Geological Summary |
The Upper Triassic and Lower Jurassic volcanic and sedimentary succession of the Vancouver and Bonanza Groups underlie the area. The Jurassic porphyritic granodioritic Rupert Stock underlies the southern half of the survey area with the contact south of hole R-17 which intersected Parson Bay sediments. Two main anomaly groupings resulted from the survey with predominately base metal, multielement anomalies on the west side around hole R-17 and single element base metal and gold anomalies on the east side of the survey area. A nearby source of the anomalies associated with the Rupert Stock boundary is suggested.
