Geological Summary
THE CLAIMS ARE UNDERLAIN BY METAVOLCANICS AND METASEDIMENTS OF THE ECSTALL PENDANT, WITHIN PLUTONS OF THE COAST CRYSTALLINE COMPLEX AND ARE OF POSSIBLE EARLY PALEOZOIC TO EARLY MESOZOIC AGE. METAMORPHIC GRADE IS GREENSCHIST TO AMPHIBOLITE FACIES. DISSEMINATED PYRITE OCCURS IN FELSIC TUFFS WHICH ARE ALONG STRIKE WITH THE "MINE SERIES" HOSTING THE ECSTALL MASSIVE SULPHIDE DEPOSIT, SOME TWO KILOMETRES NORTH. FOLIATION AND BEDDING STRIKE NORTHERLY; DIPS ARE STEEPLY EAST. GEOPHYSICAL SURVEYS DETECTED SEVERAL STRONG HLEM CONDUCTORS AND MAGNETIC FEATURES.
