The Kilo property, comprising the Kilo (Lot 9328), Kilo 2 (Lot 9330), Violet No. 3 (Lot 9329), Wedge Fr. (Lot 9331), and Pansy Crown Fr.

See also 082FNW130, 132-136.
The Kilo mine operated intermittently between 1897 and 1939. During the period 1900 through 1939 a total of 2,120 tonnes was produced yielding 29,640 grams of gold, 27,060 grams of silver, 48 kilograms of lead and 21 kilograms of zinc; there is no production recorded prior to 1900.
The property is underlain by coarse-grained, porphyritic Nelson granite cut by small pegmatite dikes. The underground workings consist of five levels and one sublevel, of which all but the highest and lowest levels are connected by raises; the highest level is connected to the surface by a raise. Portal to the No. 1 level is just above the road at 1460 metres elevation.
The vein strikes 135 to 155 degrees, dips 30 to 40 degrees northeast and ranges between 7 and 60 cm wide. Reportedly, the vein has been drifted on for 90 metres but is cut off by a fault near the face on No. 3 level. The vein is mainly quartz with pyrite and accessory galena and sphalerite.
Kilo Gold Mines Ltd. rehabilitated the Kilo adit in 1985. King Jack Resources Ltd. conducted the Chapleau Creek property between 1985 and 1987.
