Buffalo Gulch Mine

Buffalo Gulch is comprised of approximately 115 unpatented quartz lode mining claims and is located 3 miles west of Elk City, Idaho in Idaho County. (Please see the map on page 9) The claims lie within sections 17, 20 and 21, Township 29 North, Range 8 East. Elk City is approximately 55 miles east of Grangeville, Idaho. The claims are controlled through outright staking and four agreements and one underlying agreement, whereby parts of the ownership interests take the form of a leasehold interest, assignment interest or optioned interest.  The Property is located in the Orogrande Shear Zone. The Orogrande Shear Zone ("Shear Zone") features a prominent structural break in a contiguous metamorphic rock formation caused by adjacent parts of the rock formation moving past each other and parallel to the plane separating them (fault plane). About six million years ago, younger rocks were intruded along the fault plane. The intrusions then formed small dykes, sills, irregular lensoid bodies and breccias within the country rocks.
