Marny & Track: Overview

The Marny and Track properties are located in the Tombstone Gold Belt within the Dawson Mining District.  They comprise a total of 28 mineral claims.

Marny & Track:  Geology

The Tombstone Gold Belt hosts a wide variety of precious metal occurrences, including vein, stockwork, skarn and replacement-style deposits.  The most noteworthy deposits within the belt are; the Fort Knox, True North and Pogo Mines in Alaska; and the former Brewery Creek Mine and the current and former mines comprising the Keno Hill District in Yukon.

The Marny and Track properties are primarily of interest for skarn-style mineralization.  Historical geochemical and geophysical surveys have identified anomalies in sedimentary rocks on the margins of granitic plutons assigned to the Tombstone Suite.  Drilling on the Track property and on claims adjoining the Marny property has confirmed that gold occurs in skarnified horizons along with tungsten and bismuth, which are common gold pathfinders in the Tombstone Gold Belt.

Marny & Track:  2011 Objectives

Mill City’s 2011 exploration plans for the properties will consist of soil geochemical surveys and systematic prospecting followed up with diamond drilling, if warranted.
