Ameriwest Critical Metals Inc. (CSE: AWCM | OTC: AWLIF | FSE: 5HV) is a highly focused mineral exploration company with diverse holdings including copper-gold prospects in Oregon, rare earth opportunities in British Columbia, and lithium holdings in Nevada and Arizona.
Our immediate focus is the recently acquired bornite-chalcopyrite copper-gold-silver property; the “Bornite Project,” in Oregon.
Ameriwest plans to fast-track the Bornite Project through exploration and permitting, with the future goal of developing a 1,000-ton-per-day underground copper mine.
The Bornite Project, Oregon
Historically proposed as an underground copper mine located 50 miles east of Salem, Oregon. In the 1990’s Plexus Resources quantified a significant mineral asset consisting of a breccia pipe deposit prospective for copper iron sulfide mineral (Cu5FeS4) also known as Bornite or “Peacock Ore” due to its iridescent blue, purple, and gold tarnish.
Xeno REE Project, British Columbia
An exploration project located in the Kechika River region of Northern British Columbia. Recent assessments characterize its potential for yttrium and heavy rare earth mineralization. The term “Xeno” frequently refers to exploration efforts focused on Xenotime, a rare earth phosphate mineral and a major source of heavy rare earth elements (HREEs).
Thompson Valley, Arizona
A prospective lithium sedimentary deposit with surface or near-surface exposures of lithium-bearing clays located in central Arizona. Historic and recent sampling indicate lithium grades similar to those found in clay deposits in Clayton Valley, Nevada. The potential exists for a significant lithium deposit, subject to exploration success.
Railroad Valley, Nevada
The Valley features closed-basin characteristics with underlying brine aquifers, and volcanic calderas in the vicinity acting as the source of sediments hosting lithium and boron. The deposit has the potential to be a long-term source of domestic critical minerals, subject to exploration success.
