- Favorably located, being 25 kilometers
north of Nain, adjacent to an original Diamond Fields claim
block covering the Barth Island troctolitic intrusion.
- Airborne geophysical survey completed
in 1996 and identified several Mag and EM anomalies.
- Ground based follow up and Max-Min and
EM 37 geophysical surveys pinpointed the ground position
of the anomalies.
- VLF-EM modeling shows a strong structure
striking northward from Barth Island. This is now known
to represent a fault.
- 9 hole diamond drill program conducted
in the fall of 1996 intersected “layered primary sulphides”
several meters thick in places containing Copper, Nickel,
Cobalt and minor platinum values.
- Subsequent computer modeling of the
geophysical data shows that the sulphides intersected in
the drill holes do not represent the cause of the strong
geophysical anomalies.
- July 1998 “down hole Time Domain
EM” survey has identified several off hole conductors
and other conductors beneath the holes drilled, confirming
that the initial sulphide intersections do not represent
the strong surface anomalies.
- July 1998 surface Time Domain surveys
on the southern portion of the grid has identified further
strong geophysical anomalies. These can be regarded as valid
drill targets. Recommendation for geophysical work followed
by drilling from GeoScott Explorations.
- In mid 2003 Pathfinder Resources completed
a seven-hole, 1,310-metre drill program on the Sachem Bay
nickel property .
- A strong near surface EM conductor was
tested by four drill holes drilled by Pathfinder. The conductor
was explained by a series of thin sulphide (pyrrhotite)
rich layers distributed over six- to 22-metre-thick intervals
that contain anomalous values of nickel, copper and cobalt
overall. The highest grade single layer assayed 0.21 per
cent Ni, 0.22 per cent Cu and 0.06 per cent Co over a 1.0-metre
core interval.
- Drill tests of two other low resistivity
anomalies were explained by fault structures. A strong downhole
electromagnetic conductor indicated below a 250-metre hole
drilled in 1996 was not explained by a 221-metre extension
of the hole.
- Expenditures in excess of $600,000 since
July 1996. $100,000 in 2003
- Several other strong geophysical anomalies
remain to be drill tested along the 1,000 meter long grid
subsequent to the 2003 drilling.
- Property is available for J.V.
and is in good standing.
