Geologist: D Guidon
Notes: Property visited August 1999 with Chantal Jolette. Used Lovell's geology map to try to find pits. Followed road from south side of Errett Lake northwest along west side of lake. Looked for pits shown on map but did not find any. Sample location plots out on trend of mineralixation. Sample of exposed rock with disseminated pyrite in massive medium grain mafic volcanic.
