Mar 19, 2012 (A McKee) - 2005 Drilling outlined two general zones. Zone 'A' best intercept is 2.2 g/t Au over 6 m. gold occurs within silicified and serictic alteration of the granite. Higher gold values tend to be associated with silicification which occurs both as narrow veins and veinlets as well as pervasive silica Zone 'B' gold generally occurs within discrete veinlets with assays up to 23.87 g/t Au over 0.2 m .Visible gold was noted in DH M05-3 and M05-14. Appears to be related to a shear zone. (taken from AF RL0987) 2021: Drilling was targeting known mineralization with plans to extend it. Gold mineralization is hosted within quartz-tourmaline veinlets. Significant assays include 23.10 g/t Au over 1 m from MK-21-018 and 59.80 g/t Au over 1 m from MK-21-019 (Nexus Gold Corp, corporate presentation, May 2021).
