Oregon Gold, Inc., a subsidiary of Pacific Gold Corp., owns 16 placer mining claims covering 320 acres in Josephine County, Oregon. These claims are called the Bear Bench project and Defiance Mine. The property is located near the Illinois River in the Siskiyou National Forest, approximately 25 miles from Grants Pass. Mining in this area dates back to the mid-1800's.
A sample drilling program during May 2004 confirmed gold mineralization on the Company's mining claims, and further geological investigations by the Company indicate additional viable mineralization of gold and other minerals throughout the area.

The property is accessed by a gravel road that intersects a main highway. Maintenance of this road is moderate. In order to access some sections of the claims, a stream must be forded which limits the use of the road to drier climatic periods. The climate of the area is moderate, with daytime temperatures ranging from 40°F to over 100°F. The majority of the precipitation occurs from November to April.
