Geology Comments

Dec 07, 2005 (P Beach) - Two parallel qtz-cp veins, 400' apart in diabase, strike N70W and dip 90. The south vein appears to be the better mineralized, and has been traced along strike for 1200 feet. Surface sampling of the South vein indicated an average grade of 1.87% Cu over an average width of 7.1 feet, for a length of 732 feet. Subsequent d.d. obtained lower grade copper values over narrower widths. (ODM 1969 MRC 12 p 17).
