Located immediately west of the Selbaie mine, the property is 100% owned by Cogitore, subject to a 50% back in right held by Inmet Mining Corporation, and is accessible via an all season public road to the Selbaie mine and through logging roads which run across the project area. The Selbaie West project encloses the same felsic volcanic package that hosts the Selbaie Mine (53 Mt @ 1% Cu, 2.0% Zn, 0.6 g/t Au and 41 g/t Ag).

The property is essentially all overburden covered but limited lithogeochem data from diamond drill holes indicate a highly promising VMS environment, including high temperature rhyolites and strong chlorite alteration. Previous drilling located just to the south of the property yielded anomalous gold values, including an assay of 24.3 g/t Au and 1.8% Cu over 1.1 metres.

Drilling done by Cogitore in 2008 intersected 2 metres of massive pyrite and a zone of stringer sulphides which returned 1.7% zinc over 3 metres (incl. 0.3% copper and 7.1% zinc over 0.3 metres). Significantly, these appear to be in the same volcanic package as the Selbaie Mine. New MegaTEM data recently released by the Quebec Government show several conductors of interest in the property. Although still at the grassroots stage, this project represents a good opportunity for early success in a still under-explored, yet promising area of the Abitibi belt.
