grid.
-Riverlake & Highrock: 211 line-kilometres of ground EM surveys
completed in April on four grids.
-Mann Lake: 2,534 metres of drilling in three holes, finished in April

samples) completed in July on the AMT grid that spans the Cable Bay
Shear Zone east of the lake.
-Pasfield Lake: a 140 line-kilometre airborne 3-D Full Tensor gravity
gradient survey has mobilized, and is designed specifically to produce
forward-modeled gravity profiles across the uplift block.
-Riverlake & Highrock: grid-based soil geochemistry is planned for
early August, and will cover conductors defined on both airborne and
ground EM surveys.
-West Carswell: a 35 line-kilometre transient magnetotelluric survey
(AMT) is planned for August on one grid with 7 lines designed for three
dimensional modeling of conductors associated with the Harrison Shear
Zone.

Diamond drilling contracted to
Northwest Drilling for September will test highest priority, near
surface targets.
-Stony Road: 3,000 metres of
Diamond drilling contracted to River
Valley Energy Services for October to test coincident airborne and
ground conductors.
-Pasfield Lake: 3,000 metres of drilling planned for November-December
to test the Cable Bay Shear Zone east of the lake using results from
the summer geochem, AMT and gravity surveys.
-West Carswell: 3,000 metres of
Diamond drilling planned for
