Toronto, Ontario–(Newsfile Corp. – February 24, 2025) – Arizona Copper and Gold Ltd (the “Company” or “ACG”) is pleased to announce that it has entered into an agreement to acquire a 100% interest in the past-producing McCabe gold mine (“McCabe”) located on 87 acres of patented land (Figure 1) which include water rights. McCabe is located within ACG’s larger BLM claim package of 3,350 acres that make up the Company’s Eagle Property (Figure 2).
Between 1980 and 1984, Stan West Mining spent US$12 million on drilling and developing the McCabe deposit to a depth of 315 metres. An additional US$23M was incurred during 1986 to build a 500 tpd mill and initiate underground production. In 1984, Stan West published a “Total Reserve Estimate1” (the “Estimate”) of 878,000 ounces of gold at a grade of 11.7 g/t, as well as 5,120,000 ounces of silver grading 69 g/t. ACG estimates that total spending of US$35 million between 1980 and 1988 would equate to CDN$110 million if indexed to 2025 dollars.
During 1987 and 1988, Stan West Mining and Magma Mining reported total mine production of only 80,000 ounces gold at the McCabe Mine. ACG believes there is significant potential to expand and further define the remaining McCabe deposit. The Stan West Estimate of 878,000 ounces was calculated using a gold price of US$350/oz and cut-off grade of 6.75 g/t gold. Importantly, McCabe has not been drilled below a depth of 315 metres. In addition, ACG has also identified a number of parallel and conjugate veins that were not included in the Stan West Estimate.
The acquisition of the McCabe property, along with the recently announced acquisition of the Sunol, Palo Alto, and Columbia mines, will increase ACG’s total holdings of patented land to 120 acres, within a large total claim package of 3,470 acres.
Arizona Copper and Gold Ltd (“ACG”) is a private company that owns 100% of the Eagle Property in Yavapai County, which is located on 239 unpatented BLM claims totaling 3,350 acres that are not subject to any royalties. The claims host at least 12 past-producing gold mines. A sampling program completed by ACG in late 2024 identified at least 12 mineralized zones and structures which have not been tested with modern exploration methods (including geophysics or drill testing).
The Eagle Property covers a broad area to the west, southwest, and south of the historic Iron King volcanogenic massive sulfide (VMS) mine, with reported production of 5.7 million tonnes grading 2.6 g/t gold, 91 g/t silver, 4.9% zinc, 1.8% lead and 0.1% copper from 1903 to 1969.
Mapping and Sampling Program
During September 2024, a total of 209 samples were collected along mineralized zones at the Eagle Property. Samples were submitted to ALS laboratory in Tucson, Arizona with 5% standards and 5% blanks inserted into the sample sequence. Additional geological mapping and sampling were completed during October 2024, with an additional 41 samples collected and submitted with 5% standards and 5% blanks inserted into the sample sequence.
Figure 5 below displays a detailed geological map, showing the various lithologies of the Eagle Property, as well as numerous past-producing gold and VMS mines on or adjacent to the project. The Eagle Property hosts a variety of mineralization styles that originated from at least two principal mineralizing events. Property-wide high-grade samples are displayed in Figure 1.
Eagle Gold Zone
In the southwestern portion of the Eagle Property, high-grade gold mineralization was sampled in a number of quartz veins. Select high grade results in this area include 92 g/t gold, 23.6 g/t gold, 11.2 g/t, 8.6 g/t gold, 6.6 g/t gold, and 6.2 g/t gold (Figure 2).
Eagle Copper Zone
In the southern portion of the Eagle Property, copper mineralization is hosted within apparent stratiform zones and veins. Copper oxide veinlets with silicified alteration are abundant and occur with chalcopyrite and pyrite in quartz veins (Figure 3). There are many workings and pits in this area.
Select high grade results in this area included 27.6% copper, 4.5% copper, 3.8% copper and 3.0% copper. High grade gold and silver were also encountered in this area, including 29.4 g/t gold, 653 g/t silver, and 450 g/t silver (Figure 4).
The strongly anomalous copper, gold, and silver results on samples of this type indicate impressive potential for VMS mineralization within the area sampled and in surrounding areas. Based on strong similarities with Iron King VMS ore, the Eagle Copper Zone represents a target that requires detailed exploration as a potential to host similar deposits.
Marc Pais, Chairman and Director, commented, “Arizona Copper and Gold has assembled a large land package hosting numerous past-producers in mining-friendly Yavapai County. Recent sampling has identified property-wide high grade mineralization containing copper, gold, silver and zinc. The acquisition of the McCabe Mine announced today adds a significant high-grade past-producing deposit that has not been explored since 1988. We believe there is potential to greatly expand on the historic estimate produced in 1984 by Stan West Mining, which was drilled to a relatively shallow depth of only 315 metres. The deposit is open at depth and our recent surface sampling program has identified at least 12 mineralized veins that were not historically drill tested. Upcoming work will start with geophysical testing to further define mineralized trends, including airborne VTEM and ground-based resistivity and induced polarization tests. The Company intends to undertake a public-listing during 2025.”
