Mining firm submits plan for exploration |
July 26, 2013 |
Minerals and Metals Group (MMG), a mid-tier
global resources company which explores,
develops and mines base metal deposits around
the world, headquartered in Melbourne,
Australia, has submitted a proposed plan of
operation to the U.S. Forest Service for mineral
exploration in northern Boundary County. MMG holds mining claims on around 10,000 acres in the Hall Mountain, Copeland and Mission Creek areas. The Hall Mission to Drill proposal continues explorations in 2011 with eight drill sites to develop a more complete 3D model of subsurface mineralization, plus continued soil and rock sampling and stream sediment sampling. The eight drilling sites are accessed by existing Forest Service roads. If the exploration proves successful, MMG plans to submit additional plans of operation for additional exploration and potential development. To find out more, call mineral administrator Josh Sadler at the Idaho Panhandle National Forest supervisor's office in Coeur d'Alene, (208) 765-7206. |
