ok. at least we're down in the right area now. Agree about the deposit type. And frankly I don't care. Look at underworld. Or Western Copper Corporation’s Casino Cu-Au-Mo porphyry deposit (4.4 billion lbs Cu, eight million oz Au and 475 million lbs of Mo, contained in a resource of approximately one billion tonnes) that is much closer then the finds near dawson. OR SULFIDES!

The Tintina Gold Belt includes such large gold deposits as Pogo (3.6 M ozs P & P reserves), Fort Knox (3.8 M ounces P & P reserves, 1.7 M ozs M & I resources), True North, Donlin Creek (29.3 M ozs Au Proven & Probable reserves, 6.0 M ozs Au Measured & Indicated resources) and Shotgun.

The Dawson Range Mineral Belt in west-central Yukon has historically been recognized as a
125-kilometre northwest-trending corridor of mineral deposits from the Mount Nansen epithermal goldsilver deposit in the southeast to the Casino porphyry copper-gold-molybdenum deposit to the northwest. The 2008 discovery of the White Gold property has extended the belt a further 50 kilometres to the northwest and a number of additional gold occurrences continue along the trend a further 75 kilometres to the Yukon-Alaska border. If one follows this same general trend, the Pogo deposit is encountered in Alaska approximately 125 kilometres from the border. Mineralization styles within the Dawson Range Mineral Belt consists of porphyries, epithermal veins and breccias, skarns, structurally hosted veins and breccias to name a few, plus placer
gold deposits in many of the creeks draining the belt.
