Thunderstruck Resources is a Canadian mining exploration company with highly prospective Precious and Base Metals projects on the main island of Viti Levu, Fiji. The Company provides investors with exposure to a diverse portfolio of assets rich in copper, gold, silver and zinc in a politically safe and stable jurisdiction.

Fiji

Fiji is located on the Pacific Ocean’s Ring of Fire which contains many of the world’s major copper and gold deposits including Porgera, Lihir and Grasberg. One of the most developed economies in the Pacific, Fiji is served by a mining-friendly government, and a reasonable royalty (3-5% gross profits) and tax structure (20% corporate).

Fiji is close to Asian markets and has excellent infrastructure including a deep water port and hydroelectric dam.

There are several mining and exploration companies operating on the island. 

Newmont’s (formerly Newcrest’s) Namosi is in development with 6.3M Tonnes Copper and 6.93M Oz. Gold (1.8 Billion Tonnes @ 0.35% Cu + 0.11 g/t Au Measured & Indicated; Newcrest Mineral Resource Update, June 2023).

Lion One Metals’ Tuvatu Gold Mine is in production with Indicated Resources of 1.1 million tonnes at 8.17 g/t Gold (294,000 ounces gold), and Inferred Resources of 1.3 million tonnes at 10.6 g/t Gold (445,000 ounces gold).

The Vatukoula Gold Mine has been operating for 80 years, producing in excess of 7 million ounces of gold.

Thunderstruck Properties

Thunderstruck’s 100% owned Fijian property portfolio is approximately 300 square km encompassing four assets–the Rama copper/gold porphyry, the Liwa high-grade precious metals asset, and two zinc/copper volcanic massive sulphide (VMS) prospects, Korokayiu and Nakoro.

The large Rama copper/gold porphyry system appears to be an analog to Newmont’s Namosi porphyry 30km to the west and includes a large system of porphyry clusters discovered by Thunderstruck, including Senikura to the south.

The Liwa gold/silver prospect is 6km southeast of Rama and may represent the gold rich surface expression of Thunderstruck’s large porphyry district.

The Korokayiu and Nakoro copper-zinc volcanic massive sulphide (VMS) properties returned high-grade copper and zinc intercepts from historical and confirmation drilling.

All four assets are contiguous with road access throughout this regional scale copper/gold district.

Thunderstruck trades on the Toronto Venture Exchange (TSX-V) under the symbol “AWE”, and on the (OTC) under symbol "THURF".
