Capella's 100% owned Tinton Gold Project is located 15 kilometres west-northwest of the famous and historic Homestake Mine in the Black Hills at Lead, South Dakota. The Homestake Mine produced 40 million ounces of gold from 1876 to 2001. Capella's Tinton property consists of 1270 hectares contained in 157 unpatented mining claims.

Two major plate scale structures intersect in the area of the northern Black Hills and over 45 million troy ounces of gold production have been realized at this tectonic intersection. Capella's Tinton Gold Project lies at this intersection along the Lewis & Clark Lineament and within the bounds of the broad Trans-Hudson Deformational Zone between the Lead and Tinton domes.
