Geological Summary |
MINERALIZATION ON THE PROPERTY COMPRISES NUMEROUS QUARTZ VEINS, STRINGERS AND STOCKWORKS TRENDING IN TWO DOMINANT DIRECTIONS; NORTH- WESTERLY AND NORTH TO NORTHEASTERLY. VEINS VARY FROM A FEW CENTIMETRES TO FOUR METRES WIDE. THEY CONTAIN A VARIETY OF TEXTURES INCLUDING COXCOMB, VUGGY, BANDED, BRECCIAS AND MASSIVE. SULPHIDE CONTENT IS GENERALLY LOW, WITH TRACE TO 1% PYRITE, CHALCOPYRITE, GALENA AND RARE SPHALERITE. COLOUR- LESS, GREEN AND PURPLE FLUORITE IS COMMON. EXTEN- SIVE PROPYLLITE IS ASSOCIATED WITH THE VEINS AND ARGILLIC ALTERATION IS COMMON AS SELVAGES. THE MINERALIZATION IS HOSTED IN LAPILLI TUFFS OF THE LOWER JURASSIC HAZELTON GROUP. THE MINERALIZATION AGE IS LIKELY UPPER-CRETACEOUS-EARLY TERTIARY.
