Current surface mapping in-progress by Manning has identified geologic controls for copper-bearing skarn mineralization, zoning of the skarn mineralization, and alteration veining in the Jurassic Granodiorite and Feldspar Porphyry.
The recent gravity survey identified strong indicators for copper in skarn that would be expected around a porphyry copper deposit, previously unrecognized fault trends, and geology that is favorable for copper target zones beneath post-mineral volcanic rocks that has never been drill tested.
Recent soil geochemical results correspond with known copper mineralization, skarn zoning, and trends that highlight the skarn/geology mapping correlations. In addition, it corresponds with skarn zoning and gravity indications of skarn, and correlates/aligns with gravity-based fault trends. U.S. Geological Survey Magnetic data is sufficiently detailed to highlight several trends in the Project ground magnetic data.

Historically at Copper Hill, reported high-grade copper was mined from underground shafts from skarn and porphyry-copper styled mineralization at the
*Historic Mining information was summarized from an “Unpublished Report on the Carson Sink Area,
The Copper Hill mineralizing system forms atopographic high surrounded and partially covered by younger volcanic rocks. Mineralization identified at Copper Hill are bornite, chalcocite, chalcopyrite, chrysocolla, copper-native, covellite, cuprite, gold, malachite, molybdenite, silver, sphalerite (rare), and tetrahedrite.
Rock sampling collected at this time returned values from select samples of 7.2% and 12.7% copper and 1.06 g/t gold and 1.19 g/t gold respectively.
The target being sought at Copper Hill is a porphyry styled copper-molybdenum-gold deposit.
