This property is 100% owned by Chibougamau Independent Mines Inc. which gained control after Globex transferred the property effective December 29, 2012. It consists of 8 claims totaling 172 hectares and is subject to a 3% gross metal royalty to Globex.

Campbell Chibougamau Mines first opened a drift under Doré Lake at the 120-metre level to join the shaft at the Main Mine with the Kokko Creek deposit. Mining was done from underground and later by open pit. Another drift at the 245-metre level was driven from the Main Merrill Mine. Records indicate that during the period 1959 to 1975, 745,169 tons grading 1.15% Cu and 0.24 g/t Au were mined and that a non NI 43-101 compliant historic resource of 115,000 tons grading 1.48% Cu and 0.21 g/t Au was reported after the closing of the mine.
