The Nor occurrence is located approximately 1 kilometre east of Kennedy Lake and 2.3 kilometres northwest of the past producing Brynnor Mine (MINFILE 092F 001). The showing is approximately 15 kilometres northeast of Ucluelet, B.C.
Regionally, limestone of the Upper Triassic Quatsino Formation is underlain by andesites of the Triassic Karmutsen Formation, both of the Vancouver Group. These are intruded by granodiorite of the Early to Middle Jurassic Island Plutonic Suite.
Locally, on the limestone-granodiorite contact, a diorite border facies of the granodiorite is extensively altered to pyroxene and epidote. A 10 metre long by 3 metre wide lens of massive magnetite occurs in this skarn zone.
In 1986, First Coast Min. completed a program of prospecting and geochemical sampling on the area as the Gil claim. During 1995 through 2009, Consolidated Logan Mines Limited and later Logan Resources Limited, completed programs of prospecting, geological mapping, geochemical sampling and an induced polarization survey on the Lucky and Redford properties.
In 2011, Logan Resources Ltd. and joint venture partner Ridgemont Iron Ore Corp. conducted ground geophysics (including Nor) and drilling over the Redford property. The 2011 Ridgemont diamond drill program, east of Draw Creek and the Brynnor Pit, consisted of 61 holes totalling 10, 234.58 metres utilizing 29 drill pads. The program coverage was categorized into three zones: the Main, East and North zones. The drill results from the East zone confirmed that magnetite mineralization was similar in strike and dip to that found in the Main zone.
