The Trails End Gold Mine lies on the western side of the Bradshaw Mountains in central Arizona. The Trails End Mine Property hosts a large quartz vein running approximately 4-8 feet wide on surface over a strike length of approximately 10,500 feet. There are two known ore shoots that have only seen limited mining despite high gold grades within the mine workings. Sampling by Alliance averaged .51 ounces/ton Au from twenty chip samples. The previous operators were a father and son team who were mining high grade zones and milling at very low volumes so they had no reason to delineate ore shoots. Their mining activities ended in the 1990's when the owners traded the mine for real estate holdings in California. Alliance mining acquired the property when previous owners failed to renew the mineral claims on time with the Bureau of Land Management. Alliance mining is planning to delineate the known ore mineralized zones and drilling the length of the vein to locate other ore shoots that may be present along strike. The only known mine workings (ore shoots) on the property are adjacent to a forestry road that cuts through the property at those locations. Seeing most of the Trails End Quartz Vein structure is remote and not accessible with no known previous drilling helps support the fact that other ore shoots may be present along strike. The property has great potential for also developing bulk tonnage resources. The Company plans to commence first phase drilling on the property by spring 2012.

The Gold Beetle property host ten large quartz veins from 6 feet to 60 feet. wide. Previous mine workings includes three adits and several shallow prospects within a granitic host rock. High grade gold grade values are found below surface in and between the main quartz veins within veinlets within the host granite rock. Assays taken have been up to 7.2 ounces of gold per ton. All quartz veins that have been tested at depth have been auferious. Very limited mining has occured in these adits although high grade mineralization is present and remain in place. Ore piles remain in one adit. These old mine workings which indicate a quick mine closure which may have been due to war powers act of 1942. Due to the known mineralztion on the property may have potential for a large open pit resource. The Company is planning a 80 hole drill program to delineate both high grade mineralization near the mine workings and to see if mineralization is present between the quartz veins where sampling has indicated mineralization in the granite host rock. The Gold Beetle property has a very high potential of delineating a large low grade big tonnage resource near surface that may be ameanble to open pit mining.
The Gold Beetle #2 property is situated next to the Zonia Mine which host over 720 million lbs of Cu. The claims are within broken schist with weak to strong pervasive silicification. The silicification of the schist produced hard resistant laminations up to two inches thick and local quartz veins about one-half inch thick. One outcrop exposes broken, silicified, laminated schist that strikes 045 degrees and dips about 85 degrees southeast. The outcrop is 60 feet wide contains quartz veinlets and is near a short adit oriented along the strike of the schist. Another outcrop of fractured silicified schist contains quartz veinlets for a length of 120 feet. A prospect trench on the property consists of fractured, silicified, laminated vertical schist with quartz veinlets over a length of 15 feet, with grab samples across 15 feet , 60 feet and 100 feet returning significant gold values indicating the potential for a bulk tonnage. Copper values have not been tested to date however copper hosting minerals are present. The zone of mineralization exposed on surface outcropping is approximately 100 meters wide and 600 meters long. Assaying results from sampling the width of the mineralized zone from selected veinlets of grab samples averaged 3.87g/t Au over 20 meters .The mineralized zone also indicate copper minerals present. Property has potential for a large low grade gold./copper deposit.
The Gold Pit Mine is located at the southern end of the Gold Chest Property.Geologically the property lies in an area of block faulting within the highly mineralized Transition Zone of Arizona. The property is underlain by Proterozoic age granitic rocks, and to the east there is a broad northeast-trending belt of Early Proterozoic age metavolcanic rocks and derived schists. The Gold Pit claim contains a caved shaft and adit within weathered and iron-altered granite with abundant oxides (goethite, limonite, manganese) and local quartz veinlets.
Locally there is strongly weathered granite with moderate limonite and weak hematite alteration, and the strike of the altered granite is towards the northeast. There is also broken granite with abundant sulfides, strong limonite staining, and bleaching. The strike of the altered zone appears to be toward the southwest and may intersect the zone of northeast-striking altered granite, and this relation suggests a significant favorable area for gold mineralization. The property is a polymetallic gold-bearing mineralized region with gold, silver, zinc, and lead, and further geological work of drilling is warranted at the mineralized zone apparent in the shaft and adit to test mineralization continuity and tto determine if the host rock is carrying any values. Theres potential for both higher grade and bulk tonnage.
The claim is situated within granite and granite porphyry with variable pervasive and vein-controlled silicification and iron alteration. A prospect pit on the property is within broken porphyritic granite with moderate pervasive silicification and quartz veins, and strong limonite and hematite alteration. The veins are vertical and strike 275 degrees. Another prospect pit is within fractured granite which exposes as gouge zone two feet wide containing quartz veins six inches thick. The granite shows strong limonite alteration and is near a shaft with a 12-feet-wide quartz vein on the surface. A mining dump pile on the property consists of quartz vein pieces up to six inches long that contain oxidized sulfide minerals, strong limonite alteration, chalcopyrite, and visible gold.
The granite-hosted quartz veins on the Golden Eagle claim are well-developed, steeply dipping, and contain evidence of gold, silver, and copper mineralization. They do not appear to have been subject to any modern gold exploration and represent a good exploration target. Prospective veins can be defined by geological mapping and geochemical sampling, followed by trenching and drilling. There is also potential for other veins and possible porphyry-style intrusive-hosted gold-silver-copper mineralization on the property.Therefore the property also has potential for a large porphyry deposit.
Geologically the property lies in an area of block faulting within the highly mineralized Transition Zone of Arizona. The property is underlain by Proterozoic age granitic rocks, and to the east there is a broad northeast-trending belt of Early Proterozoic age metavolcanic rocks and derived schists. Reported lithologies include quartz breccia with sericite matrix cut by fine fractures containing disseminated to small aggregates of pyrite, chalcopyrite and galena. There is also strongly oxidized, cemented fault breccia with some remnant disseminated pyrite. The Gold mineralization is associated with precious-metal bearing veins of several ages. Many of the veins are hosted by granitic rocks and schist, and historically have been mined by small scale underground operations. Economic grades probably still remain in ore shoots within both oxidized and unoxidized portions of these veins. These areas may represent good targets for both small-scale selective mining with great potential to delineate a large bulk tonnage 43-101 compliant resource.
The Bodie Mine lies on the western side of the Bradshaw mountains what we call the “ Eastern Placerita Region” and consist of three lode mineral claims. Historic reports obtained up to 1946 have indicated that the mine was producing very high grades of lead 40% and carrying high silver values of 60 oz/ton. Mining was taking place on several levels in a 335 foot shaft and in other Adits located on the property. One drift in the shaft is stated to have been 1675 feet long. The claims were patented decades ago but have since reverted back to standard lode mining claims. The mine is believed to have closed due to falling metal prices after the end of the Second World War. No other “known” exploration are mining have taken place on this property since 1946. The Property is near the Company's Trails End Gold Mine.
The Boston Arizona Property suppose to contain gold, silver, copper, zinc, and lead mineralization within an adit over 1000 feet long that was developed with several stations and drifts according to historic reports. The host rocks are porphyritic diorite and Yavapai schist, and the veins are intersected at right angles with porphyry dikes. Portions of the gossan vein zone were reported to be up to 125 feet wide from hanging wall to footwall. There are also local intrusive schist dikes about six feet wide.
The gossan zones exhibit abundant hematite, goethite, and limonite, and are typically silicified. Numerous additional prospect, pits, and shallow shafts are developed on the property that expose fault zones, silicified schist, visible copper mineralization, and pervasive iron-oxide alteration.The company plans to carry out a three phase drilling plan once the company identifies the best drilling targets on the property. The property has potential for a large bulk tonnage deposit. The Boston Arizona Mine closed in 1955 due to low metal prices. The property has not sen any known exploration or drilling since its closure.
Gold Stella Property
The Gold Stella Property contains numerous large quartz veins and silicified stockworks over six feet wide within weathered and altered granitic host rocks. There are numerous quartz veins up to six feet thick, along with abundant black tourmaline, dark chlorite, and fine pyrite. There are many prospective quartz veins in this area that warrant further exploration.
The Gold Spring property was first explored in the early 1930’s and included development of underground workings. Gold mineralization at Gold Spring is hosted by a steeply dipping, southeast-trending schist zone with oxide seams and quartz streaks. The oxide material is typically enriched with higher gold values. Exploration reported from the 1930’s indicated gold mineralization was hosted within a schist zone up to 15 meters wide with a southeast trend. The Company found significant copper and gold values at the collar of the mine shaft. The property will be drilled in order to locate and delineate any high grade zones and bulk tonnage zones. The Gold Spring mine is along strike of the Gold Beetle #2 Mine and may be one very large mineralized structure as a young volcanic andesite flow covered the area in the valley between these two former mine sites. The Company will carry out a drilling program to see if mineraliztion is present below the volcanic flow.
