High-level exposure of an untested epithermal system with gold bearing veins
Location
The Table Mountain project consists of 90 claims located in eastern Nevada forty-five kilometres north of the town of Pioche within the Oligo-Miocene Indian Peak Caldera complex. The claims are located on BLM ground with rough road access.
Overview
Table Mountain consists of a four by two kilometre alteration cell composed of kaolinite and weakly crystalline illite consistent with the high levels of epithermal systems. The alteration cell is notable for the complete absence of historical work including drilling, prospect pits and legacy claim posts.
The property is cut by widespread veining with vein widths locally exceeding two metres and returning anomalous precious metal values of up to 2.62 g/t gold and 49.7 g/t silver. Two untested structural targets exist on the property:
- The high-angle faults bounding a graben that crosses the property and is rimmed by precious metal and overlain by strong pathfinder anomalism
- The southeastern fault zone which displays steam heated alteration in the hanging wall
