Discovery Energy Metals Corp. Acquisition
Discovery Energy Metals Corp. has expressed enthusiasm about acquiring the Crystal Lake Copper Property. The property, which spans approximately 5,283 hectares, is comprised of eight mineral claims. It is noted for its excellent location and infrastructure, being road-accessible and near key facilities such as a CN Rail Line, BC Hydro electrical transmission line, and a gas line along Highway 16.
Exploration and Geological Potential
The property has a history of early-stage exploration, including a high-definition magnetic survey conducted in 2009-2010, which outlined a ~2.3km diameter porphyry intrusion. This geological feature is associated with a copper-bearing diorite porphyry stockwork system and a regional fault structure. Grab samples from the area have returned up to 0.7% copper, indicating significant exploration potential.
