Herbert Glacier
The Herbert Glacier project is an early stage, partially drill-tested, high-grade, gold mineralized mesothermal quartz vein system in the historic Juneau Gold Belt of southeast Alaska. Consisting of 91 unpatented lode claims located 30 km north of Juneau and to the south of Couer Alaska's new Kensington gold mine. The property covers six parallel vein structures exposed at the toe of a retreating glacier.Key facts and information about our Herbert Glacier Property include:
- Grande Portage ("GPG") has earned a 65% interest in the Herbert Glacier Property. Its joint venture partner, Quaterra Resources Inc. (TSX-V: "QTA", NYSE Amex: "QMM"), holds the remaining 35% interest.
- The property is located 30 km north of Juneau, Alaska, and lies within the 160-km long Juneau gold belt, which has produced nearly seven million ounces of gold.
- GPG has already identified 6 or more promising gold-producing main composite vein-fault structures containing ribbon structure quartz-sulfides on the property.
- Herbert Glacier is one of Alaska's most promising districts and has remained remarkably underexplored until now.
- 2011 drilling yielded a 15.27 metre intercept of 1.084 ounces gold per tonne - Other multi-ounce gold intercepts have also been received
- Baseline environmental water studies now underway.
