10.1.4 Diamond Drilling 
In September and early October, 1955, Dominion Gulf completed eight, shallow, X-ray 
diamond drill holes (366.5 m). A further eight AXT-diameter holes (1,677 m) were 
completed by the end of the year. By April 1956, 8,556 m of drilling had been completed in 
68 holes. The core was stored on the property. Core (35 boxes) from three holes (208-56-49, 21 & 58) are stored at the Timmins core library. In 1988 Musto was able to recover and 
resample several AXT-diameter holes. Fumerton et al. (1993) encountered “well-preserved 
core”. Piilonen (2003) took photos of core apparently adjacent to a deteriorating log 
structure. Sarissa (S. Keevil, personal communication, July 2010) reports that some 
remnants of core were found around an old container. The records seem to suggest that 
core was stored near Dominion Gulf's campsite on the east shore of the lake and within the 
setback from the lake and should not have been disturbed by logging
