Here's a good interactive map you might enjoy. It has many layers but if you shut off a few of them you can see places where sampling has occurred for many minerals. Click OFF all the layers and only leave the resource estimate and metalic mineral occurrence layers on. Then look WSW of Edmonton to the Blue Rapids area, 83G03 on the grid. The sample there is very intriguing. 85 grams of gold per ton. That's like almost 3 ounces in a yard of gravel. I called the map makers to see if this was an error and they assure me it isn't. The catch is the gold has 30 meters of overburden on it...so if you feel like digging a tunnel....
