Exciting High-Grade Copper Findings from GoldHaven Resources
GoldHaven Resources Corp. is thrilled to report breakthrough assay results from its Three Guardsmen property, which have confirmed the existence of high-grade copper mineralization on its fully owned land in an area known for its geological promise.
Key Highlights of the Findings
The latest exploration revealed remarkable results:
- From 126 surface rock samples, 25 exceeded a remarkable 10,000 ppm (1% Cu).
- Among these were high-grade grab samples, notably:
- Sample J647161 with an impressive 15.85% Cu.
- Sample J647629 at 12.75% Cu.
- Sample J647753 at 12.65% Cu.
(Note: Sample grades are not indicative of expected overall grades)
- The mineralization occurs in epidote–magnetite skarns with extensive malachite staining observable over more than 1 km of strike.
- Porphyritic intrusive textures have been noted at low elevations in the valley bottom, suggesting a potential intrusive source for the skarn mineralization.
- Geochemical gradients across the property (Cu–Ag ? Bi–Te–Au ? Mo) may indicate proximity to an intrusive heat source underlying the skarn system.
Exploring the Potential of the Three Guardsmen Project
The Three Guardsmen property consists of 14 mineral tenures totaling 16,234 hectares within the Atlin Mining Division, making it a significant asset for GoldHaven Resources Corp. This project is strategically positioned in a geologically appealing region noted for its copper-magnetite skarn formations interspersed with gold and molybdenum mineralization. The transitions from copper and silver-rich zones to areas hosting bismuth, tellurium, and gold alongside molybdenum are encouraging signs of a possible nearby porphyry system.
For the 2025 field program, the focus was on corroborating historic high-grade copper samples at various locations, leading to new discoveries that included astonishing findings like the 15.85% Cu sample. Among the 126 samples analyzed, 25 returned assays confirming significant copper mineralization across the property.
Geological Insights and Future Directions
The Canadian Verdee area showcases high-grade copper within local pods, where bornite and chalcocite are prevalent. These mineralized sections extend into broader epidote-dominant skarn featuring magnetite-chalcopyrite mineralization characterized by widespread malachite staining. The extent of these mineralized formations stretches over 1 km, underscoring the impressive scale and potential of this resource.
Distinct geological features and systematic geochemical transitions point towards the presence of an active porphyry intrusion, enhancing the overall exploration potential of the Three Guardsmen Project. GoldHaven Resources intends to execute focused geochemical studies, interpret structural maps, and utilize geophysical methods to locate additional mineralized granitic intrusive centers.
Comments from Leadership
Rob Birmingham, CEO of GoldHaven Resources, expressed enthusiasm regarding these assay results stating, “These findings represent a pivotal achievement for GoldHaven. The discovery of surface copper grades reaching up to 15.85% paired with the widespread high-grade mineralization highlights the project's robust potential. With evidence pointing towards a nearby porphyry source, we are excited about the opportunities that lie ahead as we expand our exploration efforts.”
