Sitka Gold is expanding its district-scale landholding within the Clear Creek gold camp of Yukon by acquiring the Clear Creek property from Victoria Gold . The Clear Creek property adjoins Sitka’s flagship RC project and is 60 km southwest of Victoria’s Eagle gold mine.
“The purchase of Victoria Gold’s Clear Creek property marks a significant milestone in the evolution of the RC gold project as it consolidates the entire Clear Creek intrusive complex under one owner,” Sitka Gold’s CEO Cor Coe said in a news release. By acquiring the property, Sitka would add as many as four high-priority targets for intrusion-related gold deposits in the heart of Yukon’s Tombstone gold belt. The size of its RC property would also increase from 386 sq. km. to 431 sq. km.
