Slide 3: The Craigmont Mine
THE CRAIGMONT MINE Both open pit and underground mining was used to extract copper and magnetite from 1958-1982. Mining ceased due to copper price of ~$0.60/lb. 7th Aug 1961 Sept 1962 • 1961-1982, Craigmont produced • 1993-2014, magnetite produced 34Mt @ 1.3% Cu both from by re-processing of Craigmo
Slide 4: Regional Geology
REGIONAL GEOLOGY Shares the regional geologic environment with TECK’s Highland Valley Copper District, the largest copper producer in Canada. N
Slide 5: Project Geology
PROJECT GEOLOGY LITHOLOGY Upper Triassic Nicola Group intruded by Late Triassic Guichon Creek batholith. The western portion is overlain by the Cretaceous Spences Bridge Group. Two plugs related to the Triassic Colyle Stock found on the southern part of the property. Guichon Creek batholith Geologic
Slide 6: Project Geology: Mineralization, Porphyry Style
PROJECT GEOLOGY MINERALIZATION Porphyry and skarn mineralization occurring on the property. Epidote Cu-Fe Skarn (Replacement of garnet) Stratigraphic-hosted malachite, CU-FE SKARN Actinolite & chlorite chalcopyrite, chalcocite, azurite and bornite along fractures or stratigraphically Chalcopyrite ho
Slide 7: Exploration
EXPLORATION HISTORIC EXPLORATION INSIGHTS Focused on targeting limy* units for additional skarn (strata- bound) that were viewed by exploration team as “non- porphyry” relate. Geophysical methods struggled with thick overburden and Kingsvale Group. Largely unsuccessful in adding new resources. Suppr
Slide 8: Exploration: Recent Drilling Highlights
EXPLORATION High-grade copper mineralization has been found near the historic Craigmont Mine and in the new-discovered Embayment Zone. R E C E N T DRILLING HIGHLIGHTS DDH-THU-002: 85.6m @ 1.11% Cu Sep 7, 2016, news release (SEDAR Oct. 4, 2016) S-100: 116.7m @ 0.54% Cu (re-sampling) Jan 23, 2017, new
Slide 9: Exploration: 2023 Drilling Summary
EXPLORATION 2023 DRILLING SUMMARY • Six holes were drilled north and east of the historic Craigmont pit1. • NC23-001 interacted with exoskarn in the Nicola Group's limey sedimentary rocks east of the historic pit. • NC23-005 and NC23-006 revealed extensive potassic and propylitic alterations, along
Slide 10: 2024 Exploration
2024 EXPLORATION Look into the Guichon Quartz Diorite: breccia pipes, endoskarns and porphyry targets. 3D IP Survey followed by drilling! MARB - A breccia zone of quartz diorite - Chalcopyrite, pyrite and pyrrhotite occurs as fine disseminations and veins hosted in the epidote-chlorite- actinolite a
Slide 11: MARB-CAS Zone
MARB-CAS ZONE AEROMAGNETIC ANOMALIES There appears to be an EW striking magnetic anomaly trend that includes known mineralization found in the Direction to WP Embayment, Craigmont, and Eric zones. However, the MARB-CAS Zone remains largely unexplored and lacks drill data. The Craigmont anomaly is th
Slide 12: MARB-CAS Zone: Aeromagnetic Anomalies
MARB-CAS ZONE AEROMAGNETIC ANOMALIES Aeromagnetic MVI cross-sections illustrating proven mineralization at Eric (A-A), Craigmont (B-B’) and Embayment (C-C’) corresponding with high magnetic anomalies and observed mineralization on surface at CAS (D-D’) and MARB (E-E’) also corresponding with high ma
Slide 13: West Craigmont Zone
WEST CRAIGMONT ZONE WEST CRAIGMONT ZONE – A PORPHYRY TARGET Porphyry-style mineralization and alteration has recently been found in Guichon Quartz Diorite outcrop at WP. F Copper oxide minerals observed along some fractures in quartz diorite. F’ Quartz veins with potassic alteration halo.
Slide 14: West Craigmont Zone: ZTEM Survey
WEST CRAIGMONT ZONE ZTEM SURVRY - RESISTIVITY ANOMALIES 2022 ZTEM survey detected an oval-shaped resistivity high feature that coincides with magnetic high anomaly in the West Craigmont Zone. F F’ The geophysical anomaly in the West Craigmont Zone is interpreted to be a felsic intrusion associated w
