As the recently appointed President of Klondike Gold Corp. I am pleased to lead a team dedicated to adding shareholder value by advancing our various mineral properties towards "advanced exploration status" and hopefully, the development of a sustainable mining project. Our main focus during the 2012 exploration season is on our extensive land holdings in the Klondike region of Yukon Territory. We have announced a take-over bid for the shares of Klondike Star Mineral Corporation and if successful we will have consolidated one of the largest and most prospective land packages in Yukon Territory. In addition to our extensive holdings in the Klondike, the company has a large portfolio of projects in southeastern British Columbia. These projects were acquired by our predecessor management and, in our opinion, represent some of the more prospective exploration projects in British Columbia.
The primary area of interest for your company will be Yukon Territory where our focus will be exploration and discovery of large, bulk tonnage gold deposits. As you are probably aware, our road accessible, core holdings (approximately 200 sq. km. post take-over) encompass 5 separate projects located immediately to the southeast of Dawson City and cover a large portion of what was the core of the Klondike Gold Rush of the late 1800's. We have the largest package of ground of any public company covering this favorable geology.
Over the past several years the Yukon has experienced a resurgence in mineral exploration. In the past two years, over 200,000 new hard rock claims have been staked. During this same period approximately $450 million was spent on exploration that included over 700,000 meters of drilling. These figures point to a new Yukon gold rush. Despite this, Klondike Gold Corp. had been inactive on the Lone Star property since 2007 primarily because of funding and other issues with our previous partner who held operating rights to our property. These issues have now been resolved. With new management and with new sources of funding we are fully committed to maximizing the value of the Lone Star Project, one of the core holdings in our portfolio.
On the exploration side our intention is to benefit from the considerable ongoing research by various universities (including University of British Columbia, University of Leeds in England and Otago University in New Zealand) that has been directed towards the genesis of the gold found in the Klondike placer mines. Recent advances in trace element geochemistry may assist us in identifying schist rocks more favorable for hosting primary gold mineralization. In addition, our exploration team is compiling all historic property data and preparing for a program of systematic mapping and geochemical sampling covering the entire Lone Star property (133 sq. km.). All of this is in preparation for a field program that has commenced.
While we are emphasizing our opportunity in the Klondike we also have an extensive portfolio of projects in southern British Columbia. A number of our gold projects are close to or formerly part of gold producing areas. In addition, near the town of Kimberly we have a number of properties prospective for "SEDEX" style polymetallic mineralization. These projects are located in the same geological package (and time frame) as the famous past producing Sullivan Mine previously operated by Cominco Ltd. (now Teck Resources Ltd.). The Sullivan Mine was one of the worlds largest and most continuous producers of zinc, lead and silver and had a mine life of ~100 years during which it produced greater than $40 billion of metal value. With this extensive portfolio of projects Klondike Gold Corp. is positioned to enter into option or joint-venture arrangements that will optimize the value of our base metal holdings and allow us to focus on our core properties and commodity, gold!
Our message to shareholders is that Klondike Gold Corp. is adequately funded for a very active and productive year not only in Yukon Territory but we also expect to add value to your Company through the development and exploration of our projects in southern British Columbia.
As your newly installed President, I thank you. | |
