Geology Comments

Dec 07, 2005 (P Beach) - Quartz carbonate vein breccia in granite and metabasalt. The mineralized zone appears to strike N65W to W, and to dip 80S. The zone has been traced by trenching for a length of 200 feet, is 2-3 feet wide, and has been intersected in drilling to a depth of 145 feet. The core has not been sampled. Only sparse chalcopyrite is present in surface exposures.
