In British Columbia, Northern Lights Resources is pleased to announce the acquisition of an option agreement with veteran prospector Bernie Kreft to acquire a 100% interest in the Horetzky Copper Project in Central British Columbia. This strategic acquisition enhances the Company's presence within the prolific Babine porphyry copper belt, a region known for its past-producing Bell and Granisle copper-gold mines, as well as several advanced-stage copper-gold exploration projects, including American Eagle’s Nak project, Amarc Resources’ Duke and Hearne Hill projects, and Pacific Booker Minerals’ Morrison deposit.
Horetzky exhibits key geological characteristics associated with significant copper-gold porphyry systems. The presence of Eocene-aged Babine plutonic suite intrusions and coeval dykes has resulted in widespread alteration within surrounding volcanics and sediments, highlighting the Project's strong exploration potential.
The Project hosts a substantial 3.0 km² copper soil geochemical anomaly, with multiple samples exceeding 1,000 ppm copper. This anomaly remains open for expansion to the southeast and southwest, where it aligns with a strong positive magnetic anomaly, presenting further exploration and development opportunities.
Strategically located approximately 95 kilometers northeast of the regional center of Smithers, the Horetzky Copper Project comprises 11 tenures covering a total of 5,057 hectares. With favorable geology, proximity to infrastructure, and significant exploration upside, this acquisition aligns with Northern Lights Resources' commitment to advancing high-value copper and gold assets in well-established mining districts, offering potential for long-term growth and investor value.
