| Geological Summary |
The Upper Triassic and Lower Jurassic volcanic and sedimentary succession of the Vancouver and Bonanza Groups underlie the area. Porphyry dykes believed to be linked to the Rupert stock extend east from Rupert Inlet. From south to north the underlying succession dipping gently southward, from top to bottom, is the Bonanza Group pyroclastic volcanics, Parsons Bay Formation calcareous siltstones, shales and limestone with shaly interbeds, Quatsino Formation limestone and Karmutsen Formation amygdaloidal basalt.
