| INDIAN CHIEF-PRINCE | Cu Ag Au | SKARN / SHEAR | BRITISH COLUMBIA |
| Geology: Upper Triassic Vancouver Gp.limestones and volcanic rocks roof pendant intruded by Jurassic-aged granodioritic rocks. Major northwest faulting occurs along the contact of the two rock types. |
|||
| Mineralization: Magnetite, chalcopyrite, bornite and pyrite in shear zones within the skarn altered limestone near the intrusive contact. Skarn occurs within the pendant. Prince occurence: magnetite, chalcopyrite and bornite infissures and shear zones in altered limestone; outcrops some 230 m in elevation above Indian Chief workings. | |||
| Work: 1904: Indian Chief underwent limited intermittent production from 3 main underground levels; small winze and drift along with surface trenching (70 metres) on Prince prospect 1938: last known production; |
|||
| Results:
Total historic production about 76,600 tonnes; approximate grade was 1.4% Cu, 22 g/t Ag and 0.3 g/t Au. 1962 (assessment report 462) indicates mineralized zone may approximate about 1.7 million tonnes of 1.5% Cu plus magnetite. |
|||
| Property Details & Access:
387 hectares Access by boat from Ucluelet or Tofino some 40 km SE or by helicopter from Gold River 30 km to the N |
|||
| Detail Location: NTS 092E. UTM 695000E and 5480500N Alberni M.D. 30 kms S of Gold River. |
|||
| Other Comments: No modern geohysical exploration methods are known to have been carried out on the property. Potential for additional tonnage exists over the 1.5 km distance between the Indian Chief and Prince. Mineralization is open at depth and to the north Minfile occurrences 092E 011 and 032. |
