Sold for $1,285,000

Property Features:

Here is your chance to step into a dream come true – the opportunity to own a highly productive gold mine. This property spans two secluded deeded lots, with the more considerable 2.1-acre lot featuring a recently renovated three-bedroom, two-bathroom home. Enjoy breathtaking vistas of the Cariboo Mountains from this house, which is move-in ready with a remodelled kitchen, modern appliances, a propane stove, and numerous updates. The adjacent 1.1-acre lot remains undeveloped, offering further expansion or development potential. Given the strong demand for rentals in the area, this residence presents excellent leasing opportunities. Plus, with a school bus stop at the end of your driveway and a short 6km drive to Likely's town center, convenient access to schools, local pubs, restaurants, and outdoor adventures is assured.

The Mining Proposition:

One of the most remarkable aspects of this property is its wealth of gold mine assets. It includes 39 cells with 17 tenure numbers and one legacy claim, encompassing an expansive 1800 acres on both sides of the Quesnel River. All claims and permits are fully transferable, opening up endless possibilities. Only 8-9 acres of the approximately 1800-acre bench of land have been mined, yielding a remarkable gold return of 1 ounce per 80-100 yards. The biggest nuggets are just under 1/2 an ounce. With favourable test results and extensive untapped terrain, years of prosperous mining lie ahead. 

Two areas are selected for mining for the upcoming year with two wash plants in place.

 The $20,000.00 bond for the mine is in place, and the responsibility for obtaining a new bond and transferring the permits will pass to the new owner. An archaeological study, recommended by First Nations, has been conducted and approved in 2023, with no evidence being found.

Equipment:

Embark on your gold mining venture seamlessly, as all necessary equipment is included in this sale. It's a turnkey operation, well-established and thriving. A comprehensive inventory list is provided and listed below.

Because of the high values in marketable timber, an Occupancy Licence to cut / log has been applied for! 

The Allure of Likely:

Likely embodies the enduring spirit of the Cariboo Gold Rush era, boasting the remarkable Bullion Pit mine and the serene Quesnel Lake, teeming with diverse fish species. Likely offers an enriching experience, from observing salmon migrations to exploring the historic ghost town of Quesnel Forks. Recreational opportunities abound, with hunting expeditions and nature escapades right at your doorstep.

Investment Perspective:

This property isn't just an investment; it's a legacy. With only a fraction of the land having been mined, the potential for continued or multi-generational gold mining is immense. With gold valuations hovering around $2,000.00 US per ounce, the financial prospects are as bright as the precious metal itself. Seize this unparalleled opportunity and turn your dreams into tangible gold. Dive into a prosperous tomorrow.

Location and Size:

Nestled just 95 kilometres from Williams Lake in the charming community of Likely, BC, this expansive 3.2-acre property sits at the confluence of the west arm of Quesnel Lake and the Quesnel River. It is a strategic junction connecting Williams Lake, Quesnel, Horsefly, and Barkerville roads.
