Geological Summary |
The Mt. Washington area is comprised of Triassic Karmutsen volcanics overlain by sediments of the Cretaceous Comox Formation. Breccia pipes of various sizes and possible ages pierce both formations and are diversely mineralized. Gently west dipping unusually continuous structures accompanied by alterations and silicification form the host for the gold, silver, arsenic mineralization.
