Point Location Description: Approximate
Location Method: Field Visit with GPS
Access Description: The property is accessed by travelling from Dryden south along Hwy. 502 for approx. 40km. the Domtar logging road (Desare) runs west from Hwy. 502. Approx. 800 meters west along the Desare road is a north trending ATV trail which provides excellent access to north portion of the grid. (Kenora AF 52F10SE AA-3)
2008 - The Night Danger target was identified during the Canadian Arrow 2008 VTEM Airborne Survey in the Turtlepond Lake Area; it is new and has no previous exploration history. 2009 - Drill testing determined that the target definitely met MDI occurrence criteria.

Province: Superior
Geological Age: Precambrian
Mar 05, 2010 (J Bongfelt) - 'The well pronounced anomaly, detected on two adjacent 100 metre spaced flight lines, is situated in a swampy area with no surface exposure. Diamond drill hole ND-09-1 intersected two separate intervals of sulphide mineralization between 63.45 and 88.05 metres down the hole. Narrow sections of up to 1.3% Nickel are contained within the lower sulphide horizon.' (News Release - Jan.7/CNW/Canadian Arrow Mines, Ltd.) 'Satterly (Vol. L, Part 2, OEM Annual Report, 1941, Map No. 50e, The Dryden-Wabigoon Area) indicates that the present property is underlain by diorites, quartz-hornblende diorites, and some porphyritic biotite granodiorites that comprise the extreme eastern border zones of the very large Atikwa Batholith. Satterly's contact between the felsic to intermediate batholithic rocks, and a very thick pile of north-south striking, slightly metamorphosed, intermediate to mafic volcanic rocks occurs approximately 100m north of Emmons Lake. On Satterly's map gabbroic rocks occur in minor quantities immediately south of Emmons Lake, however later exploration work indicates that most of the rocks near Emmons Lake are mafic volcanic medium-grained gabbro, pyroxenite, peridotite and locally aplitic dikes and sills. The majority of the intrusive rocks which underly the property can be classified as border phases of the large Atikwa Batholith, which is centered some 30 kilometers to the west. The most recent mapping which covers the Emmons Lake area goes back to 1940 (Satterly, 1940).' (Kenora AF 52F/10SE AA-3) · 'Canadian Arrow Mines Ltd geologists identified the following rock types as underlying the property:' * See Kenora Assessment File 52F10SE AA-3 for this information re: aplitic dikes and sills, mafic volcanics, gabbro, pyroxenite-periodotite.
Mar 05, 2010 (J Bongfelt) - 'A nine metre wide section of stringers and blebs of sulphides assayed 0.57% Ni and 0.45% Cu. Two sections within this interval assayed greater than 1% nickel.' (News Release - Jan.7/CNW/Canadian Arrow Mines, Ltd.)
