DOK Project:

Boxxer has retained the services of Mira Geosciences to complete a detailed interpretation of the Total Field Airborne magnetic data collected from the DOK property in 2011.  The results of the interpretation will be used to direct the mapping and sampling portion of the proposed 2012 field exploration program.

 

Boxxer is also pleased to announce that it has executed a contract with Quantec Geosciences to perform a Titan-24 DCIP & MT geophysical survey over the two previously identified large multi-element (copper-molybdenum-gold-silver) soil geochemical anomalies (see News Release dated May 26, 2011).  The geochemical anomalies are hosted in potassic and phyllic altered intrusives and volcanics of the Stuhini group.  Mineralized intervals (historical results) of up to 0.64% copper over 41m are reported to occur with one of the geochemical anomalies. The geophysical survey is expected to commence when weather conditions (snow) allows. Contingent on the results of the geophysical survey, diamond drilling is also planned.
