Ashburton Ventures Inc. (TSXV:ABR) announced that it has started preparations for 2014 exploration at its Yukon-based Spy and Ultra platinum-group metals claim groups. Both have lithologies similar to that of Wellgreen Platinum Ltd.’s (TSXV:WG) Wellgreen polymetallic property.

As quoted in the press release:

The Company has engaged Aurora Geosciences Inc. (Whitehorse, YK) to conduct rock physics tests on grab samples from both properties, which will include magnetism, density and conductivity tests. The same tests will also be conducted on samples from the Wellgreen deposit, as well as samples provided by the Yukon Geological Survey. Aurora will then re-assess data from historic ground and airborne geophysical surveys conducted over the properties, using the new rock physics data to prioritize areas of potential PGM mineralization. The priority areas will be the focus of additional sampling, trenching and drilling in the 2014 field season.
