History
-
Fairchild Gold Corp. has the right to acquire a 100% interest in the property, which encompasses 108 mining claims cells subject to the terms of the Option Agreement.
-
Exploration conducted on behalf of Fairchild included airborne geophysics, prospecting, mapping, and soil sampling.
-
A short reconnaissance program was carried out in the fall of 2019, supported by fixed-wing aircraft.
-
In 2020, an airborne geophysical survey of the entire claim group was flown by Prospectair Geosurveys in April.

Geology
-
The Property lies in the western arm of the Savant Lake greenstone belt.
-
The western end of the Property is terminated by the Miniss River Fault System.
-
The eastern end expands into the Savant Lake greenstone belt proper. The Savant Lake greenstone belt marks the limit of the northerly development of the Wabigoon Subprovince.
-
The Property is divided by the east-west trending Kashaweogama Lake Fault, this divides the property geology in the centre of the lake.
-
The north shore is dominated by mafic to ultramafic flows intercalated with magnetite-rich chemical sediments, part of the Jutten Volcanic Sequence.
-
The southern shoreline marks the northern limit of the Handy Lake Volcanic Sequence.
-
Historical and recent exploration work indicated elevated or anomalous gold values in grab, soil, and lake bottom sediment samples near the Kashaweogama fault system.
-
The Kashaweogama fault system represents a major crustal break within this greenstone belt, similar to the LP fault discovered by Great Bear Resources in the Red Lake District.
