Hallam Township Kelly Prospect Copper Claim – A 2-cell copper prospect with 1960s drilling in Hallam Township, Sudbury–Espanola area, Ontario.

This is a 2-cell Ontario mining claim over the Kelly (Hallam) copper prospect. Seven holes drilled in 1967–68 cut narrow copper veins 1–3 ft wide (selected results 2.5–5.8% Cu). The 1968 report concluded that the zone was delimited by the drilling and too small to support a mining operation. There is no resource estimate. Part of the claim overlies privately owned surface, and surface rights are not included.

Quick facts: 

Location: Hallam Township, Sudbury–Espanola corridor, Ontario

Access: About 10 km (6 miles) west-southwest of Espanola on all-weather secondary roads, then a short walk from the road to the historical drill site (1968 assessment report).

Claim type and count: 1 mining claim (2 cells)

Hectares: 44.8 ha

Claim number: 1044835 (Active)

Due date: 2028-04-28 (MLAS)

Price: $48,000 CAD (offers to $42,000 for a fast close); $2,000 deposit - Estimated yearly cost to keep: Year 1 is free. The first $400-per-cell assessment work has to be filed by the claim’s due date (2028-04-28), and the same amount is due every year after that: 2 cells × $400 = $800.00 per year (verify with MLAS; Ontario mostly expects real exploration work, and paying cash instead of work is only allowed in limited cases).

This 2-cell contiguous mineral claim package is located in Hallam Township, Ontario, directly on the Kelly Prospect (MDI41I04NW00033), a documented copper showing southwest of Espanola. The historical showing and the 1967–68 drill holes are recorded in the north part of Lot 7, Concession 2, Hallam Township, and the drill-hole symbols in MLAS plot within the claim. Part of the claim overlies privately owned surface in Lot 7, Concession 3. The claim holder has given that surface owner the notice of claim registration required by section 46 of the Mining Act. Surface rights are not included with the claim.

Historical Work (historical, not NI 43-101, not current)

• 1967–68 drilling (Consolidated Bellekeno Mines Ltd.): 7 diamond drill holes totalling 1,963 ft tested a quartz breccia zone with chalcopyrite.

• Selected historical copper results (narrow samples, 1–3 ft):

  • Hole 1: 3.30% Cu over 3 ft and 2.86% Cu over the next 3 ft (quartz breccia)

  • Hole 2: 2.46% Cu over 3 ft in a vein

  • Hole 3: 5.79% Cu over 2 ft, 3.63% Cu over 1 ft and 5.58% Cu over 2 ft in narrow quartz-calcite veins (gold not assayed). Hole 4: 0.02% Cu.

  over 2 ftMineralization: narrow quartz breccia and quartz-calcite veins with chalcopyrite and pyrrhotite. The 1968 report estimated a zone about 100 ft long, 3 ft wide and 120 ft deep averaging over 3% Cu, and stated that it is too small to support a mining operation. No gold values of importance were returned, and no nickel assays are recorded.

• Geophysics: a 1966 self-potential survey (Keevil Mining Group) recorded an anomaly over the showing that did not extend beyond the trenched area; no further work was recommended.

• Work history: no later drilling or resource work appears in the assessment files reviewed (latest is 1968).
