Item 1.  Description of Registrant’s Securities to be Registered.


Description.


This Form 8-A12B hereby registers the Registrant’s class of common shares without par value (the “Common Shares”).  The authorized capital of the Registrant consists of 100,000,000 Common Shares, and the Registrant has no other class of shares.  As at August 7, 2007, the Registrant had 9,586,639 fully paid and non-assessable Common Shares issued and outstanding; 1,592,827 common share purchase options outstanding; and 1,779,950 common share purchase warrants outstanding. An additional 250,000 common shares have been reserved for issuance under a property acquisition agreement.


All Common Shares rank equally as to (i) voting rights, (ii) dividend rights, and (iii) participation in a distribution of the assets of the Registrant in the event of a liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the Registrant. In the event of a liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the Registrant or other distribution of its assets, holders of the Common Shares will be entitled to receive, on a pro rata basis, all of the net assets remaining after the Registrant has discharged its liabilities.


Distributions in the form of dividends, if any, are determined by the Board of Directors. Dividends are not cumulative. The Registrant is limited in its ability to pay dividends on its Common Shares by certain provisions of the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia) relating to the sufficiency of the profits from which dividends may be paid. The Registrant has not historically paid dividends on its Common Shares, nor does it expect to do so in the foreseeable future.


Holders of Common Shares are entitled to receive notice of all meetings of shareholders and to attend and to vote at such meetings. Each Common Share carries with it the right to one vote, and the Common Shares do not have cumulative voting, pre-emptive, purchase or conversion rights. There are no sinking fund provisions in relation to the Common Shares and holders of Common Shares are not liable to further calls or to assessment by the Registrant.


The rights of holders of Common Shares may not be modified otherwise than by a vote of a majority of the Common Shares outstanding, voting as a class.


There are no provisions in the Registrant’s Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws that would have the effect of delaying, deferring, or preventing a change in control of the Registrant.


Item 2.  Exhibits.


The following exhibits are filed herewith, or are incorporated by reference, as a part of this Form 8-A12B:
