Faro is a Sedimentary Exhalative (SEDEX) Pb-Zn deposit located in Yukon.
Initial exploration lead to the discovery of a geochemical anomaly.
A magnetic anomaly coincided with the geochemical anomalies.
The Faro #1 deposit was best outlined by a gravity survey, where both magnetic and geochemical anomalies coincided.
A 2.8 mGal anomaly coincided with the thickest section of the ore body.
Preliminary calculations using the gravity results suggest a mass of 44 MMT. It was later proven to contain about 46 MMT.
