Visitor generated maps can be printed with a detailed legend in a printer friendly format Refers to an optional document format on the Web that enables the printing of the page correctly on standard 8.5" x 11" paper. When a Web page is printed as is, text and images may be truncated or not print at all, and poorly located page breaks waste paper. .

Viewable project data includes:

- 325+ diamond drill holes from 1995 to 2004 can be queried to display assay tables and cross section figures.

- 10,000+ soil samples between Mt. Tom and Barkerville dating from the 1970's to 2001, symbolized to represent your choice of 32 elements. Sample points can be queried to show the results of each element assayed.

The website is updated periodically, adding new tools, new exploration data and newly compiled historic data.

As the project progresses, new datasets will include more geophysics surveys, hundreds of drill holes, thousands of additional soil samples, environmental assessment and permitting data, and other information drawn from company records and assessment reports from across the Barkerville Gold Camp.

The website is powered by MapServer and PostGIS, which are cutting edge mapping and spatial database software that are open source (free) and allow the development of powerful tools without the large investment required simply to purchase the standard software.

The Cariboo Gold Project's land holdings now cover 456 square kilometers (170 square miles) covering 57 kilometers (34 miles) in length and over 8 kilometers (5 miles) in width. In the Barkerville Camp, 79 creeks have reported placer gold production. Recorded production from the area was 3.8 million ounces of gold (2.6 million ounces from placer and 1.2 million ounces from lode mining.
