On a further note, Caldera would also like to announce that the first phase of the summer program on the Marjan Gold project has been completed and samples will be shipped for analysis before the end of the month to the fully certified and accredited UK based Alex Stewart Geochemical Analytical LLC, located in Moscow, Russia.

The Marjan Gold and Silver Project
The Marjan Gold-Silver project has two distinct zones, referred to as the Northern Zone and the Central Zone. The Northern Zone was also explored between 1991 and 1992 by the Sisian Geological Exploration Group, Yerevan, Armenia.
The Central Zone of the Marjan Project was extensively explored between 1964 and 1989, and has Soviet-era GKZ standard resources as outlined below:

The resource estimate was published by Poghosyan N. F. in a 1995 report titled Marjan Gold-Silver-Polymetallic Property, State Committee for Reserves of Armenia, Sisian Geological Exploration Group, Yerevan, Armenia. Blocks of all categories are defined using a dry density of 2. 87 g/cm3, a minimum thickness of 0.4 metres, and a cut-off of 1.2 g/t of Gold.
In our recent review of historical resources on the Northern Zone, we have confirmed a historical Soviet-era GKZ standard resource, calculated by State Committee for Reserves of Armenia, Sisian Geological Exploration Group, Yerevan, as follows:

According to the Committee for Mineral Reserves International Reporting Standards (CRIRSCO), "C1
″
and "C2
″
classifications are equivalent to "indicated" and "inferred" resources(http://www.crirsco.com/guidelines_consultation_draft20100312.pdf).
Resources identified as P1 and P2 can be considered in the "Inferred" and "Mineralized Zone" categories respectively, as defined by the Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy and Petroleum (CIM) in their document "Estimation of Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves Best Practices Guidelines" (
http://www.cim.org/committees/CIMDefStds_Dec11_05.pdf
).
