The C3 Property.

2,102.64 hectares across four contiguous mineral claims in the Cowichan Valley, Vancouver Island — 100% held by Fields of Gold Corp., centred at 48.88° N, 124.00° W on NTS sheets 92C/16 and 92B/13.

Access is via the all-weather Chemainus Main logging road off Highway 1, with smaller logging roads reaching much of the property under a gate- access agreement with Mosaic Forest Management.

The maritime climate keeps winters mild and the exploration season effectively year-round. Duncan (27 km) provides local services; Nanaimo (76 km) offers a deep-water port and mining services; Victoria International Airport is 106 km away. Extensive recent logging has opened new road access and improved ground visibility across the claims.

03
The property lies within the Wrangellia Terrane of southern Vancouver Island. It is underlain by cherty argillites of the Mississippian– Pennsylvanian Fourth Lake Formation and volcaniclastics of the Upper Devonian McLaughlin Ridge Formation, intruded by granodiorite and quartz diorite of the Jurassic Island Plutonic Suite and by Triassic gabbro.
Sulphide mineralization — pyrite, chalcopyrite, with local galena and sphalerite — occurs in rusty shear zones as disseminations and stringers along bedding, cleavage, and crosscutting fractures, and in quartz-carbonate veins spatially associated with gabbroic dykes. Alteration styles observed in 2024, including sericitization with sulphides, suggest a potentially hydrothermal Cu–Au system.
