May 17, 2019 (B Nelson) - Hopkins (1915) first described this occurrence: 'This unsurveyed claim lies on the southwest shore of Little Duck Lake. A five foot pit is sunk on a quartz vein five feet in width, which strikes east and west and dips 60 degrees to the north in a hornblende schist. The location was not verified by Pye (1964), and the location on map M2023 is approximate.
