BRONSON SLOPE / SNIPPAKER CREEK

Size (combined) > 12,600 ha

Skyline Gold will most likely be putting Bronson Slope into production upon the installation of the hydro grid slated for completion over the next year or so.  The area will then have power and road access and will quickly become one of the most sought after areas in Golden Triangle.

This property has HUGE potential for Copper Gold porphyry, vein, scarn & VMS deposits with more than a half dozen prominent showings located throughout.  A couple areas have been drilled to a small extent and returned promising results.  Several of the best  geochemical anomalies in the region lay within the claims.  This particular RGS indicates to me there is also good probability of a porphyry deposit between Teck's Snip 2 claim, my claims and Skyline Gold's claims.  Recently Skyline inquired about acquiring more than 2200 ha of property (including the RGS area) but did not come to an agreement.  After rethinking the acquisition, they intimated to me  that they had too much on their plates already with previous and ongoing acquisitions and suggested they would revisit the opportunity next season.  

My preference is to sell or option in one lot rather than break it up if at all possible as it has taken me several years to amass this formidable claim block.

Additional  Highlights of the Property are:

Gold Prospect

MINFILE No 082ESW112

The best gold and silver values from surface sampling to date, occur in the northernmost roadcut of the Road zone. Gold values increase from 0.40 gram per tonne at the south end to 3.60 grams per tonne at the north end (Assessment Report 13477). Resampling in 1989 yielded 1.5 grams per tonne gold and 11.9 grams per tonne silver over 6.5 metres (Assessment Report 18892). The zone is coincident with a broad magnetic low.

Drillhole 1984-1 on this zone yielded a high value of 0.225 gram per tonne (Assessment Report 13477). Silver values are highest at the south end, ranging from 11.0 to 14.5 grams per tonne (Assessment Report 13477). The veins appear to carry most of the gold, although wallrocks are also slightly anomalous. The 1989 drill program yielded several significant gold intersections. Drillhole 72474 yielded 15.5 grams per tonne gold over 0.54 metres between 42.78 and 43.32 metres. Similarly, drillhole 72478 yielded 13.62 grams per tonne gold over the 0.22 metre interval between 109.90 and 110.12 metres elevation (Assessment Report 18892).

 

Assessment Reports: 4763, 5009, 5702, 5886, 8961, 9413, 10410, 10624, 10735, 11276, 11745, 11798, 12156, 12750, 13113, *13477, 17327, *18892

VENNER Prospect

MINFILE No 082ESW127

The best assay results from the 1988 exploration program were as follows. A grab sample from a 15 centimeter calcite vein in 1988 trenching near Trench G (140E) yielded up to 94.97 grams per tonne silver. Sampling from the same trench also yielded 2.74 grams per tonne gold over 1 metre (Assessment Report 17327). The trench uncovered a 0.3 to 1.0 metre wide carbonate-quartz vein. The wallrocks carried lower gold values. Slightly further east (162.5E), north-trending drusy quartz veins along the andesite-rhyolite contact yielded 12.07 grams per tonne gold and 9.15 grams per tonne gold over 2 metres (Assessment Report 17327). Still further east (175E) a 0.5 metre wide quartz-carbonate breccia along the andesite-rhyolite contact yielded 4.49 grams per tonne gold over 2 metres and 10.49 grams per tonne gold from a grab sample (Assessment Report 17327).

Gold assay results from diamond-drill holes were similar. Drillhole 1988-22 yielded 12.68 grams per tonne from the interval 45.0 to 45.72 metres at the bottom of the hole. A breccia zone with irregular narrow quartz stringers yielded 3.84 grams per tonne gold between 16 and 17 metres in drillhole 1988-23. Drillhole 1988-29 yielded 2.60 grams per tonne gold and 3.22 grams per tonne gold at 32 to 33 metres and 34 to 35 metres, respectively. Drillhole 1983-9, near drillhole 1988-29, was re-analyzed and yielded 4.11 grams per tonne gold over the interval from 55 to 56 metres (Assessment Report 17327)

IMPORTANT INFORMATION

Required by Law to Post

Crown Grants – Active Crown granted 2 post mineral claims (CG) normally hold the right to all minerals as defined in the Mineral Act under which the CG was originally issued.  A cell claim registered over an active CG holds no right to the minerals held by the CG.  No exploration or development of these minerals can occur on a valid CG without agreement from the owner.  The CG title has prior rights with respect to use of the surface and mining activities. However, a mineral claim staked over a reverted crown grant has the same rights as any standard mineral claim.

The survey parcel layer on the MTO map shows all surveyed parcels, including CG lots; however, these lots include both current and reverted CG’s. The “active” status means the survey has not been cancelled—it has no relevance to the status of the CG title.  The status of the CG must be ascertained from the Mineral, Oil and Gas Revenue office

* All of the Crown Grants on any BC Mining Properties claims can be checked on-line to determine if they are active or not.  In most cases this has already been done in order to make the determination as to the potential viability and salability of the property. Any and all information can be reconfirmed upon request.

MAGNESIUM DEPOSIT

(PGE) Ni-Co-Cu-Pt +

Cogburn / Talc Creeks

Harrison Lake, BC

Area History - The Pacific Nickel Mine (also known as the B.C. Nickel Mine and the Giant Mascot Mine (not part of the property being offered), is located in the southeast part of the East Harrison Lake Ultramafic Belt, approximately seven kilometers north of Hope, British Columbia, was a significant producer of nickel and copper. Between the mid-1970s and early 2000, government mineral exploration assessment records suggest that little exploration work had been carried out in the vicinity of the mine or within the East Harrison Lake Belt. As one of the largest Canadian producers of Cu and Ni, the lack of exploration activity for almost twenty-five years suggested that the belt was underexplored, and that it represented a prime target for a concerted and systematic exploration program.

The Emory Zone (located next to the available claims) was once noted as being a "World Class" Magnesium Deposit with a measured resource estimate of 25.5 million metric tons grading 40.5% MgO (24.5% magnesium) by weight. Leader Mining who owns the ground has been under a cease-trade order since March of 2003.

Three zones were drilled and tested for Magnesium in the development of the Emory Zone. The Teuton Area (located within the claims area) was tested by six drill holes for a total of 303.6m. Weighed averages for four drill holes (located on the available claims) range from 24.36 wt% Mg to 25.95 wt% Mg.  Overall impurities of Fe, Ca. S, B and Ni are quite low and well within the Hatch tolerances. Drill holes in the Teuton area generally have the most consistent down-hole Mg concentrations of all the areas drill tested to date. Overall magnesium grade is only slightly lower than that in the Emory Zone (25.25% vs. 25.87%) and impurity levels (particularly S) are very low. These features make the southeastern part of the Teuton area a target for follow up next to the Emory Zone.

(see the geological maps below)

Hi-Resolution - Leader - Mapped Geological

PDF Geological Map

Effectively, the results indicate another large Magnesium deposit grading >25% magnesium covering an area of approximately 1350m x 600m x  50.6m.  The zone also appears to get better toward the north-east where it extends beyond the drilled area for an additional 1000m.

Summary

This presents an EXCELLENT opportunity to slingshot past a grounded junior and move forward with a fresh stand-alone magnesium play by simply following the footsteps previously taken by Leader Mining.

 

Leader Mining report - "The Teuton Area is characterized by overall grade consistency and low impurity levels which make the area a second viable target for drill follow-up."

VIKING MINE

- Pitt Lake, BC-

900 samples of the workings along the 4 ' wide main vein averaged;

146 gpt Silver / 1.99 gpt Gold / 3.9% Copper

16,000 tons has been blocked out

A 2nd vein at the 90' level opens up to 100 feet in width! For every foot the vein is advanced it continues to open another foot.  This clearly has the potential to exponentially increase the available tonnage in this mine.  16k tons could easily increase to 500k tons or more.

16,000 tons of this ore is valued around 7 million dollars at today's prices

A 3rd vein also appears to have been identified 100m north of the current workings using IP/Resistivity survey.

Three potential drill targets in total have been identified.

BIGHORN GOLD

This property is no bigger than a postage stamp 175m x 500m but holds the lion's share of the inferred inventory of

77,216 tons @ 5.83 gpt gold

I have carefully plotted this out several times according to the provided maps, Google Earth and Ozi Explorer maps and always come up with the same conclusion;

Most of the inferred reserves lay within the claim boundaries based on the reports, maps and my interpretations.

This equates to a minimum of $7 Million dollars of gold using a extremely conservative a factor of 50% as a cut off.

Actual is closer to 80%

This is from ARIS 10069

The Lawson vein was examined at several sites on the property; for example in the Blacksmith adit, elevation 1080 meters; in the Incline adit, elevation 1265 meters; and, immediately above the Incline adit in outcrop. The vein exposure in the adits are horizontally 400 meters apart through a vertical distance of 185 meters. The vein averages slightly over 1 meter in width.

One of the issues I have had plotting the location of the vein is the reports show the contour lines in feet and the MTO maps are in meters.  They don't line up in this case every inch of ground is going to make a difference as to the valuation of reserves.

Geochemical Anomalies

RGS - GEOCHEMICAL CLAIMS

I have accumulated many of the best geochemical RGS (stream / lake / till sediment / moss mat sampled) claims in the province over the past couple of years. Anomalous geochemical results are clearly one of the best initial indicators that a mineral deposit of some extent exists in the immediate area.  I have spent many hours searching records along with any other available sources of information before staking these many of these claims.  Although there are no guarantees that the source of the anomaly will become economically viable once it is located, but I can tell you with some certainty that gold for example, generally does not travel far from it's source and the likelihood of finding it on the available claim is very good in most cases. I also always over-stake the claim rather than under-stake if there is any doubt whatsoever provided there is available ground to do so.  These claims are clearly some of the best grass-roots mineral properties in British Columbia.  When you find anomalies ranging in excess 2000 ppb, especially gold, they must be staked and prospected to conclusion.

BC MINING PROPERTIES

BC Mining Properties has made substantial investments of time and money toward seeking out and staking some of the best mining properties available in British Columbia. With such a vast amount of property with potential ranging from Eskay Creek type VMS to simple high-grade vein deposits, the sorting and prioritizing of these properties is clearly a major undertaking.   The first order of business would be to sort and identify all key high-priority drill-ready targets.  Upon identification and favorable results from preliminary work programs, the properties can then be prioritized with the best prospects being moved into the a primary company and lower priority properties optioned or spun off into new ventures or dropped completely.  As properties are dropped, new properties are constantly being staked and evaluated to continually add value to the company. This is a win / win scenario. The probability of finding one or more major deposits along with several smaller scale minable showings remains extremely high. Many  of the past producing mines and prospects owned by BC Mining Properties have excellent minable existing resources that would support putting them back into production while several others are clearly going to need additional development to prove up the economics of doing so. The opportunities that exist within this portfolio of mining properties are  tremendous.

If you are interested in either purchasing all or any part of the assets of BC Mining Properties (including the assignment of existing optioned properties $$$) or have ideas that may include a partnership or fit within an existing public or new company; please contact:

Copper / Silver / Gold Property

Vancouver Island, BC

Production Report

Property File

Based on former drilling ,plans and sections of the 1,750' and 1,900' levels, indicated reserves were reported as 118,450 tons a t 1.05% Cu, 0.02 oz/t Au, 0.60 oz/t Ag (C.W. B a l , 23/03/81 in VSE Statement of Material Facts 61/81, Uke Resources Ltd.).

The property also has a highly anomalous RGS stream sediment sample  located in the NE corner that returned 1262 ppb gold and 3000 ppm copper and 11.3 grams per ton silver.  This a mine-grade anomaly substantiating high-grade mineralization at least 600m east of the actual Yreka Mine. This property has HUGE potential.

 

 

Conclusions - ARIS Report 2597

The Yreka property is underlain by economically favorable geological formations, particularly the Lower to Mid Jurassic Bonanza Group and coeval intrusions. Widespread alteration and mineralization are present throughout the entire property. The copper skarn horizon of significant lateral extent and thickness of up to 250 metres has a potential to host additional economic mineralization outside of the old Yreka mine area and there are surface indications that other styles of mineralization of significant size such as porphyry copper-moly (-gold) might also be discovered. A total of 8 mineral prospects have been identified within the newly defined exploration perimeter ranging 200 to 1000 metres from the mine. A few of them contain numerous showings and exploratory adits but none was a past producer. Most were discovered and explored preliminarily in the past but steep terrain and limited budgets prevented completion of most proposed work programs. During the course of 1998 surveys, 5 of the 8 prospects were examined and sampled. Two prospects, Clyde and North Arm, revealed particularly promising geological features and returned encouraging assay results. They were selected as targets for the 1999 exploration programs (Figure 18 above). At Clyde, the first target, extensive exploratory adits completed at the turn of the century are inaccessible but were surveyed by Noranda in 1953-53. Grades obtained underground correlate well with results obtained during 1998 sampling on surface. Indications are that additional important mineralization is present within and near the old workings. In spite of considerable surface and underground work done over the years, only two short holes were drilled in this area in 1953 (Figure 7). Later, in 1954, Noranda used deeper holes to delineate a blind deposit at Yreka, 400 metres to the north. The skarn horizon hosting localized sulphide mineralization at Clyde is approximately 250 metres thick and has never been drill tested across the full width. It dips approximately 30” west-southwest towards the North Arm prospect situated 250 to 400 metres west of the Clyde portals. Topographic conditions would allow testing of this zone by step-out holes. The 1998 soil and rock geochemistry surveys have followed on surface the extension of the footwall. part of the main zone (“lower skarn band”) to the northeast for a total distance of 300 metres. Significant widths of mineralized outcrops were sampled and locally revealed encouraging precious metal values (Figure 9).The second target is the area situated between the Clyde and the North Arm Creek F (North Arm prospect). Numerous mineralized gossans were located to the east of North Arm Creek by following a strong, open copper anomaly in soils outlined in 1972 (see paragraph 8.1). The anomaly was poorly defined due to size of the grid (130 x 180 m). The style of mineralization in outcrops appears to be quite different from the Yreka skarn area. Red-brown iron oxides observed in the weathering zone with silicification and copper-molybdenite mineralization might indicate a transitional zone toward a copper porphyry system at depth. The geological setting of the area including the presence of thick skarn nearby (Clyde prospect) favors a porphyry copper-moly(-gold) system as a prime target of economic interest (Figure 18 above).

ARIS REPORT 26040

In 1953 the company conducted detailed mapping and “X-Ray” diamond drilling. Two short holes were drilled at the portal of Tunnel # 1 on the Clyde workings. One hole intersected 18.5 feet of 1.42 % copper.

Kutcho Creek Jade

Placer Mine

Kutcho - MINFILE 104I 078

Inferred Reserves of 2500 tonnes

The property is mainly known for its nephrite jade boulders which are partially or completely buried in overburden. In 1986, ten nephrite jade boulders were drilled to determine quality prior to excavation. Exploration and drilling yielded several boulders of which 16.52 tonnes were mined and shipped to the Kutcho Airstrip for processing (Assessment Report 15940). Some boulders graded C+ in quality which is appropriate for carvings and jewelry, and varied to B grade. Boulders grading C- to D grade are not salable.

Inferred reserves are 2500 tonnes of nephrite jade of unspecified grade (Open File 1992-1). Operators of the property were Jade West Resources Ltd. of Vancouver.

BS - MINFILE No 104I 063

Several lens of nephrite and numerous nephrite boulders are reported to occur on the BS claims. Drilling in 1979 described the major occurrence as about 24.7 tonnes of "B-" nephrite in the "D" lense. In 1979, it was estimated that there was over 60 tonnes of jade ranging from C to B+ grade. It was reported (Assessment Report 15940) that mining of the boulders occurred in 1982-1983 by Mohawk Oil, yielding B quality jade. Further exploration occurred in 1986.

Key Additional Ground has been acquired through staking to bring together two additional properties and effectively more than tripling the size of the

Amy / Cub

SILVER, LEAD, ZINC, DEPOSIT

Property

The Property Now Includes:

the Gunnar Berg Prospect

the Rancheria Prospect

the Nancy Prospect

the Luck Showing

the Bear Showing

The Amy Deposit is ranked as the 52nd largest silver deposit in British Columbia with No meaningful Production

850,000 Ounces Silver

Drilled and Measured Reserves

72,431 tonnes

plus an additional

59,000 tonnes at an unstated grade

Measured and indicated reserves are 72,431 tonnes grading 366.7 grams per tonne silver, 6.03 per cent zinc, and 2.84 per cent lead (Statement of Material Facts 88-81, Marbaco Resources Ltd.) plus another 59,000 tonnes at an unstated grade for a total of 131,431 tonnes.

Assuming the unstated grade was the same (and in most likelihood it is) the combined 131,431 tonnes of ore represents more than 1.55 million oz. of silver, 15.8 million lbs. zinc & 7.46 million lbs. of lead.

ORE VALUE $69.5 Million

What is REALLY interesting about the Amy / Cub property is drilling results were nowhere near consistent with the much higher values revealed from the more than 250m of underground workings.  "From a 66 foot length in the east drift, on a vein averaging 5.9 feet wide, face samples assayed:

SILVER = 27.4 oz / ton

LEAD = 3.5%

ZINC = 7.4%

This being the case; the suggestion is that the property may very well  have an actual  resource similar to the Silver Tip deposit (5 miles to the east) than what has been interpreted though the initial drilling and extremely poor core recovery. 

If that were the case; the AMY / CUB Property has nothing less than Exponential Potential as you can add at least one more "0" to the $69.5 M Ore Value stated above.

Approximate Size: 3485 ha

MINTON EXTENSION

Gold Bridge, BC

Gold - 4.7000 g/t from a 6.8-metre length of drill core

A small trenching program in 1988 uncovered the following gold values:

TRENCH MET 88-1: 9.5 m of 0.129 oz/ton Au

TRENCH MET 88-2: 14.5 m of 0.066 oz/ton Au

TRENCH MET 88-4: 5.0 m of 0.133 oz/ton Au

TRENCH MET 88-5: 1.0 m of 0.116 oz/ton Au

In 1989 a short 2000 meter drill program returned the following:

DH 89-ME-1

0.12 oz / ton Au over 2.29 m

1 oz / ton Au over 1.9 m

DH 89-ME-2

0.233 oz / ton Au over 0.5 m

0.137 oz / ton Au over 6.8 m

DH 89-ME-3

0.2 oz / ton Au over 1.7 m

DH 89-ME-4

0.083 oz / ton Au over 1.4 m

All five drill holes contained anomalous gold over 1 gpt.  The highest silver value was 1.0 oz /ton over 1.5 m in drillhole 89-ME-1

Clearly, with intervals as long as 6.8 m, there is measurable tonnage with exponential  potential to develop this deposit with an infill drill program.

In 1988, Mingold Resources discovered silicified and brecciated Ootsa Lake Group rhyolitic rocks which contained up to 1026 grams per tonne silver and 5.4 grams per tonne gold. In 1990, a small VLF-EM resistivity survey was completed and succeeded in outlining two distinct anomalous zones which coincided with the known areas of silicification and precious metal mineralization. In 1994, Hudson Bay Mining and Smelting completed 773.4 metres of diamond drilling in 5 holes, testing IP anomalies. In 1996, a further 6 holes, totaling 1610 metres were completed, testing deeper IP targets.

INDIANA / SUMMIT

Prospects

(Reverted Crown Grant) Size >21 ha

Trenching has exposed the vein mineralization for 390m

ARIS Report 18111 Page 26

The channel samples returned some very high results and also indicates that the vein is mineralized, in varying degrees, throughout the entire exposed strike length. The highest assays from the survey for copper, lead, zinc, silver and gold are 0.95%, 51.58%, 22.99%, 119.80 oz/ton and .095 oz/ton respectively for the Summit trench and .32%, 34.96%, 19.39%, 60.28 oz/ton and 0.144 oz/ton for the Indiana trench.

Approximately 315m of trenching lies on the available claim as well as the past producing Summit Mine Shaft.  This is another excellent sweetheart property that could be set up for a bulk sample permit. A little drilling and blasting could go a long way (about 315m to be exact).  The Summit  Minfile is misplaced to the east some 150m or so as you can see on the MTO map. Google Earth comes through with the truth once again.
