The Gem project includes seven claims and covers 1749 ha (4206 acres)The property is underlain by folded, sheared and fractured volcanic and derived sedimentary rocks of the early Garner, Bidou and Gem Assemblages that have been intruded by granite Older airborne geophysical surveys focused on identifying massive sulphides with the volcanic rocks and would not have detected quartz veins or low-sulphide shear zones Several areas at the GEM and Gem Lake South showings have reported grey and white quartz veins 0.1-1.0m wide and 5m long containing iron-carbonate, gold and 1-3% pyrite Major sinuous shear zones up to 1500m wide and striking north have been mapped on the property.
