FOREST KERR GOLD PROJECT

Aben’s flagship gold project is located in the heart of BC’s Golden Triangle in northwestern British Columbia, Canada. The consolidation of three historic claim groups and additional new tenures assembled in July 2016, Aben Resources has acquired 100% interest on the 23,397-hectare property. Surrounding the project are notable mineral deposits and producing mines including Brucejack, Eskay Creek, Snip, Galore Creek, Copper Canyon, Red Chris, and various others. Recent investment in the Golden Triangle has created direct road access to the Forrest Kerr property and power line infrastructure.

Forrest Kerr, BC’s Golden Triangle

The Golden Triangle region is known for large multi-million-ounce gold deposits. Forrest Kerr is located in the heart of the triangle with the Snip and Eskay Creek mines to the south, and Schaft Creek mine to the north. Click to enlarge the map.

Exploration Activity

Recent exploration activity at Forrest Kerr has focused on two primary zones: the North Boundary zone which runs parallel to the Nelson Creek Fault zone, and the South Boundary zone, which runs parallel to the Benchlands Fault zone. The structural intersections between dominantly north-oriented fault zones and older northeast and northwest-trending faults are highly prospective for the discovery of precious metal mineralization.

NORTH BOUNDARY

The main mineralized core at North Boundary is located at the intersection of the northeast directed Blind Fault and the northwest Nelson Creek Fault Zone (see red dashed ellipse). The strongest gold mineralization thus far discovered is along a southeast-northwest panel of Hazelton rock at the margins of a magnetic high.
