Rory Quinn, CEO of Yukon Metals, discusses the company’s fully funded 2025 exploration plans at The Mining Investment Event 2025. With $17 million in the treasury and a $7 million exploration budget, Yukon Metals is aggressively advancing three high-potential projects: Star River, AZ, and Birch.
These assets were originally held by the Birdall family—best known for founding Snowline Gold—and now form the foundation for Yukon Metals' strategy to discover significant gold, silver, copper, and critical metals deposits in the Yukon.
🔹 Star River Project – 4,000m of drilling planned
• Surface samples include up to 12,000 g/t silver and 101 g/t gold
• Targeting a gold-bearing manto zone beneath high-grade silver veins
🔹 AZ Project – 2,000m of drilling + IP/MAG/Gravity surveys
• Historical showings up to 10.3% copper
• Located just 6 km from the Alaska Highway
🔹 Birch Project – 3,000m of drilling
• A 1.4km-long gold-in-soil anomaly grading up to 0.99 g/t Au
• Believed to host an intact copper-gold porphyry system
Yukon Metals is capitalizing on the territory’s immense but underexplored geological potential with strong infrastructure access, drill-ready targets, and a strategy built on scale, grade, and discovery upside.
