Next Steps
At the Alaska Johnson Tract project, a deposit was discovered and explored between 1982 and 1995. This project then lay dormant with no activity until TravisGold Global initiated exploration work in 2019. Johnson Tract is considered a mid-stage exploration project, meaning that a deposit has been discovered but more work is required to both expand and better understand it. TravisGold Global is currently in the exploration phase with a focus on both expanding the size of the deposit and conducting reconnaissance exploration on the surrounding property with the objective of discovering peripheral zones or other deposits of mineralization. The work will include prospecting, mapping, rock and soil sampling, geophysical surveys, exploration drilling in addition to cultural and environmental studies.
