About

Karus Mining is an emerging Canadian gold explorer focused on advancing two high-grade gold projects in British Columbia. The company is backed by proven mine builders and is fully funded for a 2026 drill program, turning a district-scale land position into measurable value. With a combined land package of 1,133 km² and a systematic approach to exploration, Karus aims to de-risk discovery in the South Cariboo Gold District and Vancouver Island.

Mineral resource
The South Cariboo property spans 995 km² along the Eureka thrust within the prolific Cariboo Gold District. It holds two structurally-controlled orogenic gold systems — the flagship FG Gold deposit and the Gold Creek discovery — both extensively de-risked by decades of historical work and open for expansion. FG Gold is a sediment-hosted orogenic gold system where mineralization is focused into predictable, structurally-controlled corridors that fold around the NW-trending Eureka Syncline. Historical results from the 2021 drill program include notable intercepts such as FG-21-401 at 27.1 g/t Au over 1.6 m and FG-21-4011 at 1.3 g/t Au over 95.5 m. The Gold Creek project is a strategically-located gold system with a Spanish Mountain-style signature, adding a second growth engine within the district land package.
