About Beauce Gold Fields
Beauce Gold Fields is a gold exploration company
focused on placer to hard rock exploration in the Beauce region of
Southern Quebec. The Company’s flagship property is the
St-Simon-les-Mines Gold project site of Canada’s first gold rush
which pre-dates the Yukon Klondike. The Beauce region hosted
some of the largest historical placer gold mines in Eastern North
America that were active from 1860s to the 1960s It produced the
largest gold nuggets in Canadian mining history (50oz to 71oz)
Comprising 152 contiguous claims and 7 real
estate lots, the project area contains a six kilometer long placer
channel consisting of an unconsolidated gold-bearing auriferous
units of a lower saprolite and an upper brown diamictite. The
Company has calculated a Gold Exploration Target for the entire
historical placer channel ranges between 61,000
ounces (2,200,000 m3 @ 0.87g Au/m3) and 366,000
ounces* (2,200,000 m3 @ 5.22 g Au/m3). Source: Beauce July

The Company has identified a major Fault Line
that coincides with an interpreted fault structure across the
property. Evidence suggests the erosion of the Fault Line as a
probable source of the historical placer gold channel.
