Jan 30, 2015 (Therese Pettigrew) - The property is underlain by the Dome Stock. The Dome Stock dominantly comprises porphyritic granodiorite which is texturally massive. Minor areas of the stock are quartz monzonite to granite in composition. The granodiorite is grey to pinkish grey and coarse-grained. In areas of intense shearing and adjacent to quartz veins and dykes, the granodiorite is commonly altered to a dark grey as a result of chloritization and silicification (2014 NI 43-101 report).

Jan 30, 2015 (Therese Pettigrew) - 01/29/2015 (T Pettigrew) - The Central Zone is located in the north-eastern part of the East My-Ritt claim block (KRL 404) and entirely within the granodiorite of the Dome Stock. Massive granodiorite is composed primarily of feldspar with secondary quartz and minor amphibole, biotite and pyrite. There are minor mafic dykes throughout the unit with sheared contacts with the granodiorite. Locally the granodiorite is sheared or strongly foliated. Within the sheared and foliated, sericite-altered zones, quartz veins are present with a few specks of visible gold. The majority of the sulphides are composed of pyrite, but there are rare occurrences of chalcopyrite (2014 NI 43-101 report).
