Mapping and sampling focus will shortly switch to the May-Qu target on the south of the Mahtin property to prepare the area for the second phase of exploratory drilling in the coming weeks.
Mahtin Property
The Mahtin Property is synonymous in geological setting and mineralization style as Victoria Gold's Eagle Gold Project, 40km away to the northeast. Mineralization has been identified in association with two intrusive stocks: Sprague Creek (3.6 x 1.5km) and Bos Stocks (4 x 1.1km). It is generally understood that the best mineralization in the Mayo area occurs along a '070' degree trend along the northern contacts of Cretaceous-aged granodiorite intrusions, diagnostic qualities that are observed in both Mahtin stocks.
Historic exploration on site included the collection of 18,406 soil samples across the entire property, airborne geophysical surveys, mapping and sampling.
