The Property

kilometres northwest of Fort St. James. It is comprised of
two claim blocks: the North Block (1,196.19 ha) and the South Block
(1,311.75 ha). The Property lies within the Quesnel Trough, a
600-kilometre long geological belt extending from south of Mt.
Polley to north of the Kemess Deposit. It is considered an
early stage exploration prospect that has potential to host both
porphyry type copper-gold mineralization and vein type gold
mineralization.
The Quesnel Trough hosts numerous porphyry
copper-gold+/-molybdenum deposits, the majority of which are
associated with early Jurassic age, potassically altered diorite,
monzonite, and syenite intrusive bodies. The most significant
porphyry deposits in the Quesnel Trough include the operating
Kemess, Mt. Milligan and Mt. Polley Mines as well as the Kwanika
and Woodjam deposits.
