ANDERSON LAKE/BRETT MINEAu LODE BRITISH COLUMBIA
Geology:
On the Cadwallader Break ; Mississippian to Jurassic Bridge River Complex (Group) argillite, slate, tuffs and minor limestone; intruded by Cretaceous to Tertiary Bendor pluton grano- diorite tongues and stocks. Slates are schistose and fissured in all directions.
Mineralization:
Sphalerite, irregular, ribboned quartz-ankerite vein, averaging 4 to 7 m wide, striking north and dipping steeply west; conformable to the black slates and interbedded carbonaceous phyllite. Visible gold concentrated locally ; is occasionally coarse. Pyrite is the main sulphide in the vein, with some arsenopyrite, chalcopyrite, sphalerite and sparse galena. Alteration includes sericite, mariposite, calcite and ankerite.
Work:
Mine worked from 1900 to 1904, 1908 to 1910, 1929 to 1934, 1947 to 1953 & 1962.
Total reported drifting on the vein (not including cross-cutting) ~720 m on 6 levels. Two of the levels were connected with an 82 m raise.

1962:  2.4 m channel sample (Ministry of Mines and Petroleum Resources)
No modern exploration reported on the property.
Results:
21.4 kg Au reported extracted from 9177 tonnes of vein material with majority of production from "49er" level (second lowest level). Assuming 50% recovery from stamp mill, this production yeilds a reported headgrade of about 4.7 g/t Au.

2.4-m channel sample from "49er" level assayed four times gave:
1,145 g/t Au and 528 g/t Ag
5.8 g/t Au and trace Ag
293g/t Au and 65.14 g/t Ag
2.06 g/t Au and 3.42 g/t Ag

Averaging = 2.4 m interval of 361 g/t Au and 149.2 g/t Ag. Based on his collection of 13 samples from an 18 m section of the second lowest level, engineer authoring the study estimated the mineralized section of this vein to average 7.5 g/t Au over 1.6 m.
