More than 70% of the Columbia property is covered by soils. The mineralization host rock is phyllitic schist intruded by dioritic intrusives and dikes. The phyllitic schist is overlain unconformably by andesitic tuffs of the Permian Happy Creek Volcanics. Strongly gossanous, white quartz veins and sheared oxidized zones are carrying the gold mineralization at the Columbia project. Low angle shear zones trending north northwest, dipping northeast is identified on the property.

• Through Zonge Geophysics, Bridgeport completed a ground magnetic and IP survey on the Columbia property
• Soil survey samples were collected and assays received

• 1936-37
• Company: Unknown
• Commodity: Au
• Type of work: VLF survey (defined 24 anomalies including the main Columbia vein), Trenching (6 of the VFL anomalies tested), Mining (Produced 2,350 tons of ore between 1.3 and 1.5 oz/ton)

Drillhole C-1 went through a stope with a width of 11 feet. Drillhole C-2, cored a ten-foot intercept in the unoxidized ore which graded 0.46 oz/ton gold for the top five feet, and 0.095 oz/ton gold for the bottom five feet. Drillhole C-3 cut one foot of 0.42 oz/ton gold in the hanging wall of the vein, and one foot of 0.52 oz. ton gold in the foot wall.
