| Geological Summary |
The claim group is underlain by Mesozoic sedimentary, volcanic and intrusive rocks of the Omineca Crystalline Belt. Mineralization consists of pyrite, galena, and sphalerite with traces of pyrrhotite in a gangue of quartz and silicified wallrock. The veins occupy northeasterly trending, steeply dipping shear zones in argillite.
