The Hit Property is located in central Yukon Territory, 27 kilometres north-northeast of MacMillan Pass and west of the Yukon/NWT border. The project targets skarn/replacement gold mineralization associated with Tombstone-Suite intrusives and surrounding sediments. Property highlights include intrusive-related gold mineralization which returned an average of 7.85 g/t gold over 7.0 metres in trenches.

2011 Exploration

Aben has engaged TerraLogic Exploration Inc. of Cranbrook, BC to oversee all aspects of the 2011 exploration and drilling programs on the Company's Yukon and Northwest Territories projects.

Through TerraLogic, Aben has arranged for field crews, support staff, camps, supplies, helicopters and drill rigs to conduct the exploration planned for this year. Exploration work is expected to commence in early June depending on the rate of snow melt. The Company's estimated budget for its exploration programs on its properties this summer is approximately $5 million.

TerraLogic Exploration is a subsidiary of Eagle Plains Resources and provides exploration and geologic consulting services to the mining and exploration industry. The company has been operating mineral exploration projects in North America since 1992 and has extensive experience up in the Yukon and Northwest Territories. TerraLogic has worked for some notable companies including Teck and BP.

Tim J. Termuende, P.Geo., is a director and the Qualified Person for Aben Resources as defined by National Instrument 43-101 and has reviewed and approved the technical information in this project section.

The property was acquired from and past exploration was carried out by Eagle Plains Resources (TSX-V: EPL), a reporting issuer and other unrelated operators. The Company has not yet completed the work necessary to verify these past exploration results and since these results are historical in nature and some results predate National Instrument 43-101 standards, these results should not be relied upon.
