-A Comparative Analysis-

MAC’s, Camp Zone Mo/Cu Deposit vs. the Ruby Creek Mo Deposit

The MAC Camp Zone and Ruby Creek deposits both represent significant molybdenum (Mo) projects in British Columbia, with unique characteristics that distinguish them. Here’s how the two compare:

Location and Ownership

• The MAC Property including the Camp Zone is situated approximately 100 km east of Smithers, or I95 km NW of Ft St. James BC via high-speed logging roads and is 100% Owned with no NSR commitments.

• Ruby Creek: Located near Atlin, BC, and 100% owned by Stuhini Exploration, this deposit is a primarily molybdenum-focused resource with no significant copper component.

RESOURCE COMPARISON

At a 0.02% Molybdenum Cut-Off Grade:

1. MAC Camp Zone:

• Indicated Resource: 153.49 million lbs Mo Eq.

• Inferred Resource: 294.56 million lbs Mo Eq.

• Total Resource: 448.05 million lbs Mo Eq.

• Includes copper, contributing to economic diversification and increased overall grade.

2. Ruby Creek:

• Measured and Indicated Resource: 432.9 million lbs Mo.

• Inferred Resource: 43.6 million lbs Mo (not included in direct comparison).

• Primarily a molybdenum deposit, with no notable copper contribution.

GRADE & METAL COMPOSITION

• MAC - Camp Zone:

• Molybdenum equivalent grade of 0.049% Mo Eq (Inferred) and 0.078% Mo Eq (Indicated).

• Copper adds significant value, with a Cu Eq grade of 0.310% in the Indicated resource.

• Ruby Creek:

• Average grade of 0.062% Mo in the Measured and Indicated categories.

• No copper component, making the deposit entirely dependent on molybdenum prices.

ECONOMIC IMPLICATIONS

• The MAC Camp Zone offers the advantage of a combined molybdenum-copper system. This diversification provides a hedge against fluctuating molybdenum prices and enhances the overall economics of the deposit. Additionally, MAC’s higher contained copper makes it a more versatile asset with potential appeal to both base and specialty metal markets.

• Ruby Creek, on the other hand, represents a world-class molybdenum deposit with a strong, standalone resource. Its higher molybdenum grade may suit operations focusing solely on Mo production.

WHY MAC STANDS OUT

• Larger Combined Resource: With 448.05 million lbs Mo Eq (Indicated + Inferred), MAC slightly surpasses Ruby Creek’s 432.9 million lbs Mo (Measured + Indicated).

• Copper Component: The inclusion of copper enhances MAC’s resource base and positions it well for long-term economic development in a multi-metal market.

• Exploration Upside: MAC has further potential for resource expansion and exploration, adding to its appeal as a dynamic and evolving asset.

The MAC Camp Zone and Ruby Creek deposits represent two significant molybdenum-focused opportunities in British Columbia. While Ruby Creek has the advantage of advanced delineation, the MAC deposit stands out for its superior grades and additional potential revenue from copper, and a far superior location and infrastructure making it a compelling investment opportunity.

THE MAC CAMP ZONE - AN EMERGING GIANT?

• Economic Advantage:

Even without drilling to the measured category, the MAC Camp Zone’s inferred and indicated grades already surpass the combined MoEq grades of the Ruby Creek deposit. This highlights the strong economic potential of MAC and underscores the opportunity for further exploration to upgrade and expand its resource base.

RUBY CREEK DEPOSIT - AN ESTABLISHED RESOURCE

Ruby Creek, (Stuhini Exploration), is a well-established molybdenum deposit with resources in the measured and indicated categories totaling over 432.9 million lbs of molybdenum. The deposit benefits from advanced exploration and drilling that has allowed for greater resource classification confidence.

• Pure Molybdenum Focus:

Ruby Creek offers significant molybdenum resources but lacks the multi-metal diversification that MAC provides.

• Lower Combined Grade:

While Ruby Creek’s resource size is larger in certain categories, its combined molybdenum equivalent grade is lower than MAC’s, limiting its economic potential compared to the higher-grade MAC deposit.

WHAT’S NEXT?

• Complete delineation drilling at the Camp Zone, including drilling across the quartz monzonite stock between the East and Northwest contact zones. This will also bring much of the Inferred Resource into the Indicated category.

• Expanding drilling coverage at the Camp Zone to step-out and off-set drilling of unconstrained intercepts, particularly to the South and to depth on both the East and Northwest contact zones.

• Carry out a proposed (HIGH PRIORITY) 10-hole drill program near the Peak Zone where geochem has outlined a 1.8 km area along the contact of an intrusive 20x larger than the Camp Zone intrusive.

The MAC  Property’s  2nd deposit type is Nickel-Iron (Ni-Fe) alloy (awaruite) hosted in the SAME serpentinized ultramafic rocks as FPX Nickel’s Baptiste/ Decar Nickel deposit.

Here is some brief history;

In 2012, highly anomalous levels of ultramafic rocks hosting visual awaruite nickel and chrome were discovered on the MAC Property across a substantial strike length.

In 2021, nickel-bearing zones spanning across the property along a northwest-trending magnetic feature in ultramafic rocks covering an area of approximately 5800 ha (14,332 acres) and a strike length of over 16 km. Rock samples returned values up to 0.37% Nickel, 0.32% Chromium, and 150 ppm Cobalt with 138 of the 177 samples returning over 0.1% Nickel and 123 of the 177 samples returning over 0.1% Chromium.

In August 2023 of 57 rock samples collected on the MAC Nickel claims, nineteen (19) returned assays above 2000 ppm (0.2% Ni), with a high of 2600 ppm (0.26%). Another sample recorded 26.3% Magnesium, while 18 others recorded levels greater than >23% Mg. All samples exceeding a 2000 ppm (0.2%) Ni threshold also displayed anomalous levels of Cobalt to 140 ppm (0.014%), and Chrome to 2211 ppm (0.221%), which reinforces the potential for multi-element mineral deposits.

In August 2024 two small MMI (Mobile Metal Ion) grids were sampled on the southern MAC Nickel Claims. Although the results are still being analyzed, significant Nickel, Magnesium, Cobalt, Molybdenum & Copper results have been obtained - 2024 MMI Results Link, Also see Reports

The 7494.34 hectare MAC Property is a world-class exploration opportunity, hosting both a significant Mo/Cu porphyry deposit and a contiguous block of ultramafic rocks with identical geology to FPX Nickel’s Decar Property to the east (highlighted in magenta). This property features the Baptiste Nickel Deposit, renowned as one of Canada’s largest nickel resources, and is currently advancing toward becoming a major critical-metals mining operation. Geochemical soil, rock, and MMI results on the MAC Property have identified compelling drill targets, setting the stage for the next major nickel discovery.

ENVISION THIS 21st CENTURY SCENARIO…

Two major critical minerals mines operating hand-in-hand with a state-of-the-art carbon capture and storage facility, all situated within the bounds of a single contiguous property. Together, they create a combined carbon-neutral emissions footprint, fully supported by a unified infrastructure. BC Mining Properties firmly believes that such possibilities are not only conceivable but achievable within the realm of the MAC Property.

MAY & JENNIE

High-Grade Gold Deposit - Located on 2 Mineral Leases

Despite an Indicated Resource of 80,000 tonnes @ 8.57 gpt Au (21,094 oz) blocked out in the late 1800s, the deposit was never mined. In 1986 Player Resources exposed mineralization at surface for 345m. 

In 2018, BC Mining Properties exposed mineralization on the May & Jennie mineral leases for approximately 600m at surface where it remains open in three directions.

Underground, mineralization varies from 1.52m to 7.32m wide for an average width of 4.25m and depth of at least 71.6m according to historical reports.

The May & Jennie gold mineralization has always been interpreted as a vein deposit.  BC Mining Properties believes that the May & Jennie mineralization may be part of a stratabound deposit pushed into multiple vertical folds, spaced approximately 80m apart.  If this holds, it sets the stage for the possibility of a much larger deposit than would otherwise be the case.

Assuming the mineralization averages a 1-meter width, to a depth of 200m, the existing resources will exceed 106,000 ounces of gold. At 4m width (which is less than the average width according to historical reports) the numbers equate to approximately 424,000 ounces of gold at 10 gpt Au.  

The property is permitted through the 2024 Mining Season for drilling and trenching along with the removal of up to 925 tonnes. Approximately 75 tonnes have been removed to date averaging more than an estimated 10 gpt Au +/- with a single pass of grinding and processing through a Falcon 400 concentrator with approximately 50% recovery. Much of May & Jennie’s gold is retained in black sand (magnetite) which was not processed or smelted.  A one-gallon pail of this black sand assayed 256 gpt (8.23 opt) Au. 

The Red Top is an important 2nd wave (possible fold) of mineralization comprised of a low-grade structure located above the May & Jennie and has been interpreted to extend > 44m +/- wide. Depth is undetermined because of poor exposure and limited work. If the structure strikes as interpreted from a 1984 VLF geophysical survey, and extends to 200m in depth, the area could easily double the current May & Jennie gold resource.

A recent assay taken from the Upper Red Top returned 5.373 gpt Au, 927 ppm W, 301 ppm Co, 29.82% Fe, 17ppm Bi.  A second assay from the same 631-gram sample returned 1.879 ppm Au indicating the presence of nugget-effected free gold. The VLF geophysical survey seen on the next page, also indicates the possibility the structure may be of significant size.

BONAPARTE

Copper Porphyry - Gold Prospect

Bonaparte Mine Portal - Circa 2015

BC Mining Properties is focused on two deposit types within the Bonaparte Property

The 1st is Copper-Gold (Cu-Au) Porphyry.

BC Mining Properties believes the potential of Bonaparte may never be fully realized until it can be explored for its Cu-Au porphyry potential through drilling.

Initial sampling and analysis indicate copper in higher grades and proportions than typically discussed in historical reports. The theory is the copper and gold seen in the upper diorite quartz system had to come from somewhere and may be part of a secondary dispersion from a large high-grade porphyry system seen at depth in geophysics before being emplaced alongside and atop to form the younger Discovery Zone.

This is supported by compelling geophysical data indicating more than one intrusive body at depth with a large overlapping area of high chargeability and low resistivity situated 1 km South.

The thinking behind the Discovery Zone & Cooler Creek Trend…

Faults or fractures could serve as pathways for hydrothermal fluids, which can transport and deposit metals such as copper and gold. The mineralization and geochemical anomalies may indicate that such structures are extensions of a buried porphyry system located partially under an overlying basalt cap.

**Hidden Extensions: ** The geophysical anomalies (low resistivity and high chargeability) near the basalt cap might represent a porphyry copper system's core or main body. The geochemical anomalies in the NE (Discovery Zone and the Cooler Creek Trend) could be the distal expression of this system, where mineralization has been remobilized along structural features extending out from the main deposit (i.e. Cooler Creek and the Discovery Zone.

Geophysical data indicates the larger southerly body begins near the surface and gradually increases in size to approximately 3 km wide x 2 km length at approximately 275m depth then gradually decreases in size to a depth of 500m, which is the extent of the data.

The 2nd deposit type is Shear-Hosted Gold (Au) in Quartz Veins.

To date, Bonaparte’s Discovery Zone has only been explored for high-grade gold resulting in two bulk sample programs intended to effectively high-grade gold from 8 quartz veins near the surface. Approximately 103 kg of gold has been recovered from 4064 tonnes milled (25.58 g/t Au). Many anomalous zones and features for Discovery Zone style gold vein targets extending south and east and underlying historical geochemical and geophysical results completed in 2013/14, all remain unexplored. In 2015, the first drill hole drilled outside of the Discovery Zone intersected a 1.0m interval of 7.88 gpt/Au and has also never been followed up with additional drilling. This newly discovered vein (#9) and intersection attest to the potential of discovering additional gold-bearing quartz veins along the Cooler Creek trend. Most of the historic drilling never extended much below 55m depth.
