The 1,766-hectare Texas project is located in the Greenwood Mining District in Southern BC, in a place known as the Beaverdell mining camp. This area was a centre of extractive operations from the late 1890s to the early 1900s.

According to Troubadour, the property covers ground prospective for vein-hosted precious metal deposits, based on at least seven historical and newly discovered gold occurrences and geological comparisons with the nearby Beaverdell Mine.
The miner reports that several showings are present on the project, including two old mines and many older trenches, pits and adits that expose mineralized veins.
“The Beaverdell mining camp is predominately known for its silver production and the presence of high-grade gold occurrences makes the Texas property unique and significantly more attractive,” Troubadour Resources said in a media statement. “Two recent grab samples from the Doorn vein [at Texas] assayed 241.96 g/t Au and 78.84 g/t Au, 319 g/t Ag and 8% Cu.”
The company also said that it intends to mobilize a field crew in the coming weeks to complete detailed sampling and mapping in preparation for an inaugural drill program that will focus on the Doorn and Cabin targets.
