The Carruthers Pass massive sulfide is a volcanogenic massive sulfide located 70 km south of the Kemess copper-gold mine in the Omineca Mining Division. The project consists of 8 claims with 130 units, covering approximately 3,250 hectares. The project, initially staked based on the presence of a large massive sulfide boulder, was bolstered by the discovery in 2008 of in-place massive sulfide mineralization in horizons.
Sampling undertaken during the 2008 program (104 samples in total) returned several anomalous results with the following table representing selective grab samples from the more significant copper rich showings.
Sample # | Copper (%) | Zinc (%) | Silver (grams/t) | Gold (ppb) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
39710 | 6.78 | 4.81 | 171.0 | 1.47 |
