It's approximately 7 km northeast of Pan American Silver’s Timmins West Mine and 14 km southwest of Newmont’s Hollinger Mine. Data from the company’s ongoing drill program will be used in support of an updated Resource and Preliminary Economic Assessment.

The property has been explored since 1927 by numerous ground geophysical surveys and diamond drilling. Dome Exploration discovered and delineated a gold mineralized zone that is approximately 350 meters long and 45 meters wide. Strike length of the gold mineralization is greater than 2000 meters at depth. The continuity of mineralization continues to be confirmed and the structure remains open on strike and at depth.

Further, the property consists of 265 unpatented mining units and 11 patented mining claims located in the Bristol and Ogden Townships in the Timmins-Porcupine Mining Camp for a total of approximately 3,765 hectares.
