Cautionary
Note to U.S. Investors concerning estimates of Indicated Mineral
Resources.
We
advise U.S. investors that while the term “indicated mineral resources” is
recognized and required by Canadian regulations, the U.S. Securities
and
Exchange Commission (“SEC”) does not recognize it. U.S. investors are
cautioned not to assume that any part or all of the mineral deposits
in
these categories will ever be converted into mineral
reserves.

Cautionary
Note to U.S. Investors concerning estimates of Inferred Mineral
Resources.
We
advise U.S. investors that while the term “inferred
mineral resources” is recognized and required by Canadian regulations, the
SEC does not recognize it. “Inferred mineral resources” have a great
amount of uncertainty as to their existence, and great uncertainty
as to
their economic and legal feasibility. It cannot be assumed that all
or any
part of an inferred mineral resource will ever be upgraded to a higher
category. In accordance with Canadian rules, estimates of inferred
mineral
resources cannot form the basis of feasibility or other economic
studies.
U.S. investors are cautioned not to assume that part or all of the
inferred mineral resource exists, or is economically or legally
minable.

Effective
December 31, 2006, the Mine is a 50/50 joint venture; therefore,
metal
sales, revenue and costs shown in the tables above represent Apollo’s 50%
share of the joint venture.
|
(2)
|
The
results shown for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2006
reflect Apollo’s 100% ownership of the Mine during that period.
Additionally, the mill at the Mine was shut down on May 12, 2006.
Up until
that point the Mine was milling low grade stockpiled
ore.
|
(3)
|
Metal
sales, revenue and costs for the first nine months of 2007 only includes
the seven months of March through September as milling was restarted
on
March 1, 2007 after being shut down since May 12,
2006.
