Highlights:

  • Highly prospective showings and anomalies identified
  • Drill ready

Target: Tungsten Polymetallic (gold-lead-zinc-silver) - Skarn-type deposits

Location: 

The WAU Project is located in central Yukon Territory about 50 kilometers northeast of the Keno Hill silver camp.  The project is comprised of 40 contiguous mineral claims totalling 800 hectares.

Ownership:

Option to earn up to 51% from ATAC Resources Ltd. 

History:             

The WAU property hosts a number of tungsten-bearing skarn occurrences, as well as recently discovered zones with strongly elevated gold-arsenic and lead-zinc-silver soil geochemistry.  Within the Yukon and neighbouring Northwest Territories, the largest and richest tungsten deposits are skarn related. The Cantung mine located on the southeast border of the Yukon, for example, is a skarn related deposit and is the western world’s largest operating tungsten mine.

Exploration at WAU in 2007 by ATAC Resources Ltd. consisted of extensive soil sampling, geological mapping, prospecting and property wide, helicopter-borne, VTEM and magnetic surveys. As a result of the work, several showings and geochemical and geophysical anomalies have been identified that are ready to be drill tested.
