Projects
["Johnson Tract Project: Exceptional high-grade gold asset in accessible Southcentral Alaska. Contango Silver & Gold acquired HighGold in July 2024 to focus on advancing the Johnson Tract Project – a project that fits the Contango Direct Shipping Ore (DSO) model. Johnson Tract (JT) is a polymetallic (gold, zinc, copper, silver, lead) project located near tidewater, 125 miles (200 kilometers) southwest of Anchorage, Alaska, USA. The 21,000-acre property includes the high-grade JT Deposit, a newly discovered Ellis Zone, and at least nine (9) other mineral prospects over a 12-kilometre strike length. HighGold acquired the Project through a lease agreement with Cook Inlet Region, Inc. (CIRI), one of 12 land-based Alaska Native regional corporations created by the Alaska Native Claims Settlement Act of 1971. CIRI is owned by more than 9,100 shareholders who are primarily of Alaska Native descent. Originally explored from 1982 to 1995, the Project was inactive for almost 25 years prior to acquisition by HighGold in 2019. The large land package is underexplored and has significant exploration potential. Contango will focus on expanding and developing the JT Deposit and Ellis Zones in addition to generating new discoveries. Contango is advancing elements that will facilitate eventual mining at the JT Deposit, including an expanded airstrip, an underground access ramp to expand and upgrade the resource, and a road to a barge landing at the coast. Baseline studies, permitting, and design work are underway. With an existing high-grade resource at Johnson Tract that will only increase with further drilling, the Company is assessing opportunities for near term production. The JT project is conveniently located close to tidewater which presents a unique opportunity for directly shipping ore mined at JT by barge to an existing mill facility."]
