Properties: Valentine Property
Property Description
Valentine property is composed of four 16 unit claims with a total surface of 1,024 ha. All claims lie within the limits of Valentine Township.
The Valentine property was acquired mainly for its copper and REE potential. In fact those mineralizations are similar to the Palabora deposit in South Africa, which is the largest South-African refined copper producer.
Accessibility
The Valentine property is considered remote. Helicopter access is best suited for exploration on this property.
Exploration Program and Results
During the quarter ended April 30, 2004, the Corporation began a property wide till sampling program. This systematic sampling program is based on past BRDC sampling where both copper and kimberlite indicator anomalies were identified. The Corporation completed an airborne geophysical. The airborne geophysical survey identified a number of interesting anomalies which the Corporation is planning on testing soon.
Exploration Results
BRDC's new till-sampling methods using an All-Terrain Vehicle-mounted small bore mechanical auger and diamond drills will be used to test the interesting geophysical and geochemical anomalies.
To date more than 200 samples have been collected and sent to the CF Minerals laboratories for analysis. Study of the abundant, high quality Kimberlite indicator minerals found in the samples has lead to the formation of numerous mineral fans which have become the focus of current sampling efforts.
