BTU's main asset covers 19,723 hectares (ha) and is contiguous with, and surrounds the Dixie project, which is owned by Great Bear Resources Ltd (CVE:GBR) (OTCQX:GTBAF) (FRA:0G6A).
In March, BTU announced that it had struck a deal with GoldON Resources Ltd (CVE:GLD) (OTCMKTS:NCMBF) (FRA:6NR2) to earn up to 80% of the neighboring Pakwash North property, which sits next to the east and southeast boundaries of the Dixie Halo asset.
BTU Metals said investors are encouraged to view a new video with company personnel discussing the outcome of the past 12 months of geological work and interpretations as well as the rationale for the drilling that is now underway.
