The Yellowknife Greenstone Belt contains numerous Shear Zone-hosted gold deposits:
- Giant Yellowknife Gold Mine - past production 8 million oz Au

- Over 95% of the shear zones are not exposed, underlying lakes and swamps.
- Trench results show potentially economic grades over potentially minable widths, including:
7.22 gpt gold over 6.0 m
2.79 gpt gold over 5.3 m
2.89 gpt gold over 0.7 m
2.23 gpt gold over 3.9 m
