(OTC PINK:DSCR) is an acquisition and development company that targets natural resource properties and cutting edge technology opportunities through its subsidiaries. The property also features an excellent system of roads, and is accessible via paved highway from Reno or Sacramento, has abundant water and timber available for mining use, and has PG&E power available on-site.ĭiscovery Minerals Ltd. The Ruby is fully permitted for mining operations and there is over $3.5M in equipment and infrastructure already in place which includes a fully operational treatment facility.
Identifying additional channels as well as lode deposits in quartz veins that are known to exist on the property and will require additional development and geological survey work that has already commenced. We will bring new technology and geological survey process to Ruby that we believe will quickly identify new mining targets." The combination of already identified near term mining targets with the largely unexplored greenstone belt provides significant potential of additional gold reserves. While Ruby has been one of the most prolific mines in California, what is so extraordinary is how much of the claims are virtually unexplored. to acquire The Ruby Mining claims and commence mining operations on this historic project. Russel Smith CEO of Discovery Minerals Ltd commented " We are extremely happy to complete our agreement with Sierra Gold LLC. The property covers approximately 1,755 acres consisting of the subsurface mineral rights and mining claims. The Ruby Mine is located between Downieville and Forest City, in Sierra County, California, approximately 100 miles north of Sacramento and 90 miles west of Reno, NV. Geologists have proposed that with careful evaluation and a judicious drilling program a substantial new resource could be uncovered. Using modern geological concepts & technologies that have emerged around the world in other gold mining areas, Discovery Geologists will use experience gained in the past 40 years where shut down mines have often doubled their original output of gold by starting new operations adjacent to and underneath these previous operations.
Although only worked at very shallow depths underfoot from the main Ruby access tunnel, the production was reported to have averaged 10 grams per ton of gold at working widths. There are clear indications of this occurrence in the Wolf Vein that produced 1625 oz of gold by the earlier miners from the vertical greenstone formation that underlies the buried river channels. The Discovery Minerals Geologists will be investigating this greenstone belt. In addition to the well established placer ore that will be mined initially, one of the most exciting features of the Ruby mine is the large greenstone belt formed in the Archean Age that is largely unexplored and is the source of the placer gold. Historically the channels have produced up to 106,000 oz per mile, indicating a potential of 370,000 oz of gold still to be mined from the buried placer. There are 3.5 miles of river channels yet to be mined on the Ruby mining claims. Placer, refers to mining the buried watercourse river bed at Ruby. It is conservatively estimated that 134,844 ounces of gold are available for near-term recovery from identified channels using the existing Ruby infrastructure. The Ruby is also renowned for its production of coarse and jewelers-grade gold, with the largest gold nugget weighing 201 ounces or 17 pounds. It features a system of gold-bearing Tertiary channels which have been reported to have already produced over 250,000 ounces of gold. The Ruby is one of California's best-known buried placer mines, and is considered by many to be one of the largest producing river channel mines of modern times.
