Six gold and silver-bearing friable quartz veins cut Upper Cretaceous Coast Plutonic Complex granodiorite and extend a short distance into adjacent Lower Cretaceous Taylor Creek Group meta- volcanics. Quartz veins vary in width from 0.3 metres to 7.5 metres and are exposed for up to 225 metres strike length. The veins occur in shears that extend a considerable distance into the metavolcanics. Mineralization consists of pyrite and minor chalcopyrite; galena and hessite have been reported. The veins have strong and pervasive sericitized alteration envelopes.
