The Gordo 2A area is underlain by rock of the Upper Triassic Stuhini (Takla) Group.

A focus of sampling by Stealth Minerals in 2004 occurred on their Gordo 2 claim, in part due to the location of several 1 to 2 metre coarse pyrite bearing quartz veins and pyrite-pyrrhotite veins and disseminations lower in the creek. In the vicinity, float samples in talus consisting of rusty vuggy quartz veins to 10 centimetres hosted by flow banded felsic rock yielded up to 43 grams per tonne gold (sample 192765, Assessment Report 27638). Weakly hornfelsed rock lower in the creek contained vein and disseminated pyrite and pyrrhotite with samples assaying from 0.3 to 4.3 grams per tonne gold (Assessment Report 27638). Dacitic outcrop sample 192503 yielded 2.2 grams per tonne gold, 19.3 grams silver and 0.34 per cent zinc (sample 192503, Assessment Report 27638).

This mineralized area is within and on the border of a ThK radiometric low anomaly and within a magnetic high anomaly.

Work History

In 2004, Stealth Minerals held the Gordo Group of claims which covered the Joanna occurrences on the north, the Falcon occurrences (094E 185 and 185) on the south, the Oxide Peak occurrences (094E 179, 180 and 181) to the west and the Gord occurrences (094E 051 and 052) on the east. Stealth collected 854 rock samples for analysis and 274 samples were taken PIMA rock spectroscopy for alteration identification (Assessment Report 27638) (Assessment Report 27638). Ten silt and 30 soil samples were also taken. A number of samples were collected in the area of the Gord 18 (094E 051) showing. In 2005, Stealth Minerals Ltd. completed a further program of prospecting, geological mapping and rock sampling on the Gordo-Too-Oxide property.

In 2014, a program of prospecting and geological mapping was completed on the area as the Tod property.

In 2016, Seven Devils Exploration Ltd. completed a program of prospecting and rock sampling on the area.

In 2018, Arcwest Exploration Inc. conducted a program of geological mapping and minor rock sampling on the area.

In 2020, TDG Gold Corp. completed a 11.9 line-kilometre ground induced polarization survey on the area northwest of Oxide Peak and an airborne geophysical survey on the area as part of the Baker-Shasta-Oxide Peak property.
