An exploration program by
The road-accessible property includes the past-producing Mt. Skukum mine. The 300-tonne-per-day underground mine operated briefly in the late 1980s, before it was closed for failing to live up to expectations.
More recent exploration has focused on the Skukum Creek, Mt. Skukum and Goddell Gulley deposits, as well as numerous other targets. The known deposits collectively host an resource estimated at 1.07 million tonnes grading 9.63 grams gold and 175.2 grams silver per tonne.
The current program will include diamond drilling on the Ridge zone, situated west of the Rainbow and Kuhn zone at Skukum Creek. Geological mapping and sampling will also test the Charleston and King Canyon zones.
