Yukon: White Gold
Dan Property
Dan Property (9,318 hectares) features 22km of a prospective, well-defined, linear thrust fault system that is the possible northern extension of the gold-bearing trend found on the JP Ross property.
On the Dan property, 2316 soil samples were collected on one main grid and three smaller grids based on 50m sample intervals on lines spaced approximately 100m apart, and 1091 line kilometers of airborne geophysical readings were collected. The Dan property covers approximately 27km of a prospective, well-defined, linear, thrust fault system that is the possible northern extension of the gold-bearing structure found on Kinross's JP Ross property located 5km southwest. The soil sampling was focused on the northwestern part of the property where the thrust fault system appears to be more complex according to the airborne magnetic data. The soil geochemical results were generally low with two significant results of 115ppb and 212ppbAu. Although these two values occur on the thrust fault as indicated by the airborne magnetic data, no gold-in-soil trends were defined by the soil sampling.
The soil sample results from the Dan property did not outline any gold trends. However, 18km of the prospective thrust fault system was not covered by the soil sampling work in 2010 and remains to be tested.
Taku also completed a high-definition, airborne magnetic and radiometric geophysical survey on the property in 2010.
