Mabel Gold Property History
Little is known of early work on the property. Some previous
work on the property consisted of modest silica flux mining
reported to have a 2 to 6g/t Au and 30 to 1240 g/t Ag credits.
Placer mining in the general area dates back to Spanish Colonial
times and sporadic efforts continue to the present.
More recently Minera Teck (Teck-Cominco Ltd.) studied the area
on a regional basis and, in mid-1995, filed a claim around the
Mabel claim. Teck completed surface sampling with positive
results in 1999-2000 but elected not to option the property
despite recommendations for acquisition by staff geologists who
concluded that the core of the gold system lay within the Mabel
claim. Teck has since dropped their land holdings in the area.
Newmont did some work on the property and the adjacent district
and took about 60 samples in the area with “encouraging”
results.
