Several historical prospects be identified on the Property The Adanac Zone is a continuous galena vein ranging from 0.1 to 0.4m in width, within strongly limonitic and moderately azurite-bearing granodioritic host rock. Sample results from a 15m by 0.9-metre pit averaged 62.2 g/t Au and 171.1 g/t Ag The EPI Zone is a northeast-trending quartz-agate-fluoride epithermal vein roughly 1.0 metre in width within a 50-metre-long limonite and manganese-bearing shear zone.
