Yukon Zinc took advantage of the low metal prices in 1999-2002 and acquired a broad portfolio of advanced exploration properties. During this period it acquired a 60% initial interest in the Wolverine Joint Venture and has subsequently increased its interest to 100%. Yukon Zinc also has a large land holding in the Finlayson District. In 2003, it acquired a 60% joint venture interest in the Logan deposit.
These reserves and resources are open to expansion as exploration continues.
