 property located 60km southeast of Kugluktuk, Nunavut Kugluktuk (Inuinnaqtun: Qurluktuk, Inuktitut: ᖁᕐᓗᖅᑐᖅ, formerly Coppermine until 1 January, 1996) is a hamlet located in Nunavut, Canada, on Coronation Gulf, southwest of Victoria Island. , Canada.

Drilling performed in the 1960's delineated 4.16 million tons of 2.96% copper in the "Dot 47" discovery zone. This resource estimate does not meet NI-43 101 standards however, it is a significant historical estimate. Drilling only tested 500 meters of strike length to a depth of 152 meters.

A ground geophysical survey carried out in 2002 delineated a 10km by 4km 10 mgal gravity anomaly A gravity anomaly is the difference between the observed gravity and a value predicted from a model. Geodesy and geophysics
In geodesy and geophysics, the usual model is the surface of a global spheroid (ellipsoid of Hayford or WGS84) by rather simple formulae (2 functions of
. A 2000 meter diamond drill program completed during the 2003 field season confirmed that the "DOT 47" copper discovery zone continues along strike to the northeast and southwest as well as extending down dip. Diamond drill hole 2003-47-1 returned 56.39m grading 1.48% copper, including 15.59m grading 3.38% copper. Diamond drill hole 2003-47-2 returned 72.79m grading 1.63% copper, including 7.73m grading 5.27% copper. Diamond drill hole 2003-47-3 returned 98.05m grading 0.93% copper, including 30.0m grading 1.34% copper.

The Company is presently interpreting the new airborne geophysical results. The Company is mobilizing for a 4000 meter diamond drill program on the property.

Coronation Minerals Inc. is a Company exploring for copper-nickel-platinum group ore bodies in the Canadian Arctic. Within the land package assembled by the Company there are at least 12 documented copper-silver occurrences as well as indications of platinum and gold.

The Company believes the property may host a major Cu/Ni/PGE ore body similar to that currently being mined in the Noril'sk region of Russia's high arctic High Arctic
