| Geological Summary |
The Mt. Washington area is comprised of Upper Triassic Karmutsen Formation volcanics overlain by sediments of the Upper 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 alteration and silicification form the host for the gold-silver-arsenic mineralization.
