Canadian Empire Exploration Corp.’s 2003 exploration program has commenced with crews now being mobilized to the Yukon Olympic property, 130 km north of Dawson City. To define diamond drill targets, “in-fill” gravity, IP, magnetic and MMI geochemical surveys will be conducted over sections of a gravity anomaly outlined in 2002, over a length of 8.0 km and a width of 1.0 km. The gravity anomaly is proximal to a magnetic anomaly and areas of intermittently exposed copper-bearing hematitic breccia. Some 1500 m of drilling are planned later in July after conclusion of the surface exploration program.
No significant gold-silver assays were obtained in the drilling and plans for further drilling of Hemlo West will be held in abeyance for a few months.
