Buzz up! Print TORONTO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Uranium Hunter Corporation (OTCBB: URHN - News) announced today that it has entered into a Joint Venture Agreement to acquire 49% interest of the Eagle Nest Mining Property Claims (“Eagle Nest”) located in La Paz County, Arizona from Sparrowtech Resources, Inc.
Mr. Reno Calabrigo, President stated “This joint venture agreement represents a diversification to include the precious metal industry and will provide the Company with increased growth opportunity within the current economy.”
The Eagle Nest Mining Property
Eagle Nest includes a previously producing Au-Cu-Ag-Fe (Gold, Copper, Silver and Iron) mine located 10 miles off Highway 95 in La Paz County, Arizona. Easy access to the mine site and a good water supply will facilitate ease of construction for a potential processing plant as well as expansion of the mine site.
Mineralization previously documented on Eagle Nest is very fine-grained to visible flaky gold, with oxidized copper ores and staining, in a linear, lenticular ore body with a steeply dipping fault zone cutting metamorphic Mesozoic, red, hematitic shale. Lenticular ore body formed from oxidation and enrichment was also found in the fault zone.
Previous workings include a 400 feet (121.92 meter) deep shaft and about 170 feet of drifts on the 100 level with some near-surface stopes. The previous mining operation on this property recorded historic productions of 1,050 tons of ore averaging about 1.07 ounces per ton gold, 1.8% copper and 2.1 ounces per ton silver.
Uranium Hunter will be updating its corporate website www.uraniumhuntercorp.com and release further details on the property including assay and concentration testing results in the near future.
