Exploration History

from AFRI 42A01NE2062 File KL-0165 (circa 1946) shows a plan for 42' cribbed shaft on old claim # 39755 (now claim L-1046495). Assays indicated on the plan include S5.99 over 48" at 30' depth and 54.13 over 16"; S3.31 over 16". Both values were recorded at 42'depth. 1989 Tundra Gold Mines Limitedprogram of ground magnetic and VLF surveys (NAA and NSS), general prospecting, wajax stripping, and three diamond drill holes for a total footage of 1260'(or 3 84 metres). Mullan J. In June 1992, full grid mapping and prospecting were conducted, with additional fillin mapping conducted in late October. Mapping was concentrated in areas of geophysical interest (features to west - VLF anomalies) and near the original showings (i.e. Bourzk-Mondoux, "Saloman", Assad, Ansara) Prospecting was also directed to areas near the expected position of the Amikougami Lake and Amikougami Creek fault zones. This program highlighted the potential strike continuity of the showings over overburden covered areas as defined by numerous VLF conductors. In addition, asuite of samples were collected for whole rock analyses to investigate the possibility that the Blake River and Kinojevis Assemblages are separated by the Amikougami Lake Fault. No conclusive pattern showing this to be true was evident in the data. Due to the depressed junior mineral exploration industry and poor gold prices, no further exploration work was completed on the property until early 2003, when Golden Valley Mines Ltd. completed geophysical surveys and follow-up diamond drilling. 2003 Golden Valley Mines Ltd. Ground magnetic survey, 5 diamond drill holes totalling 510 m.
