WALKER PROVIDES UPDATE FROM SLEEPER-LAPON CANYON GOLD PROJECT
Walker River Resources Corp. has provided an update to its Sleeper-Lapon Canyon gold exploration project.
The Sleeper-Lapon Canyon gold project consists of 36 claims (720 acres/292 hectares), situated about 60 kilometres south of Yerington, Nev., in the Wasuk Range easily accessible by secondary roads from the main highway (25 kilometres). A power transmission line passes within three kilometres of the property. The Sleeper-Lapon Canyon project is located within the Walker Lane shear zone, a 100-kilometre-wide structural corridor extending in a southeast direction from Reno. The past-producing historic Comstock Lode silver/gold mine is located within this trend, as is the past-producing Esmeralda/Aurora gold mine, with reported production of about one million ounces, located 30 kilometres southwest of the project.
The new Nevada Copper gold-copper mine, is located about 30 kilometres north of the project also within the Wasuk Range (Pumpkin Hollow, 981, 000 ounces gold, 34 million ounces silver, 5.4 billion pounds copper).
