WORK HISTORY
In 1995, Consolidated North Coast collected and analyzed 210 soil samples, 97 moss mat stream sediment samples, and 1 rock sample. Consolidated North Coast prepared a grid which was used to conduct an Induced Polarization (IP) survey, by Lloyd Geophysics.
In 1996, Consolidated North Coast Industries Ltd. carried out an exploration program consisting of six diamond drill holes on the Goldvale property. Drilling in six holes totaled 915 metres and was focused on Induced Polarization targets revealed in their 1995 program.
