Property located 2 km north of Cadillac Break, a major fault zone in the Val-d’Or district

Exploration 1950s: Exploration work revealed a gold-bearing zone about 900 m from the mine shaft.

1980s: Two companies conduct follow-up drilling on the gold target (98 holes, 11,500 m)

180 holes (22,768 m) of surface and underground diamond drilling define the gold zone

2013: Sulliden begins to index all historical geological data related to the gold zone
