Jul 02, 2015 (R Degagne) - Diamond drilling intersected a sequence of intermediate metavolcanics, and syenite. The syenitic body, locally termed the 'Dale Intrusive', is peanut-shaped and intrudes east northeast striking, steeply south dipping, and south facing weakly metamorphosed (greenschist or lower metamorphic facies except marginal to the Dale Intrusive, where a contact metamorphic aureole of amphibolite grade is developed) volcanic rocks of the (Archean) Kinojevis Group near the east striking Porcupine-Destor Fault Zone.

Jul 02, 2015 (A Wilson) - Anomalous overburden gold values were encountered in 15 of the 35 drill holes, the highest of which was 150 ppb in DDH NH-84-10. Bedrock samples of 7 of the 15 anomalous OVD were analyzed for gold. Thes values ranged from a low of 30 ppb to a high of 120 ppb. Copper, lead and zinc values range from 11 ppm to 162 ppm in NH-84-26, 7 to 278 ppm in NH-84-34 and 9 to 121 ppm in NH-84-27.
Dec 07, 2005 (R Degagne) - Visible gold is associated with blebby pyrite within a 1 cm wide siliceous fracture which is hosted by variably altered (orange feldspar altered, chloritic, and pyritic) hornblende syenite.
