Soviele neue Minen. Fehlen nur noch die Burger King Mines.

Ich möchte aber lieber eine Kentucky-flied-Chicken-Mine! Starbucks Resources würde ich aber links liegen lassen...
Ich musste tatsächlich auch erst über den Namen schmunzeln, aber nach genauerer Betrachtung gefällt sie mir sogar sehr gut. Die hatten letztes Jahr ein sensationelles Bohrergebnis:
- 52.02 g/t gold over 12.3 metres, including 210.23 g/t gold over 3 metres,
- 5.73 g/t gold over 5.5 metres, including 17.17 g/t gold over 1.5 metres and;
- 11.12 g/t gold over 7.3 metres including 77.16 g/t gold over 1 metre.
Darauf ist sogar Sprott eingestiegen, der hält:
| 18 750 000 | 10,9% |
Eine der ganz wenigen Gesellschaften, bei der der Kurs trotz des Einstiegs in 2020 noch exakt auf der Höhe des PP liegt. Im Juli gab es jetzt noch mal ein komplett überzeichnetes Private Placement, aus dem man sich weitere 4 Mio CAD geholt hat - auf Höhe des aktuellen Kurses.

Damit wird unter anderen ein neues Drilling-Program über starke 14000 Meter finanziert, für welches wir bis spätestens Anfang Oktober Ergebnisse bekommen werden - wurde erst letzte Woche so vom CEO angekündigt. Das Ganze gibt es gelegen in Ontario für nicht mal 20 Mio CAD, scheint mal ein wirklich eifriges Team zu sein. Gibt auch ständig Updates, das ist man in dieser Größenordnung nicht gewöhnt. Kann zunächst als Open Pit Mine betrieben werden, komplette Straßeanbindung so gut wie vorhanden, nur 6 Meilen zum Highway. Gefällt mir äußerst gut muss ich sagen.
Hier der Ausschnitt aus dem Artikel Top 20 of 2020 Explorer, den hatte ich bereits in den Explorer-Thread:

MacDonald Mines Exploration Ltd. is a Canadian precious metals explorer based in Toronto, Ontario and are primarily involved in the identification, acquisition and development of properties in Canada. Led by an experienced management and technical team, the company has built a portfolio of safe-jurisdiction, infrastructure-rich projects that demonstrate a good market potential for return. MacDonald is focused on advancing development at its SPJ Project, located approximately 40kms East of Sudbury, Ontario. The Company’s current exploration program is focused on extending known showings and discovering new gold-cobalt-copper-nickel-silver mineralized zones in this under-explored polymetallic district around the past producing Scadding mine.
Macdonald Mines opted to acquire the Scadding mine property in April of last year, after encouraging results from their exploration efforts on the Jovan and Powerline properties in 2018. Channel and grab samples on the Powerline and Jovan, uncovered several zones of variably brecciated and mineralized albitites, that are similar to those found at the historic Scadding and Norstar mines. These zones are typically associated with polymetallic gold mineralization, and have been classified as a modified Iron Oxide Copper Gold system (“IOCG”)
Highlights from channel samples on Jovan and Powerline showings:
- High-grade cobalt-copper-gold mineralization at the Jovan Property:
- 4.31% copper, 4.42 g/t gold, 0.011% cobalt, 11.15 g/t silver and 0.013% Ni (11.5 g/t AuEq) over 3.6 metres;
- 3.44% cobalt, 3.81 g/t gold, 0.14% nickel, 0.59 % copper, and 3.79 g/t silver (53.26 g/t AuEq) over 1.5 metres;
- Extensive zone of anomalous cobalt-gold-nickel mineralization at the Powerline Property:
- 0.25 g/t gold, 0.011% cobalt and 0.027% nickel (0.49 g/t AuEq) over 13 metres
- 0.23 g/t gold, 0.008% cobalt and 0.019% nickel (0.39 g/t AuEq) over 18 metres
- 0.009% cobalt and 0.022% nickel (0.014% CoEq) over 22 metres
Immediately after they acquired the property they went to work exploring and sampling the claims. They were encouraged enough to stake 14 more claims and purchase an additional 130 claims to build out their land package. All the new claims are contiguous to MacDonald’s property and cover prospective extensions of the potential IOCG system that they have identified in and around the Scadding Mine property.
Historically, The Scadding mine produced 914 kilograms of gold from 127,000 tonnes of ore grading 7.2 g/t. Macdonald Mine’s Geological team has reviewed the data of previous operators’ drilling campaigns and feel that significant gold structures may have been missed. After reviewing all the historical data and gaining a better understanding of the structural controls, Their team set out to drill under a new geological model formulated on their research.
The first reported hole hit very impressive grades and it sent the stock running and eventually stalled around .20 cents. The company garnered even more interest when Eric Sprott jumped on board and invested 1.5 million dollars to help the company get the project rolling and offer a boost of confidence. Since this announcement the stock has come back down a bit and settled offering investors an opportunity to get involved as the company continues to define the structures driving the gold mineralization. Here are the results that kicked off the rush…
Highlights from hole SM-2019-001 include:
- 52.02 g/t gold over 12.3 metres, including 210.23 g/t gold over 3 metres,
- 5.73 g/t gold over 5.5 metres, including 17.17 g/t gold over 1.5 metres and;
- 11.12 g/t gold over 7.3 metres including 77.16 g/t gold over 1 metre.
“These results exceed our expectations. They highlight the Iron-Oxide-Copper-Gold “(“IOCG”) potential of the Scadding Deposit and confirm that the deposit hosts significant and stacked zones of high-grade gold mineralization. These gold-rich zones also appear to be wider than suggested by historic drilling. Now that we have our exploration permit in hand, we’ll be able to advance our exploration activities and drilling on the property and further expand the footprint of the Scadding Deposit.”
Quentin Yarie, MacDonald’s President and CEO
They have now expanded their drilling campaign to 7,500m from the initially planned 2,000m and continue to hit mineralization, not only in the drill cores but they have also identified several new outcrops and have been sampling them with great success. Here are the remaining holes that have been reported…
- 8.56 g/t gold over 7.63 metres, including 14.04 g/t gold over 4.21 meters
- 3.21/t gold over 15.29 metres, including 23.15 g/t gold over 0.87 metres.
- 11.10 g/t gold over 6.14 metres and 3.29 g/t gold over 1.8 metres.
- 5.15 g/t gold over 3 metres, 9.02g/t gold over 1.98 metres and 3.03 g/t gold over 1.37 metres
- 7.75 g/t gold over 1.44 metres, 21.66 g/t gold over 1.64 metres and 8.1 g/t gold over 1.9 metres
- 7.99 g/t gold over 26.2 metres including 10.98 g/t over 4.98 metres and 11.54 g/t over 13.24 metres
The company has several holes pending as we head into the New Year and if the trend continues, they should continue to have good results. Before the snow came they were able to do some channel sampling on the newly exposed Villeneuve showing and most recently announced that they had found visible gold in the channel samples and came back with grades of 81.72 g/t gold and 0.065% cobalt over 2m including 147.8 g/t gold and 0.1% cobalt over 1m in the center of the Villeneuve Structure.

As you can see, there is a lot to like about this project and it’s one we look forward to reporting on in the New Year. The company recently announced that they will be doing IP surveys on the property and we would expect to see those in the new year. The company has also been very active in exploring beyond the Scadding property and have been coming up with decent copper, cobalt and nickel grades with some more modest gold and silver grades at Jovan 7kms away.
“Our regional exploration program on the SPJ property continues to expand the footprint of the mineralized system and indicates that polymetallic mineralization extends at least 7 km east of the Scadding Deposit. Our exploration results also suggest that high-grade gold-cobalt-copper-nickel mineralization that was sampled at the Brady Showing occurs in many other locations on the property. Overall our 2018 and 2019 exploration programs suggest that the SPJ property has the potential to host an Iron-Oxide-Copper-Gold system.”
