Jogran Mines Ltd. conducted a Geophysical survey by Magnetometer and Electromagnetic methods in 1964. Based on the findings of this Geophysical Report and other data contained a preliminary Diamond Drilling Program, for a minimum 2500 footage to be expended in six holes was recommended. This diamond drilling program occurred in 1964 and was expanded to twelve holes totalling 5437 feet following on the findings and intersecting of copper sulphide mineralization. A further program involving five holes for 2500 feet was suggested. Hole no. 12 was completed to 500 feet by the end of 1964. In 1965 continuous drilling from holes No. 13 to no. 21 were completed. These nine holes were llocated or positioned to intersect geophysical data and geological suppositions. Therefore, a grand total of 11, 135 feet of diamond drilling in 21 holes was completed. In 1966 Phelps-Dodge Corp. of Canada Ltd. conducted and IP survey

Jun 22, 2007 (A Pace) - A fault zone in Archean mafic metavolcanics, strking N70W, and dipping 90, is filled by carbonate-quartz veins which carry chalcopyrite, pyrite and hematite. Hole No. 12 is a vertical hole to a depth of 500 feet. This hole was drilled for the purpose of determining and or disproving tha attitude of known copper mineralization previously cut in hole No. 3 (17.5 feet @ 1.73% copper at 290 foot vertical depth below the collar of No. 1); in Hole No. 7 (48 feet @ 0.50% copper at 318 to 357 feet vertical depth); and in hole No. 8 (30.5 feet @ 0.264% copper at 333 to 355 foot vertical depth.) Some of the best copper intervals in Hole No. 12 are: 41.5 ft @ 0.272% 24.5 ft @ 0.205% 20 ft @0.332% 3 ft @ 0.45% 6 ft @ 0.25% 5.5 ft@ 0.21% 5.5 ft @ 4.03% The hole also intersected the postulated north-south fault at 475 to 497 feet, in keeping with the pre-determined dip of 60 to 75 degrees to the east.
