'HARD AT WORK' NOW AT SILVERADO'S NOLAN CREEK GOLD AND ANTIMONY OPERATION
| The current photos on the left, taken July, 2008, highlight Silverado 'hard at work', as the company continues to consistently develop its Nolan Creek operation, drilling the vein from the surface, as well as developing underground. The photos follow the 'ongoing process', that is, drilling, drill core assessment, surface studies, as well as heavy equipment in operation, the Silverado crew 'hard at work', and a brief look at the people and natural setting at Silverado's Nolan Creek. |
Two NI 43-101 Technical Reports on Silverado's Nolan Creek, and Ester Dome and Eagle Creek properties, can be viewed through links on the 'NEWS' webpage. There are also links on the NOLAN CREEK and ESTER DOME and EAGLE CREEK webpages.
SILVERADO GOLD MINES LTD.
Silverado has committed over three decades of work to the exploration, development and test mining of gold properties throughout North America. In the mid-1980's, the Company decided to focus all its efforts in Alaska. Since then it has sold in total more than $20 Million USD of gold and silver bars and gold nuggets derived from test mining on its property holdings.
Silverado currently has three main Gold projects in Alaska: Nolan Creek Gold and Antimony, Ester Dome Gold and Eagle Creek Gold and Antimony.
SILVERADO GREEN FUEL INC.
Silverado has been working six years with the head of its Green Fuel Division, Dr. Warrack Willson, to develop its low-rank coal-water fuel (LRCWF) technology. This fuel is designed to be made by hydrothermally treating low-rank coals (LRCs), (sub-bituminous, lignitic, and brown coals). Its intended use is as a low cost, non-toxic, non-hazardous and environmentally friendly substitute for petroleum derived fuels used mainly in industrial and utility boilers, gasifiers, and other advanced combustors.
Silverado's LRCWF is designed to be an ideal candidate for use in high pressure liquid fed gasifiers. The product, synthesis gas, may then be converted by any one of a number of commercial Fischer Tropsch processes to yield a myriad of clean fuels and petrochemicals, which are free of sulphur, particulate matter, and heavy metals and can find many applications, including aviation and auto gasoline, diesel, synthetic natural gas, naphtha, fertilizers, ammonia, urea, plastics and many others.
If used to produce hydrogen gas then the hydrogen upon combustion in air can create steam to drive turbines to create electricity while exhausting nitrogen and potable water. The hydrogen may also be used in fuel cell powered cars.
If produced, LRCWF has the potential to reduce the United States' dependence on foreign oil, and move toward energy self sufficiency. In addition, licensing this technology to developing nations has the potential to help diminish the amount of greenhouse gases emitted to the atmosphere worldwide.
