Aug 13, 2007 (A Wilson) - The drill hole intersected a sequence of greywackes, oxide-facies iron formation, chlorite schist, and granite. Stripping exposed a sequence of intermediate lapilli tuffs, hornblende schist, chert, biotite schist and chlorite-sericite schists. All units have been intruded by narrow granitic dykes and sills

Sep 08, 2014 (D Draper) - Northgate samples from their T-1 trench returned 0.56% to 6.18% Cu over 11.5 ft. Four holes drilled by Novawest in the vicinity of the T-1 trench returned the following averaged Cu values: F-96-1 – 3556 ppm over 7ft; F-96-2 – 3185 ppm over 5.5ft; F-96-3 – 3616 ppm over 8.5ft; and F-96-5 – 4888 ppm over 10ft, including 2 ft of 1.03% Cu. Hole F-96-4 returned 441 ppb Au over 1.7ft of iron formation.
Sep 08, 2014 (A Wilson) - A sample of drill core from Hollinger DDH F4-1-70 returned 0.228% Cu, 75 ppm Zn, 65 ppm Ni. A chip sample from an old trench returned 3.42% Cu over 8.5 ft.
