I have been watching the developments along the Porcupine-Destor Fault in Quebec for sometime now as a shareholder of Clifton Star. EXS has very promising ground just to the west of Beattie/Donchester mines being drilled by CFO.

I like EXS because of its recent hits and because of the share structure, not diluted to 100's of millions of shares, CFO has 23,000,000+ shares out.

While the lithology on the East Bay property is not identical to Beattie (syenite intrusive on Beattie/Donchester) all of the structures that host BeattieDonchester, Dumico, Duquesne and NMB's Pit Gold run to the west through East Bay. Here is a link to a paper from the Quebec geo survey that describes the potential for discoveries at depth on this section of the Porcupine-Destor fault.

Many similarities and while the syenite is not exposed at the surface, faults have a way of mixing up lithologies along strike. Other intrusive bodies exist on East Bay that are very prospective IMO.

CFO is due to release an updated 43-101 resource that some writers say could exceed 3 million ounces. A wire frame model of the CFO drilling will accompany the 43-101 and may give some insight on what may lurk at depth to East Bay claim block.

Still doing DD, not investment advice
