OUR PROJECTS – ANTIMONY & GOLD

Fredricksburg Project - South

CSE : TICO  |  FWB : ON8

Geological Significance:

Shale Hosted Antimony Deposits

The Fredricksburg South Project is a highly prospective antimony–gold exploration property located approximately 35 km NNW of Fredericton and 10 km west of Stanley, New Brunswick.

The property is well situated within a mining-friendly jurisdiction with strong infrastructure and regulatory clarity.

A Confirmed Antimony System:

The project lies within a proven antimony-anomalous corridor identified by:

  • Government regional till surveys

  • Historic Tri-Star Antimony exploration (2011–2014)

  • Recent airborne magnetics and MMI geochemistry programs (2019)

Previous Work Summary:

  • 2011–2012 Program:

    Prospecting, mapping, till geochemistry and auger drilling yielded till anomalies that confirmed elevated Sb, with bedrock returning values up to 25 ppm and identified granitic intrusions with anomalous Sb up to 29 ppm (Lutes, 2012).2

  • Key Results from the 2013-2014 Program include:

    • Sb up to 11.2 ppm (Dahn, 2014)3
    • Au up to 112 ppb (Dahn, 2014)3
    • As up to 292 ppm (Lutes, 2012)2
    • Coincident Sb–Au–As geochemical anomalies identified across multiple survey lines

  • 2019 VLF-EM Geophysics & MMI Survey:

    The 2019 159 line-km drone magnetic survey and Mobile Metal Ion (MMI) geochemistry survey defined structural corridors and confirmed a multi-element response including Sb, As and Au.

2013-2014 Soil & VLF Program:

• Grid establishment,
• 310 soil samples
• VLF-EM Survey

Prospect float sample returning:

• 5.1 ppm Sb
• 378 ppm Pb
• 895 ppm Zn

Introduction

The Fredricksburg North Projects target sediment hosted and structurally controlled antimony anomalies identified through New Brunswick Geological Survey regional till geochemical surveys, featuring :

  • Multiple high-grade Sb values (>20 ppm) in NBGS lodgement till samples1 on the project tenures, along with a 5-10 ppm anomalous halos, define prospective zones for follow-up within greater sediment and felsic flow formations.

Strategically Located:

This geological setting and scale of the anomalous corridor suggest Fredricksburg has the potential for to host a structurally controlled sediment hosted epithermal antimony system with district-scale exploration upside.

The Fredricksburg North Project blocks occur within the Appalachian tectonic belt and are near several established antimony and gold occurrences in southern New Brunswick, including:

  • Lake George Antimony Mine (info)

  • Bald Hill Antimony Deposit

  • Clarence Stream Gold Deposit
