Green River Gold (CCR) has provided an update regarding the mineralogy of Talc Alteration on Zone 1 of the Quesnel Nickel project.

The project is just outside Quesnel, British Columbia, in the prolific Cariboo Mining District. Zone 1 is an outcrop covering an area of about 1.5 square kilometres of the 14 linear kilometres of Deep Purple magnetic anomaly.

The Zone 1 drill program confirmed the presence of an area of intense talc alteration. It identified the presence of anomalous amounts of nickel, chromium and magnesium along with talc. The particular area that was targeted with the drilling was the subject of an exploration program designed to assess the potential for a commercial talc deposit in the 1980s.

Perry Little, President and CEO of Green River Gold, sat down with Daniella Atkinson to discuss the results.

“We are pleased to see the high percentage of talc content and the early indication that asbestos content will not be an issue. The nickel grades, while not as high as we have encountered in Zone 2, present an interesting possibility to develop an operation on Zone 1 that could produce both nickel and talc. While this combination is rare, it would not be a totally unique operation.”

Green River Gold (CCR) is a Canadian mineral exploration company focused on its Fontaine Gold project, Quesnel Nickel project, and Kymar Silver project, which are located in renowned mining districts in British Columbia.

Green River Gold (CCR) opened trading at C$0.08.
