QMC Quantum Minerals commenced trenching and sampling work with the support of helicopters on the mining project in Mugaha Gold property, in British Columbia. In 2006, Wealth Minerals discovered gold mineralization in this property by performing geological surveys and geological mapping.
British Columbia Gold Mine Project
The Mugaha Gold property is made up of complexly deformed and weakly metamorphosed rocks belonging to the Misinchinka Group. On carrying out hand trenching in the property, numerous veins and veinlets of mineralized quartz were traced to a distance of 120 m. Around 13 trenches were cut, from which were obtained gold values ranging from 1 g/t to 139.1 g/t at regular 1 m intervals.
The Mugaha Gold property lies 160 km north of Prince George and 15 km north of Mackenzie in British Columbia. The total area granted for mineralization in this property is 5,502 ha. Airport and helicopter facilities are available in Mackenzie, which is also well connected by road on its western side. Exploration can be comfortably carried out here during the period of May to October.
QMC Quantum Minerals plans to carry out the trenching with mini-backhoes belonging to the model CANDIG model 21. The advantage of using this backhoe is that land disturbances are minimal, and land reclamation is possible in a timely and effective manner. The management team of the company believes that the shareholder value can be enhanced by mining the gold deposits in the Mugaha Gold property.
