Overview
Located in Washington State, the Great Excelsior Mines present drill indicated gold-silver resource is 493,298 equivalent ounces of gold.
The Great Excelsior Mine was a former gold-silver producer which was forced to close in 1918 due to falling metal prices and a shortage of supplies. Excelsior Gold Corporation recently acquired 30 lode mining claims covering the drilled resource.
In 1987 Steelhead Resources commissioned American Mine Services, Inc. (AMS), to calculate the global geologic reserves and stripping ratio for the deposit. This calculation was done using geostatistical methods and based on the assay results from 45 core holes drilled by US Borax, Corp. AMS concluded that the project could be mined using a 3:1 stripping ratio. The results of this study are presented in Table 1.
