|  |  In early 2004, Cariboo Rose staked the Cowtrail claim over an airborne magnetic anomaly in Takla Group rocks five kilometres southeast of Imperial Metal's Mount Polley Mine. The property was targeted on the basis of a regional magnetic signature analogous to the Mount Polley mine, combined with the occurrence of a copper-gold showing. Access The Property is accessible year round on moderate terrain by a series of logging roads. Geology The Cowtrail property covers a magnetic feature that extends to the northwest from a buried weakly mineralized alkalic intrusive discovered by drilling completed by Eastfield Resources and Imperial Metals Corporation in 1998. The Cowtrail property is contiguous and to the north of the Gold Fields Canada Exploration and Consolidated Woodjam Copper Corp. Woodjam Project. The property is located in the Quesnel Trough, a large regional depositional belt extending 2,000 km from the U.S. border in the south to the Stikine River in the north. The region hosts several large tonnage copper-gold 'porphyry type' deposits including Imperial Metals' Mount Polley Mine, Barkerville Gold's QR Mine, Thompson Creek Metals' Mt. Milligan deposit (in development) and Northgate's Kemess Mine. In addition, Taseko's Gibraltar Cu-Mo mine lies 50 km to the west of Woodjam, outside the Quesnel Trough. Quesnel Trough alkali-porphyry deposits typically occur in basalts and andesitic flows, fragmental rocks and alkalic intrusive complexes. They are generally gold-copper deposits consisting of chalcopyrite-pyrite and minor bornite sulphide mineralization. Sulphide zones are developed adjacent to concentrically-zoned alkaline plutons that are themselves seldom sulphide bearing. Recent Work Dajin Resources Corporation completed 35 kilometres of an induced polarization survey in 2006. Drilling in 2007 to follow up made a new discovery which intersected 1.16 g/t Gold over 18.3 Metres. The property was again drilled by Dajin in 2011. Status The Cowtrail property is a 65%/35% joint venture between Dajin Resources and Cariboo Rose. Maps
