("Tanager" or the "Corporation") is pleased to advise that it has engaged Mr. Ike Osmani, President and Chief Geologist of FGC Inc. to complete a compilation report on Tanager’s Burchell Lake gold, copper and molybdenum claims located 100 kilometres west of Thunder Bay, Ontario. Tanager’s Burchell Lake property is bounded by properties owned by Moss Lake Gold Mines Ltd. on the west and Birch Hill Gold Corp. (formerly Foundation Resources Inc.) on the north. Following evaluation of the compilation report, a 2014 work program for the 5984 hectare property will be developed.
