Intrusion-related gold mineralization, large tonnage gold-copper porphyry-style mineralization, paleo-placer style mineralizationPROJECT Highlights
- 100% owner with no underlying royalties.
- Located 35 km northwest of Kamloops BC via year-round road access within the Kamloops Mining Division which is host to several active mines including New Gold’s (TSX:NGD) New Afton Mine.
- Prospective for intrusion-related gold mineralization in addition to other related styles of mineralization such as large bulk tonnage gold-copper porphyry-style mineralization and paleo-placer style of mineralization.
- Exploration in the region dates back to the 1970’s and 1980’s with the discovery of gold mineralization in several clusters of quartz vein float material over a diorite intrusion with grades varying from 3.4 to 547 g/t gold . The Property adjoins the Bonaparte deposit which has seen extensive historic exploration including underground development, open pit mining, and a bulk sampling which yielded grades of 26.5 g/t gold from a 3,700 metric tonne bulk sample.*
