Electromagnetic Surveys
A SPECTREM airborne EM-mag survey was undertaken in
July 2004;
however, the survey was terminated early because of technical problems
associated with
the presence of thick conductive serpentinized
ultramafics which limited the depth penetration capability
of the
airborne system. The structural
interpretation was based on analysis of the regional and
project area
airborne magnetic data and outlined a number of potential targets
warranting ground
follow-up.

Broxson, is supported
by a solid infrastructure: it is accessible from
two paved highways and borders the Alaska Pipeline

production in late 2005. NASA's Phoenix lander is designed
to examine the site for
potential habitats for water ice, and to look for possible indicators of

aided by
data provided by the Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter launching in August,

officially called the MAN Alaska Project, is located 164 miles
