Point Location Description: UTM co-ordinates of drillhole collar

Location Method: Based on Assessment

Access Description: The property is located in the south east quadrant of Fripp Township, district of Cochrane, in Northeastern Ontario. It is situated approximately 25 km due south of the city of Timmins, directly adjacent to Pine Street South which bisects the claim. Access to the property at a point approximately 24.5 km south along Pine Street is gained by way of a logging road network which traverses westerly through the claim. Access to the drill hole collar location is then possible by traveling west along the same logging road for approximately 425 meters. (T-6133, p.3)
