Eagle Plains Sponsors Sullivan Mineral Collection Display

16.01.2017  |  FSCwire

Cranbrook, British Columbia (FSCwire) - Eagle Plains Resources Ltd. (TSX-V: “EPL”) is pleased to assist in funding a museum-level display of ore and rock specimens as well as drill core from Sullivan mine and surrounding area which will be located in the Kimberley Underground Mining Railway Station. Mick Henningson, former Senior Vice President, Mining with TeckCominco, now President of the Sullivan Mine & Railroad Historical Society, has secured funding and with an intrepid group of volunteers is organizing construction for this project.

Drawings illustrating key elements of regional and mine geology will also be included in the display. Most of the specimens and core have been donated from the personal collection of Paul Ransom, with many ore specimens having been cut and polished to enhance mineral and textural details.

The Sullivan Core Shack will be an archive of specimens of one of the greatest lead-zinc-silver deposits on Earth. It will be organized in such a manner that the display will be of educational value to students at all levels and of viewing interest to the layman or professional. In addition to focusing on the orebody itself the display will cover aspects of the sedimentary, igneous and metamorphic rocks of the region as well as five local historic mines of note: the North Star and Stemwinder Mines also in Kimberley, the St. Eugene at Moyie, the Kootenay King at Fort Steele and the Estella at Wasa.

Eagle Plains Resources has been actively exploring in the East Kootenay region for “Sullivan–type” lead-zinc deposits and is proud to join the City of Kimberley, Teck Resources, Kootenay Zinc Corp., Redding Mining and Columbia Basin Trust through both the Columbia Kootenay Cultural Alliance and the RDEK administered Community Initiatives Program in sponsoring this project.
