Mar 11, 2008 (Mark Puumala) - This discretionary occurrence is based on anomalous copper assays reported by Willoughby (1986) from Greenstrike Gold Corporation diamond drill hole GS-86-1. A 30 cm section of semi-massive sulphides hosted within vuggy argillite assayed 2390 ppm Cu. This mineralization appears to be similar to that reported nearby in Placer Dome Canada diamond drill hole numbers 524-002 (MDI000000000487) and 524-009 (MDI000000000488).
