SCHEDULE "C"
FOR THE FIRST QUARTER ENDING JANUARY 31, 1999
The Directors of Nu-Dawn Resources Inc. report on the Company's affairs for the
first quarter of 1999.
The weak commodity markets in the world has dramatically affected the junior
resource industry. Financing for these companies has been extremely hard to come
by; Nu-Dawn has been no exception. However, we have managed to overcome some
horrific obstacles during the past year, and we now look forward to improving
our lot over the next year.
A civil action in which the defendants also included some of the directors of
Nu-Dawn, an attorney who acted for the Company and the Province of British
Columbia was finally settled out of court last September. Nu-Dawn was able to
pledge its Salmo land and mill machinery to secure its share of the settlement.
With this burden lifted, the Company is looking forward to furthering its
projects.
Nu-Dawn concentrated a good part of its efforts over the past year on the
Abitibi project in Quebec. Positive progress was made with an International
Trading Company to market the chrysotile fibre to the Asian markets. Marketing
is a key component in putting together the financing for the Abitibi project.
Last October, we were advise by the Trading Company to put the project on hold
until the financial conditions in the Orient improve.
Minera Oceanica S.A., a Costa Rican affiliate company, has entered into a
partnership agreement with a native peoples Mining Co-op in Costa Rica to
explore a large mineralized area comprised of 60 square kilometres which is
located on their reserve. The Mining Co-op has made application for exploration
permits to be issued by the Mines Department. The Minister is supporting this
application and he has requested from his legal advisors the interpretation of
the laws governing the land of Indigenous people, and if the present statutes
allow the ministry to issue the permits. A decision on this matter is expected
in the next few months. A favourable decision will bring to Nu-Dawn a huge
project that for many years has been sought after by some of the world's largest
mining companies.
This past month, your directors have been made aware of new technology that
recovers zinc and lead from oxide ores. Nu-Dawn's Salmo property in British
Columbia has several zones of zinc/lead oxide ore. One of these zones, which is
accessible from the underground workings, has 100,000 tons of proven ore and
100,000 tons of probable ore, grading 12% zinc and 4% lead. We are presently,
along with others, investigating the amenability of this ore to the new
metallurgical process.
The state of the mineral industry has prompted the Company to research other
enterprises which we believe will be more attractive to investors at this time.
To this end, your directors are studying a new building concept to manufacture
prefab homes. This is an exciting project, and our investigations are expected
to be completed within the next two months.
