About the Arlington Property, Greenwood MD, B.C.
關於不列顛哥倫比亞省馬里蘭州格林伍德的阿靈頓地產
The Arlington Property is located in the West Kettle River Valley, south-central British Columbia, 17 km north of Beaverdell and 65 km south of Kelowna B.C. (see Location Map). The property consists of nine claims covering 3,583.89 hectares located in the Greenwood Mining Division. Historic work in the area was driven by the early success and discoveries made in the Beaverdell and Carmi Mining Camps during the late 1890s. Previous exploration on the Arlington property was conducted from the early 1970's to 1996 and from 2015 to 2021. In 2020/21, the Fresh Pots and Blockchain mineral claims were staked by Origen to encompass ground geologically similar to the adjoining Arlington claims. Origen conducted ground surveys on the Fresh Pots claims, consisting of soil and rock-chip sampling, ground magnetic surveys and geological mapping. It completed ~2,000 soil sampling surveys in 2021/22 which revealed a strong gold anomaly approximately 2,000 meters in a N-S direction and 1,000 meters in an E-W direction. The values ranged from 15 - 2300 ppb Au, with associated anomalous values of Cu, Co, Ag, and As. The Freshpots claims area has never been drilled before Origen conducted a back-pack drill hole (20 - 30 meters deep) in 2022. Assays from the core graded 2.18 ppm Au, 11.34 ppm Ag and 0.35% Cu over 0.70 m.
阿靈頓地產位於不列顛哥倫比亞省中南部的西凱特爾河谷,比弗德爾以北17公里,不列顛哥倫比亞省基洛納以南65公里處(見位置圖)。該財產包括九項索賠,佔地3583.89公頃,位於格林伍德礦業部。19 世紀 90 年代後期,比弗德爾和卡米採礦營地的早期成功和發現,推動了該地區的歷史性工作。先前對阿靈頓地產的勘探是在1970年代初至1996年以及2015年至2021年期間進行的。2020/21年,Origen質押了鮮鍋和區塊鏈礦產索賠,以涵蓋地質學上與鄰近的阿靈頓索賠相似的地面。Origen對Fresh Pots索賠進行了地面調查,包括土壤和岩屑採樣、地面磁力調查和地質測繪。它在2021/22年度完成了約2,000次土壤採樣調查,發現了一個強烈的金異常,南北方向約2,000米,東西方向約1,000米。金值介於 15-2300 ppb 之間,相關的異常值爲銅、鈷、銀和砷。在Origen於2022年進行揹包式鑽孔(深20-30米)之前,Freshpots索賠區域從未鑽探過。核心分析結果顯示,0.70 m以上金含量爲2.18 ppm,銀含量爲11.34 ppm,銅含量爲0.35%。
Nickelex is planning an initial exploration program consisting of detailed soil sampling, geological mapping, prospecting and trenching, followed by a 6-7 hole, 1,000m drill program during 2024. The objective of the program will be to determine the nature of mineralization and possible presence of gold skarn mineralization, similar to mineralization at the Buckhorn Mine located 8km south of the Canada/USA border.
Nickelex正在計劃一項初步勘探計劃,包括詳細的土壤採樣、地質測繪、勘探和挖溝,隨後在2024年進行6-7孔、1,000米的鑽探計劃。該項目的目標將是確定礦化的性質和可能存在的金錫卡巖礦化,類似於位於加拿大/美國邊境以南8公里處的巴克霍恩礦的礦化。
