The current mineral resource estimate and recent metallurgical test work have highlighted multiple priority targets for further resource expansion and definition, the company has said. Stakeholder Gold Corp. [SRC-TSXV] owns a 100% interest in the Ballarat gold project which is located in the heart of the White Gold District 120 km southeast of Dawson City. The project covers more than 7,000 hectares of ground located north of Newmont Goldcorp's Coffee Project. Stakeholder completed a Phase 1 explo - ration program on the Ballarat property in 2016. The program consisted of soil sampling, rock sampling, and DC IP/resistivity testing. Results significantly enlarged the Eastern Zone target area. Two float rock samples yielded values of 0.759 g/t and 0.587 g/t gold. A grab sample from a trench at the Northwest Zone ran 1.492 g/t gold. Triumph Gold Corp. [TIG-TSXV] recently delineated gold- rich porphyry-style mineralization in the Blue Sky Zone on its 100%-owned Freegold Mountain property located 70 km north - west of Carmacks. Highlights from drilling include 125.13 metres of 1.24 g/t gold, 7.0 g/t silver, 0.31% copper and 0.01% molyb- denum contained within 201.10 metres of 0.87 g/t gold, 5.8 g/t silver, 0.26% copper and 0.01% molybdenum in hole RVD18-17. Drilling at the Blue Sky Zone has returned the longest +1% CuEq porphyry intersection ever drilled in the Yukon: 316 metres grad- ing 1.1 g/t gold, 5.0 g/t silver, and 0.27% copper. The 34-km long Freegold Mountain property is located in the Dawson Range gold-copper belt and hosts three NI 43-101 com- pliant mineral deposits with resource estimates – the Nucleus, Revenue and Tinta. The area also hosts Western Copper and Gold's Casino Project as well as Newmont Goldcorp's Coffee deposit. Newmont Goldcorp holds a 19.9% stake in Triumph. Since 2016, Triumph Gold's exploration has been focused on the 6-km-long intense multi-element soil and geological anomaly that encompasses the Revenue and Nucleus deposit areas. Within the anomaly, the Blue Sky Zone covers a broad area extending 2.3 km east of Revenue to the eastern margin of the anomaly. Triumph Gold also has a 100% interest in the Tad/Toro gold-bearing porphyry prospect along the Big Creek fault. This property is available for option. Victoria Gold Corp. [VIT-TSXV] is nearing completion of con - struction of its Eagle gold mine located in central Yukon, 375 km north of Whitehorse and 85 km north of Mayo. The mine is part of the larger Dublin Gulch Project and is expected to rank as the largest hardrock mine in the Yukon's history, producing 200,000 ounces of gold annually at an operating cost of approximately US $550 per ounce using heap leach processing methods. Full con - struction commenced on March 15, 2018, with completion and first gold pour scheduled for September, one month ahead of previous estimate. Refer to Victoria Gold article in Resource World June/July, page 51. Western Copper & Gold Corp. [WRN-TSX, NYSE American] recently commenced a 10,000-metre drill program at its advanced 100%-owned Casino copper-gold project. The drill campaign primarily consists of in-fill drilling of inferred mineralization located in the 22-year pit outlined by the January 25, 2013 proj - ect Feasibility Study. Drilling is being performed by two rigs, and consists of holes drilled to depths of between 100 metres and 400 metres. The goal is to upgrade inferred mineralization into the indicated mineralization category. Casino is one of the largest, economic, copper-gold deposits located in one of the most mining friendly jurisdictions in the world, the company has said. White Gold Corp. [WGO-TSXV; WHGOF-OTC] recently said it has identified multiple new high-grade gold mineralization trends across its JP Ross property. JP Ross is one of two high pri - ority targets that are the focus of White Gold's $13 million, 2019 exploration program. The other is the White Gold property. The latest news from JP Ross further adds to the company's pipeline of regional gold finds. Headed by Shawn Ryan, the company's techni- cal advisor, White Gold is using exploration techniques developed by Ryan's company GroundTruth Exploration to speed up the pro- cess of finding gold-bearing anomalies. Backed by partners Kinross Gold Corp. [K-TSX, KGC-NYSE] and Agnico Eagle Mines Ltd. [AEM-TSX, NYSE], the company has said it is planning to complete 6,000 metres on the White Gold property as well as 10,000 metres at JP Ross. n YUKON
