COWAN BAR PLACER GOLD Location: Bannack Mining District, Dillon, Montana The Cowan Bar Placer Gold Property presents an exceptional investment opportunity in one of Montana's most historically significant gold-producing areas. This advanced exploration and potential production property is located in the renowned Bannack Mining District, just downstream from Bannack, Montana's first gold mining boomtown from the 1860s. Spanning 89.25 acres across six private parcels, the claim covers over 1 mile of Grasshopper Creek, a historically rich placer gold-producing creek. The Cowan Bar Placer is known for its untapped potential, offering investors a chance to capitalize on a district with a long history of gold production, including 500,000 ounces of gold from the Bannack district. Grasshopper Creek was the first major gold discovery site in Montana and has produced considerable amounts of placer gold in its history. The Cowan Bar property lies in the heart of this rich district, offering modern operators the potential to recover gold using contemporary, efficient methods. Key Property Features: Resource Estimates: According to a 1987 geological report, the property is estimated to hold 63,900 ounces of placer gold, derived from 3.55 million cubic yards of gold-bearing gravel. Additional cemented gravels not included in the resource calculation may provide further gold deposits. Test results from these gravels indicate gold content of 0.461 ounces per ton. Overburden & Pay Gravels: The overburden depth ranges from 2-6 feet, with more than 40 distinct pay gravel layers identified. These layers offer rich gold deposits and include a variety of materials, such as sand, sediment, river rock, and cemented gravels. The cemented gravels at depth represent a significant opportunity for additional gold recovery, especially with modern mining methods. Water Rights: The property comes with comprehensive water rights for the full output of Grasshopper Creek, providing sufficient water to support operations ranging from 1,000 yards per day to larger 10,000-yard per day mining projects. These rights are a valuable asset that ensures consistent water supply for high-volume mining operations. Scalable Operations: The Cowan Bar Placer is suitable for a range of mining operations. A small-scale project (1,000 yards per day) could be managed with a small team of 3-4 workers, utilizing basic placer equipment and optimized recovery systems. For larger operations, the property could support up to 10,000 yards per day, putting it on par with some of the largest placer mining operations in Alaska or the Yukon. Revenue Potential: A 1,000-yard per day operation could generate $50,000 to $150,000 per day in revenue, depending on gold recovery rates, market conditions, and equipment efficiency. A 10,000-yard per day operation would significantly increase these numbers, offering even more revenue potential. Mining Techniques and Technologies: The historical methods of gold recovery on the property were not efficient, particularly when dealing with flour gold and fine gold particles. However, with the introduction of modern recovery technologies like centrifugal concentrators, the extraction of these smaller particles would no longer be a challenge. Additionally, the use of commercial dredging could lower operating costs significantly, though this method would require higher initial capital investment. Historical Significance and Geology: Bannack Mining District: The Bannack district is the birthplace of gold mining in Montana. Gold was first discovered here in 1862 along Grasshopper Creek, making it the first major gold discovery in the state. In its first year of production, $600,000 worth of gold (approximately 30,000 ounces) was extracted from the creek. By 1863, the town of Bannack had a population of over 3,000 people and became the first capital of Montana Territory. The area was known for its rich placer deposits (which accounted for 75% of the districts gold production) and its lode mines (which contributed the remaining 25%). Geology of the Bannack District: The geology in the area is dominated by the Beaverhead Formation, which consists of conglomerates, sandstones, and limestones formed during the Laramide orogeny. These deposits, formed during the Late Cretaceous to early Eocene, are key to understanding the rich gold-bearing layers at Cowan Bar. Gold veins in the area formed along fractures and faults in the granodiorite intrusives and limestones. These veins are known to produce free-milling gold, making them highly desirable for placer mining operations. Cowan Bars Geological Layers: The Cowan Bar Placer property itself is characterized by multiple layers of placer deposits, including cemented gravels at depth, which are not yet fully explored. The current resource estimate does not take these deeper layers into account, which could significantly increase the amount of recoverable gold. The gold deposits at Cowan Bar have been deposited through multiple periods of sedimentation, resulting in over 40 layers of pay gravel that could be mined individually or in sequence to maximize gold recovery. Development Opportunities and Upside Potential: Small-Scale Development: A small, 1,000-yard per day operation could be initiated with a relatively low initial investment. A team of 3-4 people could run the operation with standard placer equipment and a centrifugal concentrator to optimize recovery of fine gold. Large-Scale Commercial Mining: A larger operation (up to 10,000 yards per day) would require more advanced equipment, infrastructure, and potentially commercial dredging techniques. This scale of mining could substantially increase daily revenue, making it a highly profitable venture. Additional Exploration Potential: While the property already has extensive geological data, the deeper cemented gravels have not been fully explored. Modern drilling and testing could potentially expand the gold resource by up to 5-10 times the current estimate. There is also the possibility of converting the property into a hardrock open-pit mine at depth, which would open up additional resource potential. Next Steps: Contact us today to schedule a site visit and discuss how you can secure this exceptional investment opportunity. We offer detailed geological reports, drill records, assays, and additional materials for serious investors interested in acquiring the Cowan Bar Placer Gold Property. This property is offered for sale due to the dissolution of a partnership. Lease or joint venture options are not available.

The roof and other items are in need of some repair, but the structure of the building is all there. The building could be made into living space, workspace, or storage space or all three. You can park your camper in it for the winter too. Theres lots of room on the ground level and an upper level area as well. This is not a place to live year-round however as theres too much snow and its too far in. It bears repeating, this is NOT a year-round property. Its amazing to find a building of this size up in such a remote area and in such wild country, so buy it now and enjoy the possibilities. Its a rare find and gives you lots of options for having your piece of heaven out in the mountains of Montana. Sappington Creek runs right by within 100 feet of the property on the National Forest, and it feeds into Trapper Creek which is very nearby as well. Both creeks have cutthroat trout in them for fishing and fresh mountain water right out your back door. Trapper Creek comes out of Trapper Lake which is a high mountain Lake thats only about 2 miles from the property too. It has lots of high mountain cutthroat trout in it for lots and lots of fun.

Some of the remains of the old towns of Hecla, Lion City, and Trapper City can still be found. They used to sit up in the drainages above the property where the miners worked and brought ore down to this property in hopes of striking it rich on the silver, copper, and other metals these mountains hold. Some evidence of the past mining and piles of the ore can be found on and next to the property on the National Forest, but much of the property is forested and undisturbed too. It now has a remote and quiet feel that you just want to get away to and relax. This is high elevation snowy country at 7800 feet, so dont ask about living here year-round. Its recreational property at its finest during the summer and fall, but not a place to live in the winter. The road is rough in places too. From Melrose, Montana theres about 8 miles of relatively good gravel road. From there its another approximately 5 miles of rough unmaintained county road with a short stretch of National Forest road to the property. You might consider bringing in a pickup box camper or pulling a small camper in or possibly even trailering some building materials in to fix the shop or build a cabin, but youd have to take it slow, and it would be rough. Melrose which is about 15 miles away has fuel and a place to eat. Its about 46 miles to Dillon and about 50 miles to Butte for more of the amenities and an airport there in Butte. This is an extremely rare find having such a large structure already in place and being surrounded by National Forest with all these hunting, fishing, and recreating opportunities at your fingertips along with the history and wildlife in the area as well. Youve even got several high mountain creeks right out your back door. The possibilities are endless, so dont wait.
