Northern Superior Resources is already working in that area.  This info is from their website.  There is lots of info there about gold in the area. 

TI-PA-HAA-KAA-NING (TPK) Gold/Silver/Copper Property.  The TPK property is a large property, 30 km east-west by 20 km north-south (Figure 1). Located approximately 470 km northeast of Thunder Bay, Ontario, and 190 km northeast of Pickle Lake, the Property is situated within the traditional area of the First Nations community of Neskantaga, located about 30 km southwest of the property.  TPK is located 15 km west of the Ring of Fire: the TPK property will only benefit from forthcoming infrastructure development associated with these large chromite, nickel, copper and platinum group element (PGE) deposits. The Musselwhite Mine and mill, located only 150 km west of the TPK project and connected by winter road, validates the presence of large, gold-bearing systems in the region and demonstrates that successful, respectful collaboration between the communities and industry is achievable.

“gold grain anomalies of this scale are an amalgamated response from a cluster of gold zones which normally indicate a large gold district rather than a single zone” (see Northern Superior Resources Inc. press release, June 21, 2010).
