2024 was a pivotal year for Benton Resources (TSX-V: BEX) and their flagship Great Burnt Project. Since our last update on BEX, the company has drilled over 18,000 metres, significantly expanding the Great Burnt and South Pond Copper-Gold Deposits. The results include high-grade intercepts that demand attention.
In a recent update, Benton reported drill results that not only unveiled a new mineralized zone but also included an impressive infill hole. This standout intercept measured 22 metres grading 7.47% copper, with an exceptional 8-metre section grading 11.93% copper (hole GB-24-49). Additionally, the South Pond zone delivered noteworthy gold results, highlighted by hole SP-24-32, which intersected 54.50 metres of 1.88 g/t gold, including a 14.00-metre section grading 2.41 g/t gold.
Why Benton Resources Stands Out:
-
Prime Jurisdiction: The Great Burnt Project is located in an area highly favourable for VMS deposits.
-
Low Risk: The project benefits from low political and social risks.
-
Expert Team: Benton boasts award-winning prospectors.
-
High-Grade Deposits: Exceptional grades underscore the project's quality.
-
Exploration Momentum: Active drilling has uncovered multiple new zones ripe for follow-up exploration.
-
Catalysts for Growth: A full year of developments ensures ongoing news flow and marketing.
-
Value Opportunity: The current stock price offers an attractive entry point.
-
Strong Leadership: A market-savvy CEO adds to investor confidence.
Looking ahead, Benton Resources is set to drill 15,000 metres in 2025. The company’s ability to rapidly link nearly 15 kilometers of strike length with new discoveries is starting to attract attention. We believe Benton won’t remain under the radar for long. This is a team to watch closely in the coming year.
