Lepreau district

District Overview

Lepreau District

An emerging copper-gold-silver-antimony corridor along the Bay of Fundy, built around an interpreted IOCG mineral system — consolidated in a single year of disciplined staking, and advancing into active exploration and drilling.

Assembled from 9,555 to 26,952 hectares in one year of disciplined staking — previously fragmented ground now under single-holder ownership, and still growing.

On the Bay of Fundy, Beside a Deep-Water Port

The district runs across southern New Brunswick west of the City of Saint John — the province's second-largest city — and roughly 30 km from the U.S. border, with the properties strung between the Bay of Fundy and the Trans-Canada Highway. Few exploration addresses in eastern Canada sit this close to highway, rail, grid power, a deep-water port and an international airport.

Highway & rail

Trans-Canada Highway 1 and Highway 7 north to Fredericton (~110 km), with regional rail for field logistics.

Deep-water port

Port of Saint John, plus two airports including one international.

Grid & nuclear power

Regional grid with the Point Lepreau nuclear station nearby.

~30 km to U.S.

Close to the border and a skilled regional workforce.

A Mining-Friendly Jurisdiction on a Continental Gold Trend

Beyond infrastructure, the district sits within the Appalachian continental-scale gold trend, where major deposits cluster along deep-seated faults at terrane boundaries. The Company cites regional analogues of similar age, structure, lithology and mineralogy — Clarence Stream (Galway), Queensway (New Found Gold) and Fosterville (Agnico Eagle) — with large untested ground remaining along the same structures.

Regional context — the Appalachian gold trend through the northern Appalachians.

Established jurisdiction

Competitive royalties and tax rates in a recognized Canadian mining region.

Low operating cost

Low-cost drilling and operating expenses with a skilled regional workforce.

Appalachian gold trend

Regional mineralization described over more than 40 km, indicating a large-scale system.

What Is an IOCG System?

The Company's thesis is simple: the district's four properties are not four separate ideas. They appear to be parts of the same iron-oxide-copper-gold (IOCG) and magmatic copper-gold system running west to east across southern New Brunswick.

Porphyry and IOCG deposits: common neighbors — simplified deposit model
Simplified porphyry & IOCG deposit model, for illustration. IOCG-style mineralization on A.I.S. properties is not yet confirmed.

IOCG-Style System

Hematite- and magnetite-bearing zones with stockwork veining and intrusion-associated magnetite — the diagnostic signature of the IOCG family.

Structurally Controlled

Copper-gold ± antimony and silver localized along crustal-scale shear and fault structures at terrane boundaries.

Shared Targeting Signature

Magnetic-low anomalies over the same gabbroic / granodioritic / sheared host rocks recur across the corridor — one repeatable model for the whole district.
