Caldera hosted Carlin-style gold mineralization at the contact between Eocene volcanics and Paleozoic sedimentary rocks, similar to the 1Moz deposit at Nevad King Gold’s Atlanta Mine.
Claim blocks straddle a NE-trending gravity high that heads towards the Horse Mountain Project. Intersection of NE-trending structures and WNW trending Caetano Caldera margin is an attractive exploration target.
Widespread historical drilling by numerous major and junior explorers during the period 1981-2002 tested siliciclastic and carbonate lithotypes in the Upper Plate Roberts Mountain and Upper Plate Golconda assemblages.
Several holes hit strongly anomalous gold mineralization.
Large region hosting anomalous Au-As-Hg values in volcanics and upper plate rocks indicate potential for upper plate and lower plate hosted gold targets.
