The Nora occurrence is located on the north side of the Tay River, approximately 1.4 kilometres west of the Tay occurrence (MINFILE 092F 212).

The area is underlain by Upper Triassic Karmutsen Formation tholeiitic rocks, which have been intruded by batholiths and stocks of the Jurassic intermediate to felsic Island Intrusions. The basalts have undergone extensive chloritic alteration with localized zones of epidote, and carbonate flooding. The most dominant structure in the area is the west-northwest striking Taylor River fault.

Locally, quartz carbonate veins and silicified shears host pyrite in northwest and east-northeast striking, steeply dipping, structures occurring adjacent to a quartz diorite body.

During the mid-1980’s the area was explored as the Abraham 1-8 claims

Between 1991 and 1994, L.J. Lindinger explored the property and completed of various programs of geological mapping, prospecting, geochemical surveys and a single magnetometer survey. In 1993, grab samples of a mineralized vein, 5 centimetres wide, returned values of up to 26.6 parts per million gold. Another sample, taken 150 metres west, from silicified and sheared volcanics returned values of 910 parts per billion gold (Assessment Report 22870).

In 2005, Perovic Enterprises acquired the area as the Tay-Christina property and completed a minor drill program, totalling 370.64 metres.
