ABOUT THE IMA PROPERTY
The IMA Property is located in the Lemhi Range, near the community of Patterson, Idaho,
located approximately 20 miles east of Challis, comprising of the IMA Mine, with 22 patented
claims on 395.98 acres and an additional 214.4 acres of patented ground in the adjacent
Pahsimeroi Valley. The patented claims are accessible over existing roads managed by the
Bureau of Land Management.
The IMA Property is a past producing tungsten property that began as a silver mine in the 1800s.
Between 1945 and 1957, while operated by the Bradley Mining Company, the IMA Mine
produced approximately 2,198 tons of WO 3 (199,449 MTUs), from 468k tonnes of ore with an
average recovered grade of 0.434% WO 3,2 and produced an additional sulfide concentrate
yielding 1.29M oz silver, 1.8M lbs copper, 2.92M l bs lead and 0.02M lbs zinc i. The IMA mine
shut down in 1958 upon collapse of the U.S. government tungsten buying program.
The property was subsequently explored for molybdenum by AMAX Inc. (1960 -1962),
Inspiration Development Company (“ Inspiration”) (1979-1982), Gentor Resources Ltd (2007-
2008), and other junior exploration companies. Inspiration ultimately focused on exploration and
development of the quartz -tungsten-vein system, rehabilitating upper levels of the mine to
complete underground resource de lineation drilling, conducting metallurgical work and
commencing construction of a haulage adit. ii Due to a decrease in tungsten prices, development
work ceased in 1982 prior to recommencement of mining.
Tungsten mineralization in the IMA Mine occurs in q uartz veins hosted in Precambrian
siliciclastic metasediments containing pyrite, fluorite, hubnerite, scheelite, tetrahedrite, galena,
sphalerite and chalcopyrite. The quartz veins occur in a zone up to 900 feet wide, 2000 feet long
and up to 700 feet in vertical extent 1. Molybdenite mineralization occurs in the veins and
disseminations in potassically altered Cenozoic porphyry intrusive that is exposed in the lower
levels of the IMA Mine and intersected in deeper historical drilling. Mineralization occurre nce
is interpreted as consistent with a sub -Climax type porphyry model with higher -level tungsten -
base metal veins. iii
The IMA Mine is situated close to key infrastructure items and resources, including paved county
roads, tier-1 low-cost power supply, acc ess to water rights, and a mining -oriented labour force.
