INTRODUCTION

In September of 2001, Berland Resources Ltd. signed a letter agreement with Ninety Nine Resources Ltd. of Thunder Bay, Ontario to option the 7 claim (3 separate claim groups) property with nickel, copper and platinum group element potential. Berland can earn a 10007o interest subject to certain net smelter royalties by making cash and share payments over three years.

Claim 1247070 was recorded on October 5, 2001 to link together the two eastern blocks. The property now consists of 8 unpatented mining claims, 99 units and covers 3,960 acres in two separate blocks located in the Junior lake (G-57) and Falcon Lake (G-35) claim map areas of the Thunder Bay mining Division. All work described in this report was conducted on the east block and specifically on claim 123 8090.

In October of 2001, Berland contracted M. P. Lewis Geological Services of Thunder Bay, Ontario to conduct a geological survey on the cut grid on the Swole Lake property. Mr. Pat Lewis (P. Geo) mapped the grid and wrote the geological mapping and prospecting portion of this report. Stares Contracting Corporation of Thunder Bay, Ontario was contracted by Berland Resources Ltd. to prospect the grid at the same time. The logistics and results are reported in the attached report prepared by W. Mccrindle of Berland.

LOCATION AND ACCESSIBILITY

The property is located approximately 30 kilometers east and north of Lake Nipigon, north of Toronto Lake in the Junior Lake claim map area. The property is accessible by an all weather gravel road running east from Armstrong for 100 km. From the end of a secondary logging road, the Swole Lake grid and showings are accessed by a 300 meter trail and short boat ride across Swole Lake. (See figure 1)

PROPERTY DESCRIPTION

The property is comprised of 8 unpatented mining claims, 99 units, covering 3,960 acres in two separate claim blocks, (see figure 2) The claims are listed in table #1. Each claim block was staked to cover one or more geologically significant mafic-ultramafic intrusions. The central core of the east claim block is covered by mature spruce. Swole Lake and its marginal bog cover the east portion of the block. Outcrop is sparse throughout the property but the overburden appeared thin over the central upland area.

Total 8 claims, 99 units, 3,960 acres.

HISTORY

Prospectors found very old blasted pits near the new showings. No record of these pits was found in the assessment files.

In 1983, Kerr Addison Mines filed work on reconnaissance exploration in the Summit Lake area consisting of geological mapping and soil sampling. The northwest corner of the survey area overlaps the southern claims of Berland's east block.

Initial prospecting by Inco Ltd. and Ninety Nine Resources Ltd. in 1999 revealed anomalous values in nickel, copper and PGE elements from the west side of Swole Lake. Results were subsequently filed for assessment.

OGS report #55 and accompanying map - Crescent Lake Geology map # 2100 by E.G. Pye, 1968 describes the geology of the claims.

1989 airborne electromagnetic and total intensity magnetic geophysical survey of the Tashota- Geraldton-Longlac Area flown for the Ontario Geological Survey at a scale of l :20,000 covers the area.

GEOLOGICAL SETTING

Each claim block covers one or more mafic to ultra-mafic intrusion situated within a sedimentary and volcanic sequence of rocks of archean age. Each intrusion hosts sulphide mineralization

-6-

containing anomalous values in nickel, copper and PGE's or untested airborne geophysical electromagnetic anomalies detected by a recent OGS airborne geophysical survey. With the discovery of pegmatite boulders, the proximity of the granitic pluton to the north becomes of great significance.

DEPOSIT TYPES

The primary focus of the exploration is to locate a gabbroic intrusive bearing a nickel copper, and platinum group element (PGE) deposit and/or a layered gabbro with reef type mineralized layers.

GEOLOGICAL MAPPING and PROSPECTING

In mid-October, 2001 M.P. Lewis Geological Services was commissioned by Berland Resources Ltd. of Thunder Bay, Ontario to carry out a geological mapping survey over a portion of its Swole Lake property. The area comprised a 9.5 km grid adjacent to the west side of Swole Lake and exclusively within mining claim 1238090 (Figure 2). The grid had recently been constructed to accommodate a HLEM/magnetometer survey over the Swole Lake Cu-Ni PGM prospect. Geological mapping was conducted by Pat Lewis, P.Geo, while prospecting was simultaneously carried out by Mick and Steve Stares of Stares Contracting Corporation.

Traverses, both geological and prospecting, were carried out on all 100 meter spaced grid lines. Outcrop and float is dominanatly confined to a 300 x 350 meter area centered on L98+00-N at BL100+00-N. This area of outcrop and float has a maximum relief of 3-5 meters over the surrounding relatively flat terrain.

Vegetation over the grid area is variably ranging from mature black spruce over the area of highest relief to lake shore open-swamp to immature spruce/tamarack muskeg to mature spruce muskeg to immature spruce muskeg from grid east to grid west.

GEOLOGICAL MAPPING

The Swole Lake property (grid) is underlain by the western portion of the Swole Lake ultramafic- mafic complex. Outcrop exposure, which is limited to the northeast sector of the grid, defines the intrusion to be restricted to an area 300 x 400 meters immediately west of Swole Lake. The extent of the intrusion to the east under Swole Lake is unknown. The composition of the Swole Lake Intrusion varies from melanocratic gabbro in the south to pyroxenite to the north and is bordered to the west by supracrustal rocks, namely banded metasediments. The melanocratic phase of the intrusion is so designated as it contains ^SVo interstitial coarse grained feldspar. The pyroxenite phase contains nil to >5% fine grained feldspar.

ULTRAMAFIC-MAFIC COMPLEXA: Melanogabbro Phase (Unit la)This phase of the intrusion, which comprises the southern portion of the complex, is exposed in just two outcrop localities with the main exposure located along the west shoreline of Swole Lake. Melanogabbro is coarse grained containing sub 3 cm elongated pyroxene crystals (75"^o) in a plagioclase (25 07o) matrix. This phase of the gabbro is non-magnetic with little or no alteration to

-7-

be observed in hand specimen.

B: Pyroxenite (Unit 1)The Swole Lake ultramafic-mafic complex is mainly comprised of pyroxene gabbro (pyroxenite). This particular phase is dark green to black in colour, medium grained (sub 2 cm), massive and is predominantly void of feldspar. The pyroxenite phase of the intrusion is variably altered (actinolite- tremolite+/carbonate) and is locally slight to strongly magnetic.

SUPRACRUSTRAL ROCKSC: MetasedimentsWell bedded metasediments are exposed and define the western limit of the Swole Lake ultramafic- mafic complex in the area of L97+00-N and BL100+00-E. These sediments are well bedded (sub 2 cm), medium grained, sugary texture and compositionally are comprised of sugary quartz (quartzite) and minor amphibolite. Local sub 2 mm euhedral feldspar crystals and the amphibolite are likely due to granitization caused by the intruding gabbro. Sedimentary bedding is orientated at 300 degrees with a 50 degree dip to the south.

FELSIC DYKED: PegamtiteOf potential importance was the discovery of a pegmatite boulder field located immediately grid west of the Swole Lake Cu-Ni mineralized zone on L98+00-N. Up to 12 large angular erratics, comprised of pegmatite and/or meta-sediments are distributed over an area 25.0 meters x 25.0 meters. Pegmatite erratics (sub 2.0 meters x 2.0 meters - Photo l and 2 in appendix I) are comprised of coarse grained milkly white feldspar (40^0), medium to dark purple lepidolite? - lithium-rich mica (25 07o), quartz (1 5*Yo), spodumene crystals? (l O^o), mica (S-4%) and minor amounts of adularia (high temperature feldspar - pink to red in colour) and tantalum. Tantalum crystals as sub 0.5 cm long needles and 0.5 long tabular crystals were sighted in numerous hand specimens.

Increasing demand for tantalum is the result of the metal's use in the production of electronic capacitors and in a variety of specialty metal alloys in the chemical and aerospace industries. This demand and recent escalating commodity price (now lowered) for tantalum has resulted in a number of companies exploring for tantalum in this Crescent Lake area of Northwestern Ontario. The Swole Lake property is located in the Cresent Lake greenstone belt and is situated east of a number of tantalum occurrences, namely the Zigzag Lake and the Seymour Lake occurrences.

The pegmatite erratics are inferred to be in place because of a number of factors: 1) the apparent cluster of the pegmatite and host metasediment erratics and 2) the largest of the pegmatite erratics is in contact with the host metasediment (Photo 3, appendix I). The structural bedding attitude (strike and dip) matches the measured strike and dip (290/64 degrees south) of the outcropping metasediments near L97+00-N. The contact between the host metasediments and the dyke material is orientated at 010/70 degrees west.

A total of nine (9) samples (Table III) were collected from separate erratics within the field and forwarded to XRAL Labs in Toronto to be analyzed for rare metal elements:

MINERALIZATION

Cu-Ni and trace amount of Pt and Pd mineralization had previously been discovered on the Swole Lake property by Inco and Ninety Nine Resources Ltd. This mineralization was confined to the Swole Lake gabbro and graded highs of Q.79% Cu, G.65% Ni, 220 ppb Pt and 204 ppt Pd (previous sampling).

Grid mapping indicates that the Swole Lake mineralized zone is confined to an area 25 meters by 110 meters adjacent to L98+00-N from 99+00-E to 99+80-E. Chalocpyrite and pyrrhotite mineralization, which is contained in outcrop and large angular float, is comprised of fine disseminations and sub l cm blobs in amounts that range up to 1 007o by content in selected hand specimens. A total of seven (7) samples (table #2)were assayed for Cu-Ni-Pt-Pd-Au by Accurassay Labs of Thunder Bay. Pt, Pd and Au values were obtained by fire assay with an atomic finish. Cu and Ni values were determined by partial digestion in an acid solution and analyzed by atomic absorption. Assay certificates are appended as Appendix II.

Five (5) samples (14162 - 66) of mineralized outcrop and float from the main mineralized zone averaged Q.24% Cu, Q.29% Ni, 31 ppb Pt and 27 ppb Pd. A sample containing disseminated Cpy and Po (14167) collected from a 6.0 meter long blast trench north of the main mineralized zone assayed Q.23% Cu, Q.16% Ni, ^5 ppb Pt and 25 ppb Pd.

CONCLUSION AND RECOMMENDATIONS

Further exploration should be designed to follow up and if possible to expand on the tantalum bearing pegmatite discovery. Prospecting all claims for pegmatite clues, specially near and along the granite contact is important to complete immediately. Geological mapping of all claims in the group would be important to provide a better understanding of the relationship of the pegmatites to the host rocks. To locate the bedrock source of the boulders found on the grid an investigation should be conducted to attempt to determine the nature and depth of overburden and depth of the watertable to evaluate if overburden stripping is a viable alternative program. If the stripping program is deemed to be not viable, a short diamond drill program could be utilized to confirm the bedrock location of the pegmatite.
