The Gerry podded jasper occurrence is hosted in Pennsylvanian limestone of Stikine Assemblage. The occurrence lies just west of the McLymont structure where a large body of unaltered quartz monzonite to the east is down-faulted against algal and crinoidal-bearing limestones to the west (Map 3, Assessment Report 29085). The limestones host veins of red jasper, up to 20 centimeters thick, as well as irregular pods that appear to be replacements, but also appear as clasts. However, nearby the limestone is brecciated and the carbonate clasts are re-cemented by jasper. The jasper contains trace pyrite, specular hematite and small white quartz veinlets. A sample was taken but the results were not published.

WORK HISTORY

In 2005, Gerry Ray spent 16 days examining and mapping some prospective parts of the very large claim block held by Romios Gold resources Inc. Ray surmised that irregular jasper replacements as seen at the Gerry podded jasper occurrence may be surface expressions of Northwest Zone-type (104B 281) massive pyrite mineralization at depth.

In 2013 Geotech Ltd. carried out a helicopter-borne electromagnetic (ZTEM) and aeromagnetic geophysical survey for Romios Gold Resources Inc over the Newmont Lake Block, comprising parts of the Newmont Lake property (Geophysics Report, Assessment Report 35016, Appendix VI). The following 21 mineral occurrences were covered by the survey: Ken (104B 027), 72 (Dirk) (104B (114), McLymont (104B 126), Northwest (McLymont), (104B 281), Jazzman (104B 282), Ridge (104B 325), Gab Northwest (104B 333), GAB 12 (104B 335), GAB 11 (104B 336), NEW (104B 379), Telena (104B 428), Bren (104B 429), Arseno (104B 432), Mon 2 (104B 433), Glacier Zone (104B 438), Camp Ridge (104B 441), Kirby NE (104B 442), Black Bear (104B 459), 2Bad (104B 460), Bridget (104B 462), O'Neil (104B 463). The location of newer occurrence Ray (104B 696), Vera (104B 710) and Gerry (104B 713) would have been covered by the geophysical program as well which brings the total to 24 occurrence.

In 2014, Romios Gold Resources Inc. conducted a prospecting and sampling program that included the evaluation of various showings and mineralized occurrences on the Newmont Lake and Trek Properties. A total of 314 rock chip samples and reconnaissance rock samples and 26 stream silt samples were collected.

In 2015, Romios Gold reported that a program of additional prospecting and sampling was carried out on the Burgundy Ridge discovery (Exploration and Mining in British Columbia 2015, page 135)

No work is reported for 2016 or 2017.

In January and February 2018, Geotech Ltd. carried out a helicopter-borne Versatile Domain Electromagnetic (VTEM) and aeromagnetic geophysical survey on behalf of Romios Gold Resources Inc. The survey covered three claim blocks: DIRK, KEN and NORTHWEST comprising parts of the Newmont Lake property and covered a total of 714 line-kilometres (Assessment Report 37492, containing Geotech Ltd Geophysical Report (Appendix Two)). The Gerry occurs within the Northwest Block which also covers the following mineral occurrences: Northwest (McLymont), (104B 281), Jazzman (104B 282), Gab Northwest (104B 333), Cuba South (334), GAB 12 (104B 335), GAB 11 (104B 336), Arseno (104B 432), Syenite (104B 439), Cuba North (104B 440), Camp Ridge (104B 441), Kirby NE (104B 442), Kirby SE (104B 443), Thumper (104B 445), Black Bear (104B 459), Ray (104B 696), Arseno Ridge (104B 709), Vera (104B 710), Gerry (104B 713). The Gerry showing occurs in an area of high airborne magnetics near the McLymont fault structure. A very significant airborne electromagnetic anomaly (VTEM anomaly #2) occurs about 1 kilometre to the east.

In December 2018, Crystal Lake Mining announced that it had acquired a 100 per cent interest in the 436 square kilometre Newmont Lake Project from Romios Gold.

In 2019, Crystal Lake conducted a drill program, on the Burgundy Ridge prospect area (104B 325) and the Northwest deposit. They also conducted extensive grassroots exploration.

See Northwest (104B 281) for details of work after the amalgamation of tenures by Romios Gold Resources Inc in the 2000s, when airborne geophysics was done over significant land areas and specific work on various occurrences.
