- Report (NI 43-101) on Hudson Bay Mining & Smelting Co., Limited for Callinan Mines Ltd., (A. C. A. Howe International Limited - Michael Newbury - dated Nov 5, 2004) summarized;
- "The closure of some of the mining operations will result in a higher dependence on the 777/Callinan mine and the plan includes an increase in production at that mine�..The Life of Mine plan projects increased underground operations over 2004 levels primarily at the 777/Callinan operation to offset the closure of the Kuonto mine.� The report concluded; �The current proven and probable reserve and the ore body growth opportunity, particularly at the low cost Trout Lake and 777/Callinan mines provides potential to extend the current 13 year mine life."
