Work History
Staked as Mic and Zora cl (Y17260) in Dec/66 by J.C. Turner and transferred to Grandora EL. Restaked as Nowa cl (YA55548) in Jul/80 by CUB JV (Cassiar Res L, Highland-Crow Res L and Union Carbide), which performed limited mapping and sampling later in the year.
Capsule Geology
Minor chalcopyrite is associated with localized garnet-diopside-magnetite skarn along the contact between a Cretaceous batholith and limestone and dolomite of probable Cretaceous age.
