Update on White Pine Project

White Pine Copper, LLC, a subsidiary of Canadian company Highland Copper, is on its way to finding out more about the potential for mining copper near the site of the former White Pine mine. An experienced, multi-disciplinary staff gathered at the site in 2014 to undertake the pre-feasibility study required to verify if copper is present at quantities that are economically recoverable. In addition to native copper, geologists at White Pine are looking at deposits of chalcocite, a copper sulfide ore. Drillers from IDEA Drilling are working around the clock to dig up samples for geologists to observe in order to help determine the size and orientation of the ore body beneath the surface. The pre-feasibility study at White Pine is expected to be complete this summer.
