Wallbridge Mining Discovers Porphyry Gold-Copper Mineralization on BC Property

Wallbridge Mining Company Limited has discovered mineralization within three target areas on their Rogers Creek copper-gold-molybdenum property, in south-western British Columbia approximately 40 kilometres south of Pemberton. The first two targets are defined within a 6 by 2 kilometre area of alteration and gold-copper mineralization with samples in quartz-sulphide veins returning up to 23.1 grams per tonne gold and 232 grams per tonne silver. The third target is defined by silt samples returning highly anomalous gold and silver values up to 2.3 grams per tonne gold and 436 ppb silver. The style of mineralization and alteration is consistent with a porphyry copper-gold-molybdenum system. read more
