WELS PROJECT
| Location | Western Yukon, approximately 40km from Beaver Creek, YT and 60km south of Newmont Goldcorp’s 4Moz Coffee deposit. Located in the traditional territory of White River First Nation with which K2 has a cooperative relationship. |
|---|---|
| Land Package | 350 contiguous quartz claims covering 7,200 hectares. |
| Mineralization | Structurally controlled gold mineralization within granitic intrusives, gabbro, and metasediments with similarities to the Coffee and Golden Saddle deposits. Includes 3 known trends of mineralization, only 1 drilled to date, and over 80% of the property is unexplored. |
- Wels is underlain by metasedimentary and metvolcanic rocks of the White River Formation that have been intruded by a series of Triassic gabbroic sills, and Cretaceous granitic plugs. This package has been cut by a series of WNW trending structures that host alteration and gold mineralization. Mineralization is noted in all rock types observed on the property to date and is associated with quartz veining, brecciation, and sericite alteration with anomalous As, Sb, and, locally, visible gold. All mineralized trends remain open along strike and approximately 80% of the property is unexplored.
