Overview
The Timmins South property is located immediately south of the Porcupine-Destor Break and 7 kilometers (4.3 miles) southeast and bordering Newmont's Dome Mine property
History
This project includes several well-known high-grade gold occurances. At the Bay Lake gold showing as 12-meter shaft was sunk in the 1930s on a 1.37 meter wide quartz vein, which returned composite samples of 150.8 g/t gold, 43.2 g/t gold and 35.17 g/t gold and historic grab samples of 766.2 g/t gold and 229.7 gt gold (reference Ontario Geological Survey Inventory Record MDI42A06NE0017). * Note - grab samples by their nature are selective and not necessarily representative of the mineralization hosted on the property.
Exploration
- Summer 2022 exploration program consisted of ground-truthing locations of historic drill collars, prospecting and geological mapping to follow up on historic surface sampling and drilling to generate targets for follow-up work.
- Samples contained elevated gold values along the southwest margin of a southeast striking iron formation at the Bay Lake and Turner showings.
- The 2022 rock sample grading 300g/t gold supports the potential for high-grade gold in quartz-veined iron formation.
