Most of the concession is underlain by the mid-Cretaceous Los Ranchos formation which is host to the ore deposits of Pueblo Viejo system. Large zones hydrothermal alteration have been recognized with little follow-up work to date. Additional targets indicate zones of magnetite destruction characteristic of Pueblo Viejo-type of mineralization.

Everton has the option to acquire 50-per-cent interest in the property by incurring cumulative work expenditures of $500,000 (U.S) over a two-year period, with a minimum of $200,000 (U.S.) within the first year. Everton will issue to Linear a total of 200,000 common shares and pay option fees totalling $70,000 (U.S.) during the option period. A 50/50 joint venture will be created after Dec. 8, 2005.
