The coarse-grained target measured 1,000 metres long.\n In 2012, FPX reported that work on the Klow Project included a\nground-based magnetic geophysical survey, the results of which were\nused to assist in locating drill holes as part of an initial phase of\nexploration drilling.\n \n \n \n \n Forestry roads and helicopters provide primary access\nto the property.
