Talisker Discovers High-Grade Gold Zone at Mustang Mine
Event summary
- Talisker identified a 60-meter strike length of high-grade gold mineralization on the 1045 Level at Mustang Mine, averaging 27 g/t gold.
- New development on the 1060 Level revealed a high-grade ore shoot with assays up to 886 g/t over 0.51 meters.
- The discovery supports Talisker's geological model and reinforces confidence in the BK Vein system's expansion potential.
- Ramp and waste development on the 1030 Level is nearing completion, setting the stage for upcoming stope extraction.
The big picture
Talisker's discovery of high-grade gold zones at Mustang Mine underscores the potential for resource expansion in British Columbia's gold belts. The findings align with broader industry trends of high-grade underground mining gaining traction as open-pit reserves deplete. The company's ability to consistently intersect high-grade mineralization could position it as a key player in the region's gold production landscape.
