The Ishkoday Project is located in northwestern\n \n Ontario\n \n , 56 kilometres west of\n \n Geraldton\n \n , and just 10 kilometres north of the Trans-Canada highway No. 11 along Provincial Road 801.\n \n \n The Ishkoday Property features numerous occurrences of gold and polymetallic mineralization, which comprise multiple centimetre to metre wide veins and related mineralized zones, over a 6 km long and up to 1 km wide overall trend.\n \n \n Over the past two years, an interpretive breakthrough by LAURION's team of geologists has allowed for significant advances on the Ishkoday Project. It suggests that Ishkoday occurrences are the product of two separate and distinct mineralizing events separated in time by 40 million years. Both mineralizing events are believed to be exploiting the same structural pathways. The mineralization can be classified as: (i) epithermal polymetallic sulphide veins; and (ii) mesothermal (orogenic) quartz vein hosted gold.\n \n \n The 2023 exploration campaign will focus on the orogenic gold corridor associated with the Niish Shear Zone, and those areas where there is potential for a sufficient concentration/density of the several well-mineralized veins. Given insights derived from the recent breakthrough work, the area within the western sector of the Ishkoday Property, and particularly the area between the historical Sturgeon River and Brenbar Mines, is of marked interest. The historic Sturgeon River Mine data further suggests that mine...
