Geological Summary
The Amber property is underlain by the eugeosynclinal greywackes, slates and carbonates of the Palaeozoic age Broadview Formation. Late during the second phase of deformation, mineralized veins were emplaced in incompetent sediments in footwall rocks near thrust faults. Between the Amber Thrust and the Mobbs Fault are rocks containing the Upper Juno, Snowstorm, Pine Tree, Silver Sparrow, White Eagle and Lakeview showings - areas which contain quartz veins mineralized with auriferous pyrite, argentiferous galena and sphalerite. West of the Amber Thrust are the West Ridge and North Star showings - areas that contain veins mineralized with galena, stibnite, tetrahedrite and sphalerite.
