On the Nechako Plateau near the geographic centre of British Columbia, 162 km WSW of Prince George and 28 km NNW of Artemis Gold's Blackwater mine, with all-season access via the Kluskus Forest Service Road.
Aspen sits in a prospective mineral exploration area with volcanic stratigraphy on the eastern margin of the Stikine Terrane. Potential includes epithermal gold-silver and porphyry copper deposits, with possible VMS zinc-lead-copper mineralization.
The property is adjacent to the Dome rhyolite-laccolith structure, with quartz and jasper veining exposed at surface.
Airborne EM survey identified a conductor in 2010. Soil grid returned up to 4 ppb Au, with additional gold and zinc anomalies present.
Soil anomalies rich in gold and zinc across the zone.
Round-top hill of brecciated rhyolite and quartz veining, a potential rhyolite dome or laccolith.
Quartz-eye rhyolite with jasper and quartz veins.
A producing gold mine anchors the district: Artemis Gold’s Blackwater, 28 km south-southeast of the property, early-stage exploration with strategic proximity to established infrastructure and an active mining camp.
