Let your eyes feast on these babies.
The Murex breccia zones are located in the central part of the property and are interpreted as a collapsed volcanic dome structure with shallow-dipping thrust faults cut by steeply dipping faults associated with polymetallic Cu-Ag-Au-As-Sb-Mo-Te bearing sulphide mineralization. Historic work identified a 700m X 700m area, the D Zone, along with the A Zone and E Zone, two breccia zones within a 1,200m X 3,000m area.

Tulameen Platinum, Magnesium, and Carbon Sequestration
Exploration at the Company’s 100% owned Tulameen Platinum Project is set to commence in the second half of April 2024. Historic assays by Imperial Metals resulted in two significant assays of 62g/t platinum and 31g/t platinum, including 4g/t gold. The property also contains a large magnesium deposit in the form of olivine and brucite, which is currently undergoing investigation for processing to magnesium oxide a widely used mineral with applications in the industrial, construction (wallboard and cement replacement), agricultural (fertilizer and animal nutrients), environmental (water treatment), and pharmaceutical (supplements) sectors. There is also great interest in the use of magnesium compounds, in particular the form of olivine and brucite, as occurs at Tulameen, for carbon sequestration. A large project is currently ongoing in Iceland, the world leader in geological carbon sequestration, utilizing magnesium compounds in situ. One tonne of olivine can bond with up to one-third of a tonne of CO2 making it one of the best natural carbon sinks. The global market for carbon sequestration price for carbon credits is in the $25 per tonne range, but this is heavily governed by local factors. The nearest carbon sequestration for British Columbia industry is out of Province in Alberta suggesting strong potential for a large scale storage facility and carbon credit creation and offset for industry in the western part of British Columbia due to the size of the deposit and potential monetization through existing carbon credit and offset programs. The Company anticipates providing further information on both the industrial magnesium compound and carbon sequestration potential of this project as developments occur. In addition, the Company will continue to focus on exploration for platinum group metals, in addition to copper, nickel and cobalt in and around the large olivine (Mg) deposit. Of note is the unique geology of the area, including, significant garnets and the historic report of a micro-diamond discovered in the southeast quadrant of the property.

North Bay Resources Announces Exploration at Murex Copper; Targets Historic Drill Holes up to 16m @ 6.1g/t Gold and Surface Samples up to >100g/t GoldPress Release | 03/13/2024
SKIPPACK, Pa., March 13, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- North Bay Resources Inc. (the “Company” or “North Bay”) (OTC: NBRI) is pleased to announce data compilation and exploration planning is nearing completion for its wholly owned Murex Copper project. Mobilization for exploration has commenced. Initial exploration will involve the updating of road and trail maps, identification of locations and landmarks using modern mapping techniques, including identification of previous surface sampling and drill collar locations at the Murex Breccia. Geochemical sampling, geophysics and geological mapping is expected to commence in earnest in April 2024 and continue throughout the Summer. The Company aims to further delineate the mineralized zones and begin the process of bringing the project compliant with modern exploration standards.
Extensive historical exploration by Standard Oil in the 1970’s and Noranda (Glencore), in the 1980’s, has provided a wealth of detailed data and information. The project is viewed as a transitional deposit containing significant copper-gold deposits across multiple zones and geological types, both large scale breccia and copper and gold bearing veins. Multiple drill sections of both high grade vein type copper and low grade, mass tonnage copper are known, up to 9% copper and continuous mineralized drill sections up to 120m @ 60 degrees, respectively (see press release dated March 6, 2024). Large intersections of gold in drill core up to 16m @ 6.1g/t gold have also been identified. In addition, historical surface samples from these zones are provided below showing significant gold and copper assays over large areas. This is separate and in addition to gold assays in the Northwest of the property where samples up to 60g/t gold were discovered in the Fall of 2023 (see Press Release dated March 6, 2024) confirming high grade gold in multiple zones as reported by previous operators.
Historical Geochemical Sampling
Although completed by qualified Geologists and Engineers of their day, historic results are not NI 43-101 compliant.
The Murex breccia zones are located in the central part of the property and are interpreted as a collapsed volcanic dome structure with shallow-dipping thrust faults cut by steeply dipping faults associated with polymetallic Cu-Ag-Au-As-Sb-Mo-Te bearing sulphide mineralization. Historic work identified a 700m X 700m area, the D Zone, along with the A Zone and E Zone, two breccia zones within a 1,200m X 3,000m area.

North Bay Resources Announces Assays from Copper Island Project: 5.93% Cu Avg. at Pomeroy 1 Zone and 9.06% Cu Avg. at Copper Bell Zone
SKIPPACK, Pa., Feb. 22, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- North Bay Resources Inc. (the “Company” or “North Bay”) (OTC: NBRI) is pleased to announce previously unreleased assays (with the exception of sample 23CIR-7) at its recently acquired Copper Island Red-Bed Copper Project, located in British Columbia, Canada (press release dated February 16th, 2024). Further, the Company has mobilized for exploration and expects exploration to commence on or about February 26th, 2024. The focus will be the Copper Bell zone (up to 14.7% Cu).
The Company reports Summer 2023 exploration consisted of 8 rock chip samples covering the Pomeroy 1 and Copper Bell zones. The confidential data (B.C. Assessment Report 41377) was recently acquired as part of the property acquisition. Rock chip sampling consisted of sequential leach for oxide, sulphide and residual geochemical analysis. Copper sequential leach (ALS method Cu-PKG06LI involving sulfuric & cyanide leach) identifies oxide, sulphide and residual copper geochemistry. A total of 8 rock samples, ranging from 0.68-1.84 kilograms in weight, of acorn sized rock chips were taken with rock hammer and moil, and placed in marked poly bags and shipped to ALS Chemex Labs Ltd, North Vancouver, BC for Prep-31 & Cu-PKG06LI sequential leach for oxide, sulphide and residual geochemical analysis (Analysis certificate VA23177512):
Pomeroy 1
23CIR-3 7.46% Cu
23CIR-4 8.48% Cu
23CIR-5 4.51% Cu
23CIR-6 3.28% Cu
Average
33 % oxide Cu,
65.4% sulphide Cu
1.6 % residual Cu (native copper)
Copper Bell
23CIR-7 14.7% Cu
23CIR-8 3.42% Cu
Average
22 % oxide Cu,
76.5 % sulphide Cu,
1.5 % residual Cu (native copper)
23CIR-1 and 23CIR-2, taken outside the mineralized zones, generated nominal results.
Historic Exploration and Development Work
Considerable previous work has been performed on the Pomeroy Group copper-silver bearing mineralization. Modern exploration began in 1952-53, when Dodge Copper carried out a detailed exploration program of trenching and diamond drilling. Dodge Copper drilled 145 holes totaling 8800 feet on various deposits. Extensive drilling and trenching of the mineralized zones was completed by Prince Stewart Mines Ltd. in 1972-74. In 2011, the claims were acquired by Copper Island Mines Ltd, and a program of geochemical sampling was carried out on the Pomeroy, Beaver and Colleen Zones. A significant portion of geochemical sampling returned >2% Cu from numerous new & historic copper-silver bearing mineral occurrences (Betmanis, 2012). There are 9 British Columbia MINFILE locations within the Project area (press release dated February 16th, 2024).
