Western Exploration Inc (TSX-V:WEX, OTCQX:WEXPF) CEO Darcy Marud shares insights on the Nevada-focused explorer's journey and its flagship Aura Project with Proactive's Angela Harmantas at PDAC 2024.
Celebrating 25 years, Western Exploration transitioned from a private entity to public in 2022, marking a significant phase with the Aura Project in northeastern Nevada.
Marud details the groundbreaking high-grade gold and silver findings that have reshaped the company's future, with gold grades reaching up to 257 grams per tonne and silver nearly three kilograms. These results, adjacent to existing resources, signal a promising expansion and potential for the Aura Project.
Marud also explains the exploration-driven approach of Western Exploration, the significance of recent drill results and metallurgy studies, and the optimistic outlook despite the need for additional market funding.
He also discusses the transformative impact of January's findings on the company and the planned drilling phase set to commence in late June.
