The Harmon Peak Project covers an extensive strike along the key unconformity between the Upper Triassic Takla Group and the Early Jurassic Lower Hazelton Toodoggone Group, highlighting exposure at the favorable exhumation level for porphyry systems. The property is underlain by lower Hazelton volcanics, which are intruded by the Black Lake Intrusive Suite, the intrusive body regionally associated with porphyry mineralization. This geological setting is analogous to several nearby discoveries and hosts alteration and mineralization styles consistent with both porphyry and epithermal systems.
Geochemistry: RGS surveys returned 355 ppm Cu, along with some of the strongest Ag stream sediment anomalies in the area (1,409 ppb and 932 ppb Ag). Additional RGS results include Mo up to 47 ppm, Zn up to 616 ppm, and Pb up to 47 ppm, confirming a strong geochemical footprint.
Cove Energy (1986–88): Conducted airborne mag-VLF surveys and collected 116 rock samples and 266 soils/silts, identifying alteration assemblages of illite, chlorite, epidote, and magnetite — indicative of hydrothermal systems. Sample highlights near the property include 1.79% Cu, 42.2 ppm Ag, and 2.4 ppm Au.
Stealth Minerals (2005): Follow-up work documented copper and gold mineralization within the NW Lake Zone. Highlights include:
>1.0% Cu, 0.965 ppm Au (#192882)
0.58% Cu, 0.252 ppm Au (#192883)
Numerous other samples with >0.1% Cu and anomalous gold values (see AR27635 for details).
TDG Gold Corp. (2022): Precision Geophysics completed airborne magnetics and radiometrics over the NW portion of the project. The data outlined compelling magnetic lows rimmed by highs coincident with Stealth’s copper-gold samples and epithermal occurrences, defining a clear exploration target.
