Press Release Regarding Geology and
Mining Activities at
Asset #27(Mt. Boy) and Asset #26
(Reveille)
The company recently received a memo
from our Geologist Brian R. Bond regarding our second property Asset #27 (Mt.
Boy/Eureka) which has 58 claims covering 1,160 acres near Eureka, Nevada. The memo is shown here.
“GEOLOGICAL
SUMMARY, Mountain Boy Mining Claims, Eureka Mining District; Eureka, Nevada,
Re. CJT Mining, Inc. By Brian R. Bond,
Geologist March 30, 2013
Mountain
Boy Mining Claims
The
Mountain Boy property consists of 58 lode mining claims (1,160 acres) located
in the Battle Mountain/Eureka gold belt. The contiguous claim block is adjacent
to American Barrick’s Ruby Hill mine, which is to the northeast.
Barrick’s
East Archimedes open pit produced 125,000 oz. of gold in 2011 and 41,000 oz. in
2012 ; it has 326,000 ounces of gold reserves. The gold grade increases with
depth.
Most
of the historic production from the claim block came from the Mountain Boy and
Kentucky mines. There are also prospect pits scattered throughout the property.
Historic gold grades range from .01 ounces per ton (opt) Au to .527 opt Au;
silver concentrations range from 1.25 opt Ag to 47.8 opt Ag. The ratio of
silver to gold increases to the west and southwest.
Most
of the old workings are aligned along
the mineralized northeast-southwest lineament which passes through the
Archimedes pit and the east-west trend which was mined at Prospect mountain.
These two trends intersect in the middle of the Mountain Boy claim block, along
the northwest strike of the Battle Mountain/Eureka gold belt.
Existing
mine workings on the property require geological mapping and sampling. The
Battle Mountain/Eureka, Ruby Hill and Prospect Mountain trends merit detailed
examination. Mine dumps should also be sampled. “
This memo confirms that our claims
which are adjacent to Barrick Gold’s Ruby Hill/Eureka operations are in the
cross hairs of major mineralization trends from the east and the north
culminating at the locations of the Kentucky Mine, Mt. Boy and about 12 other
previous prospecting/mining sites.
Some of the historical information we
have gathered from these previous activities have provided us with some very
promising opportunities.
Asset #27 (Mt. Boy Eureka)
– 58 claims 1,160 acres
Asset #27 is adjacent on two sides to
some highly regarded precious metals properties:
1. Approximately 75 claims and 1,500
acres, the Prospect Ridge
immediately to the east is certified
to contain over 10 million tons of minable ore containing a minimum of 10
million ounces of gold and 20 million ounces of silver. This property has been actively mined by old
timers from 1870 to 1930 with recent activity from 1995 to 2002 by the current
owners but due to the age of the owners they do not appear ready to go into
production at this time.
2. Over 1,000 claims, 20,000 acres owned
by Barrick Gold. Claims are filed in the names of Barrick
Gold, Ruby Hill Mine and Homestake Mining.
The Ruby Hill mine is located on the Battle Mountain/Eureka gold trend,
less than one kilometer from the town of Eureka. Barrick acquired the mine through a merger
with Homestake. Ruby Hill is an
open-pit, heap leach operation. In 2011 after an extended redevelopment phase,
Ruby Hill produced 127,000 ounces (approx. $200 M) of gold at total cash costs
of $334 per ounce. Proven and probable
mineral reserves as of December 31, 2011 were 978,000 ounces of gold.
Asset #27 (Mt. Boy) located in the Mt.
Boy Range just to the west of Prospect Ridge and South of Barrick Gold’s claims. Mined intermittently
from 1860 up to the 1930s, approximately 15 different independent mining
operations were conducted with horses and mules as the primary means of access
in and out of the steep terrain.
Historical
information from samples gathered from these various mining operations are
shown in the chart below. This chart
estimates tonnage at 10% mineralization in only the top 100 feet in only 12 of
the 58 claims. Even though these numbers $5.626 B from 12 claims may seem high, there are more locations, additional claims, and additional depth to estimate
tonnage from to fully evaluate the full potential of these claims.
Potential In Ground Value
2,078,100 oz. AU (Gold) x $1500/oz x 70% = $2,182,005,000
137,763,000
Ag (Silver) x $25/oz x 70% =
3,444,075,000
Total Est. Recoverable Value $5,626,080,000
Asset
#26 (Reveille) Trenching and Drilling
Asset #26 at Reveille is much further
along than Asset #27 as far as preparation for drilling, mining and processing
of ore. Asset #26 also has a historical
analysis that is very similar to that shown above for Asset #27. The Asset #26 numbers as summarized are:
In-Ground
Asset Value - This
chart represents that each claim with rich samples may have a value of $195
million per claim times 12 claims, an in-ground value of over $2.35 billion. Again this represents only 10% mineralization in the top 100 feet and we have confirmed mineralization to 600 feet in our first round of drilling.
Above
Ground Stockpiled Ore Value - In
addition the stockpiled ore chart below derives it’s numbers from
certifications in July 2009 by a qualified individual as to the tonnage and
grade of the stockpiled ore and has been extended at today’s prices to show an
above ground asset value of $39,178,000.
Because Asset #26 has roads,
stockpiled ore and a more developed infrastructure, the decision has been made
to bring it into production before Asset #27.
The next step in the pre-production
activity is an expansion of drilling activities by proceeding to do additional
sampling in 33 50 foot long trenches in 20 of the mining claims on the west
side of our mining claim properties.
The results of this trenching, ripping
and sampling will establish a more thorough understanding of near surface
mineralization where the initial mining is to start. From the trenching analysis, another 25 drill
hole locations will be identified. These
25 drill holes will provide the data needed to block out and prove the ore
reserves needed to commence mining, and construction of the gold silver
processing facility.
