Work History

Staked as Into cl (YA61073) in Jun/81 by DuPont, which performed limited mapping and sampling later in the year.
In Jun/94 B. Carter staked CG cl 1-14 (YB46898) 3 km to the northeast. Later in the month Carter tied Carter Gulch cl 1-2 (YB46934) onto the northern boundary of the CG claims. In Jul/94 Carter added CG cl 15-18 (YB47108) to the southern end of the claim block. Carter prospected in the area in 1993 and carried out a small mapping and sampling program on the CG and Carter Gulch claims in the summer or 1994.

Capsule Geology

The Into claims were staked on a gold geochemical anomaly in an area underlain by Cretaceous granodiorite that intrudes Lower Jurassic Laberge Group clastic sedimentary rocks.
Carter prospected in the area in 1993. Several rock samples collected during this period returned anomalous Au values (highest = 188 ppb) and led Cater to stake his claims. The 1994 exploration program concentrated on quartz veins; 1) cutting silicified andesites and 2) in shear zones. A float sample of rusty and vuggy quartz vein material containing visible gold assayed 143.1 g/t Au, 12770 ppm Pb, 10684 ppm Cu, 1779 ppm As and 25.5 ppm Ag.
