Geological Summary |
Siltstone, sandstone and greywacke of the Salmon River Formation has been folded into a canoe-shaped trough overlying volcanics of the Lower Jurassic Unuk River Formation. Both units have been intruded by the Glacier Creek augite porphyry and by a satellite stock of quartz monzonite of the Tertiary Hyder Batholith. High-grade lenses of argentiferous mineralization occur in quartz-breccia sulphide veins cutting the siltstones, accompanied by lead-zinc values.
