INITIAL GEOLOGICAL REPORT
San Rafael Copper, Iron, Gold Prospect

Province of Negros Occidental, Philippines

San Rafael Copper, Iron, Gold Prospect
Located at Barangay San Rafael,
Municipality of Hinoba-an,
Province of Negros Occidental, Philippines
By: Infinite AAA Resources and Mining Corporation
The Iron, copper prospect consist of 500 more or less hectares under the Exploration Permit Application for which 5.0 hectares have been granted Small Scale Mining Permit by the Local government.
To assist the investor decision to operate the mining property in the locality, an initial geological survey was conducted to validate the iron, copper potential deposit located in the above mentioned mining prospect. The survey was conducted by the Technical Staff of AAA Infinite Corporation.
Fieldwork mainly involved a brief study on the underlying rock types, outcrops of copper, iron in the locality - Economic field exploration data. Quality test of ore warrants its commercial viability for direct shipment ore.
Grateful acknowledgement of officials of Barangay San Rafael and the officers of AAA Infinite Mining Corporation for their invaluable support extended during the field investigation.
LOCATION AND CLIMATE
The claimed areas which comprise the San Rafael Copper Iron Property are situated in Barangay San Rafael, Municipality of Hinoba-an, Negros Occidental.
This property is on the north eastern most shore of Sulu Sea, on the west the City of Sipalay.
The rainy season extend from September through January and although Hinoba-an is on the typhoon belt, precipitation is continuous and averages fourteen inches rainfall during the wet season.
ACCESSIBILITY AND ROAD CONDITIONS
The project area is approximately 145 road kilometer fro Bacolod City, 2 hour and 30 minute travel for all kind of vehicles on a first class road going to the project, thence, 1 km. going to the mine site from the barrio San Rafael and both road are passable during rainy days. The project proponent together with the local government of the barrio is maintaining this road.
Considering that the iron ore (hematite ) will be directly transported to the proponent buyer, the ore will be then shipped to the end user’s destination through the nearest shipping port at Hinoba-an, some 18 kilometers away from the mining site on a domestic and international.

PRELIMINARY GEOLOGICAL REPORT
The area evaluate is mainly underlain by medium to coarse grained diorite occurring as the xenolithic bodies intercalated sequence of metamorphosed volcanic, and sediments. The mapped sediment is on the southern section of the mineral claim.
The intersection of north - north western trending fault are the most possible passage of mineralized solutions that form veins, fracture filling and disseminated type of sulphide mineralization.
The volcanic sequence noted in various metamorphic zoning. This rock unit is apparently closer to the intrusive, while the sediments pattern seems further because it is partly responded and the reaction of this unit is mainly on the lower temperature scale, the metamorphic zoning is the best possible and favorable depositional site of the massive sulphide metal.
Alanaban Gold Prospect
The area is largely underlain by thick sequence of clastic rocks, overlain locally by the transgresive pyroclasteic young volcanic units, with sometimes associated with basic intermediate lava lows, these arkosic and quartzitic clastic locally intruded by the diorite.
Upper Alin Copper Prospect
In the vicinity of the area, a widespread metamorphic sequence of volcanic and sedimentary unit were intruded by the hornblende diorite and underlain unconformable by the young volcanic sequence and sediments.
Both type of sulfide mineral are superficially manifested by the widespread and thick malachite, azurites stains. This type of mineral is noted by highly magnetic attraction of rocks.
Lower Ali Copper Iron Prospect
The area mapped noted for moly, iron, and copper minerals, it is perfectly bedded, moderately contorted, both footwall and hanging wall also noted the disseminated of sulfide minerals and in rich of copper stains are dominant oxidation. These may be the reaction of cupriferous sulfides.
Assay result of grab sample showed value of 2.5 % Cu. and 31% Fe.
STRUCTURE
Fold structure in the region generally trend almost parallel to sub-parallel to the Philippine fault system, clearly indicative of the drag affect by the oblique to a left lateral structure.
Regional fault complement the NW – SE trending major structure, These formation is consist of andesitic to basaltic flows intercalated with basic clastic rocks associated with minor cherty horizon, fine pyroclastic rocks and elongated patches with locally metamorphosed quartz feldspar amphibolites schists. The basalts are porphyritic pyroxene – rich which occur as stubby crystals, amyglaloidal textures, dark to greenish in colors, The andesites have pale to dark gray color, fine graind groundmass, with elongated hornblende crystals which is very rare, pyroxenes also noted, The conglomerate has noted a rounded clast of andesites and some basalts too. The greywacke appears to be conglomeratic in places of andesites some microdiorite dikes.
IRON ORE DEPOSITS
The iron deposit at Barrio San Rafael was explored on early 2009, a few trenches at some favorable area were noted during the investigation, The approximate center of the scattered outcrops is at south western section of Alin River- The scattered iron deposits directly rest on Plio – Pleistocene, The mineral assemblage is essentially limonite varyingly massive, porous and sometimes as boxworks. At the area, further to southeast iron floats were noted with conretionary limonite sparsely embedded in soil cover.
Adjacent area were also mapped and part of the examination, it is located southwest and northeast of the claimed area these area is strewn and found a foot to a meter fragments of purely burnt rocks and hardened hollow concretions are observed. These iron deposits were presumable derived from thermal springs in the region. Probably some were transported to their present locations.
REMARKS
. Pictures of out-crop in surveyed area were taken for references
. Five grab samples foe assay Au. Cu. Fe
. During the activity, there were portions of the upper and lower elevation were not cover the initial investigation due to the limited time not enough to cover the mapped mineralized zones.
