Survey Description


Exploration of the JC property, situated approximately 360 km northeast of Yellowknife in Nunavut and Northwest Territories was carried out in the 1997-1998 assessment period.  A total of 160 heavy mineral samples were collected from glacial sediments.  The samples, collected with helicopter support, were processed at Ashton’s lab in North Vancouver, BC.  In addition, a total of 136 samples collected by Canamera in 1996 (on behalf of Lytton) was re-processed by Ashton.  These reprocessed samples were collected in an area west of the current survey area on the JC property.

Both sets of data can be found in Nunavut Assessment Report 084077.
