Geological Summary |
Upper Triassic Sicamous Formation argillites and limestone are underlain by Cambro-Ordovician Silver Creek Formation schists. These formations are intruded by Early Cretaceous(?) mica granites and subsequently capped by Eocene Kamloops Group volcanics. Mineralization occurs along sheeted fracture zones carrying pyrite, arsenopyrite, galena, chalcopyrite, sphalerite, marcasite, argentite, cosalite, flourite and cassiterite.
