Bathurst will continue to maintains a 100% interest in our adjoining claims (“Platinum Reef “) of similar size (10,433 ha) to the north that contain the same geological setting and potential. The Claims also host an upper layer of Palladium/ Platinum/Chromitite in an ultramafic layer. The Reef is exposed at surface with historical rock sampling indicating significantly higher Pd/Pt concentrations (up to 6.23 grams/tonne Pd/Pt) near structures hosting younger ultramafic dykes.”

We will now focus on developing our high-grade gold deposits at Turner Lake in Nunavut as well as the Peerless Property in British Columbia. We have our drill permit for Turner Lake and are currently setting up logistics for a productive field season. The Peerless Property which is located less than 20 kilometres from the historic Bralorne /Pioneer Gold Mines hosts historic drill intercepts of 1.02 ounces/tonne gold and 3.82 ounces/tonne silver over a 3.47-metre core length.  We have been working with first Nations and plan to drill test the Peerless later this year.”
