It is also very encouraging that both projects have Triassic age plutons, which is the likely source of the copper porphyry mineralization at the Hercules Project.

Key Points: 
  • It is also very encouraging that both projects have Triassic age plutons, which is the likely source of the copper porphyry mineralization at the Hercules Project.
  • This suggests there is strong potential for discovery of a blind copper porphyry at Zeus as well.
  • As the figure shows, there are many similarities between the Hercules Project and Zeus Project.
  • Figure 4 Summary: Figure 4 is a cross-section looking north through the Mineral Project (Hercules) and Zeus Project (NevGold) in the Mineral District.
