3Focus on Production in 2006
- UC Resources is rapidly advancing in Mexico to
acquire an asset base of high quality silver and
gold production assets with significant upside on
their exploration potential. It is my personal
objective that UC Resources will become a
producer of silver gold in 2006. - Richard J. Hamelin,
- President / CEO
4Why Mexico?
- Mexico is one of the worlds largest silver
producers and industry experts remain bullish on
future supply and demand curves for both gold and
silver. - Extraordinary market appreciation is being
realized by Canadian producers and explorers in
Mexico. - Mexicos Sierra Madre Mining Belt hosts numerous
major discoveries by other Canadian explorers
like Gammon Lake, Kimber, First Majestic, Western
Silver, Alamos, Mine Finders, and Endeavour
Silver.

11Copalquin Map
12Copalquin Results
- 2004/2005 Phase I
- High-grade and low-grade silver and gold
encountered, indicative of a major
epithermal-type deposit - 2005/2006 Phase II
- Drilling clearly showed that alteration and
silicification associated with the epithermal
system is pervasive and extensive - 50 ounces/tonne silver and 1.4 ounces/tonne gold
over 5 metre intersection at La Soledad target
13Comparables to UC Resources Ltd.
14Compelling Comparables
- Results and Geology of Copalquin in Phase I II
are very comparable to early results of other
Epithermal Systems in Mexico by - Gammon Lake (Ocampo Project)
- Kimber Resources (Monterde Discovery)
- Alamos Gold Inc. (Mulatos Discovery)
- Minefinders Corp. Ltd. (Dolores Discovery)
- Silver Wheaton Gold Corp.
- Gammon Lake has reported a deposit containing an
estimated 8 million ounces of gold equivalent
