GoldHaven Resources Uncovers Significant Mineral Zonation at Magno Project in British Columbia
VANCOUVER, British Columbia – GoldHaven Resources Corp. has announced a major breakthrough in its exploration efforts at the Magno Project located in the Cassiar Terrane of northwestern British Columbia. The company's comprehensive geological analysis has revealed a distinct property-scale porphyry-related mineral zonation pattern that significantly enhances the project's mineral potential and validates historical findings.
Comprehensive Geological Analysis Reveals Promising Patterns
Through integrated geological mapping, systematic sampling, and detailed geochemical analysis, GoldHaven has identified what appears to be a classic porphyry-related metal zoning system. This discovery supports the presence of an intrusion-driven mineral system featuring stacked mineralization targets including copper-gold, silver-lead-zinc, tungsten-skarn, and various critical-mineral deposits.
The findings not only confirm historical mineralization data but also substantially expand the modern geochemical dataset available for the property. This advancement strengthens the evolving genetic model for the Magno Project and provides a more robust framework for future drill-targeting strategies.
Key Mineralization Highlights Across the Property
The property-scale metal zonation strongly supports a porphyry source model, with proximal copper-gold-silver mineralization and distal silver-lead-zinc mineralization patterns. Historical silver-lead-zinc mineralization has been verified at both the Magno and D Zones, while tungsten mineralization has been confirmed at the Kuhn and Dead Goat areas, consistent with high-temperature skarn systems.
Notable assay results include copper values reaching up to 6,660 parts per million at Magno, with elevated copper concentrations found within granite formations, suggesting a magmatic source origin for the copper and associated metals. The company also identified exceptionally high bismuth values up to 10,000 ppm and tellurium values up to 67 ppm, which serve as important indicators of structural fluid pathways and high-temperature vectors within the mineral system.
Strategic Geological Setting and Project Rationale
GoldHaven was initially drawn to the Magno Property due to its favorable geological characteristics, including Cretaceous-age granitic intrusions adjacent to major thrust faults. This geological setting is commonly associated with productive porphyry and skarn mineral systems. The project area hosts historical silver-lead-zinc and tungsten occurrences, structurally controlled molybdenum-copper porphyry stocks, and mineralized horizons interpreted as part of a broader intrusive "plumbing system" within the Cassiar mineral belt.
The company's recent work has focused on verifying historical surface samples while simultaneously building a comprehensive, property-wide geochemical framework to refine system-scale interpretations and guide future exploration efforts.
Detailed Metal Results and Critical Minerals Potential
The highest silver, lead, and zinc grades occur at the Magno and D Zones, confirming the strength of replacement-style mineralization. Additional zinc anomalies have been identified at Kuhn (up to 13.8% zinc) and Dead Goat (up to 8.37% zinc). Copper values reach significant levels across multiple zones, with up to 1,760 ppm copper sampled directly within intrusive rocks on the property.
Tungsten mineralization at Kuhn and Dead Goat supports the presence of a high-temperature skarn and porphyry-related fluid system, while localized gold mineralization occurs within proximal copper-silver zones. The company has also identified strong bismuth and tellurium anomalies, interpreted as high-temperature pathfinder elements linked to deep fluid pathways and structural corridors.
Additional findings include antimony values peaking at Magno (up to 2,120 ppm) and elevated indium associated with zinc mineralization, further reinforcing the project's critical-minerals potential. These results position the Magno Project as a significant exploration target with multiple mineralization styles and valuable metal associations.
The discovery of this property-scale mineral zonation represents a substantial advancement in understanding the Magno Project's geology and mineralization potential. GoldHaven's systematic approach to verification and analysis has created a solid foundation for future exploration and development activities in this promising region of British Columbia.
