GoldInxs Mining said on 20 October it had begun its first drill program at the Fishpot project in central British Columbia. The company is testing priority targets developed from a 53.4-line-kilometre 3D induced-polarization survey, alongside magnetic data, geochemical sampling, geological mapping and other geophysical work.

At the Lightening Zone target, IP resistivity and chargeability anomalies overlap beneath a surface silica-alteration area the company describes as 2 kilometres by 500 metres. The program is investigating epithermal gold-silver and porphyry-style copper-gold possibilities. No drill results have been announced; these target descriptions are exploration interpretations, not a discovery or an economic resource.
