Overview

About the project

Ditton is a placer gold project of 21 claims along the Ditton River, in southern Québec near Mont Mégantic. The claims lie north of the Ditton project of Beauce Gold Fields (Champs d'Or en Beauce).

MRB's targets are old river channels and the confluence of two tributaries, identified on shaded-relief imagery along the river: settings where placer gold can accumulate.

Regional context

Regional geological context

Information on neighbouring properties, reported by other companies. These are not MRB results, and mineralization on neighbouring properties is not necessarily indicative of mineralization on Ditton.

  • Up to 2 g/m³ Au

    Ditton project (Beauce Gold Fields)

    On its Ditton project, south of the MRB claims, Beauce Gold Fields reports grades of up to 2 g/m³ Au recovered from dredged sand pits, and presents the project as a potential placer gold producer.
