Buckhorn 2.0 surrounds Crown/Kinross patented claims on which the past producing Buckhorn Mine is situated. The project extends more then 10 km to the Canadian-USA border, along the western margin of the Torada Graben.
The Buckhorn Mine (formerly named Crown Jewel) was discovered by Crown Resources Corp in 1988. Crown Resources Corp. and Kinross Gold Corp. merged in 2003. The mine produced approximately 1.3 million ounces of gold at an average grade of about 12 g/t gold between 2008 and 2017.
Work is underway on the project, focusing on mapping rock types favourable for gold mineralization in the area. That mapping has located historic mine workings, a number of which have been sampled. A total of 76 rock samples have been submitted to the laboratory for analysis. Detailed ground magnetic surveying and soil sampling over areas of interest is scheduled to commence next week.
Jim Ebisch, P. Geo., a Qualified Person as defined by National Instrument 43-101, has reviewed data associated with the project.
