This property, which adjoins the Mt. Nansen property on the north side, is bisected by Discovery Creek, a significant placer gold producer. Two parallel zones of anastomosing quartz veins and porphyry dykes cut Cretaceous intrusive rocks and contain variable amounts of gold and silver over substantial widths. The two mineralized zones lie approximately on trend with the Brown-McDade and Webber-Huestis zones on the Mt. Nansen property to the south, and with gold and silver-bering veins on the Tawa property to the north. The mineralized zones are deeply oxidized, and the property appears to have good potential as a bulk tonnage low-grade oxide gold deposit.
