The Sotarg 1 showing, located approximately 13 kilometres southwest of Tatsamene Lake, occurs near the contact of Triassic quartz diorite and Eocene to Paleocene granite of the Sloko-Hyder Plutonic Suite. A sample collected in 2020 by Brixton Metals assayed 1.2 per cent copper (Figure 8, Press Release, Brixton Metals Corp., Dec.15, 2020). The alteration footprint of the South Target area is reported to be 20 by 20 kilometres.

In 2019, Brixton Metals Corporation expanded their Thorn property through staking and acquisition of several claims over their South Target area which contained seven mineral showings including Hope (104K 064) and Daisy (104K 163).

In 2020 Brixton completed 3,025 metres of drilling within 16 core holes on the new Central Outlaw and West Outlaw zones on their Thorn property. A total of 1473 rock samples and 5588 soil samples were also collected throughout their expanded Thorn property including on the South Target area that contains the Sotarg 1, 2 and 3 showings (Figure 8, Press Release, Brixton Metals Corp., Dec.15, 2020).

Refer to Thorn (104K 031), Chivas (104K 180), East Outlaw (104K 083) and Oban (104K 168) for details of the work history on the greater Thorn property.
