An exploration team from Blind Creek Resources has been mobilized to Table Mountain project, located in Atlin Mining Division, Northwest British Columbia, in order to follow-up a poly-metallic dispersion geochemical soil model that features silver and gold near the popular Nahlin Fault Zone.
Blind Creek Resources has announced that it has completed the phase I of the 2012 field program at the Table Mountain Project, located in the Mayo Mining District in Yukon. The company’s exploration team, containing five persons, will target the Table Mountain project, situated 15 km towards the northwestern part of the previous Atlin placer gold camp.
This team intersected a geochemical soil anomaly, containing silver and gold, during 2011. The anomaly was expanding over 36 ha and still remains exposed. An anomalous copper-molybdenum-lead-zinc zone, which expands for more than 100 ha, has developed a halo to the geochemical core, bearing gold and silver. This geochemical core also remains exposed.
These anomalous regions are located in a gossan zone, whose thickness and length are 1,000 m and 4,000 m, respectively. Partial exploration was carried out on these regions, last year.
On the project’s western side, there is a prominent placer gold creek. Rock formations in the project region are believed to be volcanic, and were cut by the Nahlin Fault Zone, a main regional NW-SE fault.
