At the Elk project, between Merritt and Peachland, Gold
Mountain Mining Corporation drilled deep IP targets and
advanced prefeasibility work towards extending the historic pit.
In the Kootenay Region, Taranis Resources Inc. released a
resource estimate on its Thor property, where exhalative-type
base metal sulphides on the west limb of the Thor antiform are a
target. Activities were focused mainly on gold mineralization at
the SIF zone and consisted of geochemical sampling, mapping

and chip/panel sampling of a gold-bearing quartz veining system.
In the Coquihalla gold belt of southwestern B.C., New
Carolin Gold Corp. conducted surface exploration at its Ladner
Gold project, following a late-2012 drill program. The company
relocated and revisited historical mines and showings, compiled
recent drill results and took additional samples of Carolin Mine
tailings for metallurgical study. If reprocessing is viable, the tailings are a potential source of revenue to fund exploration.
