| Geology: Predominantly - Early to Late Jurassic Pennask (granodiorite) and Osprey Lake (granite) batholiths. Large pendant Late Triassic Nicola Gp. volcanic and sedimentary rocks in northern part of property ( andesitic to basaltic flows and tuffs interspersed with argillite, siltstone and impure limestone). |
|||
| Mineralization: Along major structure, local zones of fracturing and shearing in granitic rocks with rusty clay alteration and occasional quartz carbonate sulphide-veining. Sulphide mineralization mainly pyrite with sparse galena, sphalerite, chalcopyrite and possibly tetrahedrite (?). Quartz veining is locally abundant and most prevalent near the edges of the batholiths. Considerable number of other quartz vein occurences, mainly in altered Nicola rocks on the NE claims. Limonite and hematite are common constituents; overall sulphide contents are low; local concentrations of pyrite, pyrrhotite, chalcopyrite, molybdenite, arsenopyrite, galena, sphalerite present |

| Work: Previous Work includes soil and stream sample geochem work with over 8000 samples; aeromag survey on a portion of the property ( Williams and Lightning Creek Mining, 1966) Reconnaissance and grid soil sampling (6410 samples) , 1989 and 1990 1994 Grid soil samplings (959 samples) |
|||
| Results: 1996 work found 3 x 1 mile high magnetic relief and further investigation was recommended but never followed up on.BCGS geochem sampling places five anomalys for AU/CU/MO on the property that rank in the greater than 95th percentile category. Several stream sediment sites with Au up to 405 ppb and Soil sample sites with 720 ppb Au straddle the lineament. Quatrz-sulphide vein float near some of these sites yielded up to 1680 ppb Au, 87.0 ppm (2.5 oz/ton) Ag Grab samples showings on NE property returned many significant Au values ranging from 0.03 up to 8.5 oz/T. 1989 and 1990 soils samples showed, outlining several strong Au trends containing many sites with values greater than 50 ppb, up to a high of 680 ppb Au. 1994 soil samples located 30 sites of anomalous Au (20 to 610 ppb), and a 55 sites with threshold values of 10-20 ppb |
