Geological Summary
THE CLAIMS ARE SITUATED IN THE MESOZOIC AGE TYAUGHTON-METHOW BASIN AND ARE CAPPED BY A SUCCESSION OF MIOCENE AGE PLATEAU BASALTS. THE PRESENCE OF REALGAR IN CONJUNCTION WITH INTRUSIVE ROCKS AND INTENSE SILICA-CLAY ALTERATION SUGGESTS POTENTIAL FOR AN AURIFEROUS HYDROTHERMAL DEPOSIT. PERCUSSION DRILLING ALONG A REALGAR-BEARING ALTERATION ZONE EXPOSED AT SURFACE FAILED TO RETURN SIGNIFICANT PRECIOUS METAL ASSAYS.
