| |  The wholly-owned Table Mountain gold mine is a high-grade, underground mining operation located in northern British Columbia. The historic Cassiar Gold Belt is a 23 kilometre long greenstone hosted quartz carbonate formation that stretches from Mount McDame in the north to Juniper Mountain in the southeast. The historic mining operations and McDame River have produced just over 500,000 ounces of gold from various mills and placer operations. Numerous small mines processed high-grade ore starting in 1934. This was followed in 1978 by larger-scale underground mining and processing, first as the Erickson gold mine, then the Cusac gold mine. During this period, mine operators opened 13 portals to access Table Mountain's widespread gold mineralization. The operation and support facilities at the Table Mountain gold mine, which shut down in October 2007, consist of a 300-ton-per-day, gravity flotation mill, power plant, assay laboratory and permitted tailings pond. Gold mineralization at Table Mountain is hosted in a greenstone quartz carbonate gold system that is typical of some of Canada's largest gold camps, including Timmins, Kirkland Lake and Val d'Or. Hawthorne plans to undertake a geological reconnaissance program in 2008 in anticipation of commencement of gold production in 2009.
