Geological Summary |
Triassic to Jurassic Kunga Formation sediments are in fault contact with Triassic Karmutsen Formation basalt. Six gold showings have been outlined in silicified zones containing pyrite-arsenopyrite mineralization adjacent to or within dacite to rhyolite dykes. Grab samples assayed up to 23.4 grams of gold per tonne and chip samples as high as 8.3 grams of gold per tonne over 1.5 metres. An arsenic-gold soil anomaly 2 kilometres by 400 metres large includes four soil samples anomalous in platinum and palladium.
