About Hopper Project
The Hopper property hosts copper-gold skarn and porphyry mineralization in southwestern Yukon Territory. This 74 sq km road accessible property is located 22 km north of the Otter Falls hydroelectric generator within the Traditional Territory of the Champagne & Aishihik First Nation.The property lies within the Yukon-Tanana Terrane. The oldest rocks in the area comprise Devonian to Mississippian quartz-biotite±muscovite schists, which are intercalated with lesser biotite-bearing quartzite and banded marble. This package is intruded by a Late Cretaceous (76.0±1.1 and 83.7±1.9 Ma) granodiorite pluton, which is informally called the Hopper Pluton. The age of the Hopper Pluton places it in the same metallogenic episode as the Patton Porphyry, which is the mineralizing pluton at Western Copper and Gold Corporation’s Casino porphyry copper-gold-silver-molybdenum deposit located 190 km to the north-northwest. The Casino deposit contains 8.9 million ounces and 4.5 billion pounds in proven and
