The Claims cover the northern limit of the Abitibisub-province close to the sub-province boundary contact with theQuetico sub-province to the north.

Historic work has disclosed diorite and dacite, tracechalcopyrite and graphite and overburden depth of 90 feet, andgraphite bearing metasediments and mafic volcanic rocks wereencountered in 1962 in the southeast claim area.
In 1984, gold assays from ablation till up to 4800 ppbgold in heavy metal concentrate from a reverse circulation drill program. The latest work wascompleted in 2000 when M. Valliere completed trenching and drilled 5short holes with a combined length of 262 feet. Drilling encounteredquartz feldspar biotite gneiss and mafic volcanic rocks. Quartztourmaline veining was reported in one drill log. Geochemical analysisof rock gave results consistent with mafic volcanic rock with 48%SiO 2 .
