The HOG project is located on the northwestern flank of the Roberts Mountains approximately 73 miles (120 km) south of Carlin, Nevada. The project is on the Battle Mountain-Eureka Gold Trend, a northwest alignment of bulk-mineable gold deposits including Pipeline, Cortez Hills, Gold Acres, Cortez, Horse Canyon, Gold Bar and Archimedes (Figure 1). The property is 12 miles (19 km) southeast of the Cortez Hills deposit, a +12 million ounce sediment-hosted gold deposit currently being mined by Barrick.

Bravo reports the presence of "auriferous lower plate carbonate rocks and jasperoid" locally on the eastern and southern portions of their Pete Hanson Project with "grab samples of altered rock containing anomalous gold values of 0.3 to +3.0 g/t Au". Similarly, Miranda has silicified lower-plate carbonate rocks on the south end of the new claim block. The remainder of the project area is covered by pediment. The Hog Project may be within the large gold system footprint of the Tonkin Springs, Red Canyon and the Pete Hanson projects.

Miranda plans to advance the project and identify targets by mapping and sampling the bedrock portion of the claims, and by fault and lineament projection into the pediment. In keeping with Miranda's business model a joint venture partner will be sought to explore the 22 claims that fall outside of the Red Canyon area of influence.
