Happy Creek Minerals Ltd. (TSX-V:HPY, OTC:HPYCF) CEO Jason Bahnsen spoke with Proactive about a 10,000-meter exploration drilling program at the Fox Tungsten project in British Columbia.
He emphasized that the 139-square-kilometer project hosts one of North America’s highest-grade tungsten deposits, with an initial resource estimate from 2018 of approximately one million tons at a combined grade of around 1%.
The current drilling campaign aims to expand this resource by targeting several newly identified mineralized horizons, potentially increasing the project’s overall tonnage.
Proactive: You have an up to 10,000-meter exploration drilling program at your Fox Tungsten projects in British Columbia. Can you tell us what’s planned?
Jason Bahnsen: Yes. At Fox, it’s a 100% owned, large-scale, district-scale project covering about 139 square kilometers. We acquired the project in 2006 and have done several campaigns of drilling since then. We published a resource in 2018 with about 1 million tons in total of indicated and inferred resource at around 1% combined grade, which is very high for tungsten.
