An advanced Copper-Zinc-Silver project with drill-defined resources, located in a region seeing renewed exploration activity from companies like Firefly Metals and AuMEGA.
Local skilled labour and support services are readily available, enabling continuous, year-round operations.
Newfoundland offers a globally recognized mining-friendly environment with strong, supportive legislation.
The project offers excellent accessibility with direct flights to Deer Lake and a sealed road along the tenure, plus additional property tracks.
Firetail aims to unlock Skyline’s potential through a well-designed, modern exploration initiative.
Skyline boasts 100,000 tonnes of historic production (3-12% Cu, 7% Zn, 1-3 oz/t Ag) between 1898 and 1913, with limited modern exploration since the 1990s by Noranda (now Glencore).
No property-wide Airborne EM survey was flown until recently. The 110 km² land package offers excellent potential for identifying VMS-style systems.
Recent focus on the Historic Mine delivered promising results, including:
No deep drilling completed to date, ~80% less than 200m from surface
Mineralization model indicates potential for additional blind VMS targets at depth along 25km prospective strike
Firetails maiden 5,000m diamond drilling program aims to infill and extend drill defined mineralization
Airborne EM survey across 16km of prospective strike – results in coming weeks
IP survey completed 2022
Results show high chargeability coupled with low resistivity indicating massive and semi-massive sulphide zones
First property wide Airborne EM survey October ’24, expanded to cover partial areas of new licences
Multiple opportunities to use geophysics to both define new targets and refine understanding of existing targets
