- Cricket can acquire an undivided 60% interest in the Property;
- By incurring a total of $1,000,000 in exploration expenditures on the Property over four years;
- By making cash payments to TNR totalling $300,000 by the third year anniversary; and
- By providing share issuances to TNR totalling 600,000 shares by the third year anniversary.

Property Key Point Summary:

- 6 pegmatite dikes identified through exploration carried out by Lun-Echo Gold Mines in the 1950s;
- 4.23% Li2O over 7.5 m in channel sample reported by Lun-Echo at Pegmatite No. 1; and
- 2.57 wt% Li2O over 4 m in channel sample reported by TNR at Pegmatite No. 1.

"The Forgan Lake property has the potential to develop into a stand-alone rare metals project based on observations from our 2009 field season in conjunction with historical work performed by Lun-Echo," states Gary Schellenberg, President and CEO of TNR Gold, and continues, "The entering into a joint venture arrangement with Cricket to further explore TNR's Forgan Lake property is a successful application of our core business model and we welcome them as a joint venture partner."

Proposed Joint Venture Transaction

Forgan Lake Property

The Forgan Lake Property, which is comprised of a 256 hectare claim block (16 units), is located 125 km northeast of Thunder Bay, Ontario. The Property, which hosts six known rare-metal pegmatites, is part of the Georgia Lake pegmatite field, an area of considerable lithium and other rare-metals (e.g., tantalum, cesium, rubidium etc) exploration since its discovery in the mid-1950s.

Of the six-pegmatite dikes (1 through 6) on the Property, four (1-4) were part of a drilling campaign carried out in 1955 by Lun-Echo Gold Mines Limited ("Lun-Echo"). Of the 39 diamond drill holes drilled by Lun-Echo in the Forgan Lake area, 33 holes were bored on the Property.

The No. 1 Pegmatite dike has been traced on surface for about 274.3 m at an average width of 9.1 m. It contains 30% medium to coarse-grained spodumene (lithium mineral) and sporadic black tantalite-columbite crystals (tantalum-niobium minerals) up to 3.8 cm long. Historical channel sampling averaged 2.57% Li2O (lithium oxide) over 6.4 m, 4.23% Li2O over 7.5 m, and 1.98% Li2O over 7.6 m. A composite of channel sample taken across an old trench from this pegmatite during TNR's 2009 field program, returned 2.57 wt% Li2O over 4 metres in a range of 1.69 to 3.4 wt% Li2O supporting the values reported from the historical work (Company News Release – October 5th 2009).

The No. 2 Pegmatite, which is similar in composition to No. 1, has been traced in outcrop for 45.7 m with an exposed width of 13.7 m.

The No. 3 Pegmatite, located northwest of the No. 1 pegmatite, has been traced for 320.0 m with an averaged exposed width of 6.1 m. The No. 3 Pegmatite contains approximately 25% spodumene. Lun-Echo explored this pegmatite with 10 diamond holes, totalling 832.1 m, at intervals of 30.5 to 61.0 m. The best intersection averaged 1.78% Li2O over 1.52 metres.

The No. 4 Pegmatite has been traced on surface for approximately 243.8 m with an average surface width of 4.6 m. The pegmatite contains 10-15% fine to medium-grained spodumene.
