Geological Summary
More than 300 million tonnes of high purity dolomite is present in the Lower Cambrian Badshot Formation about 100 kilometres north of Revelstoke, BC. Enclosing rocks include Proterozoic to Lower Paleozoic phyllites and slates of the Horsethief Creek, Hamill, and Lardeau Groups. The western contact of the Badshot Formation and Lardeau Group has many small pods and lenses of talc magnesite schist. Although highly deformed, the beds generally dip gently to the west or north.
