We believe there is a significant opportunity to acquire complementary properties or assets in the metals market" For slightly over a century, the legendary Abitibi-Greenstone belt has produced hundreds of billions of dollars' worth of mostly gold, silver, copper and zinc.
The "Big Monty" property consists of 72 mining claim units totaling 2,846 acres and is located in the prolific Abitibi Greenstone Belt region, in the Frecheville township of NE Ontario Canada. An Airborne Survey has noted a variety of features characteristic of gold within the Big Monty property. The Airborne Survey will be used in coordination with the planned geophysical survey and surface geological mapping to determine mineralization targets for future prospecting and conducting the drilling program.
The Big Monty property is near existing producing gold mines, and borders property owned by Harte Gold and St Andrew Goldfields Ltd. who was recently bought for $178 million CAD by Kirkland Lake Gold Inc.
