Yes, they have gold and tungsten. Scheelite and free gold. The gold has been worked on and drilled. So far the tungsten has not been tested except in production briefly during the war. There has been no tungsten testing in 6 million tons of tailings. Just about every mine had tungsten production. Grades went to 3% but it is thought that these are from selected areas of the mines. The average grade of the tails has been only suggested by some, but it is thought to be in excess of 5 lbs tungsten metal. The 1 million tons of tails high grade has some areas of 0.20 OPT gold, and is thought to run much higher on the average than other areas in tungsten. It needs testing. The one per cent tungsten came from a war time production record of 20,000 tons feed.

I know there is 240,000 ounces of gold by 1400 drill holes. This is a fact. And there was met testing on that as well at Lakefield. The tungsten needs a program to delineate grade. Flotation testing with various reagants was done in 1945.
