Overview

Property Type
  • Porphyry Copper-Gold occurrence 6 km from the Galore Creek deposits
  • Flanked by a series of high-grade Gold-Silver veins
Size
  • Approximately 613 hectares
Status
  • 100% owned

Exploration Stage

  • Drilling in 1990 by previous operators discovered porphyry style copper mineralization on the southern fringe of the intrusion.
  • A small drilling program by Romios in 2007 intersected high-grade gold veins flanking the intrusion including 2.4 m @ 31.9 g/t Au.
  • Mapping along the western margin of the granitoid pluton in 2018 and 2019 identified disseminated copper mineralization in the pluton and some of the adjacent host rocks, as well as a pyrite alteration zone, a zone of strong potassic alteration, and float boulders of potassic altered, magnetite-veined granitic rocks. Several high-grade gold-copper assays were returned from quartz-sulphide veins and areas of thin chalcopyrite veining. Hyperspectral analysis of a suite of samples collected along the western margin of the pluton detected alteration minerals consistent with a porphyry Cu-Au system.
  • The majority of the porphyry, including the key central core area, is obscured by overburden. The project requires a geophysical survey (IP) to delineate the mineralized core of this system in advance of diamond drilling.

Location

  • The JW claim is in the NW corner of the “Golden Triangle” in northwestern British Columbia, 6 km northwest of the Galore Creek alkalic porphyry Cu-Au deposits.
