The base and precious metal deposits reflect a variety of depositional environments, including Au-Cu+/-Mo porphyry, precious metal-rich polymetallic veins and Au/Ag-rich volcanogenic massive sulphides. Within 50 kilometers of the Kirkham property, the mineral endowment exceeds 100 million ounces of gold in N.I. compliant resources and historical production, as summarized in the table below.

By: Lesley Stokes May 6, 2015 Northern Miner - Volume 101 Number 13 May 11 - 17, 2015 VANCOUVER — Geologists Jeff Kyba and Joanne Nelson from the B.C. Geological Survey may have unlocked the secret to world-class porphyry- and intrusion-related gold-copper deposits in northwestern B.C. They’ve discovered that most of the major deposits in the region

  • ccur within 2 km of a regional stratigraphic contact, and according to Kyba, there are

lithological and structural clues to narrow that window even more. “The contact represents a period in earth’s history when a lot of deposits in B.C. were forming,” Kyba says during an interview with The Northern Miner. “But no one really knows what controlled their emplacement and where best to look. We’re trying to answer that question, and so far the results are exciting.” Northwest B.C. contains the remnants of a much larger, ancient volcanic arc — similar to the present-day Philippines — called the Stikine terrane. Between 220 and 175 million years ago, subduction and volcanism along the arc promoted the emplacement of world- class deposits such as KSM, Brucejack, Eskay Creek, Schaft Creek and Red Chris — to name a few. But during the Cretaceous period, starting 144 million years ago, the metal-rich arc was compressed to nearly half its length as the margin of western North America collided with other

  • terranes. The deformation was so intense that it obliterated most structural clues related to the

main mineralizing event, making it difficult for explorers to locate the deposits. “The rocks here are much older than those in the Philippines or Indonesia, so they’ve been banged up quite a bit,” he says. “But just because the geology is more complex, doesn’t mean the deposits aren’t there.” Seabridge Gold’s (TSX: SEA; NYSE: SA) KSM deposit has total proven and probable reserves of 38.2 million oz. gold and 9.9 billion lb. copper at 2.2 billion tonnes of 0.55 gram gold per tonne and 0.21% copper. Pretium Resources’ (TSX: PVG; NYSE: PVG) Brucejack epithermal deposit has proven and probable reserves of 6.9 million oz. gold at 13.6 million tonnes of 15.7 grams gold.

“Over the past five years, the northwest Stikine has built its momentum towards becoming the world’s next big mineral province,” he says. “People are recognizing that these deposits have high-grade roots and big extensions they never thought were there.” Kyba and Nelson started their investigations at the KSM and Brucejack copper-gold camp, where Pretium geologists were finding evidence for an old tectonic event that influenced

  • mineralization. What they found was a unique package of basal conglomerates and turbidites

along the Stuhini-Hazelton group stratigraphic contact. “To a geologist, these rocks indicate a hiatus in ancient volcanism and an increase in earthquake activity,” he explains. “The land was uplifted along faults, and near its edges, the rocks were eroded and deposited into the basin below.” Kyba believes this tectonism provided the framework for metal-rich fluids and intrusions to migrate along when volcanism resumed during Hazelton time. “You don’t see these conglomerates everywhere in the region, and that’s the whole point,” he says. “The idea is if you see them, you’re near a basin-bounding structure that may be hosting something big.” But a change in lithology across the contact isn’t the only thing Kyba suggests is a useful proxy to finding “nation-building” ore deposits. Brucejack and KSM are both encased in a large halo of a highly deformed, quartz-sericite-altered host rock. Immediately east is a large, Cretaceous-aged thrust fault called “sulphurets” that caps the altered ore host. Kyba reckons that it’s no coincidence the prominent fault is so close to the deposits. “When the Stikine was compressed, all the prospective structures bounding these old basins were slippery because of the alteration associated with the porphyries. So they were the first to fail, and became reactivated as younger, prominent thrust faults.” Kyba mentions he has an “open-door” policy on the data he uses, and offers explorers a geological map that highlights the prospective contact as a thick, red line.“If you’re near that red line, and there’s a clastic sequence coupled with large-scale faults, then you might be in the neighbourhood of B.C.’s next big deposit,” he says. “And knowing that is a big game changer for explorers in the region, because it’ll get them closer to making a discovery.”

Airborne Survey – Resistivity Results

A localized EM and magnetic response

  • ccurs on two lines near the base of a steep

north facing slope. This response is particularly interesting since geochemical sampling downslope generated anomalous Cu/Zn/Au/As values.

high and low resistivity zone occurs in the north central part

resistivity zone is interpreted to be caused by alteration and possibly sulphide mineralization. The broad magnetic anomaly is interpreted to be the expression

source for the mineralization discovered to

also coincides with the zone, suggesting a dioritic intrusion. At the south end of the above mentioned quartz monzonitic intrusive, a zone

the 2km sized mag/resistivity anomaly mentioned above, a localized EM and magnetic response occurs on two lines near the base of a steep north facing slope. This response is particularly interesting since geochemical sampling downslope generated anomalous Cu/Zn/Au/As

  • values. The directly associated negative 300nT

response suggests remanence magnetism from a body emplaced at a time when the earth’s field was reversed.

  • Modeling of the VTEM electromagnetic response

suggests a 15 Siemen, west dipping, approx. 300M target at a shallow depth of about 40M. The combined geochemical and geophysical response is interpreted as a possible gold bearing massive sulphide target. It occurs about 200M west of the Hawlison monzonite. This target is about 20kms southwest of Barrick Gold’s Eskay Creek mine.

  • The isolated conductors have not been tested to

date and represent very attractive targets suitable for follow-up. In several cases, these conductors are related to silt and soil geochemical anomalies or prospective rock-types such as rhyolites.
