Exploration History

1966: The Sager family acquired freehold leases covering the old Diamond Gold Mine property. The Sager brothers, Albert and Gordon staked additional claims and by 1985 controlled 4,000 acres of mining rights. During this time, limited exploration work was conducted consisting of geological mapping, geophysical surveys, and diamond drilling on the property. 1985: W.J. Brown staked additional claims amounting to 840 acres. Fonteneau Resources Ltd., optioned the property (4,840 acres); a private company which transferred the option to Faith Mines Ltd., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Arbor Resources Ltd. (H.J. Bergmann, Rpt., File 104, Madoc Twp., 1987). 1995: W.J. Brown received an OPAP grant and conducted geochemical and geophysical surveying, prospecting and diamond drilling (OP95-377, 2.16956, Madoc files 128, 133). 2000: Stripping and prospecting by W.J. Brown (Madoc file 144, 2.20812).
