Mr. William Glasier reports
SURFACE MAPPING AND 37 ASSAYED OUTCROP SAMPLES COMPLETED BY EDWARD BRYANT, CONSULTING GEOLOGIST, FOR THE 49 GOLDEN REPEAT CLAIMS AT MIDAS, NV
Mill Bay Ventures Inc. has received encouraging results from 37 rock chip samples collected by Edward Bryant in March, 2006. The 37 rock chip samples were taken from various parts of the property and returned assays as high as 100 parts per billion gold.
Mr. Bryant notes widespread propylitic alteration, as well as quartz-calcite veining, silicification, and anomalous gold and trace element assays on the Golden Repeat project, is indication of a gold-bearing, mineralizing event. The project's proximity and geologic similarity to known commercial gold deposits further suggest such an event.
Mr. Bryant recommends further work be done and has proposed an $85,000 (U.S.) program consisting of additional sampling and mapping, along with an extensive mobile metal ion survey.
The foregoing technical information has been compiled by Mr. Bryant, consulting geologist, a qualified person pursuant to National Instrument 43-101. Mr. Bryant's technical report can be found on the website under projects, Golden Repeat claims, Nevada, or SEDAR in Stockwatch.

2. mapping to one-inch-to-500-feet scale showing claims and topography; and
3. collecting up to 100 rock chip samples for assay.
Phase two -- further work (based on observations of phase one):
1. geochemical survey; and
