Big discoveries

As the founder of the Ogilvie Joint Venture, with financial partners Brinco Ltd. (Canadian subsidiary of Rio Tinto) and Mitsubishi Metals, Clyde discovered the Jason zinc-lead-silver deposit in Yukon, Canada. The current owner, Fireweed Metals, continues to expand the deposit and make new discoveries in the area.

Exploration Geology

Following a comprehensive hands-on study of the major stratiform Zn-Pb-Ag sedex deposits in the world, Clyde’s geologic mapping identified an overburden-covered geologic environment at Jason with potential for a stratiform deposit.

Drilling Management

Clyde targeted the discovery drill hole, then managed four subsequent drill campaigns, resource calculations, and a feasibility study by Bechtel Corporation.
