The initial 2009 phase of compilation of all historic exploration work, geological mapping, soil and rock sampling has been completed, and after interpretation of these results, the company has decided to commence a diamond drill program of up to 10,000 metres. The property is located approximately 15 kilometres north-northwest of Houston, B.C., and is situated in the Omineca mining division. Lone Pine molybdenum property The 2009 geological mapping and soil sampling identified the location of the favourable geological units including new areas of Alaskite and granites hosting visible molybdenum mineralization. The Alaskite intrusive is the main focus of the Lone Pine property and in drilling, it has been interpreted as being the most favourable lithology for molybdenum mineralization and is the host to the existing resource. During the field program, all of the historical showings were relocated which comprised old pits and trenches where molybdenum mineralization had been located. All of the known showings located during the mapping program are located within the zone of anomalous moybdenum in soils and it will be these areas that will be tested in the upcoming diamond drill program.
