Thor in 3D.
Seeing the system as one connected volume.

Geology, geophysics and drilling are integrated to reconstruct the mineral system beneath the surface - revealing how the known deposit relates to structure, alteration and deeper targets.

01 · Seeing the unseen

A subsurface scan built from indirect signals.

Taranis uses three-dimensional modelling around the existing NI 43-101 Mineral Resource to understand the spatial relationship between the deposit and the broader Thor mineral system.

The imaging analogy

Geoscience works like an MRI or CT scan of the Earth.

Medicine and exploration share the same fundamental challenge: the interior cannot be observed directly. Both disciplines transmit or measure physical fields, record how materials change those signals, reconstruct a three-dimensional volume and rely on specialists to interpret the result.

At Thor, that interpretation helps geologists position the known mineralization against folds, intrusive rocks, alteration, conductive bodies and concealed terrain.

Model status Interpretive geological model - not a Mineral Resource estimate
01

Spatial context

Place the deposit, structures and geophysical responses within the same coordinate system.

02

Target precision

Use converging evidence to refine drill placement before committing field capital.

03

System scale

Test whether surface geology and deep physical signatures form one connected framework.

02 · Imaging workflow

From physical field to geological interpretation.

Each model begins with a measurable physical response. The value comes from connecting that response to mapped geology, drill core and structural context.

  1. 01
    Transmit or observe

    Use electromagnetic, magnetic or other physical fields to interrogate the subsurface.

  2. 02
    Material response

    Rock type, alteration and conductivity modify the field in characteristic ways.

  3. 03
    Record signals

    Airborne and ground sensors measure the returning or naturally varying response.

  4. 04
    Invert the data

    Algorithms reconstruct a three-dimensional physical-property model.

  5. 05
    Interpret geology

    Specialists compare the model with drilling, mapping and the evolving system concept.

Signals across rugged terrain

Imaging extends the field of view beyond individual drill holes.

Geophysical surveys create continuous datasets across areas where direct observation is limited. They do not identify ore on their own; they help map contrasts that can be tested against geology.

03 · The Thor 3D atlas

Read the mineral system layer by layer.

These 11 lenses move from the district's structural foundation through mineralization, intrusive activity, geophysical evidence and surface expression.

01 Foundation

Host Rocks

Broadview and Sharon Creek rocks preserve the structures, alteration and permeability contrasts that shaped mineralization.

Explore layer
02 Structure

Silver Cup Anticline

The district-scale fold provides the structural backbone for historic mines and the Thor deposit.

Explore layer
03 Mineralization

Epithermal Veins

Quartz-carbonate, polymetallic veins form the near-surface mineralized expression of the system.

Explore layer
04 Intrusive system

Lamprophyre

Steep, volatile-rich dykes crosscut the deposit and provide evidence of deeper magmatic pathways.

Explore layer
05 Alteration

Lamprophyre Alteration

Magnesium- and iron-rich halos create mappable mineralogical, magnetic and resistivity contrasts.

Explore layer
06 Deep conductivity

North & South Tusks

Two deep, low-resistivity bodies wrap beneath the epithermal deposit and crosscut folded host rocks.

Explore layer
07 Geophysical evidence

EM Anomalies

Conductivity departures help locate concealed structures, altered rocks and features requiring geological testing.

08 Deep engine

I-1 Intrusive

A deep, resistive, circular feature inferred from MT data and intrusive fragments observed in drill core.

Explore layer
09 Intrusive chemistry

Carbonatite

Carbonate-rich material associated with lamprophyre provides evidence of volatile-rich intrusive processes.

Explore layer
10 Vector mineral

Fuchsite

Chromium-rich green mica marks focused fluid-rock interaction and can help refine structural interpretation.

Explore layer
11 Concealed terrain

Rockslides

Transported mineralized material and concealed bedrock make large landslide complexes an important exploration layer.
