Davidson Tisdale Property
Drill Results Table - View PDF
Davidson-Tisdale is a high-grade gold deposit located in North-Eastern Timmins, Ontario. The property is a joint venture between VG Gold and Laurion Mineral Exploration, with VG owning 68.5% and Laurion owning the remainder. The property was subject to minor production in 1988 by Getty Canadian Metals, with a total of 7,300 ounces of gold being mined.
The property is located approximately 5 km along strike from three mines – Hollinger, McIntyre, Coniarum, which have produced over 31 million ounces of gold. Davidson-Tisdale consists of 10 claims totaling 520 acres in the Tisdale Township neighboring the prolific Timmins gold mining camp.
Davidson-Tisdale was discovered in 1911 and has been explored intermittently over the years with a strong focus on the historical underground workings. Much of the drilling has been concentrated on two main areas with the deepest hole intersecting mineralization below 400 meters. Previous drilling results have yielded highly encouraging grades over good widths.

Several shafts have been developed on the property with a decline ramp driven to a vertical depth of 150 meters. Successful high-grade deep drilling has indicated this deposit is open at depth and has the potential for further bonanza grades. To date, over 71,000 meters has been drilled on this property and it still remains a great target for exploration. VG Gold is planning to test the potential at depths and other areas for high-grade gold mineralization.
