Capsule
Work History
Staked as Sands cl (YA8420) in Nov/76 by N. Bickish. A large block of Ran cl (YB9935) was staked to the south in Nov/87 by Prime Capital Corp and optioned to Wildfire Res L, which staked more claims and performed soil sampling, plus Landsat and orthophoto surveys in 1988.
The Ran cl were transferred to A. Carlos in Feb/93.
Capsule Geology
The 1976 claims are situated on a lakeshore and are probably underlain by Paleocene sedimentary rocks. They were possibly staked to protect surface rights.
The 1987 claims cover possible strike extensions of the Tertiary sedimentary and volcanic rocks at the Grew occurrence (Minfile 105K 009) which is located farther to the northwest along the Tintina Fault.
