Exceptional Properties

Electrum Gold-Silver Property, British Columbia – 100% owned

The Electrum property has a rich history with some of the highest grade hand-mined ore mined in North America combined with excellent logistics. The property is located directly between two high-grad vein gold/silver mines; the past producing Silbak Premier mine and Pretiums high-grade Brucejack mine (production in 2017).All three lie within the Iskut mineral district (a particularly prolific part of the Canadian Cordillera) with numerous geological similarities between them.

The Electrum Property holds significant potential to attract mining companies when considering its high-grade nature combined with the exceptional logistics in place.

  • Located in the prolific Golden Triangle of northwestern British Columbia, an area encompassing mineral rich belts that host more than 43 past producing mines including Eskay Creek, Silbak Premier, Granduc and Big Missouri.It is a hotbed of activity with one new mine having come online in 2015 (Imperial Mines Red Chris) and another scheduled for 2017 (Pretium Brucejack) and at least three more world-class mining projects headed toward production.
  • Located in a particularly rich valley with 4 past producing commercial mines and a 5th in the adjacent valley.
  • Includes the historic East Gold Mine that had intermittent small-scale production of approximately 46 tonnes of ore with grades averaging 1,661 grams of gold per tonne and 2,596 grams of silver per tone (roughly 50oz gold with 75oz silver).
  • Mineralization is believed to be very similar to the silver-gold-base metal veins responsible for the precious metal mineralization found in the Silbak Premier Mine and the Big Missouri mines (located in same extended valley).
  • Pretiums Brucejack Summary Report (for exploration) compares itself geologically to the Silbak Premier mine as well.
  • Exceptional gold and silver assays including 440 g/t gold with 400 g/t silver over 0.52m, with numerous silver intervals of 583g/t, 501 g/t, 420 g/t, 384 g/t in core, and surface samples of 80.96 g/t gold with 80,818 g/t silver, 694 g/t gold with 550 g/t silver, 54.77 g/t gold with 14,903 g/t silver, 615 g/t gold with 616 g/t silver.
  • A very successful program was run in 2015 wherein:
    • A new approach focusing on high-grade was employed very successfully
    • A new zone of gold / silver mineralization was discovered
    • A better understanding of the property geology was obtained
    • Surface samples from the structure averages 27,092 gm/tonne silver and 248 gm/tonne gold



  • The program proved the Electrum Property has multiple high-grade gold-silver epithermal breccia vein systems and gave us a better understating of their sequencing.
  • Excellent logistics including road access, power located 2 km away and a bulk tonnage shipping port and supportive mining town located just40 km away in a mining friendly jurisdiction.

The high-grade ELECTRUM PROPERTY recently had a program run on it. CLICK HERE for the Electrum presentation and HERE for the 2015 drill program presentation. The highly mineralized gossans on the Electrum are shown in the image at the top of this page.

2015 Drill Program Presentation

Treaty Creek Gold-Copper Property, British Columbia – 51% Joint Venture

Treaty Creek Property


Treaty Creek is located in British Columbia’s prolific Golden Triangle; one of the richest areas of mineralization in the world with one new mine having come online in 2015 (Imperial Mines Red Chris) and another scheduled for 2017 (Pretium Brucejack) and at least three more world-class mining projects headed toward production.

Mineralization in the Treaty Creek claims area lies within the same broad hydrothermal system that generated the several deposits on the Seabridge Gold KSM and the Pretivm Brucejack properties that lie immediately southwest of the Treaty Creek claims. So far over 130 million ounces of gold, 800 million ounces of silver and 20 billion pounds of copper (all categories included), representing one of the greatest concentrations of metal value on the planet, have been delineated within the geological system shared by KSM, Brucejack, and Treaty Creek.

Seabridge Gold’s KSM is the world’s largest undeveloped gold/silver project by reserves while Pretium’s Brucejack is the highest grading undeveloped large-scale gold project in the world.KSM has just past the environmental and permitting stage while the Brucejack is in construction phase.
Treaty Creek is part of the same large hydrothermal system as it’s neighbours, hosts the same bedrock geology as its neighbours, the same magneto-telluric (MT) anomalies that proved to be large deposits on the neighbours claims, the same major fault system (Sulphurets) that is responsible for KSM’s deposits, and initial exploration and drilling show similar results to initial drilling on KSM.

The Treaty Creek property is in a strategic location as it’s included in Seabridge’s plan for the KSM to go into production. Seabridge has proposed twin tunnels that would take the KSM ore through American Creek’s Treaty Creek property to a processing plant and tailings pond.

-The company’s 100% owned River Valley PGM resources is one of the largest undeveloped primary PGM resources in Canada ( http://pfncapital.com/s/Home.asp)

April 25th, 2016 Vancouver, Canada / Pacific North West Capital Corp. (“PFN”, the “Company”) (TSX.V: PFN; Frankfurt: P7J.F; OTCQX: PAWEF announces that is has acquired, through option, a lithium brine project in Clayton Valley, Esmeralda County, Nevada.

The company is near completion of its due diligence period with regard to the agreement. Ongoing forward plans for the project will be released after the due diligence period is complete. Announcements concerning the technical aspects of the project and the terms and conditions of the agreement will be forthcoming. Once the due diligence is completed, the project location and technical overview of the project in the Clayton Valley area of Nevada will be explained.

Management previously announced (April 6th, 2016, April 14th, 2016, April 21st, 2016) that PFN is developing a Lithium and Rare Earth Division. The Company’s management team has added an additional “green metal, GM” to its existing Platinum group metals (PGM’s) division. These new age metals, Lithium, PGM’s and Rare Earths, have robust macro trends with surging demands and limited supply. Going forward, this new division will explore for the minerals needed to fuel the demand for energy storage and other core 21st Century Technologies.

Nevada the Lithium Hub

Clayton Valley is located in Esmeralda county of Nevada host to the Albemarle Corporation’s Silver Peak Lithium Mine and brine processing operations. The mine has been in operation since 1967 and remains the only brine based Lithium Producer in North America. The new project acquisition in Nevada will allow the company a project in an area that is well known for its Lithium Carbonate Production. Clayton Valley is a centralized location in Nevada with highway access, power infrastructure, water and local labor. The company’s new lithium brine project will be approximately 3.5 hours away from Tesla’s Gigafactory, which has a planned annual lithium-ion battery production capacity of 35 gigawatt-hours per year by 2020. The company’s new project is also 3 hours north of the Faraday Electric Car Factory to be operated in Las Vegas, Nevada.

Clayton Valley was one of the few locations globally known to contain commercial-grade lithium-enriched brines.

The company is planning a detailed exploration program on its Clayton Valley lithium project for upcoming exploration season.

Nevada Building a Future for Green Energy Manufacturing

The Nevada government is actively embracing the Lithium Energy market and future ventures. In March 2016 the Nevada Board gave final approval to the Faraday Futures $1 Billion dollar electric car factory in North Las Vegas. Once this plant is operating it is estimated that it will create over 4500 jobs for the area. Tesla received over $1.25 Billion in tax incentives from the Nevada government to start up their $5 Billion Giga-factory in Reno, Nevada. The Nevada government is backing the new growth in the lithium- ion battery and electric car market. Future projected market growth will also increase the need for lithium-ion batteries. At present, the Clayton Valley area produces 4% of the world’s Lithium Carbonate production.

About The Company’s Lithium Division

The company’s new Lithium Division will focus on the acquisition, exploration and development of Lithium Projects in Canada. In the United States the company will use its wholly owned U.S.A subsidiary to acquire and develop projects in active mining camps in Nevada, Arizona and California.

The recent addition of the “Lithium One Project” in southeastern Manitoba (PFN April 24th, 2016 news release) has given the company a strategic opportunity for hard rock Lithium mineralization in Canada. The project is located 8.5 kilometers south of the Tanco Mine Site, North America’s richest and longest operating hard rock mine for tantalum, lithium and cesium.

Lithium and Platinum group metal prices have improved dramatically in recent months. Lithium supplies remain in deficit relative to their demand. Both metals groups are used for the expanding worldwide automobile industry (conventional and electric). In the case of PGM’s, demand is increasing for autocatalysts, a key component for reducing toxic emissions for automotive, gasoline and diesel engines. In regards to Lithium, there is an ever increasing demand for batteries in cellphones, laptops, electric cars, solar storage, wireless charging and renewable energy products.

Durango Closes Purchase of Dianna Lake Silver Prospect, Host to Past Grab Samples as High as 2,480 Oz/ton Silver $DGO.ca

Posted by AGORACOM-JC at 1:11 PM on Thursday, April 21st, 2016

  • Announced further to its news of March 22, 2016, the Company has closed the purchase of its 100% interest in the Saskatchewan ground known as the Dianna Lake Silver Prospect by payment of $150,000
  • The Dianna Lake silver project consists of 131 hectares located 17 kilometres northwest of Uranium City, Saskatchewan
  • Host to Past Grab Samples as High as 2,480 Oz/ton Silver

Vancouver, BC / April 21, 2016 – Durango Resources Inc. (TSX.V-DGO), (the “Company” or “Durango”) announces further to its news of March 22, 2016, the Company has closed the purchase of its 100% interest in the Saskatchewan ground known as the Dianna Lake Silver Prospect by payment of $150,000.

The Dianna Lake silver project consists of 131 hectares located 17 kilometres northwest of Uranium City, Saskatchewan.

It was reported this week on April 20, 2016 in the Financial Times article, “Silver surges to best performing commodity” by Henry Sanderson, “An explosive two-week rally has made silver one of the best performing commodities this year, fueled by a surge in interest from hedge funds.”

Marcy Kiesman, CEO stated “The Financial Times article referenced above outlines the Silver commodity price surge in recent weeks and the Dianna Lake Silver Prospect was drilled prior to the recent 2011 silver price highs, therefore it is a relatively new prospect being introduced to silver players worldwide. An exploration program will be announced in the coming months and, pending adequate funding, is currently planned to include drill hole testing. Having the opportunity to re-initiate exploration on a silver prospect that has not been explored in the past fifteen years is an exciting opportunity as Durango positions for discovery.”

About the Dianna Lake Silver Prospect

Durango’s Dianna Lake Silver Prospect covers a historic area in which, from 1968 to 1969, two high-grade, primarily native silver-bearing exploration targets of between 30,000 and 50,000 tonnes grading five to 10 ounces per ton silver, approximately 600 metres apart, were determined by trench grab sample assays, according to a historic evaluation report composed for Comaplex Resources in 1980(1) *.

* Potential quantities and grades are conceptual in nature. There has been insufficient exploration to define a mineral resource and it is uncertain if further exploration will result in the target being delineated as a mineral resource.

Additionally, the main silver-bearing zone is spatially associated with a large zone of low-grade, disseminated copper-silver mineralization in which “drilling of two IP anomalies indicated approximately five million tonnes averaging 0.4 ounce per ton Ag and 0.4 per cent Cu” (undefined category historic resource estimate), according to the same report (1) **.

** A qualified person has not done sufficient work to classify the historical estimate as current mineral resources or mineral reserves and the issuer is not treating the historical estimate as current mineral resources or reserves. Further work must be carried out to verify all historic information before a resource estimate is possible.

Fourteen additional induced polarization anomalies in the historic exploration area surrounding Dianna Lake and the nearby Doug Lake remain yet undrilled, according to the Comaplex Resources report (1), four of which occur within the property boundary of Durango’s Dianna Lake silver project.

Previous work on the claims was reported in 1969, 1980 and 1998 and included diamond drill holes, trenches, and pits primarily across two zones where mineralization was identified at or near surface. One zone was reported to have five trenches exposing Ag-Cu mineralization over approximately 80 metres. Historic grab samples from Pit 1 of this zone included ounce-per-ton silver values of 2,458.4, 684.4, 647.4, 600.2, 464.2, and 454.8 ounces per ton Ag. Out of 18 grab samples, 13 samples assayed between 185.0 and 2,458.4 ounces per ton. Pit 2 grab samples returned reported highs of 298.0 and 197.0 ounce per ton Ag (out of seven samples ranging from 12.2 to 298.0 ounces per ton Ag) (1). (The Company cautions that grab samples are selective and may not be representative of the mineralization on the property.)

Analysts Expecting Higher Palladium Prices in 2016 $PFN.ca

Posted by AGORACOM-JC at 10:25 AM on Thursday, April 21st, 2016

Now that Q1 is over, it seems that analysts are a little more positive about palladium prices.

nickel price today palladium prices

Investors following the palladium market will be glad to know that there are some positive sentiments in regards to palladium prices. Palladium– despite having dipped in early April – is trading at about 0.4 percent higher than in March, with an April 15 price of $568 per troy ounce.

While the gain is nominal, it does bring with it a degree of encouragement that palladium prices will be on their way up in the short term. Prices are still 25 percent lower than in 2015, but year to date the metal has seen a 2.3 percent increase in an environment governed by weak economic data.

That said, FocusEconomics expects to see palladium prices improving in the coming quarters.

In a recent sector update, FocusEconomics highlights that March car sales in the US – a significant driver of palladium prices as palladium’s primary use is in catalytic converters – came in below expectations. While this would typically be a large strike against palladium prices increasing, a weaker US dollar urged the metal on.

“Prices are expected to rise slowly in the coming quarters. Improvements in the global economy and a supply deficit should propel steady gains.” The firm’s Consensus Forecast project shows that analysts are of the mind that palladium prices will average US$626 per troy ounce in Q4 2016. Furthermore, the consensus is that prices will rise to an average of $724 in Q4 2017.

For the most part, the analysts surveyed in the consensus “see the price of palladium rising by Q4 2016.” The disconnect, however, remains on the extent of the recovery. “For Q4 2016, the maximum price forecast is USD 698 per troy ounce, while the minimum is projected to be USD 550 per troy ounce.” the report notes.

Palladium price forecasts

Delving deeper into the outlook for palladium prices, investors in the metal might be interested to know what some of the top minds in the sector are anticipating in terms of price activity for the next quarter and end of year. Here’s a sample:

  • ABN AMRO: expects to see a Q2 2016 palladium price of $592. Meanwhile, at year end the firm expects to see prices increase to $650
  • ANZ: expects to see a Q2 2016 price slightly lower at $525. Still more modestly, the firm’s Q4 2016 price will be holding on to a continued $550.
  • BMO Capital Markets: more optimistic than ANZ, BMO sees prices for the second quarter to be averaging $575. Meanwhile, year end the firm hopes to see $600 per troy ounce.
  • JP Morgan: likely the most optimistic estimate included on the FocusEconomics report, JPM is expecting a $675 per troy ounce in Q2 prices. While the firm sees prices reaching $700 in Q3, its Q4 expectation is slightly lower at $692.

With current palladium prices at $583.75, it will be interesting to see which firms are on the mark and which have missed it.

Smart cities concept in Oman can improve efficiency: Telecom official $OMAG

Smart cities concept in Oman can improve efficiency: Telecom official

April 13, 2016 | 5:59 PM

By ERIK PRINS/[email protected]

Darren Tong, chief operating officer of Telecom Oman, said that that city planners, developers and businesses should take the opportunity to improve efficiency to reach the goal of a smart city. Photo – Supplied

Muscat: There is a lot of potential to improve efficiency in Oman by introducing the concept of smart cities, Darren Tong, chief operating officer of Telecom Oman said.

“Whatever it is what the city does, whether it’s water management, waste management, traffic management or car parks, there’s a lot of information out there about how things are wasted,” he said. He noted that currently, this information is not being connected and not analysed. “If you do that, you can find means to improve,” he said.

Tong explained that the concept of smart cities is all about reducing waste, improving time management and optimising human interactions. He said that exchanging ideas and knowledge can be made easier by improving connections between people.

“We are having trouble with meeting each other because we are stuck in traffic jams, have trouble connecting with each other because servers are down.

Also, smart technologies can help reduce waste of electricity and water. We are wasting energy because every room has an air condition while not all rooms are occupied,” he said. “Since water in Oman is desalinated and there is no electronic monitoring with electronic meters, when the water leaks, it just flows away and is wasted,” he said.

He said that digitalisation would help here, by connecting sensors with 3G technologies and a data centre absorbing all the information. The information can then be analysed to find ways to optimise the process.

Tong said that city planners, developers and businesses should take the opportunity to improve efficiency to reach the goal of a smart city. “If you identify the needs and certain areas of inefficiency, as an entrepreneur we can go and address it,” he said.

He said that Oman is in a starting stage of introducing smart cities. “Right now, nothing is connected, nothing is studied or analysed. The potential however, is to cut your energy costs by half,” he said.

“Smart city is a way for Oman to participate in the digital economy, train its human resources and take advantage of using data to make government services more efficient.”

He said that Telecom Oman, which is seeking a licence to operate as a third telecom operator in Oman, can provide the infrastructure to help stakeholders make this move towards more efficiency. He said that Telecom Oman is seeking to play a role in the development of Omagine, a new project where smart city technologies will be displayed. “This is where the technologies are showcased, tested and hopefully rolled out to the rest of the country. By 2020 we should be able to see a first version of a smart city here in Oman” he said.

He said that there is also potential for e-business to flourish in Oman.

“A lot of Omani’s are still involved with brick-and-mortar. They like to visit shops and they like to feel and hold the product,” he said. He noted that new technologies like data centres can help the industry to grow in Oman, by inviting big players in e-commerce to base their operations here.

Tong said that as a new telecom operator, it wants to be more than a provider offering phone calls and internet. “We want to be a catalyst in introducing new technologies and solutions to Oman,” he said.

He added that Telecom Oman not only wants to provide the infrastructure like fibre optic or towers, but also provide the products and services on top of it, like apps, data centres.

“Whoever wants to set up a business somewhere, we can do the mobile phone service, internet and ERP and CRS systems and other services, while the entrepreneur can focus on what he is good at,” he said.

  • Announced acquisition of 60 claims (approximately 1200 acres/484 hectares) in Clayton Valley, Esmeralda County, Nevada
  • 250 meters from Albemarle Corporation’s Silver Peak lithium mine and brine processing operations
  • Also the location of Pure Energy Minerals’ 816,000 metric tonnes Lithium Carbonate Equivalent (LCE) Inferred Resource NI 43-101 announced in July 2015
  • 3.5 hours away from Tesla’s Gigafactory, which has a planned annual lithium-ion battery production capacity of 35 gigawatt-hours per year by 2020

April 12, 2016 / Vancouver, British Columbia- Nevada Energy Metals Inc., TSX-V: BFF (OTC: SSMLF) (Frankfurt: A2AFBV) is pleased to announce the acquisition of 60 claims (approximately 1200 acres/484 hectares) in Clayton Valley, Esmeralda County, Nevada.

The Clayton Valley BFF-1 Lithium Project southern boundary lies 250 meters from Albemarle Corporation’s Silver Peak lithium mine and brine processing operations. The mine has been in operation since 1967 and remains the only brine based lithium producer in North America. It is also the location of Pure Energy Minerals’ 816,000 metric tonnes Lithium Carbonate Equivalent (LCE) Inferred Resource NI 43-101 announced in July 2015. Clayton Valley’s centralized location between Nevada and Reno and its highways, access to power, water and labor provide excellent infrastructure for mineral exploration and development. The Clayton Valley BFF-1 Lithium Project is approximately 3.5 hours away from Tesla’s Gigafactory, which has a planned annual lithium-ion battery production capacity of 35 gigawatt-hours per year by 2020.

Clayton Valley is one of the few locations globally known to contain commercial-grade lithium-enriched brine. The Valley is an internally drained closed-basin and is surrounded by mountains, hills and ridges on all sides. It contains an underground unconsolidated water bearing system (or aquifer system) which is host to lithium-enriched brines and is contained by the surrounding rock.

The decision to acquire the project was based on descriptions of geological modeling and historical drilling results (Western Geothermal Ltd) in a report authored by J.B. Hulen, PG, (July 31,2008). Mr Hulen concluded that shallow thermal-gradient drilling and lithium-exploration drilling by previous operators demonstrated that the area underlying this portion of Clayton Valley contained the valley’s highest subsurface temperatures.
