Work History
Staked as Oudder cl 1-16 (YA65867) and cl 17-22 (YA66821), Far cl 1-8 (YA66170) and cl 9-16 (YA66019) and Way cl 1-16 (YA66154) in Jun/81 by the CUB Joint Venture (Brinco Mining Ltd, formerly Cassiar Asbestos Corporation Ltd, Highland-Crow Resources Ltd and Union Carbide Canada Ltd), which performed mapping, geochem and mag surveys later in the year.
Capsule Geology
The claims cover a small granodiorite stock that intrudes Silurian to Lower Devonian Road River Group chert and siltstone and Middle Ordovician Sunblood Formation limestone. Scheelite occurs in soil near the contact but no mineralization was found in place.
