Auxer Orogenic Gold

QUICK FACTS

DEPOSIT TYPE

Orogenic Gold

MINERALIZATION STYLE

Shear zone hosted veins

STRIKE LENGTH

Mineralized structure is over 7 km long inside claim block. Rock chips over 2 g/t Au extend over 2 km. 

MODELLED DEPTH

Geologic modelling indicates the mineralized zone extends for at least 1800 vertical feet. 

INTRODUCTION

The Auxer gold and silver project is an orogenic type project with significant gold and silver showing in both soil and rock chips. The land package is currently 138 federal mining claims which cover over 2,700 acres of forest service ground. This claim package is over 7 km long, and shows gold and silver mineralization along the entire strike length.

There is a historic area which saw production of a couple of hundred ounces of gold in the late 1970's and early 1980's which has been the focus of our exploration efforts so far. We have identified a gold anomoly in soils and rock chips that extends for over 2 km of strike length in this historic area. Silver values increase to the north along trend.

Our geologic mapping and sampling has revealed that the historic area is actually the top half of the mineralized structure which has been fault offset. The bottom portion (hanging wall) has never been identied before, but our sampling and geologic interpretation indicate vertical continuity of at least 570 meters.

Take a moment and look over the data below! There are some interesting videos which highlight some key features!

REGIONAL GEOLOGIC SETTING

The Auxer gold and silver project is located along a rich orogenic gold and silver belt that stretches from the Yukon to central Idaho. This belt contains such world class orogenic districts as the Pioneer-Bralorne mine and the Barkerville district.

Auxer is located directly between the Sheep Creek orogenic gold camp in southern B.C. and the Murray gold district in Idaho, and shares many geologic characteristics of each.

STRUCTURAL SETTING

The Auxer has been cut by a fault, exposing the mineralization in both the hangingwall and footwall.

ORE GEOMETRY

The ore geometry of the Auxer is typical of large orogenic systems.
