The Westarg 2 occurrence is located roughly 13 kilometres northwest of Tunjoy Lake, on an east facing slope of a south trending ridge.
The Westarg 2 showing area is underlain by a Paleocene to Eocene batholith of the Sloko-Hyder Plutonic Suite composed of granite and alkali feldspar granite. The batholith intrudes Upper Triassic volcanic rocks of the Stuhini Group, Upper Paleozoic rocks of the Stikine Assemblage and Lower Jurassic sedimentary rock of the Takwahoni Formation, Laberge Group.
In 2020, Brixton collected 8 rock samples in an area roughly 1 kilometre north-south by 0.5 kilometre east-west. The highest copper value of 2.2 per cent is located roughly in the centre of the area; a sample about 600 metres north of the first graded 1.1 per cent copper and another about 250 metres south-southeast of the first yielded 1.2 per cent copper (Figure 5-15, Press Release, Brixton Metals Corp., Dec.15, 2020). The remaining 5 samples, scattered to the west (3) and 1 each to the north and south of the copper high sample, graded between 0.1 to 1 per cent copper.
In 2020 Brixton Metals Corporation completed 3,025 metres of drilling in 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 from the West Target area that contains the new Westarg showings and the BS-J (104K 029) and Park 13 (104K 158) showings.
