![]() | ![]() A series of greater than 200 ppb copper anomalies extends 2,438 metres west of the Buzzer. Fragments of mineralized granitic rock similar to that at the Buzzer zone are found in the Buzzer West area, 1,579 metres southwest of the Buzzer zone. Similar Buzzer look-alike fragments were found on the west side of the copper soil anomalies. The copper soil anomalies are not continuous, which could be due to a cover of glacial drift and talus, deep overburden in some places or lack of continuity in the copper-molybdenum mineralization. No hole has been drilled west of the Buzzer zone. This is a very large area which is completely untested with the exception of the Buzzer zone. This will be drill-tested in 2008. Conclusion It is the opinion of management that the Taseko Property could cover a mineral deposit(s) of significant dimensions. The Empress deposit was discovered by Great Quest in 1988 through 1991. Several prospective areas remain to be explored for the discovery of additional reserves. The source of high grade copper-gold fragments on the southwestern part of the Empress deposit has not yet been found. The occurrence of molybdenum and copper north of the Empress deposit has not been outlined to date. Neither the Buzzer West zone nor the area underlain by the copper soil anomalies west of the Buzzer zone has been drilled. The goal of the 2008 drill program is to test these areas. The potential is high for adding to the current mineral resources. Willis W. Osborne ( M. Sc. Geol.) President Maps | ||||||||||||||||
