Mineral exploration & development
We publish the block model. Then we let you move the price.
The Anvil Zone resource, interpolated from every assay we have drilled and rendered block by block. Drag the cost and price sliders below and watch which of it is actually ore.

Anvil Zone| Q1 | Assay results, holes AZ-013 to AZ-018 (step-out to the north plunge) | Pending |
| Q2 | Updated Anvil Zone resource block model, independent estimate | Scheduled |
| Q2 | Preliminary Economic Assessment, Anvil Zone | Scheduled |
| Q3 | Metallurgical test work, variability program | In progress |
| Q3 | Maiden drill program, Fallow Creek | Permitting |
| Q4 | Annual general meeting | Scheduled |
Every block below is inverse-distance-weighted from the assays in our twelve-hole drill pattern. Move the cost, price and recovery sliders and the model recolours in real time: everything at or above the resulting cut-off grade is lit as ore, everything below it fades to a waste shell.
This browser has no WebGL2, so the block model is not drawn. The figures beside it are unaffected — they come from the same interpolation, not the picture.
Drag to orbit. Every block shown is a real inverse-distance-weighted estimate, not an illustration of one.
A small team, chosen for having actually done this before rather than for a résumé that reads well in a deck.
Mara Selby
President & Chief Executive Officer
Twenty years in exploration and mine development across three continents; led the discovery team behind two mines that are still producing today before founding Lode.
Damon Achterberg, P.Geo
VP Exploration
Registered professional geologist; has run the Anvil Zone drill program personally from the first hole to the current resource, and signs off every assay batch himself.
Priya Nandakumar, CFA
Chief Financial Officer
Former mining-sector equity analyst; built the financing structure behind two prior venture-exchange listings before moving to the operating side.
Otieno Kimathi
Independent Chair
Thirty years in mine operations and closure planning; chairs the technical committee and personally reviews the Sable Creek closure obligations each quarter.

Three properties at three different stages, on the theory that a single-asset company is a single-outcome bet and we would rather not be one.
Past producer, care and maintenance
Sable Creek
A past-producing underground mine, on care and maintenance since 1971, being re-examined for a modern restart with current drilling and metallurgy standards.
Early-stage exploration
Fallow Creek
A copper-gold porphyry target defined by a 4.2 km soil-geochemical anomaly and a coincident induced-polarisation chargeability high. No drilling yet.
Advanced exploration, PEA-stage
The Anvil Zone
Our flagship: a shear-hosted gold zone drilled on a 12-hole pattern, carrying the live resource block model on this site.
Sable Creek is on care and maintenance because we treat closure as a standing obligation, not a line item for the last year of a mine's life. The same discipline is written into the Anvil Zone permitting from the start.
