(TSX VENTURE:MKR) is earning a 50% interest from Beaufield Resources Inc. Details of the agreement were described in the press release of October 24, 2008.

The claims are located in the Troilus mineral belt which hosts the Inmet Mining Corp Troilus gold mine. In addition to the Troilus gold mine the Troilus area also hosts several base metal and gold occurrences some of which have reported tonnages. These include Tortigny and Moleon base metal deposits (100% Beaufield).
