Mineralization Comments

Nov 14, 2008 (D Draper) - Grab samples collected in 2004 returned gold values from the North of Old Highway showing ranging from 0.042 opt to 4.215 opt gold. The follow-up channel samples returned values from 0.030 opt over 5.0 feet (1.031 g/t over 1.524 m) to 0.199 opt over 3.0 feet (6.839 g/t over 0.914 m). Channel samples which were on both sides of the high grade grab sample returned 0.093 opt and 0.199 opt gold. The northerly trending quartz stringer with sulphide mineralization located north of the water filled pit returned values of 0.057 opt gold over 2.0 feet (1.956 g/t gold over 0.61m) and 0.030 opt gold over 5.0 feet (1.031 g/t gold over 1.524 m). (T-5092)


Apr 26, 2019 (A Wilson) - Significant assays from the 2007 diamond drilling program include 2.57 g/t gold over 2.79 m in CP-07-7 from sample of gabbro wallrock and aplite margin (T-5631).
