Work History
Staked as Hunt cl (Y93603) in Sep/75 by P.S. White, who explored with trenching in 1976. Restaked as Chow cl (YB11819) in Feb/88 by Del Norte Chrome Corp.
The southeast side was staked as part of a large block of Kepi cl (YB11118) in Jan/88 by Welcome North ML, which explored with airborne mag/EM surveys, prospecting, mapping and geochem sampling later in the year.
Capsule Geology
Magnetic and resistivity data suggest that the claims are probably underlain by Eocene rhyolite and basalt along the Tintina Fault Zone, flanked by Paleozoic metasedimentary rocks.
