Auric Gold & Minerals, Inc.

A Company Founded to Acquire, Explore, and Develop Poly-metallic Gold Deposits

Auric Gold & Minerals, Inc.


Auric Minerals was formed on June 29, 2009 by filing articles of incorporation with the Nevada Secretary of State. Company purpose is to locate and/or acquire mineral claims on property where there is geological potential to develop measured and indicated mineral resources. The Company will also invest strategically in other companies/projects to meet its objectives of developing measured and indicated resources. Auric Gold & Minerals Project 1 is to locate claims at a site in northwestern Nevada near an area where mine development was first initiated in the early 1900s. Subsequent to that a mine was developed in the 1950s. Several mining companies did exploration on adjacent lands in the 1950s and 1960s, and several exploration companies are currently active in nearby areas.

Whitney & Whitney, Inc. was involved in an exploration program in the area in the late 1990s and early 2000s.

Minimal work has been done on this prospect since the previous exploration program was cancelled in the early 2000s.
The core target area is large, approximately 7.5 square miles or 4,800 acres. Approximately 240 lode mining claims will be required to cover this area. Total project area could ultimately exceed 16 square miles or 10,240 acres. Approximately 512 lode mining claims will be required to cover this area. Other exploration companies are now active in the area and so getting the project started is time critical.

The Exploration Target is a multi-mineral(poly-metallic occurrence that is expected to contain gold, copper, zinc, silver, molybdenum, and iron oxide(magnetite iron ore) as components with ready markets. While there are no measured resources in the target area, Whitney & Whitney, Inc. believes that there is room in the target area for a deposit in the size range of 100 million tons to 500 million tons. Gross in place value is expected to be in the range of $20 to $25 per ton of mineralized material. The target area is in a region in Nevada where several mineral deposits in this size range have already been found and measured. The region in which Project 1 is located presents several opportunities to participate in developing large scale resources.

Whitney & Whitney, Inc. has acquired and compiled technical information that is specific to the target area.

Geologic Map information.


Geochemical sample data and maps. Geophysical data and maps. The data indicate coincident anomalies that provide solid technical support to indicate that a large deposit containing the indicated minerals could be present at the target location.

Project 1 will be developed in stages. Development work will consist of drilling, geochemical sampling, geophysical studies, metallurgical studies and mineral economics studies. Stage 1 is to locate the claims, perform additional geophysics surveys, and drill 6 to 8 reverse circulation rotary holes to gather third dimension geological information. Stage 1 work could take up to a year to complete. First year budget is $1 to $2 million. Stage 2 work will be planned and budgeted based on stage 1 results. In year one additional projects are expected to be identified.
