The Makkovik River property consists of 200 claims (50 square kilometers) in the Makkovik River area of east central Labrador, 15 to 25 km to the east-southeast of the town of Postville. The claims were acquired by staking in the fall of 2006 when Exempt Mineral Lands were released for staking. The property lies within Labrador Inuit Settlement Area (LISA) Lands, which are jointly administered by the Nunatsiavut and Newfoundland and Labrador governments.

Exploration in 2007 consisted of limited first pass prospecting in the late summer and an airborne radiometric/magnetic survey by McPhar Airborne Surveys in the fall of 2007. The prospecting located uranium-bearing boulders along a northeast trending zone that is approximately 1,500 to 2,000 meters in length. The mineralization is hosted in sheared/hematitized extrusive and intrusive rocks with float samples giving values from 0.049% to 0.733% U308. Scintillometer readings were also taken along traverse lines where bedrock was exposed or in areas where mineralized boulders were located. No follow up has taken place.
