Capsule

Work History

Staked as Tim cl (Yl7883) in Jul/67 by Atlas EL, which performed mag, EM and geochem surveys later in the year.

Capsule Geology

Claims were staked on a zinc geochem anomaly which coincides with an aeromagnetic anomaly. Preliminary surveys have shown that minor amounts of lead-zinc-copper mineralization occur in skarn.
