About Eureka
Gemini Lithium Project
Eureka owns a 50% participating interest in the Gemini lithium
brine project ("Gemini"), located in the western Lida Valley, located in Esmeralda County in south central Nevada, approximately 40 kilometres (26 miles)
from North America's only
producing lithium mine at Silver Peak. Gemini currently consists of
247 placer claims totaling 4,940 acres (2,000 hectares).
Gemini is located in a flat, desert basin hosting two interpreted
sub-basins and with a similar geological setting to the Clayton
Valley. Recent geophysical work at Gemini has outlined conductive
zones interpreted as brine horizons, which the Company plans to
test by drilling.
In August 2016, Nevada Sunrise
Gold Corporation ("Nevada Sunrise") granted Advantage Lithium Corp.
(TSXV: AAL, "Advantage") an option for Advantage to earn a 50%
interest in Gemini as part of a transaction involving 5 lithium
properties, including Gemini. Upon exercise of the option earn-in
by Advantage, Nevada Sunrise would relinquish its 50% interest in
Gemini, and retain a 2% gross overriding royalty in the Nevada
Sunrise interest in the Project. On September 21, 2016 Eureka signed a 50-50
definitive joint venture agreement with Nevada Sunrise on
Gemini.
FG Project
Eureka has held the FG Property (formerly called Frasergold)
since 1982. To date, over $15.0
million of exploratory work has been completed by the
Company, ASARCO, AMOCO and Hawthorne Gold Corp. The historical
exploration has established a Measured and Indicated (376,000
ounces) gold resource at an average grade of 0.776 g/t gold, using
a cut-off grade of 0.5 g/t, and an Inferred gold resource (634,900
ounces) at an average grade of 0.718 g/t gold, using a cut-off
grade of 0.5 g/t. Mineralization has been outlined over a strike
length of 3 kilometres, and has the potential for additional
mineralization that could extend along an interpreted strike length
of over 10 kilometres. Details of the gold resource can be found in
"NI 43-101 Technical Report, Frasergold Exploration Project,
Cariboo Mining Division, dated July 27,
2015" available on SEDAR or at the Company's website. The
Company recently granted an option to Canarc Resource Corp (TSX
CCM). ("Canarc") which provides Canarc the ability to earn a 75%
interest in the project.
