Nov 04, 2022 (Therese Pettigrew) - Early Precambrian granite and gneiss are cut by an easterly-trending fault zone. Drilling over a strike length of 1000 feet indicated low Cu values with traces of Ni over narrow widths. Only one drill hole cut Early Precambrian peridotite, the favourable host rock asong the fault zone (SMDR 00518). Consolidated Bellekeno Mines Ltd. completed a self potential survey and 10 drill holes on the main fault structure south of Reynar Lake in 1955. No assays were included in the drill logs filed for assessment, but the July 5, 1956 issue of Northern Miner reported that the best result was 3.7% copper across 2.0 feet in hole #9 (Assessment report 52L07NW0001).
Jul 27, 2022 (Q Unknown) - 1955 drilling intersected mostly Cu mineralization with only trace Ni values. Drilling in 1959 intersected disseminated chalcopyrite and pyrrhotite. No assays reported. Mineralization hosted within garnetiferous gneiss.
