Presentation Abstract:

The Scottie Gold Mine Project – Insights from the Blueberry Contact Zone

Exploration of the Scottie Gold Mine Project over the past 6 years has resulted in the discovery of high-grade gold in four new zones (Blueberry Contact Zone, Domino, D-Zone, P-Zone) and the expansion of previously drill confirmed targets (Scottie Gold Mine, C-Zone, Bend Vein, Stockwork). The apparent principal control on all the zones is the proximity with the Jurassic aged, Texas Creek Plutonic suite intrusion on the property. Geological work in the area has established strong connections between the various deposits along a 6 kilometre trend occurring at the margin of the intrusion. The chemical, mineralogical, structural, and age relationships of the deposits and host rocks support a genetic model whereby all deposits are linked to the same mineralizing event, and the character of the individual zones appears to be related to localized structural controls. The largest zone discovered thus far is the Blueberry Contact Zone whose controlling structure is defined by the contact between andesite and siltstone units of the Hazelton Group. Starting at surface, this zone has a drilled strike length of 1,600 metres and has been tested to 525 metres depth. The Scottie Gold Mine Project is located on the Granduc Road, 20 kilometres north of Ascot Resources’ Premier Project, which has its first gold pour in April 2024. Newmont’s Brucejack Mine is located 25 kilometres to the north.
