Far Lake Property: Highlights
A 2019 discovery of a high-grade, semi-massive sulphide copper occurrence during trenching program include a 0.7m channel sample across massive sulphide that assayed 22.0% Cu, 30.2 g/t Ag, and 0.25 g/t Au & 3.54% Cu over 3m, including 4.96% Cu over 1m.
Mineralization is located within a northwest-southeast trending, brecciated and silicified structure that bisects a regional granitic pluton. Sulphide mineralization in the structure has been delineated for approximately 400m and remains open in all directions.
In addition, a parallel zone 2.1km west of the copper occurrence was located in the spring of 2020 by Benton Resources and exhibits a similar intense brecciation and silicification. This second structure has been traced intermittently over a 5km strike length with chalcopyrite (copper sulphide) mineralization occurring throughout. The new zone is highly silicified and exhibits brecciation and an abundance of quartz veining with local silicified areas measuring up to 200m wide. Mineralization identified to-date on the Property displays characteristics suggestive of multiple mineralizing events, at both the property and regional scale

A boulder which appearance suggest and had not traveled far during glaciationcontained 0.293% Cu, 1.71g/t Pd, 0.3g/t Pt and 0.219g/t Au
