Abstract
In Quebec, the concessions are the Beattie Gold Mines, Donchester Gold Mines and the Hunter Mine. The Beattie and the Donchester produced over one million ounces of gold from the 1930s until the middle 1950s using an on-site mill, part of which still remains. Drilling over the last twenty years has delineated a resource that will be included in a compliant NI 43-101 report currently being compiled by Peter Bevan P. Eng. It is expected to be available next week. Open pit and underground mining possibilities provide for a rapid development of the Beattie while the Donchester connected on two levels to the Beattie provides access for future development. Two gold claims known as the Dumico east of the Donchester have had small production. With the Beattie and Donchester there is a total of 8.4km strike length along the Porcupine/Destor deformation zone which extends from near Timmims, Ontario to Val Dor, Quebec. This fault line has historically been a favorable environment for mineral production, primarily gold.
