Hawkmoon Resources Corp. acquired 100% interests in the Barriere and Gilnockie projects from Strata GeoData Services Ltd. for $42,144 and $21,425, respectively. The Barriere project consists of 32.5 square kilometres of mineral claims located 45 minutes North of the city of Kamloops and 7km West of North Barriere Lake.

The area is highly accessible due to the network of all-weather roads and forestry service roads that are well maintained in the summer months. The area has been explored for the past 40 years and hosts several sulphide and polymetallic deposits, some of which became small scale workings in the early 1900s. The Gilnockie project covers a package of land in southeastern British Columbia that is prospective for sedimentary-hosted copper deposits.

The area is principally subdued, with rounded, forested mountains. A large network of roads and trails create excellent access due to widespread logging activity over the last three decades. The project lies within the Purcell anticlinorium, a gently north-plunging structure that is cored by Paleoproterozoic sedimentary and minor volcanic rocks of the Purcell Supergroup.

Belt-Purcell rocks host a variety of base-metal mineralization styles genetically related to basin evolution and deformation, with principal deposit types including the lead–zinc–silver sedimentary exhalative (SEDEX) mineralization at the Sullivan Mine (Kimberley, British Columbia), certain mesothermal lead–zinc–silver veins of the Coeur d'Alene district, Idaho, deposits of the Idaho cobalt belt (e. g., Blackbird), sediment-hosted stratiform copper-silver deposits at Spar Lake, Montanore, and Rock Creek, Montana, and the copper–cobalt–silver mineralization at Black Butte (Sheep Creek) in the Helena embayment, Montana. Sediment-hosted stratiform copper-silver mineralization is common in the Middle Creston strata that lie within the project is a correlative lithostratigraphic unit of the Ravalli Group of western Montana.
