Terrane: Eastern Wabigoon
Belt: Beardmore-Geraldton
Geological Age: Archean
Apr 05, 2022 (Therese Pettigrew) - The host rock in the project area comprises Archean-aged, metavolcanics known as the northern volcanic panel part of the larger Beadmore-Geraldton Greenstone Belt and is located where the panel appears to wrap northward around the Croll Lake Stock. Specifically, the bedrock comprises a suite of felsic, intermediate and mafic volcanics with gabbroic sills. Volcanic rock types include rhyolitic and andesitic flows, tuffs and breccias, chert, iron formation, minor metasedimentary and intrusive rocks. The more mafic units include basaltic and andesitic flows, tuffs and pillow basalts. The Croll Lake Stock comprises diorite through to granodiorite and syenite. The youngest bedrock includes the northwest-trending diabase dikes which are noted throughout the property and region. The metamorphosed mineralized zones are marked by silicification and sulphide mineralization including pyrite, pyrrhotite, galena and arsenopyrite found along contact zones or cross-cutting structures.

Apr 05, 2022 (Therese Pettigrew) - Grab sample 27 returned 0.26 oz/t Au from a quartz vein with minor sulphides (Assessment report 42E15SE8400). Grab sample 1 collected in 1991 returned 0.21% cu, 0.23% Zn, and 0.02 oz/t Au. Grab sample 3 returned 0.27% Cu and 0.03 oz/t Au (Assessment report 42E15SE8401). DDH GL-93-2 returned up to 9052 ppb Au and 155 ppm Cu over 1.53 m from a quartz vein with 1-2% pyrrhotite (Assessment report 42E15SE0014). Sampling done in 2008 returned up to 4.771 g/t Au from Trench 1, 2.597 g/t Au from Trench 3 (Assessment report 20000006048). Riverside's Trench #1 showed several shears, the largest being 3 m wide and exposed over an 80 m long strike within the trench. Two quartz-carbonate shears were sampled by Riverside in Trench #1. These shears are within mafic volcanic bedrock with sulphide mineralization primarily pyrrhotite and pyrite. Two of the five samples taken from this trench returned 19.7 and 31.9 g/t Au. Another sample 30 m to the east returned 6.9 g/t Au and an additional sample 275 m along trend returned 1 g/t Au. These Riverside samples are on trend with drill hole GL-93-2, drilled by Greater Lenora Resources Corp. in 1993. Riverside believes this drill intercept and the trench samples demonstrate a 400 m strike length for the HG Target (Riverside Resources press release July 29, 2019). DDH2022-02 returned 2.1 g/t Au over 6 m including 8.4 g/t Au over 1 m with visible gold (Riverside Resources press release June 15, 2022).
