Last summer Barkerville Gold shocked the junior mining market with a NI 43-101 report stating a resource of 10.6 million indicated ounces with a potential of 65-90 million ounces.
This immediately got the attention of junior mining stock investors as this would be one of the largest deposits ever found.
Barkerville is known to be the home of the British Columbia Gold Rush and has many active placer mines in operation today. The source has never been found per say but a 5 million ounce gold (Blackwater) deposit in the vicinity was found by Richfield Ventures (since bought out by New Gold).
