In 1988 the NICAM joint-venture between the Nissho-Iwai Corporation and Austpac Gold NL undertook exploration in the Togi Goldfield. Work completed included mapping, rock and soil sampling, and CSAMT surveys and included four diamond drill holes in 1990. A summary of this work is included in Figure 2 with gold in rock values, alteration mapping and the 1990 drill hole locations and intercepts. Drilling intercepted anomalous gold values including an 11.3 metre interval of silicification and brecciation averaging 0.45 g/t gold, including 1.85m @ 2.72 g/t gold from 335.6 meters downhole³. The four reported drill holes are anomalous and encouraging but have insufficiently tested the seven-kilometre corridor.

Areas of intense clay alteration seen along road cuts between the Hirochi and Urugami deposits suggest continuity of the hydrothermal system between the two main deposit groups, and along the seven kilometre structural trend³, further emphasizing exploration potential. Additional reconnaissance work is planned at Togi for 2019.
