Located less than 20 kilometres from the historic Bralorne/Pioneer and King Gold Mines
Project’s known gold/silver and base metal mineralization is similar to these mines in that the

ultramafic intrusive/ volcaniclastic-sedimentary contact.
Property contains three known showings, Alpha, Beta and Peerless with limited historical,
systematic surface and underground exploration starting in the 1930’s. The property lies at low
altitude and has year-round road access
Historic drilling intercepted mineralization at the Alpha Zone such as: Hole 87-8, starting at 19.8
metres of 1.02 oz/tonne gold and 3.82 oz/tonne silver over a 3.47 metres core length . Zone
remains open along strike and to depth.
Recent exploration work has defined an east-northeast trending, in soil multi-element
(gold/silver/arsenic/ antimony/lead/zinc/bismuth/copper) anomaly over 2,500 x 750 metres and
remains open in all directions.
Hardy Forzley, Bathurst’s CEO states: “With this acquisition, Bathurst secures a significant mineral rights
