Overview

In February 2011, Mutiny completed a scoping study on its Deflector Deposit, located within the Gullewa Gold Project. The scoping study highlighted Deflector's potential as a profitable low cost Gold-Copper producer.

Currently, the Mutiny team is continuing work on a feasibility study. The Company has engaged GR Engineering Services to head up the mechanical engineering and plant design works. Xstract Group is conducting the mine studies and Mutiny's in-house project manager and metallurgist, Kevin Reynolds is managing the feasibility study process as well as overseeing the metallurgical test work. The feasibility study is expected to be completed in early 2012.

The Deflector Gold-Copper Deposit contains total Mineral Resources of 3.4Mt @ 5.4g/t Gold and 0.8% Copper for 590,000oz Gold and 25,500t Copper of which Measured and Indicated Resources total 1.5Mt @ 4.8g/t Gold and 1.0% Copper for 230,000oz of Gold and 16,500t of Copper. (see Table 1 below).
