Capsule

Work History

Staked as Nan cl (Y84223) in Jul/75 by Tony Rich, possibly for Vestor EL. Restaked as Sherpa cl (YA57634) in Mar/81 by Gulf Mls L, which performed mapping and geochem sampling later in the year.

Capsule Geology

The claims are underlain by chert and shale which probably belongs to the Ordovician-Silurian Road River Formation. Gulf outlined a large coincident Pb-Zn-Ag-Ba soil anomaly.
