West Mining Corp. (CSE:WEST, OTC:WESMF) has announced the start of an exploration program on its 100% owned Junker Property in northern British Columbia. The program will combine existing geophysical and sampling surveys with new multispectral satellite image analysis to identify high-potential gold, copper, and silver targets for summer field investigation.

The 2,100-hectare property has shown promising initial results, including a stream sediment sample above the 99th percentile for gold. Previous rock samples have yielded up to 1.28 g/t gold, 8.64 g/t silver, and 0.4% copper. The company aims to advance all projects in its portfolio, including the flagship Kena Project near Nelson, BC, which has a 2021 NI43-101 resource estimate of 561,900 oz Au indicated and 2,773,100 oz Au inferred.

West Mining Corp. (CSE:WEST, OTC:WESMF) ha annunciato l'avvio di un programa di esplorazione sulla sua proprietà Junker, di cui detiene il 100% presso la British Columbia settentrionale. Il programma combinerà indagini geofisiche e di campionamento esistenti con una nuova analisi delle immagini satellitari multispettrali per identificare obiettivi a elevato potenziale per oro, rame e argento da investigare sul campo quest'estate.

La proprietà di 2.100 ettari ha mostrato risultati iniziali promettenti, inclusi un campione di sedimento fluviale al di sopra del 99° percentile per l'oro. I precedenti campioni di roccia hanno restituito fino a 1,28 g/t oro, 8,64 g/t argento e 0,4% rame. L'azienda mira a far avanzare tutti i progetti nel suo portafoglio, incluso il progetto di punta Kena Project vicino a Nelson, BC, che ha una stima di risorse NI43-101 del 2021 di 561.900 oz di Au indicate e 2.773.100 oz di Au inferite.

VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / July 24, 2024 / WEST MINING CORP. ("WEST" OR THE "COMPANY") (CSE:WEST)(OTC PINK:WESMF)(FRA:1HL) is pleased to announce commencement of an exploration program on the 100% owned Junker Property in northern British Columbia. The program will integrate existing geophysical and sampling surveys with new multispectral satellite image analysis to identify high potential gold, copper and silver targets for follow-up field investigation this summer.

The multispectral analysis is expected to begin by examining European Space Agency Sentinel 2 images with falsecolor, shortwave infrared bands to create composite images with PCA results at 20 m per pixel resolution. Targets identified from this work will be defined in greater detail by high resolution satellite image capture and analysis. These datasets will be integrated with existing airborne magnetic and field sampling surveys before follow-up in the field.

As noted in a West news release dated March 22, 2021, initial interest in the Junker Property was sparked by a stream sediment sample that is above the 99th percentile gold (INNA), collected as part of the BC Ministry of Mines Regional Geochemical Sampling program. Similar signatures with 98th or 99th percentile gold in stream sediment samples were returned near the historic Lawyers, Kemess and Baker Mines.

The Junker Property covers 2,100 hectares and is underlain by Lower to Middle Jurassic marine sedimentary and volcanic rocks of the Hazelton Group. In 2004, Stealth Minerals collected 19 rock samples and 13 silt samples for geochemical analysis (see BC Ministry of Mines Assessment Report #27637). Rock samples consisted of grabs from float and subcrop. PIMA spectroscopy analysis was done on 16 rock samples to determine alteration.

  • A float sample of quartz with pyrite yielded 1.28 g/t gold and 1.69 g/t silver (sample 151456).

  • A sample of pyritic quartz vein subcrop yielded 0.1 % copper and 1.08 g/t gold (sample 151405).

  • A dacitic subcrop sample containing thin quartz stringers with pyrite yielded 0.4% copper and 8.64 g/t silver (sample 151401). This sample was located about 500 metres east of sample 151405.

Nader Vatanchi, West Mining's Chief Executive Officer, said "we are excited to follow up on previous interest and begin work on our Junker property. Our goal is to advance all the projects in West's portfolio moving forward."
