Flynn Gold Ltd will pursue a systematic exploration strategy to continue geological mapping, soil sampling, cost analysis and possible reconnaissance drilling of the tin-tungsten potential of the Cameron Project.

A review of the previous sampling, including a recently completed field reconnaissance program, confirms the potential for tin-tungsten mineralization in an area known for historical tin mining and prospecting.
Results to date are considered encouraging, confirming the potential for bedrock tin mineralization in the historic alluvial zone and also confirming previously unrecognized associated tungsten in the area.
Flynn's reconnaissance outcrop sampling of the Hardens Ravine target area yielded up to 0.96% Sn and 2.3% W from a single sample and defined an initial target area of up to 2 x 2 km.
Sampling at the periphery of the Star Hill target area returned anomalous Sn-Tw results up to 3.2% Sn and 2.1% W. Additional target areas were identified at Woods Flat, South Mount, Wyniford and Tallewang, and further field mapping and sampling is planned.
The regional geology of the Cameron Tin Project highlights the priority target areas identified. Flynn's tin prospect review also identified a tin prospect south of the Tallewang target area, and a gold prospect west and north of the Golden Ridge project.
The company has now secured this area, known as Bendover Hill, by submitting a lease application (EL16/2021) covering 195 square kilometers between EL18/2018 in the north and EL17/2018 (Golden Ridge) in the south.
Although the Cameron Tin Project remains the secondary focus behind Flynn's gold project, the results of the review and recent field survey sampling are considered encouraging. Flynn Gold remains positive about the potential tin mining opportunities in this undeveloped area.
The future work of the Cameron tin-tungsten project goal will follow a systematic exploration strategy, including continued geological mapping, soil sampling, cost analysis and possible reconnaissance drilling.
