The Marion property is located 175 km north-northwest from Sudbury, and 100 km southwest of Timmins and consists of 53 claims located in the Province of Ontario.
Geologically the Marion Property contains a number of lithological and structural features that makes it a compelling target for gold exploration.
The historic trenching of the property identified 12.75 g/t Au over 9.15 m, and 135 m along strike the structure contained 2.18 g/t Au over 9.75 m (Domego Resources Ltd, 1979).

OVERVIEW
REGIONAL & PROJECT GEOLOGY
The property is underlain by a sequence of sedimentary, felsic and mafic volcanic and volcaniclastic rocks of the Swayze greenstone belt. Thisbelt hoststheCôtéLakeGoldMine, which contains reserves and resources of 7.61 Moz Au (1.03 g/t Au), and 12.07 Moz Au (0.89 g/t Au), respectively, and is hosted in tonalite intrusions (IAMGold Annual Report, 2023). The primary mineral deposit type being targeted on the property is gold-rich volcanogenic massive sulphides
Gold mineralization is also associated with a 15 m thick bandediron formation, which is an excellent host for exhalative and structurally controlled precious metals. The Marion property also contains tonaliteintrusions,whichwillbeinvestigatedforCôtéLakestylegold mineralization.
