Yukon Metals is drilling into North America's next critical mineral frontier, and CEO Rory Quinn joins Kitco Mining’s Paul Harris to outline what could be a major discovery cycle in the making. With assays pending across three high-impact copper, gold, and silver projects in the Yukon, the company is moving aggressively into its next exploration phase.

At Star River, Quinn reports surface samples of 101 g/t gold and 11,000 g/t silver, taken just steps from helicopter drop points. The site also benefits from all-weather road access, positioning it for rapid development.

At Birch, a 1.4-kilometer gold-in-soil anomaly includes skarn in every drill hole across 750 meters, with up to 0.99 g/t gold and 0.24% copper—a structure Quinn believes could signal an intact porphyry system. At the AZ project, just six kilometers off the Alaska Highway, sampling has revealed grades up to 3.5% copper, with new targets returning over 1% Cu and 5 g/t Au.

Backed by the Berdahl family, mining heavyweight Keith Neumeyer, and top-tier institutional capital, Yukon Metals has raised C$26 million since 2024, and is set to close this season with C$9–10 million in the bank.

With assays expected through early 2025 and Class 3 permits underway, Quinn confirms Yukon Metals is gearing up for resource drilling and tens of thousands of meters in 2025.
