Geological Summary |
The Boss claims are centred along a regional northwest trending shear characterized by zones of quartz-carbonate alteration in augite porphyry, andesite, etc. Outcrop is sparse. Rocks to the northeast are chert pebble conglomerates (Lower Cretaceous Skeena Group?), rhyolites, andesites and quartz monzonites. These rocks have locally been silicified, cut by quartz veins and have fluorite-filled fractures. To the southwest, rocks are generally bladed feldspar porphyry (Tertiary Ootsa Lake Group?). Anomalous precious metal values are locally associated with the quartz carbonate zones, quartz veins, silicification and fluorite.
