MOJAVE PROPERTY

LocationInyo County, California
Land PackageMore than 12 exploration targets with only 2 drilled by previous ownership, over a 5,830 hectares.
Minerlization consists ofSediment-hosted oxide gold, that is structurally controlled silver – base metal +/- gold. Potential for Cu-Au Porphyry mineralization on western side of project.

Gold mineralization was first discovered at Soda Ridge on the Northwest corner of the Mojave Property by Mobil in 1984. Prior to K2’s recently completed work at least eight other gold rich areas on the property had been recorded and partially investigated by exploration and mining companies, most notably Newmont and BHP. To date 145 drill holes have been completed by three companies: Newmont in 1985 (22 RC holes), Asamera in 1986 (113 RC and diamond drill holes), and BHP in 1997 (10 RC holes) on three of the nine gold targets. Other companies that have explored on the Mojave property include Great Bear Resources and SSR Mining but the recent work by K2 is the most extensive and comprehensive since 1997. There are now 12 gold and base metal exploration targets on the Mojave property.

The historical drill programs focused on three different target areas on the property, Newmont, Empire Zone and Dragonfly. Highlights of historical drill results include 1.05 g/t over 99.06m, 2.1 g/t Au over 16.8m, and 1.54 g/t Au over 24.4m.

Since acquiring the property, the Company has completed geochemical and geophysical surveys, geologic mapping LiDAR, a World-View 3 alteration survey, and completed a 17 hole – 2540m RC drilling program focused on the Dragonfly and Newmont Zones.
