At VRIC 2026, we interviewed Tara Christie, President and CEO of Banyan Gold (TSXV: BYN). She elaborated on the Company’s recent developments and outlined its next steps. Banyan Gold Corp. is focused on advancing and de-risking its AurMac Gold Project in Yukon, Canada. The project hosts 7.7 million ounces of gold resources and is located in one of Canada’s newest and rapidly growing mining districts.
The AurMac Project hosts structurally controlled, intrusion-related gold mineralization and is situated in the Mayo Mining District in central Yukon, approximately 40 kilometres north of the community of Mayo. The project is adjacent to the Keno Hill Silver District operated by Hecla Mining Company (formerly Alexco Resource Corp.). AurMac comprises two deposits: the Airstrip Deposit and the Powerline Deposit. The project benefits from excellent infrastructure, with the main Yukon highway providing primary access, three-phase power lines, an existing Yukon Energy Corp. substation, and cellular network coverage.
About Banyan Banyan’s primary asset, the AurMac Project is located in the Traditional Territory of First Nation of Na-Cho Nyäk Dun, in Canada’s Yukon Territory. The current Mineral Resource Estimate (“MRE”) for the AurMac Project has an effective date of June 28, 2025 and comprises an Indicated Mineral Resource of 2.274 million ounces (“Moz”) of gold (“Au”) (112.5 M tonnes at 0.63 g/t) and an Inferred Mineral Resource of 5.453 Moz of Au (280.6 M tonnes at 0.60 g/t ) (as defined in the Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy and Petroleum (“CIM”) Definition Standards for Mineral Resources & Mineral Reserves incorporated by reference into NI 43‑101). The 303 square kilometres (“sq km”) AurMac Project is contiguous with the 417 sq. km. Nitra Project, located 40 km from Mayo, Yukon. The AurMac Project is transected by the main Yukon highway and benefits from a 3-phase powerline, existing power station and cell phone coverage.
