Positive – WEX has identified a 3 km-long target located 1 km west of its Gravel Creek deposit. Last year, the company had identified another target 100 m east of Gravel Creek. These two targets offer potential for resource expansion. Gravel Creek, which hosts an underground, high-grade gold resource, is part of WEX’s Aura gold-silver project. Aura hosts three deposits - Gravel Creek, Doby George, and Wood Gulch - totaling over 1.3 Moz AuEq.
