Geological Summary |
Cretaceous flow rocks and tuffs of intermediate to felsic composition are intruded by Coast Range quartz diorite and related feldspar porphyry sills (?) The volcanics lie within a fault-bound wedge at the southern corner of the quartz diorite pluton. Intense fracturing, shearing and pyritization are related to the faults. Erratic and weak copper mineralization occurs in zones of shearing and propylitic alteration adjacent to the porphyritic intrusives. Minor values of gold are associated with small pyritic quartz veins.
