An old iron safe discovered by construction workers digging up part of downtown Dawson City, Yukon, is generating a lot of curiosity.

"Everybody wants to know what's inside, but we checked with Yukon government heritage resources and the local museum and neither of those people seem to be interested in it," said Mark Dauphinee, superintendent of public works in Dawson City.

"So I guess it falls to us and we're going to see what we're going to do to open it."

Juggernaut Exploration Ltd. (JUGR.V) reports that it has commenced diamond drilling with the addition of a second rig for the Midas property located near Terrace, British Columbia, Canada. The IP geophysical program on its Midas property is also underway.

Based on new exploration results Juggernaut is ramping up the drilling with the construction of up to 20 pads across both properties targeting multiple new discovery zones with up to three or more holes per pad. ...

Dan Stuart, director, president, and CEO of Juggernaut, says: "The 2018 program is off to a great start and has already exceeded our expectations with multiple new mineralized zones being discovered so early on, further demonstrating the enormous untapped potential of both the Empire and Midas properties. Both properties are 100-percent controlled and located in a world-class geological setting in close proximity to infrastructure. We look forward to reporting drill results once assays have been received, complied, and interpreted." ...

The exterior part of the safe door had fallen off while the interior door is still locked, he said. There are also cracks in the door and there appear to be boxes inside, but no clues as to what they contain.

"We're hoping for big gold bars, but we're a bit more realistic," Dauphinee said. ...
