The Coles Creek Property covers 13,243 hectares in the Omineca Mountains of British Columbia.

The geological formation of the Callinan claims is similar to that of producing mines in the area. These include the Huckleberry Mine, some 17 km to the north, which last year produced 62.9 million lbs. of copper and 426,000 lbs. of molybdenum.

The Equity Silver Mine, 70 km northeast of the Coles Creek Project, recovered 71.36 million oz. of silver and 528,000 oz. of gold during its 13 years of production.

Samples defining the main exploration target returned gold values ranging from 0.24 g/t to 3.05 g/t, copper between 0.25% and 2.62%, and molybdenum at 0.03%. The soil anomalies are coincident with a magnetic anomaly located by a previous operator. The conductor measures approximately 150 metres by 150 metres.

Grab samples taken from exposed outcrops over a 100 metre width provided the following range of assays: 0.115% to 0.305% copper, 0.04 g/t to 0.12g/t gold, 33 g/t to 1181 g/t silver, 0.21% to 9.33% lead, 0.4% to 1.03% zinc and 0.051% to 0.403% molybdenum.

Recent work on Coles Creek included drilling in both 2007 and 2008 that help outline an extensive silver-zinc-lead zone in a volcano-sedimentary basin like structure. Work at the property is ongoing.
