Dynasty

With grades up to 50.42 g/t AuEq after only 9 man-days of work, the B-All Syndicate’s Dynasty property holds much to reveal. The property covers an area of 1,714 hectares and is located 29 km southwest of Glenora, BC near the northern perimeter of the Golden Triangle of British Columbia, Canada. Dynasty is located 7 km south of an active placer gold mine and is situated in a region that is well known for hosting world-class precious metal and porphyry deposits. Several of these deposits occur within only 30-50 km of the property including the multiple porphyry systems at Galore Creek (12,159 million pounds of copper, 9.438 million ounces of gold, 174.086 million ounces of silver), the polymetallic copper project at Shaft Creek (5 billion pounds of copper, 3.7 million ounces of gold, 16.4 million ounces of silver), and the structurally controlled high-grade hydrothermal gold-silver zones at Trophy and Sphal Creek. The Dynasty property exploration also qualifies for the Critical Mineral Exploration Tax Credit (CMETC).

The host rock on the Dynasty property is the same as that which hosts vein-type gold mineralization at the past-producing Snip mine 115 kilometers south in the ‘Snippaker’ volcanic assemblage, which is upper Triassic to lower Jurassic in age. The veins in the ‘Snippaker’ volcanic assemblage are polymetallic, containing gold and silver-bearing pyrite, along with chalcopyrite, magnetite and lesser amounts of galena and sphalerite in a gangue of quartz/sericite/carbonate. The Dynasty property geology is favorable to host these types of deposits as confirmed by the presence of high-grade polymetallic veins and intense precious metal mineralization that has been discovered within the Dynasty claims.

Infrastructure already exists to service the development of the project with an active placer mine on the Barrington River located just 7 km north of the property. Future exploration work can be serviced by a camp located on the road to the placer mine adjacent to a runway landing strip just 5 km from the property. The Dynasty property is also easily accessible via a short helicopter flight from Glenora about 29 km away. 

Libero Copper and Gold Corp currently holds a large 27,098 ha property just 6 km north of the Dynasty property that likely hosts the source for the Barrington placer gold deposit. Over 4000 meters have been drilled to date on Libero’s Big Red project with significant copper grades at depth up to 0.28% Cu over 87 m.

The area on and around the Dynasty property has been explored by International Phoenix Energy Corp in 1988 and Skeena Resources Ltd in 1990. Over the two short summer exploration seasons they found:

• a 5 m wide sulphide-rich shear zone with massive chalcopyrite with up to 7.88 % Cu and up to 1.67 g/t Au

• “the gossan” showing that returned 5.6 % Cu over 0.7 m in a chip sample

• 4 float samples with grades between up to 11 g/t Au

• a grab sample with 1.46 g/t Au, 350 ppm Ag, 1.88% Cu, 2200 ppm Pb and 1480 ppm Zn

Since 1991 the property has not seen renewed exploration, and glacial ablation at the west side of the property has now opened up new outcrop with the potential for discovery of a larger mineralized system that ties in the historic findings with high-grade mineralization newly found by the B-All Syndicate team that explored the area in 2024.

The 2024 B-All Syndicate exploration of the Dynasty property consisted of 9 man-days and 53 samples and resulted in the discovery of 3 highly prolific zones:

• The newly discovered Empire Trend 540 m wide by 180 m long that includes a 50 g/t AuEq grab sample within a shear zone on the southwestern portion of the property. This previously unexplored area was recently exposed due to glacier recession. The B-All Syndicate team only briefly visited the area and found at least 20 different polymetallic quartz veins through both sides of a large ridge, from which a 4.21 g/t AuEq sample was acquired. The sample is located just 540 meters from the 50 g/t AuEq sample and has the same N-S strike direction. Mineralization in the quartz veins includes galena, chalcopyrite and pyrite.

• The team also located the impressive massive chalcopyrite vein within a 5 m wide, mineralized shear that is now named the Copperhead showing. This showing was originally discovered by International Phoenix Energy Corp in 1988. Four samples collected in 2024 assayed up to 3.18 % Cu at the Copperhead vein, however historic grades were up to 7.88 % Cu. Intense propylitic, porphyry-style alteration is widespread in this area.

• A widespread, 650 m wide zone, surrounding a historic high-grade 14.95 g/t Au, 1% Cu float sample was found to be of significant interest due to unique alteration minerals. The minerals and hydrothermally altered structures are reminiscent of the Mother Lode-gold system of California as well as the Bridge River, Cassiar and Atlin gold districts. 

• Multiple pieces of talus float composed of biotite-schist with sphalerite, galena, chalcopyrite and pyrrhotite mineralization that returned assays up to 4.00 g/t AuEq were collected. A brief traverse up the cliffs above the float zone did not identify the source, however this area is a priority to explore further.

The Empire trend consists of a series of gold-bearing and similarly mineralized quartz veins and shears that all strike north-south. The zone measures 540 meters wide by 180 meters long and remains open. The area has seen less than one day of prospecting by the B-ALL Syndicate with 4 out of 5 samples returning anomalous gold values up to 50.42 g/t AuEq (45 g/t Au, 249 g/t Ag & 1.33 % Cu) in sample D751301 from a silicified shear zone that itself is exposed on surface for 250 m and is 1 m wide on average.

Sample D751168 assayed 3.96 g/t Au and 15 g/t Ag from one of 15 parallel, centimeter-scale quartz veins across 30 meters that are on strike (157/86) with 20 more similar parallel quartz veins observed 180 meters to the north.

The Copperhead Showing (formerly the JR Showing, discovered by Phoenix Energy in 1988) consists of:

• Massive chalcopyrite vein 30cm wide with pyrite, bornite, malachite and azurite within a 5 m wide mineralized shear zone.

• The shear zone outcrops on surface for 18 meters of length and 5 meters of width, enclosed on all sides by overburden, leaving the mineralization open in all directions.

• Gold values up to 0.5 g/t Au at the Copperhead vein

• Copper assays with all 4 samples between 1.05 & 3.18 % and more results pending (historically up to 7.88 % Cu)

Widespread porphyry-style alteration was noted along 3 km of the central north portion of the Dynasty claim and was found to have propylitic alteration along with copper mineralization in the area surrounding the Copperhead Showing.

Further east from Copperhead near a cirque lake is a localized zone that hosts significant alteration minerals including mariposite, listwanite and pyrite at the margin of a quartz, quartz-carbonate and Fe-carbonate altered carbonate unit. This 1 km wide area also contained volcanics with quartz-carbonate breccias and pyrite that produced a 0.76 g/t Au sample from a piece of float with semi-massive pyrite. A 2016 float sample in this area (that had not been previously revisited) assayed 14.95 g/t Au & 1% Cu, indicating there is much more to be discovered here.

A paper titled “Geology and geochemistry of listwanite-related gold mineralization in the Sayi gold deposit, Xinjiang, NW China” written in the journal of Ore Geology Reviews discusses this style of alteration and mineralization:

Listwanite occurs in fault zones and in highly serpentinized, porous and fractured ultramafic rocks. Hydrothermal fluids migrate along micro-fractures and stockworks in highly altered serpentinite to form listwanite, consisting of a typical mineral assemblage of magnesite, dolomite, quartz, and mariposite with disseminated accessory minerals such as Cr-spinel and sulfide (T. Qiu and Y. Zhu).

The hydrothermal, listwanite and mariposite alteration on the Dynasty property shows promising potential for gold mineralization in quartz and quartz–carbonate veins such as in the Mother Lode gold system of California as well as the Bridge River, Cassiar and Atlin gold districts.

Up on the ridge to the southeast of the cirque lake was an area of mafic volcanic rock with strong limonite, specular hematite, pyrite and a striking K-feldspar phyric dyke. In this area a float sample of semi-massive pyrite assayed 1.5 g/t Au.

Multiple pieces of talus float were found composed of altered biotite-schist with sphalerite, galena, chalcopyrite and pyrrhotite mineralization that returned assays between up to 4.00 g/t AuEq including sample D751579 containing 1.92 g/t Au, 10.75 g/t Ag, 314 g/t Cu, 0.963 % Pb and 6.36 % Zn. A brief traverse up the cliffs above the float zone did not identify the source, however this area is a priority to explore further.

The work performed on the property in 2024 produced significant results including multiple samples with high-grade gold, silver, copper, lead and zinc assay results from grab samples as well as identifying widespread alteration that is likely linked to one or more gold-rich systems. The work was brief and consisted of only 9 man-days of fieldwork leaving excellent additional discovery potential.

Future fieldwork should include (1) follow up of the 45 g/t Au sample and the 15 parallel veins on the other side of that valley (2) detailed geologic mapping to determine the extent of the observed unique alteration on the property and also to determine the deposit type (3) digging and trenching work should be done to expand the copperhead vein as it is currently covered on all sides by overburden in preparation for future drilling.
