EraNova confirms Ruby Creek property nearing key PEA milestone

EraNova Metals CEO Meredith Eades joined Steve Darling from Proactive to provide an update on the company’s Ruby Creek Project, a large-scale asset that combines a past-producing-stage molybdenum development project with significant polymetallic exploration potential. Eades explained that the 30,000-hectare property is anchored by a substantial molybdenum deposit that had previously advanced through feasibility studies, permitting, and into the construction phase before being halted during the 2008 global financial crisis. As a result, the project benefits from extensive legacy work, including approximately 70,000 metres of historical drilling, existing infrastructure, and a wealth of technical data that provides a strong foundation for redevelopment. The company is now focused on updating the economic profile of the molybdenum asset and is in the final stages of preparing a preliminary economic assessment (PEA) based on a 2022 mineral resource estimate. Eades indicated that the study is expected within the next four to eight weeks and could underscore what the company sees as a disconnect between its current market valuation—approximately $7 million—and the scale and potential of the Ruby Creek project. In addition to advancing the molybdenum opportunity, EraNova is actively exploring multiple high-grade targets across the broader property. At the Lakeview target area, recent sampling returned grades of up to 257 grams per tonne gold and 3,660 grams per tonne silver. Eades noted that the presence of multiple vein structures suggests the potential for a larger, continuous mineralized system at depth. Further upside is being evaluated at the Silver Surprise target, where a mini bulk sample yielded grades of 4,200 grams per tonne silver and achieved 95% recovery through direct smelting. According to Eades, these metallurgical results point to the possibility of a low-cost, high-margin extraction process, which could enhance the economic attractiveness of the project. Looking ahead, EraNova Metals plans to advance a comprehensive exploration program across Ruby Creek, including continued prospecting, refinement of high-priority targets, and drill testing during the upcoming field season. With both a near-term development catalyst in the PEA and strong exploration upside, the company is positioning Ruby Creek as a multi-faceted asset with district-scale potential in northern British Columbia. #proactiveinvestors #eranovametals #tsxv #nova #otcqb #stxpf #mining #RubyCreek #RuffnerTarget #BritishColumbiaMining #CopperGold #Porphyry #MineralExploration #HighGrade #Geology #Geochemistry #Petrography #MiningDiscovery #ResourceDevelopment #ExplorationUpdate #JuniorMining
