The Bursey's North claim group (the \"Property\") lies along the GRUB line, a crustal scale structural corridor believed to be one of the major fluid conduits related to the Gander Gold belt and New Found Gold's \"Keats Zone\" hosting bonanza high-grade gold mineralization where recent dill results of 146.2 g/t Au over 25.6m were reported (see press release dated May 21, 2021).
