W I N T E R 2 0 1 4 27 and Royal Oak Mines Inc. The compa- nies completed extensive engineering and environmental baseline work, as well as more than 2,000 metres of under- ground development and 466 diamond drill holes. Additional studies were carried out by Seabridge Gold, Inc., North American Metals Corp. and Banks Island Gold Ltd. between 1996 and 2014, when IDM purchased the property. Many gold mineralized zones occur on the property, including three with established resource estimates. The three zones (Marc, AV and JW) have been folded, and are separated by dip- slip fault zones. The zones are moder- ately to steeply dipping, roughly tabular, and vary in width from one to 40 metres, averaging about 15 metres in thickness. Gold and silver mineralization is asso- ciated with stockworks, disseminations and patches of coarse grained pyrite. Alteration facies includes strong quartz- sericite alteration. • MBI Pacific Drilling Products Ltd.
