The Project is accessible by established logging roads and is situated in a well-known historic tungsten mining district.

Tungsten mineralization at Burnt Hill was first discovered in the late 1800s, with documented production occurring in 1915 and again between 1952 and 1956.

Mineralization at Burnt Hill is hosted in quartz veins associated with granitic intrusions within the Miramichi Terrane. The principal mineral assemblage includes wolframite, molybdenite, cassiterite, and pyrrhotite.
