WestMountain Gold | About the Company
WestMountain Gold owns and operates the Terra Gold Project in Alaska – a promising gold and silver project
-
Located 130 miles (210 km) west-northwest of Anchorage, Alaska with 344 Mining Claims covering over 85 sqr. miles / 55,000 acres (220 sqr. km)
-
Situated along the Tintina Gold Belt where large mineral resources have been discovered and are being mined
-
Gold and silver is in the form of electrum and is concentrated in narrow vertical veins of quartz located on the property
-
Currently permitted for advanced exploration, with bulk sampling operations providing potential for cash flow during exploration program
Technical Resource Report (NI 43-101) estimated indicated and inferred resource of 1,933,432 oz gold (Au) at 2.1 g/t and 3,194,680 oz silver (Ag) at 3.4 g/t for underground bulk mining at Ben Zone with a 1.0 g/t and open pit mining at Fish Zone with a 0.35 g/t cutoff
-
To date, more than 4,500 ounces of gold have been extracted from ~3,000 tonnes processed – representing grade of ~46 g/t Au (1.35 oz/t)
-
Drilled 74 holes / 15,392 meters on four claims – representing only a fraction of the potential gold and silver resources on property
-
Existing infrastructure in place for continued exploration
Other identified locations on the property show significant potential for mineralization
-
In addition to holes drilled, over 2,000 surface samples assayed
-
Additional exploration techniques included magnetic surveying, induced polarization studies (IP), very-low frequency radio wave analysis (VLF) LiDAR, high-resolution aerial photography, and geological mapping in broader claims area indicate mineralization across the property
Ideal mining location with “Green Gold” operations leaving minimal environmental impact - Gravity Separation
-
No international currency or political risk; no fish or wildlife issues; no Native land-claim, NIMBYism, wetlands or environmental issues
-
No Federal mining permits or impact studies required - US Army Corp of Engineers - Jurisdictional Determination
-
Current operations use traditional mining methods; crushing rocks and flushing with water – the output of which is gold and silver, water and rock
-
Water and rock ultimately go back into the ground
