The Nordair Property is located south of the Eastmain River, west of the road from Matagami to Radisson, in James Bay (Quebec).

The property is immediately in the west extension of the „Lidge Claim“ and „Lucille“ showings held by Eastmain Resources Inc. These showings revealed several gold and copper values , including a drilling intersection which revealed values of 11.42 g/t Au and 0.13% Cu over 1.3 meters, at the interface between the basalts and tuffs. In addition, the Nordair Property is located less than 100 kilometers southwest from Goldcorp-s Eleonore Project which has estimated probable reserves of 12.48 Mtonnes @ 7.56 g/t Au as well as measured and indicated resources of 1.36 Mtonnes @ 10.95 g/t Au.
