Geological Summary

The claims are mainly underlain by northwest trending, west- dipping Paleozoic Sicker Group volcanics and sediments. These are overlain by or in fault contact with Upper Triassic Karmutsen Formation basalts on the east and intruded by Lower-Middle Jurassic Island Intrusions to the west. Pyrite occurs in carbonate-sericite alteration zones with quartz veins. Possible skarn mineralization occurs near the contact of Pennsylvanian Buttle Lake Formation limestone and the intrusives.
