Mineral resource
The Peak Gold deposit is located on top of a group of low hills in the northern part of the Tetlin Lease. It is accessible from the Alaska Hwy via a 15-kilometer exploration road. To date we have outlined a 1.3 million ounces of Measured + Indicated gold resources averaging 4g/t gold and 14g/t silver in a skarn type mineral deposit. The deposit is well defined with a total of 55,321 meters (181,500 feet) of drilling in 300 drill holes and including 30,989 individual assay intervals.
Projects
["Lucky Shot Project: The Lucky Shot property includes 725 acres of patented mining claims and 7,865 acres of State of Alaska mining claims totaling approximately 8,590 acres which cover three former producing gold mines in the Willow Mining District located in south central Alaska. The three former mines include the Coleman, Lucky Shot and War Baby mines located on the acquired mineral title. The Coleman, Lucky Shot and War Baby mines are located along a continuous low angle structural zone occupied by a series high-grade quartz vein hosting free gold and minor sulfide and telluride mineralization. The vein and structural corridor are hosted by a granodiorite composition intrusion of Cretaceous age. The Lucky Shot project consists of a mine site located 180 road kilometers (112 road miles) north of Anchorage, Alaska, and a processing site located about 48 road kilometers (30 road miles) west of the mine site. Infrastructure is excellent with road access between the mine site and plant site via unsealed secondary road, sealed 2-lane highway, and the 4-lane Parks Highway connecting Anchorage and Fairbanks.","Eagle: The 64,900 acres Eagle claim block was staked in 2012 and 2013 to cover favorable Peak Gold stratigraphy mapped along trend by State Geologists. The Eagle block is underlain by similar geology as the northern Tetlin Hills and limited reconnaissance stream sediment and pan concentrate samples collected by Federal government agencies in the 1970’s revealed widespread copper and arsenic anomalies within the area now covered by the Eagle claims. In 2013 a reconnaissance level stream sediment and pan concentrate sampling program was completed over most of the southern part of the Eagle claim block and identified an area over 10 kilometers along a NW corridor where every creek draining the northeast slopes of the mountains are strongly anomalous in gold, arsenic and copper. Further sampling continued along the northwest trend shows additional anomalous creeks up towards the Dome prospect, albeit far fewer streams have been sampled. Follow up field exploration is planned for this exciting early-stage project during the 2021 field program. A $3M program is planned for Eagle, Hona and Triple Z targets. The objective of the geologic investigation on the Eagle claim block will focus on identifying drill targets in the highly prospective area between the Eagle and Dome prospects.","Manh Choh Project: The Peak Gold deposit is located on top of a group of low hills in the northern part of the Tetlin Lease. It is accessible from the Alaska Hwy via a 15-kilometer exploration road. To date we have outlined a 1.3 million ounces of Measured + Indicated gold resources averaging 4g/t gold and 14g/t silver in a skarn type mineral deposit.
