Regional Gold Potential
Ball Creek West is located in Canada, North America. The surrounding region has historically demonstrated a very high potential for gold endowment and is very proximal to other gold properties. Physical setting (high elevation, very high relief, continental climate) shapes access, seasonality, and operating costs. Geologically, the area is dominated by Siliciclastic sedimentary rocks, under thin lithosphere with moderately thick sedimentary cover in a Meso- and Cenozoic Orogen tectonic province—factors that inform both deposit style and development complexity.
Drill Intercepts
Reported results (Gold Equivalent) average moderate grade, very long, and moderate depth. The most recent intercepts are benchmarked against a global gold database.
