This information provides an indication of the exploration potential of the Property but may not be representative of expected future results. |
Both properties have excellent access and high-priority targets for immediate follow-up work related to geophysical anomalies, excellent host lithologies and favourable structures. A 2020 drill program on Fredart intercepted wide zones of base-metal mineralization that included significant Au values.
The Confederation South Block is on the south limb of the Confederation Lake assemblage, directly on strike from Great Bear's Dixie Project. Historical base-metal exploration had focused on the western portion of the property leaving the eastern portion largely unexplored. No historical gold exploration has been performed.
