Kudz Ze Kayah

Canada
Geophysics and Geochemistry Working Together

The Kudz Ze Kayah VMS deposit is located in the Yukon, Canada. The deposit is associated with felsic volcanics.

Anomalous regional geochemistry led to the discovery of a massive sulphide boulder grading 9% Zn.

A Time Domain EM survey indicated the presence of a conductor 1 km to the south of the sulphide boulder.

FDEM (HLEM) and magnetic surveys located a strong conductor coincident with a large magnetic anomaly.

These results were used to locate the first drill hole which intercepted a 7.5 m and a 15 m mineralized zone.

The deposit also produces a Bouguer anomaly response of 1.1 to 1.5 mGals.
