The area the Toga showing is mapped on a regional scale as Upper Triassic Stuhini Group volcanic rocks intruded by dioritic dikes, sills and plugs of Jurassic to Cretaceous age (Open File 1997-3).

Rock and soil sampling was done around the Central (104G 167) and Pass Gossan (104G 166) showings in 2017 and 2018 by GT Gold Corp. Rock sampling in 2017 revealed strong gold and copper mineralization in the next drainage to the south of Pass Gossan, presumably the new Toga showing area where one sample yielded 0.27 per cent copper (Figure 72 and 73, Assessment Report 37059). Gold samples were insignificant at this locale but were significant at the Central showing 1.4 kilometres to the east.

Work History.

In 2017, GT Gold Corp conducted prospecting traverses around the Saddle and Quash-Pass area, collecting 46 soil samples. Prospecting soil samples were not collected on a grid, but anywhere the prospectors’ field assistants could collect one as the worked with the prospectors. During prospecting traverses, 177 rock samples were collected in the Saddle area and surroundings in the Quash-Pass area.

In 2018, GT Gold explored the Tatogga Property in 2018 with 24,759 of diamond drilling on the Saddle North and Saddle South prospects where both targets were reported to have intersected strong mineralization. IP surveys occurred at the Saddle North and Saddle South and over some parts of the Quash-Pass area about 9 kilometres to the southwest of the Saddle area. A total of 2254 line-kilometres of airborne magnetic and radiometric surveying covered the Saddle North and South Saddle areas and extended to the southwest covering the Quash (104G 161), Violet (104G 164), Petal (104G 165), Pass Gossan (104G 166) and Central (104G 167) occurrences. A 45 line-kilometre IP survey covered Saddle South and the western part of Saddle North. A second IP survey consisted of an 11 line-kilometre survey over Pass Gossan showing (104G 166) and the area immediately north and northeast of the Central showing (104G 167). Prospecting and soil and rock sampling occurrence in the Saddle and Quash-Pass areas. During prospecting traverses, 228 rock samples were collected in the Saddle area & surroundings & in the Quash-Pass area. Five hundred and seventy-two soil samples were collected around the Saddle & Quash-Pass areas.

The Quash-Pass area was discovered to have a large surficial geochemical footprint with coincident IP chargeability locally. IP results at Quash-Pass have not been drill tested but chargeability highs align well with elevated surficial geochemistry. Soil samples were collected in the Central showing area in 2018.
