May 04, 2010 (J Suma-Momoh) - A sample (sample # 6885) of quartz vein with an estimated 2 % pyrite was collected from an old trench on the property by Phoenix Matachewan Mines Inc. in 2002. The sample returned 0.84 g/t gold. REF: Table 2, sample # 6885, in KL 5168.
Oct 08, 2014 (A Wilson) - A trench at east end showed a mineralized zone 4 ½ ft wide, striking N60W and dipping 30SW. Grab samples collected from the site by Hanna Mining Company Limited in 1975, returned values of 0.38 oz/t Au, 0.39 oz/t Au and 0.71 oz/t Au. A drill hole completed by Manville Canada in 1985 returned an assay of 0.38 oz/t Au over 1 ft. A grab sample collected by Phoenix Matachewan Mines Inc. returned 3.70 oz/t Au (sample 6824).
