Dec 07, 2005 (D Laidlaw) - Trench samples average 0.01 to 0.02% U3O8 (radiometric). Best assay was 0.06% U3O8 over 3 feet.
Apr 10, 2024 (Nazha Sabiri) - Samples, with higher radiometric values were assayed by chemical method and returned assay ranging from 0.02% up to 0.045% U3O8. The best radiometric assay for thorium was 0.14% ThO2 in a six-foot sample in trench J. (31D09NW0006). Allanite in granitic rock is reported at Lat. 44.700, Long. 78.333 in a location called Silanco (OFR5311).
