Skyharbour Resources ,know as the operator, owns
50% of the
7,000 acres Heyson property along with their partner
MPH Ventures ,owns the remaining
50% interest. This property lies south of the former Howey and Hasaga gold mines, in the southern portionof the
Central Red Lake Gold Belt approximately 5 km southwest of the operating
Goldcorp`s Red Lake and Campbell gold mines.
Prior to Skyharbour optioning the property, there was little reliable historical information available on the property. Whatever was available was difficult to substantiate. A property scale till sampling survey was undertaken to identify areas on interest on the property that might host significant gold deposits.
The Company identified a large,and well-defined "gold-in-till" anomaly (Sully Creek Till Anomaly)on the property. The width of the
anomaly covers 350 metres along a strike length of 1.5 kilometres.Sampling indicates the source of the gold-in-till anomaly is on the property. The probable source area is low ground covered by tills and capped by lacustrine clays rendering most conventional surfacee xploration techniques ineffective.
2003 drilling tested the SullyCreek Till Anomaly and identified gold values within a distincthematite-epidote alteration system with the most significant intercept grading 59.4 grams per tonne over 0.4 metres.
