In July 2000 Eagle Plains staked a prominent mineralized structure in south-eastern British Columbia known as the Iron Range. Seventy-four claim units covering 30km of surface expression were secured immediately after crown grants held for some 70 years had reverted. Past work on the Iron Range deposits was directed toward the considerable iron oxide resource and consisted of trenching and very shallow (20m depth) diamond drilling in the area along the Iron Range fault zone. Ongoing work by Eagle Plains Resources Ltd. is focused on exploring the potential of the Iron Range fault zone and surrounding area as a conduit and host for both Iron-oxide-Cu-Au (IOCG) mineralization and sedimentary exhalative (SEDEX) Ag-Pb-Zn mineralization. Eagle Plains has continued property acquisition in the area of Iron Range Mountain and currently has title to 191 units (11,540 acres). A well developed transportation and power corridor lie at the southern end of the IR and DELI claims, where a new high pressure gas pipeline and a high voltage hydro-electric line follow the CPR mainline and Highway 3 south. The rail line provides efficient access to the Teck/Cominco Ltd. smelter in Trail, B.C.
