Kennecott drilling Galena Giant

Drilling recently got under way at the Galena Giant property owned by Wealth Resources (VSE) and Arbor Resources (VSE).

Kennecott, which can earn a 51% interest in the property by spending US$5 million over four years, is drilling up to 4,000 ft. to test a Sullivan-style stratiform lead-zinc-silver target.

The property is on the Idaho/Montana border about 12 miles to the northeast of the Coeur D’Alene mining district.

The target, at least 2,200 ft. below surface, was identified by a mobile mercury anomaly, a gravity high, a magnetic anomaly and an electrical conductor.
