Work History
Staked as Gull cl (YA33796) in Jul/78 by DC Synd (Dome & Cominco), which performed mapping and geochem sampling later in the year.
Capsule Geology
Sphalerite and minor galena occur in a skarn zone developed in carbonate beds within a Carboniferous clastic sequence (Yukon Tanana Terrane) near the contact of the Cretaceous Seagull Batholith. A selected specimen assayed 9.8% Zn, 0.1% Pb and 10.3 g/t Ag.
