Geological Summary |
THE GERIMI PROPERTY IS SITUATED IN THE CENTRAL PART OF THE QUESNEL TROUGH. IN THE PROSPECT REGION, THE MESOZOIC TAKLA GROUP, COMPRISING SUBMARINE VOLCANIC ROCK AND BRECCIA TOGETHER WITH THEIR DERIVED SEDIMENTARY UNITS, DISCONTIN- UOUS CARBONATE HORIZONS, AND MARINE SEDIMENTS, IS DOMINANT. THE MAJOR NORTHWEST TREND OF THE QUESNEL BELT STRATIGRAPHY IS INTERRUPTED BY SYSTEMS OF NORTHWESTERLY TRENDING BLOCK FAULTS. COMPLEX INTRUSIVE STOCKS AND SILLS OF QUARTZ MONZONITE, DIORITE AND SYENITE INTRUDE THE VOLCANIC ROCKS AND SEDIMENTS OF THE TAKLA GROUP. THE AREA IS BLANK- ETED WITH TILL. A GEOPHYSICAL ANOMALY PROBABLY REFLECTS STRATA-CONTROLLED PYRITIC VOLCANIC ROCKS.
