May 24, 2024 (Nazha Sabiri) - Gold is associated with two gold bearing quartz vein zones that are 0.6 to 1.5 m wide and 18 to 42.6 m long, these zones has been trenched and drilled. High uranium readings are associated with Timiskaming conglomerates, tuffaceous greywackes as well as mafic syenite boulders. The radioactive zone is described to be 1 m to 2 m wide and about 488 m long. (Lovell, H.L. PV016).

May 24, 2024 (Nazha Sabiri) - Best gold assays from 1939 drill holes include: 0.11 oz/ton Au over 0.9 m, 0.09 oz/ton Au over 0.9 m form quartz veined feldspar porphyry. 0.27 to 0.88 oz/ton Au over 0.3 m and 0.05 oz/ton au over 0.5 m in quartz veined, fine grained mafic syenite, near its contact with feldspar porphyry. Best sample assay for uranium was 0.22% U3O8 (radiometric?) (Lovell, H.L. PV016).
