About the Company
Rambler was founded in 2004 when Altius Minerals Corporation ("Altius"), a Newfoundland and Labrador based
resource company, contributed to the Company's asset base an option to acquire and develop the Rambler
property.
The Rambler property had been a former underground copper and gold producing property that ceased production
when the deposit reached a then third party property boundary. This neighbouring property was subsequently
consolidated before being brought into the Company. The Company now owns a 100% interest in the property. The
principal activity of the Company is carrying out development and exploration on the Rambler Property, a
mineral exploration property located on Newfoundland and Labrador's Baie Verte Peninsula.
There are no further disclosures to be made regarding George Ogilvie in accordance with the AIM Rules.
