Exploration History

Two pits were sunk on this lot apparently to examine some quartz veins though it is not stated what the target mineral was. S.B. Lumbers took grab samples from both pits in 1969 to assay for gold and silver. Both assays reportedly, failed to produce any values for either mineral (Res Geol. 1986, Field Rpt.).

Geology Comments

Dec 07, 2005 (D Laidlaw) - The area consists of mafic metavolcanics with quartz carbonate veining. Both the metavolcanics and the veins are barren of any visible mineralization though the quartz shows iron staining in many instances (Res. Geol. 1986, Field Rpt).
