Geological Summary
The claims are underlain by metamorphic rocks of the Ecstall Pendant, Central Gneiss Complex of possible Early Paleozoic-Early Mesozoic age. Metamorphic grade is greenschist to amphibolite. The property surrounds the Ecstall massive sulphide deposit and is underlain by favourable metavolcanic rocks hosting that deposit. Foliation and bedding strike northerly; dips are steep to the east or west.
