At the time of the Agreement, Geoinformatics was recognized as an exploration targeting industry-leader utilizing empirical, statistical, and sophisticated probabilistic methods to electronically identify and rank exploration targets. In 2001, Geoinformatics’ principals were part of the team that won the “Goldcorp Challenge” in connection with ore targeting at Goldcorp’s Red Lake mine.

Pursuant to the Agreement, Geoinformatics identified a total of 19 near-mine targets around St Andrew’s Hislop Mine that include possible extensions of ore shoots and prospective structural zones. In addition to these near-mine targets at Hislop, 81 regional targets were identified in the project area. The Company alleges that, under the Agreement, St Andrew is obliged to make 0.5% NSR royalty payments in respect of both the near-mine and regional targets. Currently, several of the identified targets relate to producing St Andrew gold mines (Hislop Mine, Holloway Mine) and exploration prospects. However, the Company has not received any NSR royalty payments to date and alleges that St. Andrew is in arrears in the amount of approximately $999,315, plus applicable interest, in respect of NSR royalty payments under the Agreement based on Kiska’s understanding of St. Andrew’s mining activity to date from publicly available sources. The exact amount can only be determined once St. Andrew provides additional information about its tenure and production history as required under the Agreement.

In connection with this action, Kiska is asking the Court to determine its rights under the Agreement and consequential damages relating to St Andrew’s failure to remit NSR payments.
