Exploration History

Exploration activity by Newmont Exploration in 1982 resulted in DDH 255 - B - 82-1 intersecting weakly anomalous gold values which returned a weighted average grade of 219 ppb Au / 22.0 feet (395.5-417.5 ft). These values were hosted by what the drill log describes as Exhalative chemincal sediments with pyrite and Exhalative massive pyrite.
