11/13/2020 (T Pettigrew) - In 1983, Goldquest stripped, mapped (1:100) and sampled this zone. Best assays over about a 60-meter length occurred in narrow E-W trending quartz veins averaging 20 cm but ranging from a hairline to 36 cm in width. Coarse visible gold (VG) as specks was observed locally as is arsenopyrite, pyrite and pyrrhotite (Assessment report 20000014758). Samples returned assays of 0.12 to 0.40 oz/t Au (4.11 to 13.71 g/t Au) and 0.40 oz/t Ag (13.71 g/t Ag) (Assessment report 20000005312).
