The claims are located immediately west and north of the original Patriot claim block. The claims were staked after identification of three gold bearing vein systems not related to the Moss Mine vein. Geologic mapping and geochemical sampling has been initiated on these new targets as well as the western extension of the Moss Mine vein. It is believed by management that this program will identify new drilling targets that may further expand the current resource at Moss.
On January 27, 2010 Patriot announced a drill indicated gold-silver resource of 20.8 million tons grading 0.028 oz/ton gold equivalent for a total of 591,750 ounces (gold equivalent).
