GOOD BARKERVILLE AREA PROGRAM $349,000 - cash in hand -
Hawkeye Gold & Diamond Inc.
has commenced a multiphased work program over its...
2-Aces,
Seller Creek,
Cariboo Valley,
Cariboo Lake,
Keithley Creek
Swift River
properties that are strategically located in the prolific Barkerville gold camp. Hawkeye engaged a geophysics consulting firm to perform an interpretation and inversion 3D analysis for the 2018 airborne geophysical survey that the Company had flown over the Properties by Geotech Ltd. As a result of the analysis several new targets were identified for exploration follow-up by our crew.
The exploration program over the Properties will include traditional mapping and prospecting of outcrops using both trail access and helicopters, complimented with a regional stream sediment sampling program to identify sources of precious and base metal occurrences within catchment areas.
The team is also equipped with an XRF mobile lab which will provide vital information regarding pathfinder elements which will allow the program to be adapted "on the fly", thus ensuring efficient use of field time. A drone is also being used to collect high resolution imagery of sites to support structural and geological interpretation work post-season.
Hawkeye's Barkerville Properties are either contiguous or in close proximity to the southern boundary of the Osisko Development's Cariboo Gold Project. Osisko Development recently announced a measured and indicated resource of 3.2 million ounces gold at 4.6 g/t and an inferred resource of 2.7 million ounces of gold at 3.9 g/t for their project. Hawkeye's Properties are situated approximately 35 kilometres south-southeast of the Town of Barkerville, BC, Canada.

KInd of partia lto this Barkerville region.
Lots of gold has been found over the years.
Hawkeye using an - XRF - in the field - real smart -
wll be ble to see realtime analysis and kno where to spend valuable time.
Hawkeyes - Keithely Creek looks interesting ,
Close proximity to Karus' Gold Creek Claims. https://www.karusgold.com/_resources/images/cariboo-gold-district-property-map-tn.jpg Karus' Gold Creek - stats show some nice intercepts with good gold gram values - contigous to Spanish Mountain Gold - 2 - 5 million ounces -
while Kiethley Creek is approx 5km north of Gold Creek.
Could potentially be tied to same system. https://www.karusgold.com/projects/gold-creek/ I would think,
having the 2018 survey reworked with a 3D inversion is good, but...
i would think if they go into this Barker area with a mind set of,
placer gold conglomerate and sands at surface looking for those distinct depoists that are parked along side of a range - from older watersheds could make for an easy discovery - on some satelite maps - such as cariboo lake - there's a ton of sands along its lower range banks - can't help but think of older placer possibilities - and of course - looking for those hardrock gold clues with exposed veining at surfsce.
Having this XRF in field - i would hope they'll look at all minerals possibilities
Copper, and Graphites, Cobalt
Even as much as carbonate salt depoists.
Many dismiss such salts but....
There an energy reactor secotor that goes far beyond uranium,
most don't think of - salt reactors, and calcium could be a good contenderr someday for such molten reactors.
This Easter nCordillera is also known for REE's.
Who knows, just maybe Hawkeye will have the right XRK modle that cna pick up on REE's.
If they do come across placer sands parked aside a range -
i wonder if they have a plastic 3" rod that could take some 2m placer sand samples and pan it on site - looking for the infamous nugety gold.
