Exploration History

This is a previously undiscovered occurrence (now known as the J.P. Occurrence), and suggests that detailed prospecting in the Larson Bay area may lead to more new gold discoveries. (OFR5723, p.33) * see Deposit Comment - Mineralization for assay results

Mineralization Comments

Jun 25, 2010 (J Bongfelt) - A northwest-trending tension fracture-hosted quartz vein, in felsic metavolcanics on the south shore of Larson Bay on Wabigoon Lake, was grab sampled by J.R. Parker and assayed 1.13 ounces gold per ton, 8.40 ounces silver per ton and 3.64% copper. This is a previously undiscovered occurrence (now known as the J.P. Occurrence), and suggests that detailed prospecting in the Larson Bay area may lead to more new gold discoveries. (OFR5723, p.33)
