The company is particularly intrigued by soil sample L899E,\n8775N with 2,210 ppm copper and 8.45% iron.  Interest in this sample\nis is inspired by previous float samples collected further south on\nthe property including a massive sulfide boulder grading 24.3% copper\nand 19.6 g/t silver collected in 1999 and five chalcopyrite rich\nmassive boulders with an average grade of 8.0% copper, 8.9 g/t silver\ncollected by Hudson Bay Exploration and Development in 2000 (as\nreported in their report filed with the BC Ministry of Mines).\n \n \n \n \n In 2013, Eastfield discovered the Golden Sky showing, a\nnew area of mineralization in the northern region of the claims where\nquartz veins hosted in sheared rhyolite returned grab samples to 1.51\ng/t gold, 1.37% zinc, 0.48% lead, 1,203 ppm arsenic and 1,313 ppm\nantimony. A small soil grid was established at Golden Sky in 2014 but\nno follow up or further work was completed until 2021 (the current\nprogram) when 596 soil and rock samples were collected.\n \n \n \n \n The Hedgehog Project is located approximately 12\nkilometers north of the community of Barkerville, BC.
