The Magnetite contains high grade 62% Iron Ore. Based on
current (January, 2013) spot market prices for Iron Ore and
calculating grade, tonnage and utilizing a conservative 75%
recovery rate, the Iron Ore contained in each deposit has a present
market value as follows:

Analysis and updating of the information set out in various
reports produced and written on the IGP Project, including a PEA
(Preliminary Economic Assessment) indicate that a profitable
mining, recovery and processing operation for the Magnetite is
currently feasible. Local and international markets for the Ore
mined from the IGP Project are readily available and easily
accessible.
Each of the four IGP deposits also contain significant gold and
platinum values as well as additional high value industrial
minerals. Reports are being examined relating to the additional
constituent minerals and the grade and value for each one will be
released upon further analysis and confirmation.
About Trulan's IGP-Iron-Gold-Platinum Project
Trulan entered into an agreement to acquire a 100% interest in
the IGP Iron Gold Platinum Project ("IGP" or the "Project")
in the IV Region – Region de Coquimbo – of Chile in February, 2013. The relatively small
region has a long history of mining and several operations are
currently in production, including the Los Pelambres Deposit, which
is the world's fifth largest copper mine.
The IGP Project totals 885 Hectares (2,186 Acres) of wide spread
mineralization and ore bodies that contain high grades of Iron,
Gold, Platinum and other high value industrial minerals. There are
eight known deposits in close proximity which have been tested to
the point where an Indicated Ore resource has been delineated.
There are four ore bodies within the Project area with an Indicated
Reserve in excess of 247 Million Metric Tons. Each of the four
deposits have not been fully tested to determine ultimate size and
they all remain open on all sides and at depth. Further exploration
beyond the zones outlined to date is needed to realize the full
extent of the mineralization and total size of the Ore bodies.
Trulan Resource's Mission is the exploration and development of
mining properties whose economic potential is considered to be
extensive, while requiring minimal infrastructure and operational
costs, that can be advanced in an environmentally responsible
manner.
