In 2012 Kluane Drilling Ltd. visited the Samp prospect and collected samples showing up to 18 ppb gold, 55.5 ppm molybdenum, 129 ppm lead, 5,600 ppm silver, 840 ppm arsenic, 70 ppm bismuth, 8639 ppm barium, >300 ppm tungsten, 45 ppm tin, 0.73 ppm tellurium, and 3.25 ppm thallium, including one sample containing an extremely rich 604.5 grams per tonne Au and >300 ppm silver. These numbers and other features found at the property are indicative of Carlin-type mineralization; this type of deposit represents some of the largest hydrothermal gold deposits in the world.

2012年，Kluane钻探有限公司访问了Samp勘探区，并收集了样品，样品中金含量高达18 ppb，钼含量为55.5 ppm，铅含量为129 ppm，银含量为5600 ppm，砷含量为840 ppm，铋含量为70 ppm，钡含量为8639 ppm，钨含量为300 ppm，锡含量为45 ppm，碲含量为0.73 ppm，铊含量为3.25 ppm，其中一个样品中每吨金含量为604.5克，银含量为300 ppm。这些数字和其他特征表明该矿床为卡林型成矿；这种类型的矿床代表了世界上最大的热液金矿床。
