Fall 2023 Exploration consisted of geochemical and geological mapping in the North of the property, yielding the following assays:
#H619230 22.2g/t gold, 48.0g/t silver, 0.63% copper, 8.11% zinc
#H619231 5.11g/t gold, 24.4 silver, 0.93% copper, 0.42% zinc
#H619232 1.18g/t gold, 71.8g/t silver, 3.12% copper, 0.27% zinc
#H619241 60.3g/t gold, 141g/t silver, 0.62% copper, 6.76% zinc
#H619233 and #H619234 were outside the mineralized zone
Fall 2023 Exploration consisted of 6 rock chip samples covering the Lupus and Lakeview Zones. Rock chip sampling consisted of geochemical analysis at
Historic Exploration
Although completed by qualified Geologists and Engineers, historic results are not NI-43101 compliant.
In addition, to the gold and polymetallic zones in the North of the property, the Murex breccia zones are located in the central part of the property and are interpreted as a collapsed volcanic dome structure with shallow-dipping thrust faults cut by steeply dipping faults associated with polymetallic Cu-Ag-Au-As-Sb-Mo-Te bearing sulphide mineralization. Historic work identified a 700m X 700m area, the
The property has been systematically explored, since 1957, by various operators including Noranda, now Glencore. Extensive previous exploration has occurred with the following significant drill intercepts:
