The general geology and layout of the Elkhorn property follows the mapped Idahna and Park lode ore bodies and encompasses the apexes of same as understood by current geological descriptions.

The Elkhorn is possibly the largest, and most important mine in North America and contains millions in documented, blocked reserves of gold, silver and copper. There is also molybdenum and platinum that have been noted. The current blocked reserves represent only a small portion of the inferred reserves which are calculated to be worth billions of dollars in silver and gold. The production of copper and molybdenum is not calculated but will also bring substantial income.
