Mining News: Northern Neighbors: Aben begins recon exploration of Golden Triangle’s Forrest Kerr

Aben Resources Ltd. Sept. 7 reported the start of exploration at its 23,000-hectare (53,830 acres) Forrest Kerr property located in British Columbia’s Golden Triangle. The 2016 fieldwork is intended to provide reconnaissance-scale geological exploration across the project, which spans roughly 40 kilometers (25 miles). The newly-constructed access road to Galore Creek, a large copper-gold project being advanced by Novagold Resources and Teck Resources, cuts through the north end of the property. This area will be a particular focus of Aben’s reconnaissance program. The objective of the current program is to provide confirmation of existing high-grade mineral occurrences, soil and geophysical anomalies, geological and structural relationships. In addition, prospecting and geological mapping will be completed to further identify and confirm target areas for follow-up drilling campaigns. Permitting for future drilling is currently underway.
