Snowline Gold is a Yukon Territory focused gold exploration company with a seventeen-project portfolio. The company is exploring its flagship Rogue gold project in the highly prospective yet underexplored Selwyn Basin. Snowline’s project portfolio sits within the prolific Tintina Gold Province, host to multiple million-ounce-plus gold mines and deposits including Kinross’ Fort Knox Mine, Newmont’s Coffee deposit, and Victoria Gold’s Eagle Mine. The company’s first-mover position and extensive database provide a unique opportunity for investors to be part of multiple discoveries and the creation of a new gold district.
