The Metarg 3 showing is in a curved valley, approximately six kilometres west of Tatsamene Lake. The showing occurs in an area underlain by Mississippian volcanic rocks of the Stikine Assemblage. A single sample was collected at the given location, which assayed 3.4 per cent copper (Figure 6-15, Press Release, Brixton Metals Corp., Dec.15, 2020). Samples taken about 0.75 kilometres west, 1.5 kilometres northwest and 1.2 kilometres south were also anomalous in copper, grading from greater than 0.05 per cent copper to less than 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 Metla Target area that contains the new Metarg showings.

Refer to Thorn (104K 031), Chivas (104K 180), East Outlaw (104K 083) and Oban (104K 168) for details of the work history of the greater Thorn property. Also see Metarg 1, 2 and 4 for related information.
