Geological Summary
The property covers a contact between the Paleozoic Sicker and Buttle Lake groups and the Triassic Karmutsen Formation on the northeast flank of the Horne Lake-Cowichan uplift or geanticline. The Sicker Group is composed of mafic to intermediate volcaniclastics and cherty tuff. One cherty tuff horizon has been intruded by a quartz diorite sill of the Tertiary Catface Intrusions. East-west trending quartz veins up to 30 centimetres wide occur in chert within a few metres of each side of the sill. The veins are heavily mineralized with pyrite and sphalerite.
