Point Location Description: Main trench and property centre.
Location Method: Conversion from MDI
Access Description: Drive N from Northbrook to Hwy 506 and go E to Myers Cave Road. Drive 9.1 km to a gated dirt road (Norway Lake Lane) on the left. Follow this for 500 m to a creek then drive 100 m to a road on the left. Take this to a beaver pond on the right. Just past the beaver pond, on the right, should be a trench.
Prospecting in late 1800s and early 1900s; many test pits and shafts in the area. Part of the Hardie property was known as the Gough Claims. In 1938 extensive trenching was carried out on the S zone. 1970: some trenching and stripping. 1980-83: trenching and 9 DDh (142 m) with assays by Hardie. 1984: Grandad Resources carried out mag, VLF-EM and IP surveys and drilled 10 holes (914.1 m, stored at the RGP core library).

Province: Grenville
Subprovince: Central Metasedimentary Belt
Terrane: Mazinaw
Formation Group: Flinton Group
Geological Age: Mesoproterozoic
Metamorphism Grade: Mid-amphibolite
Dec 07, 2005 (D Laidlaw) - Two mineralized zones lie within the two lowermost formations of the Flinton Group: N- quartz-tourmaline-hematite veins within metasediments contain py, cp, minor td and sp along a 300 m long sheared contact with narrow quartz veins. S - quartz-calcite-tremolite veins, discontinuous for about 300 m within dolomites, contain td, as, sp, cp, boulangerite and lesser py and tourmaline. Assays range from trace to 5.7 oz/t Au and Ag up to 46.75 oz/t.

Geologist: Mateo Dorado-Troughton
Notes: Trenches and pits were located and samples were collected. The North and South zones within the Flinton Group's Myers Cave and Bishops Corners formation were identified. The two zones appear to be two parallel, shear-zone hosted quartz-carbonate vein systems. One in the basal Bishops Corners formation, and one in the dolomitic marble of the Myers Cave formation.
