Duparquet Gold Project

The Duparquet/Destor gold property is situated 2 km north of the Porcupine-Destor fault within the Abitibi Greenstone Belt and is a large claim block (approximately 2,140 hectares) covering potential splay fault extensions of mineralization associated with the Beattie and Donchester past producing mines located 3 to 15 km to the west.  The 100%-owned Duparquet Gold Project adjoins the past-producing Beattie and Donchester gold mine properties and is contiguous with the historic Dusquene gold mine property.

The Company completed a series of high resolution ground magnetic surveys on the main property claim block with 50m line spacing, which has been integrated into our detailed geographic information system (GIS) data base.   Preliminary interpretation of the ground magnetic data has identified the strongest magnetic anomaly on the property as extending 75 to 250m on strike from a gold intersection in historical Quebec government reports.

The drill intersection from the 1940's, reported in Quebec showing report (GM 00695), returned 1.7 g/t gold over 1.16m (see map below). On-site fieldwork includes stripping and channel sampling in conjunction with detailed geological and structural mapping on priority drill targets.

December 2010, the Company announced that an airborne magnetic and electromagnetic survey was being flown in conjunction with adjacent property holder Xmet Inc.   The survey will utilize the advanced TDEM EMosquito II high-resolution time domain transient electromagnetic system that will provide deep penetration.   The detailed magnetic coverage and radar altimetry will be recorded for digital elevation modeling.   The helicopter survey will be flown at flight line spacing of 100 metres across Tres-Or's entire Duparquet property.   The survey is meant to provide refined direct detection of gold-bearing splay faults originating from the Porcupine-Destor Fault.

Tres-Or announced the addition of the 277 hectare Destor claim block just north of the past producing Duquesne Mine property.  

 

 

Duparquet Major Claim HoldersIn 1912, a rich gold vein was discovered near Lake Duparquet by a prospector named Beattie. He set up the Beattie Gold Mine company that began operation in 1933. That same year, the new community forming at the mine was incorporated as Ville de Duparquet,Laura Lee Duffett & Harrison Cookenboo during July 2010 exploration program
