Ridge Target [Gold-Silver]
Location: Central Ball Creek Project, Golden Triangle, BC
Highlights:
- Sediment-hosted epithermal Au-Ag mineralization consists of structurally controlled polyphase silica alteration with locally strong pyrite and arsenopyrite
- Epithermal Au-Ag mineralization discovered in 2005 returned up to 19 and 59 g/t Au and 106 and 169 g/t Ag in silica breccias with py-aspy
- Soil sampling in 2006-7 outlined a 1 km wide Au-Ag-As-Sb anomaly; up to 4.1 g/t Au in soil samples; anomalies track N-S structures
- Additional targets include glacial boulders of vein material (explore for source) and veined volcanics
- Initial drilling in 2011 at the Ridge epithermal gold-silver zone, the first ever completed, intersected anomalous Au, Ag and Cu mineralization
