The property is located in Eureka County, Nevada and is situated near several existing gold mines.  Eight miles north of the Golden Snow Project is the East Archimedes Gold Mine where Barrick Gold Corporation is currently mining a Carlin-type sediment hosted gold deposit (677,000 ounces mined, 1.1 million ounces resource/reserve, as reported by the Geological Society of Nevada 2006 Special Publication #43.).  The Golden Snow Project is also contiguous to the southern end of Staccato Gold's South Eureka property, where Staccato has identified several mineralized areas and has defined a gold resource estimate at the Lookout Mountain deposit.

Substantial exploration has been conducted on the property including geologic mapping, 932 soil samples and detailed ground-based gravity geophysical surveys. Based on this work, several distinct target zones have been outlined and it is interpreted that the Ratto Ridge Fault zone, which controls the mineralization on the South Eureka property, continues south onto the Golden Snow property. These target areas are well located and permitting with the U.S. Bureau of Land Management (BLM) for a Phase I drilling program is set to begin.
