Geological Summary |
The Stirling property is underlain by a northeast trending belt of marine and continental volcanic and sedimentary rocks belonging to the Upper Triassic Nicola Group. These rocks have been effectively divided into three subparallel belts by two persistent north trending, high angle fault systems. Massive hematite, controlled by and localized in fractures and occurring in association with limonite and malachite, is the pre- dominant mineralization exposed on the property. In several locations, late stage quartz-hematite-limonite veining has been superimposed on this mineralization. Precious metal mineralization is associated with this hydrothermal veining.
