Pen Gold Project Summary
  • The Company's activities are exclusively focused on exploring the Pen Gold Project, comprising approximately 16,400 hectares (approximately 160 sq km) located on Highway 101, 75 km south west of Timmins, Ontario. Appendix A. The project is approximately 45 km southwest of Lake Shore Gold's Timmins West Mine and the newly discovered 144 Exploration Area.
  • Pen Gold Project appears to be on the western extension of the Porcupine-Destor Fault Zone (PDFZ), one of the most productive gold structures in the world. This fault zone extends east into Quebec and hosts many of the largest and most famous gold mines in Canada. The Timmins Camp has produced approximately 72.5 million ounces to date.
  • Recent work by the Ontario Geologic Survey and the Company on the Pen Gold Project, confirms the presence of key geologic features seen in many Timmins Camp PDFZ-related gold deposits in the belt. This work highlights that the Pen Gold Project area has been under-explored and that prospectivity of a large scale gold deposit exists in the project area. Therefore, a long term, systematic exploration approach must be developed to ensure that the project is given the attention it deserves.
  • Lake Shore Gold are conducting an extensive exploration program on 144 Exploration Area, which is outlined in a very comprehensive section of the company's website (www.lsgold.com/Mines-Projects-Properties/Review-of-Properties/Timmins-West-complex/144-Gap-Zone-Discovery/default.aspx).
  • Pen Gold Project is located approximately 85 km northeast of Goldcorp's Borden Gold Project. Goldcorp acquired this project in the takeover of Probe Mines, on March 13 2015, for $526 million. Goldcorp are actively advancing the Borden Gold Project as a source of ore for the 11,000 tpd Dome Mill, located 160 km away in Timmins. Appendix A shows the locations of the 144 and Borden projects in relation to Pen Gold Project.
