Dec 07, 2005 (A Wilson) - Grab samples collected from the site in 1929 returned values as high as 1.13 oz/t Au over 6 inches and 0.16 oz/t Au over 4 ft. A channel sample collected from one of these veins returned an assay of 0.83 oz/t Au and 2.2 oz/t Ag over 0.5 ft. Seventeen samples reportedly taken by a Hollinger engineer showed an average of 0.197 oz/t Au across a width of 1.7 ft. A grab sample collected by Hollinger returned an assay of 1.04 oz/t Au and 4.35 oz/t Ag. Channel samples collected in 1996 returned assays up to 1.771 oz/t Au over 0.50 m.
