Item 4. Ownership

(a) Amount Beneficially Owned:
Taseko beneficially owns 15,145,908 common shares of the
Issuer. Beneficial ownership is comprised of 7,827,726 shares of the
Issuer held directly and 7,318,182 shares of the Issuer issuable upon
exercise of the warrants held by Taseko. Each warrant entitles Taseko to
purchase one additional common share of the Issuer at a price of CDN$1.80
per share until February 20, 2008.
Beneficial ownership is calculated in accordance with
Rule 13d-3 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Under Rule 13d-3, a
beneficial owner of a security includes any person who, directly or
indirectly, through any contract, arrangement, understanding,
relationship, or otherwise has or shares: (i) voting power, which includes
the power to vote, or to direct the voting of shares; and (ii) investment
power, which includes the power to dispose or direct the disposition of
shares. Certain shares may be deemed to be beneficially owned by more than
one person (if, for example, persons share the power to vote or the power
to dispose of the shares). In addition, shares are deemed to be
beneficially owned by a person if the person has the right to acquire the
shares (for example, upon exercise of an option) within 60 days of the
date as of which the information is provided. In computing the percentage
ownership of any person, the amount of shares outstanding is deemed to
include the amount of shares beneficially owned by such person (and only
such person) by reason of these acquisition rights. As a result, the
percentage of outstanding shares of any person as shown does not
necessarily reflect the person’s actual ownership or voting power with
respect to the number of shares of common stock actually outstanding as of
the date indicated.
(b) Percent of Class:
The 15,145,908 common shares of the Issuer beneficially
owned by Taseko represent approximately 11.8% of the Issuer’s common
shares, based upon 120,788,047 common shares of the Issuer outstanding as
at May 31, 2007 and as calculated in accordance with Rule 13d-3 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 .
(c) Power to Vote and Power to Dispose:
Taseko has the sole direct power to vote and direct the
disposition of all shares of the Issuer beneficially owned by
Taseko.

Item 5. Ownership of Five Percent or Less of a Class.
