Drifting on both the -3800 level and the -3400 level are now on the D Vein South.

*Print“Of ~~name~~the ~~and~~13 ~~title~~drills ~~under~~working on site today, four are now dedicated to exploration of the ~~signature~~upper D Zone which is wide open to the south and 3000 feet up to surface, “ said Stew Carmichael. “The proximity of the ~~signing~~D ~~officer~~Zone to a shaft and existing mine infrastructure make it the most important

program that we have on the go.”

The newest level, 34, has returned 140 feet strike length of 0.51 ounce of gold per ton across 9.0 feet on the D South, followed by 183 feet strike length of 0.15 ounce of gold per ton across 9.3 feet. Drifting to the north along the D structure is proceeding, and is now approximately 300 feet from the D North, and 900 feet from the main ore horizon (the east-west ’04 Break). The drilling has extended the D North 200 feet to the north towards the ’04 Break.

About the Company

The Company purchased the Macassa Mine and the 1,500 ton per day mill along with four former producing gold properties – Kirkland Lake Gold, Teck-Hughes, Lake Shore and Wright Hargreaves – in December 2001. These properties, which have historically produced some 22 million ounces of gold, extend over seven kilometres between the Macassa Mine on the east

and Wright Hargreaves on the west and for the first time are being developed and explored under one owner. This camp is located in the Abitibi Southern Greenstone Belt of Kirkland Lake, Ontario, Canada.

The results of the Company’s underground diamond drilling program have been reviewed, verified (including sampling, analytical and test data) and compiled by the Company's geological staff (which includes a ‘qualified person’, Michael Sutton P.Geo. for the purpose of NI 43-101, Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects).

The Company has implemented a quality assurance and control (QA/QC) program to ensure sampling and analysis of all exploration work is conducted in accordance with the best possible practices. The drill core is sawn in half with half of the core samples shipped to the Swastika Laboratories in Swastika, Ontario or to the Macassa mine laboratory for analysis. The other half of the core is retained for future assay verification. Other QA/QC includes the insertion of blanks, and the regular re-assaying of pulps/rejects at alternate certified labs (Polymet, Accurassay). Gold analysis is conducted by fire assay using atomic absorption or gravimetric finish. The laboratory re-assays at least 10% of all samples and additional checks may be run on anomalous values.

The Company’s Kirkland Lake properties are the subject of a report prepared by Roland H. Ridler, B.A.Sc.(hons.), M.A.Sc., Ph.D.(Econ.Geol.), P.D., entitled Kirkland Lake Mineral Properties (Macassa Mine, Kirkland Lake Gold, Teck-Hughes, Lake Shore, Wright-Hargreaves dated November 30, 2001.

These reserves and resources were completed internally by the Company’s personnel, while the previous reserves and resources were completed in December 2002 internally by the Company’s personnel and were audited by Roscoe Postle Associates Inc. (an independent geological and mining consulting firm). The reserves are not part of the resources. For details on the calculation of reserves and resources, please refer to the disclosure on the Company’s website.

Cautionary Note to U.S. investors concerning estimates of Measured and Indicated Resources

This news release uses the terms “measured” and “indicated resources.” We advise U.S. investors that while those terms are recognized and required by Canadian regulations, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission does not recognize them. U.S. investors are cautioned not to assume that any part or all of mineral deposits in these categories will ever be converted into reserves.

Cautionary Note to U.S. investors concerning estimates of Inferred Resources

This news release uses the term “inferred resources.” We advise U.S. investors that while this term is recognized and required by Canadian regulations, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission does not recognize it. “Inferred resources” have a great amount of uncertainty as to their existence, and great uncertainty as to their economic and legal feasibility. It cannot be assumed that all or any part of an Inferred Mineral Resource will ever be upgraded to a higher category. Under Canadian rules, estimates of Inferred Resources may not form the basis of feasibility or other economic studies. U.S. investors are cautioned not to assume that part or all of an inferred resource exists, or is economically or legally minable.

Cautionary Note to U.S. Investors- The United States Securities and Exchange Commission permits U.S. mining companies, in their filings with the SEC, to disclose only those mineral deposits that a company can economically and legally extract or produce. We use certain terms is press release, such as “measured,” “indicated,” and “inferred” ”resources,” that the SEC guidelines strictly prohibit U.S. registered companies from including in their filings with the SEC. U.S. Investors are urged to consider closely the disclosure in our Form 20F, File No. 01-31380, which may be secured from us, or from the SEC’s website at http://www.sec.gov/edgar.sht.
