RE:Very Rich Stockpiles at Betts Cove mineSee Below
If you do the calculations, those surface stockpiles from historical mining of copper at Betts Cove are worth about $3500 CAD per ton in gold and copper content per ton.
I dont know how many tons of these stockpiles exist but even 5000 tons would be worth over $17 million CAD.
As far as I know , Signal still owns its Tilt Cove assets including Betts Cove but of course cannot monetize these stockpiles because it lacks a mill
to process the ore.
Pine Cove can produce a copper-Gold concentrate .
Betts Cove is just few kms from the Nuggett Pond mill ..
Sampling of surface stockpiles from previous mining have retuned high gold values and base metals values up to 9.99 g/t gold, 18.3% copper and 1.7% zinc.
