The Molasses Brook Project consists of five claim blocks covering 421 hectares, located in central New Brunswick, approximately 65 km north of Fredericton. The claims were staked to cover historical soil geochemical anomalies with strongly anomalous metal values over extensive areas that may be indicative of molybdenum, tungsten, tin, and associated mineralization similar to the Burnthill Tungsten deposit and other granite-related occurrences in the area. The claims are located approximately 5 km northeast of the Burnthill Tungsten Mine (tungsten, molybdenum, tin, beryllium, bismuth, copper, fluorine, gold, lead, titanium, zinc) and 2.5 km northeast of the Tin Hill showing (lead, molybdenum, silver, tin, tungsten, zinc). The Clearwater Brook and Molasses Brook mineral occurrences have been documented on claim block 10291; however, no significant assay values are known. The Clearwater Brook occurrence is described as chalcopyrite, pyrite and arsenopyrite occurring in quartz veins cutting hornfels-ed Cambro-Ordovician argillite and quartzite of the Tetagouche Group. The Molasses Brook occurrence is described as massive bedded pyrite in Tetagouche Group chert and argillite, adjacent to Ordovician basalt. The northern group of claims are underlain by Devonian granite and Cambrian-Ordovician sedimentary rocks (Miramichi Group). Claim block 11182 located to the southeast is underlain with Ordovician sedimentary rocks and minor mafic (+/-felsic) volcanic rocks (Tetagouche Group).

A significant molybdenum soil anomaly had been reported by Miramichi Lumber Company in 1975 (report of work 472501) and a limited confirmatory survey has returned strongly anomalous values of up to 106 ppm molybdenum, 37 ppm tungsten, 0.08% tin, 8.0 ppm silver and 144 ppm Pb. An IP survey has identified anomalous chargeability and resistivity results that is coincident with and proximal to anomalous soil values.

Brunswick Mining & Smelting (BM&S) reported a soil survey in 1984 that identified significant Pb-Zn-Cu-Ag anomalies on current claim block 11182. BM&S was looking for volcanogenic massive sulphide deposits at the time and indicated that further work would depend on results of a gravity survey that was in progress. No further work was reported by BM&S; however, the association of Pb-Zn-Cu-Ag with the Tin Hill and/or Burnthill occurrences and proximity to those mineralized zones indicates the anomalous soil may be related to similar granite-related mineralization.
