Prize Mining just expanded its land package in south-eastern BC with this acquisition of the Toughnut Property. the terms of the deal are outlined below. The most important aspect of the news for me is that the Toughnut Property is right beside (contiguous) the Company’s Kena Property and builds the overall land package in the area.

I will be having the CEO Feisal Somji on the show tomorrow for a rundown of how this acquisition fits into the Company’s strategy. Prize will begin its exploration program in approximately a month and should have a stead stream of news throughout the year.

Calgary, Alberta– (Marketwired – June 21, 2017) – PRIZE MINING CORPORATION (“Prize” or the “Company”) (TSXV:PRZ ) (MQSB:GR:FRANKFURT) is pleased to announce that it has entered into an option agreement to acquire 100% interest in the Toughnut Property, located in south-eastern British Columbia.

The 1,010 hectare Toughnut Property lies contiguous to the west side of Prize’s Daylight Property, where an extensive summer exploration program is about to begin. The Toughnut claims strategically cover over 3.5km strike length of the Silver King shear including most of the mineralized land between Prize’s main Starlight-Daylight block and Prize’s Sand block to the northwest.

Feisal Somji, President and CEO of Prize Mining commented, “This is a strategic acquisition for Prize Mining as we now control what we believe to be the most significant part of the mineralized Silver King shear zone.  This parcel of land will be play an important role in this summer’s exploration program as we prepare to drill this fall.”

The Toughnut Showing (MF 092FSW294) which includes old pits, shafts and trenches had grab samples from Pacific Sentinel in 1989 that returned 6.64 g/t, 8.65 g/t, and 32.8 g/t Au with associated silver ranging between 33 and 175 g/t Ag.  Follow up diamond drilling by Valterra Resource in 2010 returned a best intercept of 6.9 g/t Au and 143 g/t Ag over 2.0m, and 4.05 g/t Au over 8.0m in hole VTN10-005.

The Gold Eagle Showing (no recorded Minfile) located 500m north of the Toughnut Showing was drilled by US Borax in 1988 who reportedly returned a strongly anomalous intercept of 90 g/t Au over 1.53m (RC hole S88-43) (AR 19503). In 2010 Valterra Resources also drilled the property with its best results being 4.02 g/t Au and 9.52 g/t Ag over 24.33m (inc. 4.0m of 14.47 g/t Au and 3.46 g/t Ag).  The zone has been tested to 73m and remains open and along strike and down dip.

To acquire the Toughnut Property, the Company must, on an aggregate-basis, pay CDN $150,000, issue 250,000 common shares, and incur CDN $750,000 of exploration expenditures over a five-year period.   The Toughnut Property will be subject to a 2 % NSR on its acquisition by Prize.  Prize shall have the right to purchase one-half of the 2% NSR for the purchase price of C$2,000,000 on or before the date on which Commercial Production commences.

The option remains subject to the satisfaction of customary conditions, including the acceptance of the TSX Venture Exchange.  There is no certainty that the option will be exercised by Prize. The Toughnut Property is not presently considered to be a property material to Prize.

    Slow week on this page. This article from Avi is very good in my opinion and different than most analysts are projecting in the near term. For me, it’s hopeful and could very well be correct, catching most off balance: http://news.goldseek.com/GoldSeek/1498049737.php
    This could also b e a solid case of confirmation bias on my part!

    GCC getting absolutely hammered. Monthly stochastics are oversold as of now, The lower monthly Bollinger band (20,2) at 17.81 hasn’t been tagged yet. If this is going to bottom here, I would like to see that lower BB hit before the end of this month. Otherwise I think next month will make a lower low.

    Absolutely pathetic performance for commodities on a 40 year timescale. Yes, every so often you get a 10 year period where you get a rally or mere flattening vs equities. But the dominant trend for the last 40 years has been one in which equities have skyrocketed in real purchasing power terms.

    Mining or harvesting anything but gold or silver is an absolute mug’s game.

      I agree, but as Keynes said, in the long run, we’re all dead.
