Work History

Bethex Explorations and Bethlehem Copper Corporation completed a magnetometer survey and drilled two holes totalling 183 metres in 1968 and 1970.

In 2017, a chip sample (S-01) of olivine pyroxenite hosting greater than 5 per cent sulphides assayed 1.848 grams per tonne gold, 0.107 gram per tonne platinum, 0.971 gram per tonne palladium and 0.680 per cent copper over 3 metres (Kerr, J.R. (2018-10-04): Technical Report on the Olivine Mountain Property).

In 2018, GSP Resources Corp. completed a program of soil sampling and a 370 line-kilometre airborne geophysical survey on the area as the Olivine Mountain property. The following year, seven diamond drill holes, totalling 1200 metres, were completed on the Olivine Mountain property.
