2009 GIL J/V DRILL PROGRAM OVERVIEW
The objective of the 2009 work program on the Gil Joint Venture in Fairbanks, Alaska, is to drill 16,000 ft to locate additional resources on the GIL J/V. The work will be managed and conducted by Fairbanks Gold Mining Inc./Kinross Gold.
The 2009 Gil Project Exploration Program has the following goals:
- Ground magnetometer survey concentrating on Sourdough Ridge.
- Delineate mineralized zones and establish a resource base at Sourdough Ridge.
- Expand resource at North Gil.
- 10,000 feet of RC drilling and 6,000 feet of HQ-NQ core drilling
Drillhole collar locations will be selected upon completion of the geophysical survey. In addition, samples will be collected for a preliminary column leach study.

Other Alaska Properties
Teryl is one of the main property owners in the Fairbanks Mining Division around and adjacent to Kinross’ producing Fort Knox Mine and True North property. In addition to the Gil property, Teryl’s other Alaskan properties include the West Ridge, Fish Creek and Stepovich properties.
The West Ridge property (100% owned by Teryl) contains two gold zones (“East” and “West” anomalies). Both anomalies contain elevated gold in soil, the West mineralization being associated with high levels of arsenic and antimony similar to the chemistry of gold mineralization found at Kinross’ True North deposit (616,000 ounces of gold at 0.046 ounces per ton gold). To date, Teryl and Kinross have spent about $350,000 on the exploration of the West Ridge property.
The Fish Creek Property (50% owned by Teryl by option) is located adjacent to the north of the Company’s Gil Property. Elevated gold values, identified in an auger drill program, suggest the property may contain an extension of the mineralized zone found on the Gil property.
The Stepovich property is owned 100% by Kinross subject to a 10% net profit interest owned by Teryl. The property is adjacent to the Fort Knox gold deposit and could be readily available for production to feed the Fort Knox Mill.
The Company believes its properties in Alaska could contain significant deposits of ore similar to that found at Fort Knox and True North. These deposits, once defined, could be readily put into production and processed at Kinross’ Fort Knox mill.
