2011 YUKON Expedition :
Home of The Straw Lake Beach Gold Mine :
Shotgun Exploration was successfull in finding small amounts of placer Gold in the Yukon this fall (2011).
We will return to the Yukon next spring (2012) for a 6-week expedition to test the feasability of a large scale placer Gold operation. If successfull, Shotgun Exploration has the resources and equipment to start a placer Gold operation and maintain it for several years.
