TurkPower's Chairman Ryan E. Hart stated: "This is a great day and milestone for TurkPower and its investors. With the purchase of controlling interest in the operational Kuluncak iron ore mine, TurkPower is taking its first step toward its goal of becoming a leading junior mining company in Turkey. The purchase adds a tangible and operational asset to the Company's balance sheet and leads to expected profitability in 2011. It also gives the Company leverage and credibility for future mining ventures and acquisitions in the booming mining industry of Turkey."
About the Kuluncak Property
The Kuluncak iron ore mine is an open-pit mine which will be operated from May to November and which is expected to produce 550,000 metric tons of iron ore per season no later than 2014. According to a two-year feasibility study conducted in 2008 and 2009, the mine has estimated reserves of 20,900,000 metric tons for a net value of approximately $3bn based on current market prices for 58% - 62%-grade iron ore. The feasibility study was performed by one of the world's leading mining companies, which concluded: "The project offers great value for money if a small mine is what one is looking for." The mine was put into operation in June 2011, and has more than 140,000 metric tons of iron ore in inventory, which will be sold entirely no later than Q3 2011.
The Kuluncak mine produced more than 280,000 tons of iron ore in the late 1990s and all necessary infrastructure is already in place, including good quality roads to the railroad line with direct access to deep-sea ports and local steel smelters. The mine is located in the mining area of Malatya, Turkey, approximately 500km east of Turkey's capital Ankara.

Mining and Gold Stocks; YALE (TSX-V: YLL) Identifies Multiple Geophysical Targets at Los Amoles

June 22, 2011 (Investorideas.com Mining stocks Newswire) - Yale Resources Ltd. (TSX-V: YLL) is pleased to report that the recently completed 28 line-kilometre geophysics program at the Los Amoles Silver Property, located in central Sonora State, has identified multiple potentially significant targets.
The geophysical interpretation identified eight (8) linear 500 to greater than 800 metre long features that are parallel to the trend of the known veins/structures within the property. The summary report prepared by the geophysical contractor concluded that "certain axies are representative of mineralised structures or veins whose potential has yet to be fully determined and should thus be further investigated" and recommended that three of them be drill tested.
In addition to the eight linear features, the Induced Polarization survey was successful in identifying multiple stand-alone targets. The Rosales mine occurs in the centre of a +19 mV/V chargeability high that is the middle of three such anomalies that form a corridor greater than 1.0 km in length. However, a 600 metre by 1,100 metre chargeability anomaly was identified in an area of the project that has received only limited field work to date.
In addition to the geophysics survey, 124 rock samples were taken from historic workings, mineralized dumps and outcrops. Samples have been submitted to Inspectorate Labs' preparation facility in Hermosillo and results are expected shortly.
Work at Los Amoles is being performed by Yale on behalf of Sonora Resources who by funding the exploration have the right to earn a 70% interest in the property.
About the Los Amoles Property:
The early stage wholly owned 16.3 square kilometre Los Amoles Property is located approximately 150 kilometres northeast of the Hermosillo, Sonora State, Mexico. The property is approximately 10 kilometres northeast of the La Caridad Mine, operated by Grupo Mexico, which is one of the largest mining and processing complexes in Mexico.
Sonora Resources Ltd. (previously Nature's Call) has an option to earn a 70% interest in the property by paying to Yale US $ 50,000 (received), spending US $ 900,000 on exploration expenditures and issuing 1,000,000 shares (400,000 have been received) to Yale over three years.
Work performed to date by Yale has concentrated on an area (the Rosales area) that is on the south eastern edge of a 4.0 by 2.75 km regional magnetic anomaly. Yale's interpretation is that the Rosales area represents silver-lead +/- gold veins that are distal to a porphyry system. The potential for this regional anomaly to reflect a buried porphyry has yet to be tested. Many of Sonora's most significant porphyry deposits are located within 70 km of the Los Amoles property.
Samples from Los Amoles were prepared and analyzed by IPL Inspectorate in their facilities in Mexico and Vancouver, respectively. Samples generally consisted of 1-3 kg of material. Gold and silver analyses were performed by 30 gram fire assay with an AA finish. Samples with greater than 100 g/t silver were re-assayed using gravimetric methods.
Ian Foreman, P.Geo., is Yale Resources' Qualified Person, as defined by National Instrument 43-101. The Los Amoles property is an early stage project that requires additional sampling and geological mapping to fully determine the project's potential.
On behalf of the Board,
"Ian Foreman"

Successful Bulk Sample
Silver and Gold Bulk Sample Processed by Teck Cominco in Canada, s melter receipts:
averaged 28 grams per tonne gold plus64 grams per tonne silver
See website 3D Geological drill hole movie, 3D Footwall, complete maps, geochem, and drilling.
Significant early stage block calculations on a small portion of one shear zone -- and there are numerous shear zones, running under large undrilled geochem zones with good gold values.
The 2004 soil geochemical survey identified numerous and as yet untested gold in soil anomalies as much as 2,000 meters north of the Main Shear Zone drilling which appear to trend in the same northeast and northwest direction as the gold mineralization found in the shear zones around the Main Shear Zone.
Gold mineralization found in a road cut 3,000 meters north of the Main Shear Zone drilling assayed 9.5 grams per tonne gold.
Running Fox geologists conclude that the Brett Gold and Silver Project has many untested soil anomalies representing significant exploration targets that are similar in geology and grade of gold mineralization to that found around the Main Shear Zone, which is also open along strike and depth.
Also See "Top 40 Gold Intercepts" on website. In management's opinion, Running Fox is very undervalued and a strategic marketing campaign will be endorsed along with upcoming drilling.

Q&A Interview Argentina Ethical Gold Stock Soltera Mining Corp. (OTCPK: SLTA)

Point Roberts, WA - June 09, 2011 - www.InvestorIdeas.com, a leader in sector stock research including mining stocks, release a Q&A interview with Dr. Fabio Montanari, President/CEO of Soltera Mining Corp. (OTCPK:SLTA) (FRANKFURT:SN7) for interested gold stock investors.

Q- Investorideas.com
Interview
Dr. Fabio Montanari, let's start with the two announcements regarding assay results. They seem contradictory, with one reporting low gold values and the other some very high gold values, so what does this mean?
A- Fabio Montanari
The difference is because the samples were from test work on two very different types of gold deposit.
The main potential of the El Torno property is for large deposits of vein and bedrock gold, but there are also much smaller deposits of weathered surface (called eluvial) material that can contain free gold. The first announcement concerned test work on eluvial material whereas the second concerned analyses from part of the main vein system.
Q- Investorideas.com
Why bother with the eluvial deposits if they are small and, in any case what went wrong with the eluvial test work?
A- Fabio Montanari
We were looking at the eluvial material because there is a simple gravitational processing plant already in place that had been used successfully in the past by the mineral title owner and it offered the real possibility of generating a rapid cash flow that would pay for exploration of the main targets. Initial operation of the plant produced gold in the form of tiny nuggets and the next logical step was to test an area of potential eluvial feedstock to see if there was enough for a commercial operation. Any production by this means would be ideal for Goldlake's agreement to supply ‘ethical gold' to Cartier.
The sampled area, about 35 of the 7 861hectares (19,424 acres) included in the property, was selected because it had a good thickness of weathered material, all the necessary permissions for surface extraction, and is relatively close to the processing plant. Part of the area had also been worked previously by the mineral title owner. However, extensive and detailed test work showed that although small amounts of gold are distributed widely throughout the area, the tonnage of material containing higher values is insufficient to justify a commercial operation from this location. There was simply less gold than we had anticipated and, as a result, we cannot go into production immediately as we wished. There are, however, other areas of eluvial material throughout the property that could contain gold and these will be examined in due course.
Q- Investorideas.com
So what is the significance of the very high gold values in the second announcement?
A-Fabio Montanari
The high gold values are very exciting and very significant.
We already knew from old records that a gold-rich zone, said to be about one and a half meters wide, extends along the western edge of the main vein system. Drilling in the 1990s showed that the zone extends to at least 110 meters depth and suggested an average gold grade around 10 gpt. Soltera geochemical surveys also suggest that the zone extends for most of the 14 km vein length. This gold zone is a major exploration target.
Although we had been concentrating on eluvial material, I decided to look more closely at surface expressions of the gold zone. I selected a 300 meter long stretch marked by old workings and trenches, and took samples of various rock types such as white quartz or iron-rich breccias to find out where gold was concentrated. A few were simply grab samples (lumps of a particular rock type), but most were channel samples which means literally cutting a channel several centimeters wide and deep through the rock over a distance of 1 or 1.5 meters. The gold analysis of a channel sample indicates the average gold over the length sampled.
The results were startling to say the least. They included channel samples of 6.5 meters with between 6.2 and 8.8 g/t Au, 1 meter at 14.95 g/t Au, 1 meter at 20.9 g/t Au, and 1.5 meters at 376 g/t Au. The mean value of the 17 samples containing more than 1 g/t Au (with the 376 g/t Au cut to 100 g/t Au) was 11 g/t Au.
The data confirms the existence of the rich gold zone along the flank of the main vein as indicated by earlier drilling and indicates that in some places it is considerably thicker than previously thought (up to 6.5 meters). Some gold mineralization was even detected in part of the main vein system where it had not been previously recognized. The results open up all sorts of possibilities for the future, including that of possible surface production from ‘hot spots' over parts of the vein. It definitely means there should be intensive sampling along the full 14 km length of the vein system.
Q- Investorideas.com
And what about the Goldlake announcement?
A-Fabio Montanari
Goldlake evidently appreciate the potential for gold at El Torno and decided to back us despite the setback over eluvium gold production. We are really looking forward to moving rapidly on some serious exploration of the main vein and dispersed bedrock gold targets.
Q- Investorideas.com
So what's next for Soltera?
A- Fabio Montanari
Intensive exploration of the major gold targets and fulfilling the listing requirements.
Under the terms of the agreement with the mineral title owner, we have eighteen months to decide whether or not the property is worth purchasing outright. This means we have to acquire sufficient information to make a firm decision.
The next step will be detailed mapping and sampling along the full length of the vein and over parts of the dispersed gold targets that are marked by strong geochemical anomalies. At the same time, we are planning a geophysical survey over part of the main vein system. The net result of this work will be to define drill targets and we intend to start drilling during the next field season which commences in September this year. If ‘hot spots' are detected along the gold-rich zone, we will look at the possibility of future surface production, but our main emphasis must be on the major targets.
In addition, we intend to bring all our SEC and BCSC filings up to date in order to become fully compliant with all reporting procedures.
About El Torno
The El Torno project is located in the extreme north of Argentina in rolling country of the high Andes at a height of around 4,000 meters. Soltera holds options over 78 km 2 of highly prospective ground that contains a very large gold-bearing quartz vein system extending intermittently for 14 km with veins up to 20 meters wide, and the area has potential for major gold deposits of two types; large gold-rich quartz vein deposits suitable for underground mining, and gold-bearing quartz vein swarms within the country rocks suitable for large-scale open-pit mining.

Gold and Mining Stocks; Currie Rose (TSX.V:CUI) (OTC:CUIRF) Prepares for 10,000 Metre Drill Program in Tanzania

ST. CATHARINES, ONTARIO - June 9, 2011 (Investorideas.com Mining stocks Newswire) - Currie Rose (TSX.V:CUI) (OTC:CUIRF) is pleased to announce that its 2011 field season in Tanzania is well underway and an initial 10,000 metres of drilling is scheduled to begin this month. The Company has been exploring a land package comprising hundreds of square kilometres in the prolific Lake Victoria Greenstone Belt since 2005. This summer will be the Company's busiest yet as it advances two major projects.
Sekenke Project
A report by Perth-based Earthsan Pty Ltd. has provided Currie Rose with a new satellite imagery interpretation (Landsat 7 ETN imagery) that has identified numerous zones of alteration at Sekenke coupled with strong structural evidence often associated with gold mineralization in the region. Of particular note is that the dominant northwest trending structure that transects Tanzania has been clearly shown to extend from the Handeni Gold District near Dar es Salaam through Sekenke. North-south cross cutting structures have also been identified within the package.
"We'll be drilling Sekenke for the first time ever this summer and we're extremely excited," stated Harold Smith, Currie Rose President and CEO. "This nearly 300-square kilometre land package surrounding two former high grade mines gives us a flagship property that we intend to explore and develop aggressively. We have completed an extensive amount of field work at Sekenke over the past couple of years, including just recently with more to come, and we believe the discovery potential is significant given all the geological evidence we've collected from our own work in addition to historical information. We're proceeding in a careful and systematic fashion with so many potential targets in order to conduct the most efficient and effective drill campaign possible."
Results from new rock and soil sampling at Sekenke are expected in the near future. A deep-penetrating IP (induced polarization) survey will be conducted and then all data will be analyzed in order to pinpoint the most prospective targets for the 5,000 metre Phase 1 program.
Mabale Hills Project
As important ground work continues at Sekenke, drilling will begin at Currie Rose's Mwamazengo Property later this month. Geochemical analysis has outlined a continuous anomaly over a few hundred metres that runs parallel to the west of the Mwamazengo discovery where previous drill results included notable high grade intercepts such as 34 metres grading 3.60 g/t Au, 12 metres grading 9.11 g/t Au, 63 metres grading 2.59 g/t Au, and 31 metres grading 5.97 g/t Au.
Company geologists are eagerly looking forward to revisiting Mwamazengo with a new drill program. The 6,000 metres drilled to date by Currie Rose has outlined a mineralized zone that is continuous for 240 metres along strike and down dip from the surface to approximately 200 metres and remains open at depth.
Elsewhere at Mabale Hills, Currie Rose will be conducting follow-up drilling at Sisu River, six kilometres northeast of Mwamazengo. A first-pass program late last year outlined a significant near-surface expression at Sisu River with a gold zone that is open both to the north and the south and also at depth. Upcoming drilling at Sisu River will target mineralization below that drilled in 2010 and will also seek to extend mineralization along strike.
Drilling will also be conducted at Currie Rose's Dhahabu Prospect, a few kilometres northeast of Sisu River.

Gold Stocks; GOLD BULLION (TSX-V: GBB) IDENTIFIES STRONG, NEW VEIN STRUCTURE AT CASTLE SILVER MINE, GOWGANDA

VANCOUVER - June 8, 2011 (Investorideas.com Mining stocks Newswire) - Gold Bullion Development Corp. (CDNX:GBB.V) (Other OTC:GBBFF.PK) ("Gold Bullion") announces that it has completed a 43-101 Technical Report on its Castle Silver Mine property, which has been filed on SEDAR and can also be viewed on the Company's website at http://www.GoldBullionDevelopmentCorp.com. Gold Bullion is nearing completion of its 6000m first-phase drill program with a total of 4861 metres, as of May 31st, having been completed in 10 holes. A strong new vein structure was identified at the location of the first IP target tested.
The Company's Castle Silver Mine property, located 85 kilometres northwest of the historic silver camp in Cobalt, Ontario consists of 34 leased mining claims and two licenses of occupation located in Haultain and Nicol Townships, covering approximately 564.4 hectares. The mine has been in operation at various times from 1917 to 1989 and produced a total of 763,127,010 grams of silver from the No. 3 shaft. This included Agnico-Eagle Mines Ltd.'s production from 1979 to 1989 which came to 101,024 tonnes milled; 91,421,294 grams silver; 34,597 kilograms cobalt and 10,180 kilograms copper. Operations shut down in 1989 due to low silver prices.
Mine workings were originally accessed by an adit level entrance on the 21.3 metre (70-foot) level as well as a vertical shaft. Water level measurements have ascertained that this uppermost level is above the mine's water level. Based on this determination, the Company has submitted a preliminary closure plan to allow the re-opening of the adit to map and re-sample this upper level. This can be done without having to dewater the mine. Once this initial re-evaluation has been completed, the Company will determine whether to proceed with the complete dewatering of the workings.
The mandate of this first phase of drilling is to identify the geometry and stratigraphy of the mafic diabase intrusive sill to which the silver-cobalt quartz-carbonate veins are spatially related. Of particular importance are fault structures sub-parallel to the contacts of this intrusive body. The drilling is attempting, at the same time, to define the strength of known vein structures from historic workings as well as testing specific IP targets identified by a recent geophysical survey.
To date, several significant vein structures have been intersected. The potential extensions to two strong historical structures have been tested but need further work before they can be confirmed. No sample analyses have been received to date. In keeping with the aim of mapping the stratigraphy of the 300m-thick intrusive sill, four holes have traversed the entire thickness enabling a detailed analysis of subtle differences in mineralogy and alteration and the identification of the location the low-angle faults which are important mineralization indicators.
Historically, exploration in the Gowganda - Elk Lake area has focused on the upper one-third of the Nipissing diabase sill and most of the resulting historic production from the Gowganda area has been mined from this horizon. However, an estimated 75 percent or more of the silver mined from all the silver mines between Gowganda and Silver Centre in South Lorrain south of Cobalt, Ontario - has been mined from outside this horizon.

Q&A Interview with President/CEO of Gold Stock Soltera Mining Corp. (OTCPK: SLTA): Ethical Gold in Argentina

Point Roberts, WA - June 08, 2011 - www.InvestorIdeas.com, a leader in sector stock research including mining stocks, release a Q&A interview with Dr. Fabio Montanari, President/CEO of Soltera Mining Corp. (OTCPK:SLTA) (FRANKFURT:SN7) for interested gold stock investors.
On May 5th, 2011 Soltera reported some exciting gold assay results from a chip and channel program on sections of the 14 km long gold-bearing quartz vein system that spans their El Torno property in northern Argentina. Those results included a mind-boggling 1.5 meters at 376 g/t. This announcement, however, came on the heels of an April 27th release stating that test work on an eluvial (weathered surface material) area designated to provide feed for the existing gravity plant showed insufficient gold for exploitation.
Then on May 25th Soltera announced that Goldlake Italia S.p.A ("Goldlake"), a company that has an agreement to supply "ethical gold" to Cartier Jewelers, intends to invest a further US$900,000 into Soltera by June 30th 2011.
InvestorIdeas.com interview with Dr. Fabio Montanari sheds light on the relevance of these three announcements and tells investors about his current plans at Soltera Mining's flagship Argentine gold property, El Torno.
Dr. Fabio Montanari has an international mining career of over twenty-five years, including senior experience spearheading advanced exploration and mining activities in Africa, South America, Europe, Canada and the United States for a host of internationally recognized exploration and mining companies including: Asarco (US), Golden Star (UK), ENI Group (Italy) and Normabec (CAN). Dr. Montanari has also been a geological consultant to the United Nations under the U.N. Technology Cooperation Schemes.
Q- Investorideas.com
Dr. Fabio Montanari, let's start with the two announcements regarding assay results. They seem contradictory, with one reporting low gold values and the other some very high gold values, so what does this mean?
A- Fabio Montanari
The difference is because the samples were from test work on two very different types of gold deposit.
The main potential of the El Torno property is for large deposits of vein and bedrock gold, but there are also much smaller deposits of weathered surface (called eluvial) material that can contain free gold. The first announcement concerned test work on eluvial material whereas the second concerned analyses from part of the main vein system.
Q- Investorideas.com
Why bother with the eluvial deposits if they are small and, in any case what went wrong with the eluvial test work?
A- Fabio Montanari
We were looking at the eluvial material because there is a simple gravitational processing plant already in place that had been used successfully in the past by the mineral title owner and it offered the real possibility of generating a rapid cash flow that would pay for exploration of the main targets. Initial operation of the plant produced gold in the form of tiny nuggets and the next logical step was to test an area of potential eluvial feedstock to see if there was enough for a commercial operation. Any production by this means would be ideal for Goldlake's agreement to supply ‘ethical gold' to Cartier.
The sampled area, about 35 of the 7 861hectares (19,424 acres) included in the property, was selected because it had a good thickness of weathered material, all the necessary permissions for surface extraction, and is relatively close to the processing plant. Part of the area had also been worked previously by the mineral title owner. However, extensive and detailed test work showed that although small amounts of gold are distributed widely throughout the area, the tonnage of material containing higher values is insufficient to justify a commercial operation from this location. There was simply less gold than we had anticipated and, as a result, we cannot go into production immediately as we wished. There are, however, other areas of eluvial material throughout the property that could contain gold and these will be examined in due course.
Q- Investorideas.com
So what is the significance of the very high gold values in the second announcement?
A-Fabio Montanari
The high gold values are very exciting and very significant.
We already knew from old records that a gold-rich zone, said to be about one and a half meters wide, extends along the western edge of the main vein system. Drilling in the 1990s showed that the zone extends to at least 110 meters depth and suggested an average gold grade around 10 gpt. Soltera geochemical surveys also suggest that the zone extends for most of the 14 km vein length. This gold zone is a major exploration target.
Although we had been concentrating on eluvial material, I decided to look more closely at surface expressions of the gold zone. I selected a 300 meter long stretch marked by old workings and trenches, and took samples of various rock types such as white quartz or iron-rich breccias to find out where gold was concentrated. A few were simply grab samples (lumps of a particular rock type), but most were channel samples which means literally cutting a channel several centimeters wide and deep through the rock over a distance of 1 or 1.5 meters. The gold analysis of a channel sample indicates the average gold over the length sampled.
The results were startling to say the least. They included channel samples of 6.5 meters with between 6.2 and 8.8 g/t Au, 1 meter at 14.95 g/t Au, 1 meter at 20.9 g/t Au, and 1.5 meters at 376 g/t Au. The mean value of the 17 samples containing more than 1 g/t Au (with the 376 g/t Au cut to 100 g/t Au) was 11 g/t Au.
The data confirms the existence of the rich gold zone along the flank of the main vein as indicated by earlier drilling and indicates that in some places it is considerably thicker than previously thought (up to 6.5 meters). Some gold mineralization was even detected in part of the main vein system where it had not been previously recognized. The results open up all sorts of possibilities for the future, including that of possible surface production from ‘hot spots' over parts of the vein. It definitely means there should be intensive sampling along the full 14 km length of the vein system.
Q- Investorideas.com
And what about the Goldlake announcement?
A-Fabio Montanari
Goldlake evidently appreciate the potential for gold at El Torno and decided to back us despite the setback over eluvium gold production. We are really looking forward to moving rapidly on some serious exploration of the main vein and dispersed bedrock gold targets.
Q- Investorideas.com
So what's next for Soltera?
A- Fabio Montanari
Intensive exploration of the major gold targets and fulfilling the listing requirements.
Under the terms of the agreement with the mineral title owner, we have eighteen months to decide whether or not the property is worth purchasing outright. This means we have to acquire sufficient information to make a firm decision.
The next step will be detailed mapping and sampling along the full length of the vein and over parts of the dispersed gold targets that are marked by strong geochemical anomalies. At the same time, we are planning a geophysical survey over part of the main vein system. The net result of this work will be to define drill targets and we intend to start drilling during the next field season which commences in September this year. If ‘hot spots' are detected along the gold-rich zone, we will look at the possibility of future surface production, but our main emphasis must be on the major targets.
In addition, we intend to bring all our SEC and BCSC filings up to date in order to become fully compliant with all reporting procedures.

Mining and Gold Stocks News; LOMIKO (TSX-V: LMR; OTC: LMRMF) ESTABLISHES EXPLORATION CAMP AT VINES LAKE GOLD PROJECT

Vancouver - June 6, 2011 (Investorideas.com mining stocks newswire) – LOMIKO METALS INC. (TSX-V:LMR, OTC: LMRMF, Europe: ISIN: CA54163Q1028, WKN: A0Q9W7,) ("Lomiko" or "the Company) Exploration Manager Lesley Hunt has reports that Lomiko has established an exploration camp to coordinate activities related to the summer exploration program at Vines Lake. Lomiko holds the rights to three contiguous mineral tenures, totaling 1,169 Ha (2,888 Acres) located in the southwestern corner of the Cassiar Gold District or ‘Cassiar Gold Camp'. Exploration activities are to commence in June, 2011 and continue until September, 2011.
This program is designed to target both potentially high-grade gold vein systems, as seen at the adjacent Table Mountain Mine, in addition to the prospect of intrusion related mineralization. Phase I of the program is targeted to begin as soon as weather and snow conditions permit. Phase II will explore follow-up targets resulting from the geological mapping, geochemical and ground geophysical surveys resulting from Phase I.
Due to the property's close proximity to formerly producing mines with a proven history in the Cassiar Mining Camp, it is the opinion of the company that potential exists on the 100% owned Vines Lake Property for discovering new high-grade gold vein systems. Also, there is a potential for other intrusion related mineralization in proximity to the Cassiar Batholith and its associated boundary contacts, over which Lomiko's Vines Lake property claims are located.
Cassiar Area Highlights:
  • A new company with Chinese investors known as China Minerals Mining Corporation is located adjacent to the property.
  • A fully permitted 270 tonne per day, gravity and flotation mill, power plant, assay laboratory and tailings impoundment facility is owned by China Minerals.
  • Approximately 316,000 ounces of gold have been produced at the adjacent Table Mountain Mine from 1979-2007 under various companies.
  • Current Resource Estimates for the Table Mountain Mine are 21,471 tonnes grading 18.02 g/t indicated and 65,757 tonnes grading 24.3 g/t inferred were reported at the adjacent property in the May, 2010 NI43-101 Technical Report on the Table Mountain Property by C. Pearson and F.J. Bakker.
Vines Lake Highlights:
  • Two significant anomalies have been identified by geophysical surveys.The claims cover formations of the Sylvester group, which are known to contain productive zones of gold mineralization in the area.
  • The Vines Lake Property is located approximately two kilometres southwest of the former Erickson gold mine.
  • Highway 37 N bisects the property north to south providing excellent access.
