Work History

Staked as Droc cl (YA925) in Sep/76 by Utah ML, which performed mapping and sampling in 1976 and 1977. Restaked as Eve cl (YA99622) in December 1986 by Mountain Province Mg Inc, which performed mapping and geochemical sampling in 1987 and 1988 and added more Eve cl in October 1989, and March 1990.

Capsule Geology

Chalcopyrite and traces of galena and sphalerite occur in a quartz-pyrite-siderite-rich zone in Upper Cambrian and Ordovician phyllite and carbonate near the contact with Mississippian felsic volcanic rocks. Selected specimens assayed as high as 3% Cu.
