Here is a post by stocksgonewild from another board which is annotated to show the location of the sites mentioned in the Govt. Report.
-----------------------------------------------------
See the three circles? The one on the bottom is the Gullbridge mine...
The Gullbridge Property hosts several historic base metal occurrences
including the past producing Gullbridge Mine where "ore reserves"
reported in 1953 stood at 4.35 million tonnes grading 1.24% copper, based
on a Newfoundland assessment file report titled "Geological Synthesis and
Interpretation of the Gullbridge Property" by Dr. J.H. Akkerman, Ph.D.

***The middle circle is our Handcamp-MAC Zone Claims...if my DD is correct our claims span all along that yellow early to middle Ordovician zone on the map...same zone as the Gullbridge mine...
Handcamp Gold Property
High grade – Gold, Copper, Zinc , Lead & Silver. The "Handcamp" is located approximately 33km north of Badger, central Newfoundland and
10km northeast of the old abandoned "Gullbridge" copper mine. Abandoned logging roads run through the property allowing for excellent accessibility and mobility of heavy equipment. One 50m wide mineralized zone lies within a stratabound structurally complex zone which lies near a major east-directed thrust within the Roberts Arm Group and is reflected in folding, shearing and mylonite development. Superimposed on the volcanogenic sulphide mineralization is epigenetic disseminated gold mineralization. The best sulphide mineralization is associated with sericite schist with veinlets and dissemination having been traced over a strike length of 1200m. 44 line kms of grid work was cut at 100m spacings east and west of a 2km baseline on the Handcamp property by Dennis Rowsell and company. 1700 soil samples were collected along the grid at 25m spacings of which 150 samples were assayed for gold and base metals displaying excellent results. The central core of the grid was prospected by foot leaving much more to be done in 2010. Rock samples were collected over the prospected areas
with numerous samples showing very significant mineral content with some gold numbers as high as 158g/t Au, 94g/t Au, 82g/t Au. along with excellent Zn, CU, Ag numbers ( massive to simi-massive sulphides ).A chip sample was cut over the main Handcamp gold showing averaging 7.1g/t Au over 8m (27ft). Due to the world interest in gold, this property will become the focus for Kat Exploration over the next years.

And dont forget about our other claims:
Colliers Property
Mineralization consisting of chalcopyrite, bornite and calcite which occurs as patches and as fillings of fractures in the andesitic and basaltic rocks of the Harbour Main Group. The occurrence consists of an old working with a 90 foot (27 m) shaft. Malachite stains are abundant on the surface of the host rock. Copper Mineralization also occurs in the subaerial mafic volcanic rocks as occurrences which usually contain one or more of native copper, chalcocite, chalcopyrite, covellite and bornite in veins, amygdule fillings, disseminations and shear zones. This deposit was documented as early as 1868, and other than the 27m shaft this deposit has never been drilled off leaving much unknown about the source and amount of contained copper and silver within this deposit. Assays from the surrounding host rock yielded results as high as 23.60% Copper and 236.30 g/t silver.
Rusty Ridge Property
The Results of this phase of the exploration program was highly successful in idenifying coincidental magnetic IP reistivty and soil geochemical anomalies that suggest potential for a body of iron Oide +/- Base, Precious and Rare Earth type mineralization, similar in style and setting to the giant Olympic Dam deposit in Australia.
Olympic Dam and related deposits all occur within continental rift sequence rocks adjacent to major structures. The Rusty Ridge is located within a continental extensional enviroment within peralkaline rocks emplaced adjacent t a regional fault system. The presence of a large magnetic body that appear to be intrusive into the overlying rock sequenc that appear regionally altered, are variably pyreticand contain vein type fluorite mineralization and appars to suggest a magnetic origin for the mineraliztion.
A recently completed 3D inversion modeling of the airborne magnetic data, show a discreet, strong magnetic anomaly underlyin the rusty ridge area. Coincidental with this moderate to strong IP chargeability anomalies that suggest either, graphite or significant concentrations of sulphides. Graphite can be for the most part elminated as the rocks are terrestrial, not marine meaning that conductive argillaceous rocks would not be expected in this enviroment.
Anomalous levels of the Light Rare Earth Elements (LREE) crium and lanthanum, all present in Olympic Dam (and others) were not only detected in soils but also in rock samples as well. In addition, the soil geochemistry also produced anomalies in silver, gold, copper.
The host rocks for most of the mineral occcurances and the unit overlying the most intense portion of the magnetic anomaly is a brecciated, heatitic felsic volcanic rock, locally with veins of purple fluorite and disseminated pyrite.
This property as already generated a lot of interest from mining companies and is bing offered as a Joint Venture (JV) project.
Shaylee
Rock Types: Sericite schist derived from felsic volcanic and epiclastic sedimentary protholiths. The region is traversed by numerous faults, most of which are high-level brittle features. The most notable of these are the Charlottetown, Salmon Brook and Platter Cove Faults and the unnamed structure that defines the western boundary of the Love Cove Group. Some of these may represent brittle reactivation of earlier, more fundamental structures. The Shaylee copper mineralization is in a rock cut on the Bunyon's Cove road. The mineralization is approx 75m wide and continues to the shoreline approximately 1km and consists of stringers of native copper, Chalcocite and Malachite staining. Continuing along the road approximately 200m, there is another copper zone containing Chalcocite and Malachite. This showing is approximately 50m wide
South Lucky Copper
Copper mineralization is quite visible in an old pit near the gravel road and impressive malachite staining along with chalcocite is strata bound within the more sandy beds of the sediments. The horizon that hosts the mineralization has been traced for approx. 17kms with copper mineralization at a thickness of 300ft in places and assay results of 2.5% Cu has been discovered in exposed areas in the pit from within this horizon. This type of environment has the potential to produce low grade, large tonnage copper deposits similar to those of the Zambia copper belt. More ground work is planned for the Northern portion of the property in the upcoming season.
