Silver Stream
The 632-hectare (1,562 acres) Silver Stream is located approximately 25 kilometers northeast of the Bralorne gold mine in the Bridge River mining district. There is excellent potential on the Silver Stream Project to discover a gold-quartz vein deposit similar to Bralorne-Pioneer which produced 12.6 million tonnes grading 9.3 g/t. First explored in 1988, Silver Stream has produced a number of anomalous-to- significant gold showings in sampling, trenching and drilling. Trenching on Silver Stream’s western anomaly in 1995 exposed a mineralized shear zone ranging from one to four meters wide and at least 45 meters in strike that returned the following values:
- 8.9g/t Au (0.260 opt) over 2.8m
- 5.8g/t Au (0.169 opt) over 1.2m
- 9.6g/t Au (0.280 opt) over 1.0m
- 28.4 and 48.0 g/t (0.82 and 1.4 opt) Au from grab samples along strike
