Prospector News Michael Fox is joined by Kit Marrs, CEO and Founder of Western Alaska Minerals (TSX-V:WAM). The company looks like it is a newcomer as it only went public in November of 2021, the management team has worked on this property since 2010, so the project is much more advanced than most newcomers. We discuss Alaska as an underdeveloped area with much potential. We also discuss how being on state land eases the permitting challenges for the company Vs being on Federal Land.

Western Alaska Minerals want to be a part of the next chapter in the long mining history of Alaska. We discuss the Waterpum Creek deposit as well as the Illinois Creek deposits. The planned drill programs are to step out these 2 deposits through the Warm Springs and LH target Zones to illustrate that there is a linkage between these 2 deposits.

About Western Alaska Minerals

Our mission is to advance a mineable and scalable CRD, ultimately reshaping the mineral landscape of western Alaska and establishing a new CRD district.

WAM’s CRD system encompasses the (past producing) Illinois Creek gold-silver mine, the Waterpump Creek high-grade silver-lead-zinc deposit, open to the north, and the Honker gold prospect. Twenty-five kilometers northeast of the Illinois Creek CRD lies the Round Top copper and the TG North CRD prospects. All prospects were originally discovered by Anaconda Minerals Co. in the early 1980’s. WAM’s 100% owned claims cover 73,120 acres (114.25 square miles or 29,591 hectares), approximately 45 km east of an ocean barge-compatible section of the Yukon River. Since 2010, WAM, along with its precursor company, Western Alaska Copper & Gold, reassembled the Anaconda land package and has been engaged in exploring the district.

Headquartered in both Alaska and Arizona, WAM brings together a team of seasoned professionals with a shared vision of pioneering new frontiers in mineral exploration. Our strategic approach is underpinned by cutting-edge technology, innovative techniques, and a deep understanding of the geological intricacies of the region.
