleman Member of the Cobalt Group, Huronian Supergroup (Lovell et al., 1976) (Figure 3). The metasedimentary rocks of the Coleman Member are relatively flat-lying, dipping approximately 20°; however steeper dips of up to 70° have been noted and are
8
interpreted to represent deposition on steep paleo-slopes of the underlying Archean basement rocks (Lovell and Ploeger 1980).
Three sets of northeast-, northwest- and east-northeast-trending faults are found locally. Most of the faults are pre-Huronian. However, some northwest trending faults cause offsets in the Huronian rocks suggesting a younger age or re-activation of pre-existing structures (Lovell and Ploeger, 1980).
4.3 Trench Geology
The main lithology exposed in all of the trenches consisted of intermediate tuff to intermediate lapilli tuff breccia (Appendix B; figures B1 to B8). Clasts in the breccias are intermediate in composition, sub angular, and range from granule to cobble sized within a fine-grain to granular matrix. In all the trenches, except trench 1, the intermediate tuff is cut by a narrow, silicified and carbonatized fracture ranging between 10 and 45 cm thick (Figure 4). The silicification and carbonatization in the trenches is discontinuous and fracture-controlled.
Weakly sheared quartz veinlets and stringers and variable sulphide mineralization occur in both the central fracture and occasionally in the minor fractures. The quartz occurs as lens-shaped veins within the fracture zone up to a few centimetres in thickness, and outside the fracture zone as fracture-fill quartz veinlets that are typically less than 4 mm thick.
Figure 4. North-trending main fracture cutting intermediate metavolcanic rocks
9
Sulphide mineralization within the main fracture is patchy and variable both within the veins
and along the vein contacts. Some patches contain up to 10% disseminated medium- to coarse-
grained chalcopyrite, trace fine-grained malachite and trace fine-grained azurite. In trench 3,
one sample contained up to 5% chalcopyrite, trace malachite, azurite and sphalerite. Trench 4
hosted a vug that contains prismatic coarse-grained quartz up to 0.5 cm long and coarse-
grained chalcopyrite up to 4 mm in diameter.
Sulphide mineralization in the narrow fracture extends no more than 10 cm to either side of the
fracture and the host rock outside of the zone remains unsulphidized with the exception of
minor joint- and fracture-fill quartz veinlets. Mineralization in the competent host rock and un-
sulphidized fractures was not sampled during this project.
4.3.1 Trench Structure
The main fracture zone extends at least 150 m along strike trending between 334° and 354°,
with dips between 80° to vertical. A second fracture was exposed in trench 6 strikes
approximately 080o and dips 81o (Figure B7). This second fracture correlates well with a 7 cm
thick quartz vein exposed in trench 7 that strikes 262o and dips 89o (Figure B8). This second
fracture and quartz vein likely intersects the main fracture but that intersection was not
exposed during this work program. It is also possible that the fracture in trench 6 and the
quartz vein in trench 7 are not related as the trench 6 fracture does not contain a quartz vein.
The character of the structure hosting the quartz vein in trench 7 is also difficult to determine
due to the poor wallrock exposure.
Jointing and fracturing in the trenches is pervasive. Jointing is weakly to moderately variable
and tend to be sub-parallel and sub-perpendicular to the main narrow fracture. In trench 1,
most of the joints and fractures contain less than 4 mm quartz veinlets. However in the other
trenches, quartz veinlets in the joints are not as pervasive.
4.4 Prospecting
Prospecting on the property confirmed the geology mapped by the Ontario Geological Survey
(Lovell and Ploeger 1980). The exception being a single conglomerate outcrop observed at
597557E, 5304270N (Zone 17; NAD 83), which is 50 m to the east of the current eastern
boundary of the Huronian Supergroup.

5. WORK PROGRAM
The current program undertaken by Transition Metals Corp. focused primarily on stripping,
washing, and mapping of the trenches. The objective of the trenching was to expand on
exposures resulting from pits and trenches from previous work. An initial day of prospecting
was conducted on June 2nd, 2011 to locate the trenches and reconnaissance mapping on the
claim. The main physical work program was conducted from August 22nd until August 28th, 2011
and consisted of trenching and prospecting.
5.1. Physical Work
The stripping was performed by Fred Pritchard of Elk Lake Enterprises A Dahl 753 backhoe was
used to excavate the overburden of seven trench areas covering 563 m2.A high pressure water
pump and hoses were supplied by Elk Lake Enterprises, and washing of the trenches was
performed by Jared Shilson and Michaela Kuuskman. A sump excavated during construction of
the logging road was used as a water supply to wash trench 6, and a second sump was dug in a
swampy area to wash the other six trenches.
The trenches were mapped on a scale of 1: 100 as they were cleaned by either Jared Shilson or
Michaela Kuuskman. The results of the mapping are showing in Figure B2 to B8 in Appendix B.
5.2 Prospecting
On June 2nd, 2011, Greg Collins, Tom Hart, Jared Shilson and Caitlin Beland spent a day
establishing access to the property and prospecting to locate the historical trenching and pitting
reported to be present on the property. A number of samples were collected with the locations
shown in figure 4. On August 22nd, 2011, Michaela Kuuskman and Jared Shilson prospected the
area close to the trenches while searching for a suitable water source for trench washing.
5.3 Sampling
The objective of trench sampling was to determine the nature of mineralization found in the
fractures as well as evaluating mineralization associated with quartz veinlets and stringers that
could be related to the same or similar structures as the fracture zone. A total of 48 grab
samples were collected from the seven trenches by J. Shilson and M. Kuuskman using a
hammer and chisel. Sample descriptions were completed by J. Shilson and M. Kuuskman and
are located in Appendix C, table C1. Sample locations are shown in Appendix B, figures B1 to B8.
11
A total of 6 grab samples were also collected while prospecting during the June 2nd, 2011
property visit to establish access and on August 22nd while searching for a suitable pump water
source for trench washing. Locations of samples obtained while prospecting are shown in figure
B1.
All samples collected on the New Kirkland property were submitted to ALS Chemex for sample
preparation in Sudbury and analyses in Vancouver for gold and a multi-element package. Assay
certificates are found in Appendix D.

6. CONCLUSIONS
The main fracture zone exposed in the trenches may be a narrow fault splay related to a west-
northwest-trending fault mapped by Lovell and Ploeger (1980). Gold mineralization is
associated with the quartz veins and sulphide mineralization that could be temporally related
to the faulting event or possibly a later mineralization event.
Assay results returned Au values range from 0.5 g/t to 6.99 g/t (Appendix C, Table C1) (Figures
B2 to B8). Additionally, a grab sample of float interpreted to be from past-trenching of trench 7
assayed up to 46.7 g/t. These assay results demonstrate the presence of gold mineralization
within two fracture zones.
The total width of the north-trending fracture system varies from less than 10 cm to 50 cm over
a strike distance of approximately 150 metres (Figure 3 and B1). Trenching did not expose any
parallel fractures that could extend the width of the main structure, however the trenches did
not expose a large area lateral to the main fracture zone (Figures B2-B8). The width of the
mineralization within the fracture zone has not been tested in detail as the samples collected
during this work program consisted of only grab samples. Channel sampling was not attempted
as in many places along the fracture zone previous trenching have removed a large portion of
the fracture and vein material leaving a narrow, steep sided channel along the fracture zone
that precluded the use of a channel saw. An alteration zone associated with the fracture was
not identified but due to the narrow nature of the trenching, it is difficult to determine if there
may be a subtle broad alteration halo around the fractures.
A fracture roughly perpendicular to the north-trending fracture zone was exposed in Trench 7
and assay results indicate that this second structure also hosts gold mineralization (Figure B8).
The assay results ranged from 0.003g/t to 0.12g/t which are lower than the north-trending
assay values. However, this west-trending structure was exposed in only the one trench and the
lateral continuity and potential for other sub parallel fractures has not been fully evaluated.
13
7. RECOMMENDATIONS
The presence of gold mineralization in the north- and west- trending structures, although
narrow in the 2011 trenches, indicates a potential for additional gold mineralization along strike
in both structures. Staking of additional claims along strike with these fracture zones has been
completed in the fall of 2011 following the receipt of the analytical results.
The trenching completed in 2011 was limited to small area to determine the potential for gold
mineralization, and did not fully test the potential for adjacent parallel or sub-parallel
structures. Additional trenching would be helpful in determining the potential for additional
structures in the immediate area of the 2011 trenches.
There is also the potential for additional gold mineralization along strike with the currently
identified mineralization, but outcropping hosting gold mineralization could be some distance
from the current trenches. The next phase of exploration should involve a program of
prospecting and mapping and grab sampling in an attempt to locate the strike extensions of
the know fracture zones as well as to identify fracture zones similar to the main fracture zone
mapped in the trenches. The extent of the west-trending 7 cm thick quartz vein in trench 7
remains unknown however the possibility that this fracture could be related to an adit located
off the claim but along strike to the east requires further investigation. Reconnaissance
mapping of the newly acquired claim should be completed as part of this program to
investigate the character of the gold occurrences in the areas to the north and how these
occurrences may relate to the gold mineralization exposed during this work program.
A geophysical survey may prove useful in locating similar structures and confirming the
continuity of the approximate 345 degree strike to the structure that runs through the trenched
area. The association of the gold mineralization with fracture zones containing only minor
sulphide mineralization suggests that VLF-EM or induced polarization survey could be useful in
tracing the structures. The perpendicular relationship between the two structures could
require any survey to be completing in two overlapping orientations.
