Area 51 returned these highlighted assays:

Wallbridge executives are keenly awaiting the initial resource estimate, saying it will provide a snapshot of the true potential of the Fenelon system, which remains open.
The company has a land package stretching almost 90 km east from the Quebec border and covering more than 900 sq. km of the Detour-Fenelon gold trend. The package includes the Martinere gold and the Grasset nickel sulphide projects, both of which are in the advanced exploration stage.
