The property was first discovered by prospector Thomas Gauthier in 1938 with grab samples assaying from 1 to 13 grams per tonne. The mineralization was has hosted within a quartz-tourmaline-carbonate vein within a seritized shear zone and faults cutting quartz feldspar porphyries and intermediate to mafic volcanics.

The mineralization consists of cubic disseminated pyrite in selvage of quartz-carbonate-tourmaline veins.
Explor plans on conducting a two phase exploration program. Phase I is designed to better determine the location of the structural targets via magnetic and VLF geophysics. Phase II will consist of diamond drilling the identified target or targets.
