Moly
The Thor deposit lies in the northwest part of a much larger property called the 'Expanded Property'. Outside of the Thor epithermal Mineral Resource area are a number of other prospects, mines and mineral occurrences that have seen various levels of exploration over the past 130 years. In 2026, Taranis will systematically evaluate a large number of these areas.
- The Moly prospect is at 1350 metres elevation north side of Lardeau Creek, between Finkle and Gainer Creeks. The showing was discovered and drilled by Moly Gold Resources Limited, in 1984.
- The Moly claim area is underlain by folded and deformed phyllites and grits of the Broadview Formation; however, the detailed geology of the area is poorly defined. Moly Gold Resources Limited located a strong gossan and diamond drilled one hole, for 20.11 metres, to test the occurrence. It intersected 2.59 metres of mineralized siliceous phyllite near a contact between phyllite and tuffaceous rock. The mineralized section included at least three quartz brecciated phyllite horizons, ranging from 0.03 to 0.46 metre in width, containing disseminated to semi-massive pyrite, sphalerite and galena. The best core section assayed 5.07 grams per tonne gold, 473 grams per tonne silver, 5.6 per cent lead and 2.56 per cent zinc over 0.21 metre.
