Overview

In the 1990s our exploration lead, Doug Robinson, P.Eng., held more than 100 claim units here, covering 15 km along the Larder Lake–Cadillac break system that hosts the gold of Kirkland Lake. After mapping more than 3,000 acres and running more than 200 km of ground geophysics, the best claims were kept – they form the core of the property today.

Stripping, mapping and sampling since then have exposed the showings below, mostly in the north and east of the property. None of them has been drill-tested. Each one has its own page with the geology, location, photos, maps, geophysics and sampling, and a guided tour in the Property Viewer. The laboratory results for the Reed showing are on its sampling section.

Much of the ground is under glacial overburden. Float trains explains how the large boulders the ice left behind lead back to their bedrock source.

Reed Showing

North-east of the property · UTM 563 861 E, 5 327 220 N (NAD83 zone 17)

High-grade gold in a distinctive albite replacement zone with more than 5% pyrite, on the edge of a sharp east-trending magnetic break.

Key findings

  • 8.02 g Au/mT over 0.61 m (MNDM geologist)
  • 8.89 g Au/mT over 0.55 m (independent geologist)

Exploration highlights

  • Cut-sampled three times by three different people
  • Mapped and channel-sampled in 2021
  • Was never drill-tested

  • Hosted in a wide alteration zone
  • Four vein strands (G1–G4)

Exploration highlights

Vein strikes

Every vein's strike and dip at true scale, with its best gold, our claims and the old field grid. In the Property Viewer, turn on Strike and dip to see them in 2D and 3D, and click a petal of the rose to light up the veins that run that way.
