About Eagle Lake Property

The 18,990 hectares of Eagle Lake site are early porphyry copper deposits and medium-temperature gold deposits in the Caribou Block, about 55 km east of Williams Lake in south-central British Columbia.

(See overview map). Accommodation is a road accessible from an extensive network of well-maintained Forest Office roads. The Eagle Lake property is 100% owned by Trailbreaker, some of which is subject to a 1% NSR to Teck.

The newly integrated Trailbreaker claim is located within Kessner Terrain, where some of BC’s massive copper-gold porphyry deposits are hosted. These include the Afton mine in New Gold, the Mount Polley mine in Imperial Metal, the Gibraltor mine in Taseco, and the Mount Milligan and Chemes mine in Centara Gold. Kessner Terrain also hosts a number of advanced gold projects, including the Spanish Mountain Gold project (measured and displayed resources over 4.5 Moz Au) 45 km north of Lake Eagle and the Karus Gold FG Gold project located 35 km. I am. east.

The property is supported by the Nikola Group’s minor Late Triassic volcanic rocks, as well as Late Triassic to Early Jurassic intrusive rocks of Tacomcane Batholith (see regional geological map). The Eagle Lake property is adjacent to the advanced Woodjam Cu-Au project and shares similar geological settings. The Woodjam project targets the Cu-Au porphyry deposit with an estimated resources of 1.7 billion pounds of copper and 968,100 ounces of gold.

The Trailbreaker team believes that the gold potential of this property has been overlooked in the past, as copper porphyry-style mineralization was the focus of all previous research done on this property. For example, in 2010, a small diamond drill program targeting the Cu-Au porphyry mineralization (“Moffat Zone”) at the southern end of the Eagle Lake property produced a significant gold-only mineralization. In the Moffats Zone, excavation returned 3.52 g / t Au sections over 9.9 m (starting at 253 m) in quartz stockwork and breccia (see Moffats Zone Map). No follow-up work has been done so far. A regional til sampling program conducted in 2019 showed that anomalous til gold values were returned from the southern part of the Eagle Lake property hosting this drill hole.

2022 expedition on Lake Eagle

Trailbreaker plans to focus on exploration work in the Moffats Zone with a detailed mobile metal ion (MMI) soil geochemical survey. MMI Geochemistry is a proven surface exploration technique with a proven track record of discovering deeply buried deposits around the world. Unlike traditional soil geochemical surveys, MMI analysis measures the metal ions that move upward from the bedrock and accumulate in the surface soil, thus detecting deeply buried mineralization and making it more focused. Can provide narrowed down anomalies. The planned MMI survey is tightly spaced and designed to provide drill targets focused on potential drill campaigns in the future.

Contract terms with Teck

The following conditions apply to the sale of claims held by Teck:

Trailbreaker shall issue 125,000 shares of common stock within 7 business days of being approved by the TSX Venture Exchange. Upon issuance of shares, Teck will transfer ownership of the property to Trailbreaker.

Message from the president

“I’m very excited about the addition of Eagle Lake’s assets to our ever-growing portfolio of projects. The addition of a new project in Southern British Columbia has now greatly enhanced our busy exploration. Looking forward to the season. Eagle Lake Properties has the potential to become a true game changer for Trailbreaker.

There is plenty of land to explore here, with excellent access and infrastructure, and with neighbors like the Woodjam Copper-Gold project, it’s easy to imagine the potential of the area.

As always, stay tuned for future updates! “
