Capsule

Work History

Staked as Wolf cl 1-8 (YA54869) in Jun/80 by B. Asbury who carried out stream and soil sampling later in the month. Asbury added Cub cl 1-8 (YA56429) in Aug/80.

Capsule Geology

The claims are probably underlain by Silurian to Carboniferous silty shales of the Road River Group and/or the Besa River Formation. Asbury identified a small zinc anomaly (up to 3 000 ppm zinc) which may be related to topography.
