About Georgia River
The past-producing Georgi a River high-grade gold mine, which last operated in 1939 contains 1.2
kilometres of underground access on three levels and is located just 16 kilometres south of Stewart, BC.
Georgia River was explored from the 1970s by several companies with the intent of restarting the mine, but
this historic work only focused on the area hosting the existing mine workings , which appears to be
peripheral to the core of a much larger hydrothermal system. Only a small part of this massive hydrothermal
system was worked by the past producing mine.
Work by Auramex over the past few field seasons has generated compelling evidence in support of a large
intrusion-related gold target adjacent to the area of previous work. The target zone is marked by anomalous
surficial samples, the cross-cutting regional Sovereign Fault, a coincident conductivity high, and an Early
Jurassic intrusion belonging to the Texas Creek Plutonic Suite – a crucial component to large gold deposits
in the Golden Triangle.
The regional-scale Hume Creek deformation zone provided the “plumbing system” for hydrothermal fluids
related to the intrusion. Surface samples spanning more than a square kilometre carry gold values in excess
of a gram per tonne, demonstrating the extensive nature of the system. Field crews are finalizing
mobilization plans, and contractors are being selected to facilitate the 2020 field program which will involve
drill testing the newly defined high-grade gold target.
The technical disclosures in this release has been read and approved by Dr. Paul Metcalfe, P hD, P.Geo., a
qualified person as defined in National Instrument 43-101.
