Mineralization Comments

Nov 20, 2014 (A Wilson) - Diamond drilling was conducted over a 400 m strike length. The best assays were 0.15% Cu, 0.10% Ni and 0.28 oz/t TPM over 45 cm in core. Some flake graphite also is present in gneiss.


Jul 27, 2022 (Q Unknown) - 12 DDHs along 400 m strike length. Best assays: 0.15% Cu, 0.10% Ni, 0.28 opt precious metals over 45 cm in ddh. Graphite: flake graphite present in gneiss. 1955: drilling intersected minor chalcopyrite and pyrite. 1956: Drilling intersected disseminated chalcopyrite in garnetiferous gneiss. 1987: drilling intersected Narrow sulphide zone hosted in garnetiferous gneiss, pegmatite and biotite-schist.
