The projects he has worked on and/or supervised have been located in Canada, mainly B.C., western United States, Mexico, other Latin American countries, Africa, and southeast Asia.The type of mineral deposits have been all types including porphyry copper, epithermal, other vein types, and placer.The work has involved a wide variety of geophysics, geology, geochemistry and diamond drilling.The geophysics has included induced polarization (IP), resistivity, seismic refraction, seismic reflection, gravity, self potential, ground penetrating radar (GPR) as well as ground and airborne magnetics, electromagnetics and radiometrics.

Though the bulk of his work is mining exploration geophysics, he also does geotechnical geophysics and environmental geophysics.These projects have included potential dam sites for BC Hydro, highway location studies such as the Coquihalla and contaminant studies.

Mr. Mark is a member of the Association of Professional Engineers and Geoscientists of the Province of British Columbia as a Professional Geoscientist (P. Geo.).

The Company has amended 750,000 stock options by extending the expiry date by one year to September 15, 2007.Pursuant to the Company's stock option plan, the Company has granted 450,000 new options with an exercise price of $.10 per share expiring March 1, 2007.

Based on the positive results of the initial soil sampling, three additional claims have been acquired by computer online staking increasing the size of the AVA property to 1,872.6 hectares.

Induced Polarization chargeability anomalies were discovered on the Monarch Zone of the Wood Group Property by Geotronics Surveys Ltd. in late 2002 and early 2003 (Geophysical Report on IP and Resistivity Surveys on the Monarch Zone, David G. Mark, P.Geo, August 27, 2003).During these surveys two strong chargeability anomalies (A and B), and a weaker IP anomaly 200 metres southeast of anomaly B, were identified by Mr. David Mark, P.Geo. (see Lakewood Mining Ltd.News Release September 16 2003).

Two drill-holes were recommended for this zone by Mr. David Mark, P.Geo, but at the end of this drill program had remained undrilled.
