About Omineca Mining and Metals Ltd.
Omineca Mining and Metals Ltd.'s flagship Wingdam gold exploration and placer recovery project is
located along the Barkerville Highway 45 km east of the town of
Quesnel
. The property includes
hard-rock tenures totaling over 50,000 hectares (500 square kms) and in excess of 15 linear
kilometers of placer claims, both encompassing the Lightning Creek valley where topographic
conditions created a thick overburden which preserved a large portion of an underground channel
with placer gold-bearing gravels. Omineca also has a diamond drill program currently underway
exploring for the potential multiple hard rock sources of the placer gold at Wingdam.
