Highlights:

• Past producing property
• High-grade copper targets
• Drill ready

Target: Copper – Skarn-type deposits

Location: 

The Lobo del Norte Project consists of 27 mineral claims located in southern Yukon Territory approximately 20 kilometers southwest of the city of Whitehorse.  The claims are located in the Whitehorse Copper Belt, which is the Yukon’s most significant historic copper producing region, and consists of a 30 kilometer long trend of high grade copper deposits.

History:

The Lobo del Norte project is a historic producer and contains several mineralized occurrences.  In 1971, two separate open pits were mined on the project while an additional underground operation was being prepared.  Historic production from the open-pit operations was 159,000 tonnes grading 0.95% Cu and 187,000 tonnes at 1.33% Cu, 0.24 g/t Au, 12.34 g/t Ag, and 0.008% Mo, respectively*. 

Due to the property’s proximity to Whitehorse and accessibility, drilling and exploration at Lobo del Norte is possible year round.  Historic work on the project is extensive and several mineralized copper deposits and occurrences have been identified that remain to be tested and fully defined using modern geoscience techniques.

*These historic production figures pre-date the implementation of NI 43-101 and although believed to be reliable by management should not be relied upon as such.
