The Duck occurrence is located on the north side of Cedar Creek, approximately 1.8 kilometres northwest of Nina Lake.

The area is underlain by Upper Triassic Nicola Group basaltic breccia within the central Quesnel Belt. The showing is located near the eastern contact of Nicola Group rocks and the underlying phyllitic metasedimentary rocks. Interbedded with the basaltic breccia are volcaniclastic sedimentary rocks and andesite. The volcanic rocks and associated sedimentary rocks form part of a belt extending from Quesnel Lake in the south to north of Sundberg Lake. North of Sundberg Lake the basaltic rocks are truncated by the north- striking Chiaz Creek fault.

Locally, shear zones or intensely faulted areas within pyroclastics and tuffs hosts pyrite. Another zone of mineralization, referred to as the KRP304 zone, is located on the south side of Cedar Creek approximately 500 metres to the west and comprises a 10-centimetre wide quartz vein with disseminated and veined galena and sphalerite mineralization.

In 2003, a sample (SM-03-27) assayed 1.77 grams per tonne gold, 0.24 per cent copper, 0.34 per cent lead and 0.63 per cent zinc (Assessment Report 27245).

In 2006, two rock samples from the main Duck zone yielded 1.515 and 1.940 grams per tonne gold, while a sample from the KRP304 zone yielded 0.120 gram per tonne gold, 25.2 grams per tonne silver and greater than 1 per cent lead and zinc, respectively (Besserer, D.J. (2006-12-18): Technical Report for the Cedar Creek Property).

Work History

During 1969 to 1973, claims covering the present property area were explored by Leemac Mines Ltd. and Rhamco Resource Exploration and Consultants, who conducted prospecting, rock sampling, soil geochemical and magnetometer surveys.

In 1984, Mt. Calvery Resources completed a program of geological mapping, prospecting, trenching and geochemical sampling on the area as the Jun 11 claim.

During 1985 to 1990, Cedarmine Resources Inc. cut a grid and conducted extensive soil geochemical, magnetometer, and induced polarization surveys. A number of reverse-circulation drill holes were drilled as well.

During 2003 through 2006, geological mapping, prospecting and an induced polarization survey, totalling 19.5 line-kilometres, were conducted on behalf of AN-Kobra Resources Inc.

In 2007 and 2008, Cedar Mountain Exploration completed programs of geological mapping and geochemical sampling on the area.
