About the Miminiska Property
The Miminiska Property is the Company's key focus and comprises approximately 5,500 ha of patented and unpatented mineral claims covering abundant banded iron formation. The property includes the Miminiska and Frond Prospects where historical drilling has confirmed the presence of high-grade gold. Exploration work in the project area has identified several gold occurrences between Miminiska and Frond (see Figure 1). These previous results highlight the potential for additional discoveries of high-grade gold on the project.
