- 70 mineral claims totaling 13,950 hectares with Cu-Au porphyry, orogenic and skarn mineralization.
- Access – 16km NW of Little Fort, BC. 100km north of Kamloops, BC along Highway 5. Property can be accessed from several logging roads off Highway 24 which runs along southern property boundary.
- Project situated in productive alkalic copper-gold porphyry belt within the Quesnel Trough; nearby mines and development projects include Mt. Polley, New Afton and Lac La Hache.
- Since 1965 several companies have completed exploration work consisting of soil and rock geochemical surveys, prospecting, airborne and ground geophysics (magnetics, VLF-EM and IP), trenching along with limited percussion and diamond drilling.
- The property surrounds Altius Minerals’ Gibson project, and may contain on-strike extensions of Au-Ag bearing structures reported in 2018 results.
- The Eagle Cu-Au Project comprises 1921 hectares located midway between the Mt. Milligan Mine and the Kwanika Cu-Au deposit.
- Mt. Milligan has 5.7 M oz Au and 2.2 B pounds Cu in PP reserves.
- Kwanika has an Indicated Pit Constrained Resource of 101 Mt of 0.31% Cu and 0.32 g/t Au
