Mining Requires More Than Finding Gold

Walker Creek Mining Company explores the disciplines behind identifying, evaluating and advancing precious-metal mining opportunities.

Gold. Silver. Platinum-group metals.

But valuable mineralization is only the beginning.

Successful mining requires understanding the relationship between:

Geology → Sampling → Recovery → Infrastructure → Permitting → Operations

UNDERSTAND THE PROJECT

Mining properties can exist at dramatically different stages.

Exploration Properties

Ground with geological potential requiring additional investigation.

Advanced Projects

Properties supported by meaningful technical, sampling, drilling or development information.

Past-Producing Mines

Historic operations that may warrant evaluation using modern geological and recovery methods.

Operating Opportunities

Projects where infrastructure, permitting, equipment and operating history become central to the evaluation.

LOOKING FOR A MINING PROPERTY?

The first step should not be asking:

“How much gold is there?”

The better questions include:

What documentation exists?

How was the property sampled?

What mineral rights are being transferred?

What recovery testing has been completed?

What infrastructure is available?

What permits exist?

What additional capital and technical work may be necessary?

Walker Creek Mining Company helps bring a mining perspective to those questions.
