Capsule

Work History

Staked as 174 Bojo cl (YA20239) in Jun/77 by Cyprus Anvil and Hudson's Bay O & GL, which explored with airborne mag and EM survey and grid soil sampling and mapping in 1977 and ground mag and EM surveys in 1978.
In Jun/94 Cominco Ltd. staked the Pin cl 1-29 (YB49923) 8 km south and the Neck cl 1-71 (YB49923) 6.5 km southwest of the anomaly.

Capsule Geology

The claims were staked in a totally overburden-covered area to cover three coincident airborne EM-magnetic anomalies outlined by an Input survey and covering an area of projected Anvil-type stratigraphy. Rocks to the north consist of limestone and black calcareous shale of Paleozoic age while to the south, two-mica schist, calc-silicate and black to grey phyllite with metabasite interbeds were noted. The ground surveys outlined two coincident mag-EM targets.
