Northisle Copper and Gold Inc

NorthIsle Copper & Gold, Inc. engages in the exploration, acquisition, and development of copper and other precious metal properties. The company is headquartered in Vancouver, British Columbia and currently employs 17 full-time employees. The company went IPO on 2011-10-22. The company owns the North Island Project, which is a copper and gold porphyry project in Canada. The North Island Project is located near Port Hardy, British Columbia on a more than 34,000-hectare block of mineral titles 100% owned by the Company stretching 50 kilometers (km) northwest from the now closed Island Copper Mine operated by BHP Billiton. The claim block includes two defined resources at Hushamu and Red Dog, and numerous additional copper and gold porphyry targets. The Hushamu Deposit is a high-level telescoped porphyry copper-gold- molybdenum system containing a significant rhenium content. The Pemberton Hills target is within a 6.5 km long by 1.5 km thick area of high-level, advanced argillic alteration within Mesozoic-age andesitic volcanic rocks in an early-stage exploration zone. The North Island Project includes several relatively untested targets, including Northwest Expo, Goodspeed, and Macintosh.
