Eagle Plains owns an unencumbered 100% interest in 541 claims (28,000 acres) comprising the Rusty Springs silver, lead, zinc and copper prospect located 280 kilometres northwest of Dawson City, Yukon.
The property is distinguished by having high-grade mineral occurrences over an area of more than 5 square kilometres. The property has been subjected to numerous exploration programs since being discovered in 1975. Significant to the 1996 drilling program was the discovery of stratabound mineralization over much of the claim area and beyond.
In 2011 Aben Resources Ltd. entered into an option agreement where Aben may earn a 100% interest in the Rusty Springs Property by making $500,000 in cash payments and issuing 1,500,000 common shares to Eagle Plains over 5 years. The property shall be subject to a three percent (3%) net smelter return royalty (“NSR”) in favour of Eagle Plains.
