Geological Summary
Rocks of the Upper Jurassic Dewdney Creek Group underlie the entire property. This group consists mainly of interbedded volcanic sandstone, volcanic conglomerate, volcanic breccia (agglomerate) and lesser tuffs and tuffaceous argillite. Attitudes range from north 30-40 degrees west, dip 50-60 degrees east, to north 10-20 degrees west, dip 60 degrees west, indicating a synclinal fold at the western edge of the claim. A number of diorite sills and dykes are present within the sedimentary package.
